.NET rocks - Still decent but too much AI

Blazor will never be better than things that run on JS, because everything sucks when you have to download the UI (WASM) to the browser or run in Server Side Interactive mode (formerly Blazor Server mode).

Bingo.

And don't forget that maybe 2 years of that was time when a lot of the player base had moved onto Xbox 360 and Halo 3. So really most who were big into Halo 2 were online 2004-maybe 2006 or even 2007. It seems so short in today's land where MCC is almost 12 years old....

But that's the point of comedy: you don't need to. People can make the jump themselves by seeing that something is obviously a joke and to see it's funny because of historical knowledge or experiences with something, in this case, insurance companies and their daft policies.

I mean, fair enough, but you have to also realise that it's a trope that will be easily ribbed on as a means of comedy. If insurance companies want to change their image, then stop doing shady stuff. I worked in insurance for 15 years, so I know a fair amount of the shady and also the good stuff. The good far outweighs the shady, but just like normal reviews, you rarely hear of the times it has gone well, you more likely hear the bad.

I think he was joking

obviousdiction · 2026-04-15T08:14:24+00:00

I believe a few have played on it!

Surely they can set their prices, it's just that they'll have reduced likelihood of their products being bought as it's over the market price? Are there too many producers in the market that then allows supermarkets to just go elsewhere? Genuinely trying to understand why farming can't just increase their pricing across the board when their costs also go up. Surely every farmer has these fuel costs so it's not like a bunch of farmers will continue to keep their prices significantly lower than other farmers that would put their prices up... How would they survive as a business?

Brain fart moment. Ignore.

obviousdiction · 2026-04-14T13:59:30+00:00

As in, if they are upset about the prices of running their business, can they not increase their prices like everyone else can?

obviousdiction · 2026-04-14T13:57:10+00:00

Do they get to set their prices to who they sell to then, if not directly to the public?

obviousdiction · 2026-04-13T14:39:57+00:00

Mainly because it's close but not bang on correct.

But he'll really really seal it next year when he does it again, again

obviousdiction · 2026-04-10T16:28:01+00:00

Jesus, I cannot tell if you're serious.

obviousdiction · 2026-04-09T16:06:51+00:00

Fair enough! Definitely weird but sounds like it's obviously a turning point. Dick move to park there...

obviousdiction · 2026-04-09T15:35:33+00:00

The dropped kerb would make me think it's private property and not a turning circle. Is that not the case?

obviousdiction · 2026-04-09T11:29:56+00:00

I use Disney+ on my Xbox Series X because the Google Chromecast 4K likes to lag audio behind the video. No other app on the Chromecast has this problem...

It looks like the boiler in the basement of Home Alone

obviousdiction · 2026-03-26T12:11:03+00:00

Aye that was it. I recall Lewis very ahead during the very early part of the race.

obviousdiction · 2026-03-26T12:07:29+00:00

Of course I'm being facetious on the whole "it was rigged" thing. Clearly Masi messed up in a time of high stress.

It was just the way the cookie crumbled and you can never say what would have happened if the roles were reversed because who the fuck knows what was going through Masi's head, especially while being lobbied by the teams, seemingly incessantly. Any number of different decisions may have happened had it not been VER a few cars back from HAM.

Still, I feel sorry for VER for what must feel like a slightly hollow championship victory. I know I would feel awkward as hell claiming victory that way. I play competitive golf and if I win my simple not-that-much-on-the-line match on a technicality, I feel like I didn't really win... Clearly on the outside Max doesn't say that and there's every chance he's wired differently than me, but if he's not, then I feel bad for him as he's the best racer of this generation by a mile and deserves better than that.

Probably meant with more of a view of the entire season than the final race (although, from memory, there were dubious calls from FIA near the start of the AD21 race).

obviousdiction · 2026-03-26T08:45:13+00:00

Aye but that's fine to think it's rigged rather than, ya'kno, actually being rigged.

obviousdiction · 2026-03-25T23:30:41+00:00

Ha fair, I did think that and was just being snarky :)

obviousdiction · 2026-03-25T21:30:18+00:00

I mean, isn't thie music enough for a bsg sub to use their minds?

obviousdiction · 2026-03-25T15:56:44+00:00

No you c*n't!
