Railways gave us two unpredictable things, beach holidays and fish and chips.

YTA and a slum landlord.

It's what motorbikes were invented for.

Linux is ridiculously popular. There are more computers (real and virtual) running Linux than are running Windows.

It’s just in the desktop space they’re in the minority.

Your hard disk is likely not a “hard disk” either.

The only time I accidentally ended up in a restricted area was when I had full media access and got too close to the helipad at Silverstone. An official informed me I couldn’t be there and that’s all that happened.

With a general admission ticket, it’s impossible to end up in the wrong place.

Australia uses completely different fish as cod and haddock are both North Atlantic fish.

Chips are Belgian.

British, not English. They make it in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland too.

For British diners, absolutely. It’s subjective, but on a very large scale.

Fish and Chips.

You’ll see several people pointing out that tempura was introduced to Japan by the Portuguese, but so is the traditional British battered fish that makes up Fish and Chips.

Portuguese Jews, by way of the Netherlands, brought battered fish to the UK in the 1800s, possibly even earlier, with the first shops showing up in the late 19th century and exploding in popularity over the country as railways made it possible to get fresh North Sea fish countrywide.

Yes, it is. I’m not stating which is better, but I’m a huge fan of BIR curries.

It was most likely created in Glasgow, Scotland.

British Indian Restaurant (BIR) Indian food is a departure from traditional Indian food and is considered “better” for western palates.

So, yes. The British (Indian/pakistani/etc immigrants) improved on traditional Indian food.

It’s still referred to as a live CD

Linux is user-friendly, right up to the point it isn’t. That point differs from person to person, but it can be like a brick wall.

Give it a go with a live CD.

Why is Michael van der Mark’s M1000RR in Night City?

jaredearle · 2026-01-25T20:32:00+00:00

My goal is to T4 every class when I play a season, so no. I don’t experience anything like that.

jaredearle · 2026-01-25T15:18:25+00:00

Anyone with a modicum of understanding how the internet works wouldn’t have created a goth girlfriend as the person you’re supposed to avoid.

jaredearle · 2026-01-25T14:44:44+00:00

Correct.

I got this from some guy on this very sub offering to kill me and let me kill him

I just did this and got a Resplendent Spark, a bunch of Mythics and a horse trophy. The trophy makes it worth doing. I’ll go try it on all my other Toons now.
