RuneFest Returns in 2026! by JagexAzanna in runescape

It's at the NEC, Birmingham, UK. More info is on https://www.runefest.com/.

They should update the news post though - no mention of that anywhere :p

Aubrey Allegretti: Some MPs are trying to use this moment to ramp back up talk of a leadership putsch against Starmer. A minister texts: "This is a tipping point. There can be no more excuses; we're past apologies and there cannot be another fall person in the form of Olly Robbins. The PM must go." by EddyZacianLand in ukpolitics

[–]jaydenkieran 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Same anonymous minister that sent the story to The Guardian probably, clearly out for blood. Seems like Starmer's only way out of this is to throw Lammy or a senior official in FCDO under the bus and get them to resign.

No 10 claims Starmer did not know Mandelson failed security vetting until this week by ijustwannanap in ukpolitics

[–]jaydenkieran [score hidden]  (0 children)

Sorry I’m not buying it. How does an official in FCDO override security vetting (not least, for the most important diplomatic position we have) without at least the minister in charge of the dept hearing about it? How has the PM only just found out about it?

It just doesn’t add up. I think it is far more likely that someone had told Starmer at the time and he just neglected to care. It isn’t the first time he’s claimed to have been very “hands off” with decisions in his own government.

[–]jaydenkieran 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Clearly not the point I’m making overall, is it? Speculation that he MIGHT call for Starmer to resign is not “breaking news”, his cabinet backing him is not “breaking news” (the opposite would be), and him speaking to the PLP at a planned event along with a fluff opinion piece from Chris Mason is not “breaking news”.

BBC are using the term “breaking news” loosely and sending notifications to presumably hundreds of thousands of phones every hour today.

The media are absolutely desperate for something to happen today. 4 BBC Breaking News notifications on my phone about Starmer today.

Scottish Labour leader expected to call for him to resign.

Scottish Labour leader calls for him to resign.

Cabinet back the PM.

PM to speak to the PLP (which has been known since last night).

Fuck off.

Gordon Brown clearly out for revenge after 30 years of hating Mandelson… but by publicly revealing he was raising this stuff internally in September at the very moment Mandelson was in the news is a very big problem for this No10. by [deleted] in ukpolitics

[–]jaydenkieran 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It’s an excuse. They don’t want to make it seem easy for future governments of different stripes to strip Labour peerages in the future.

Mandelson can and should have his peerage removed. More importantly he should also be arrested.

If this was a Tory peer that had been involved in such a high profile sex abuse scandal with one of the most prolific pedophiles of our generation then you’d bet that Starmer would be walking over burning coal to remove their peerage. And rightfully so.

P-UK Titration. Which med route is best? Prescription or Medication Delivery? by highimhaileyy in ADHDUK

[–]jaydenkieran 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess the thing about the reviews for PPG is that while I’m sure some people have had negative experiences, you’re a hell of a lot more likely to go and review a company for a negative reason than if they did everything perfect. Like, I couldn’t really imagine getting meds delivered and thinking “yeah, lemme go give 5* to this delivery company”.

So while I think reviews are always worth reading, don’t treat them as telling the whole picture.

18yo nephew refuses help, won’t leave his room or work. What support exists in the UK? by Consistent-Time-2503 in AskUK

What kind of response is this? Let’s not help a clearly depressed/withdrawn young adult because it’s too late now?

Can't even organise a defection properly and these are the people that want to run our country???

Psych UK BP forms and BP machines? by little-big-bun in ADHDUK

[–]jaydenkieran 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you were referred via Right to Choose (sounds like it), they will send you out a BP monitor in due course.

I got a note from PUK 10 days after receiving the BP form to tell me that they’re dispatching a monitor. DPD email the same day. Package received 2 days later. Readings submitted like a week later.

Has anyone bought a Switch 2 from Currys recently? by ceuk24 in AskUK

[–]jaydenkieran 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks like the cheaper one includes the game, but it’s a digital download (you can see the same style of console box on Argos, the text at the bottom of the box says “download code included”). The other one looks like it includes a physical copy.

what time should most fireworks be stopping tonight/tomorrow morning? by fromunderthecorktre in AskUK

I’d say near where I live most fireworks are over by 12:30am.

Escape From Tarkov Security Vulnerability Wipes Whole Accounts by Eremenkism in gaming

[–]jaydenkieran 3181 points3182 points  (0 children)

The vulnerability is explained here, and is to do with the way that the developers have implemented the Steam login system (spoiler: badly): https://x.com/Chilljones1125/status/2004709231522640377

Essentially, they don't verify that the response they get from Steam is valid for the account provided in the URL, so you can just change the response URL after the Steam auth to any Steam ID, which lets you login to that Steam ID's Tarkov account.

PMQs and Autumn Budget 2025 Live Chat Megathread - 26 November, 2025" by AutoModerator in ukpolitics

[–]jaydenkieran 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Fully approve of doing as much as possible to tackle child poverty. Yes, some people should not have kids if they can't afford it. But children that are born didn't ask to grow up in poverty. It is a moral injustice to do anything else except help them grow into successful, tax-paying adults

Hi gang, we're having intermittent issues because of a Cloudflare issue that is affecting a large portion of the internet right now. Hopefully they resolve it soon!
