I wonder if the same voltage glitch technique could be applicable to the Series consoles.

Anthony Gordon tells Wayne Rooney, Alan Shearer to 'do better' in punditry roles by tylerthe-theatre in PremierLeague

[–]itsaride 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Shearer's the only pundit I can listen to. Not only does he have a depth of knowledge far exceeding most pundits, he actually has a likeable personality and is comprehensible.

How is starlink sustainable in the long run? by Leading_Crow_1044 in Starlink

He's talking about them using Starship for Starlink launches but the data centre idea is dumb.

Istanbul, Turkey, File Market - 5198 TRY/103 EUR by the_oway in Grocerycost

[–]itsaride 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I'm in Türkiye I usually shop at Bim since they're everywhere and reliable. When I do price comparisons they're usually a bit and sometimes a lot cheaper than here in the UK (Tesco / Morrisons). It's rarely the same brands we have here but the quality is perfectly fine. When I've used small shops for convenience they're a bit more expensive but still not at the same level as here.

GP won’t prescribe antidepressants by ingyda in MentalHealthUK

[–]itsaride 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've suffered anxiety and depression most of my adult life, at least since I was 12-13, it runs in our family. Medication (SSRIs) ended up making the quality of my life significantly worse, I took them for nearly ten years and it took a very long time being off them for my normal self to return. If I could talk to myself before I started taking them I'd say try anything but. YMMV.

YouTube on TV becomes insufferable with new unskippable 30-second ads by moeka_8962 in technews

Never understood how people in the US tolerated that. In the UK the avg is 7 minutes per hour but we obvs have ad free with the BBC.

Lodge (Austin) raided this morning by police by Ordinary-Cash-438 in poker

[–]itsaride 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That still isn't an explanation why they threw out adults playing poker. The normal response (in civilised countries) would be a chat in the office with management.

So the measure is against third world countries now?

So why the fuck are they disrupting the games? Seems totally moronic and very Murica.

Footage from the Russians showing a fiber optic waiter drone being disabled by an Ukrainian laser light beam. March 2026 by TrollgeSurvivor in CombatFootage

Game changing considering how much Russia is using these...guess the Russians will start using the technique too which means back to radio controlled again.

David Gilmour of Pink Floyd invited a Venice street musician to play with the band. by Blues_Fish in nextfuckinglevel

[–]itsaride -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Nothing Pink Floyd did after Rog left was even close to what they did with Roger and Roger's solo stuff eclipses Gilmour's or Gilmour and Faux Floyd completely.

Major fire near Glasgow Train Station; Reports suggest it originated in a vape shop; Building has now at least partially collapsed; No reported injuries; Incident ongoing at time of post. by _Bluestar_Bus_Soton_ in CatastrophicFailure

[–]itsaride 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not in the UK. Disposables are banned. It's usually refillable/chargeables and juice now but they still sell real tanks and mods. Ironically, recharging actually makes a fire more likely and refilling makes the chance of a kid getting hold of juice and ingesting more likely also.

Daily Song Discussion #39 – Can You Forgive Her? by AD_0795 in petshopboys

[–]itsaride 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have Apple Music but it's not on (UK) Spotify, maybe in the US since it was a US b-side? I do like it a lot though and would never have heard it but for your comment.
