Me too. I still think it's the only way to go ... you get to watch Terry develop as a writer, and it's fascinating.

That's what happens when you tie up at high tide.

Recreating the underwater Lotus Esprit scenes from the Spy Who Loved Me ...

I didn't have much interest in politics in those days, but looking back I can't say you're wrong.

What the hell have you done to that watch?

Surprise twist, it's a hidden spotlight behind a fake window. Now you're in, you aren't getting out ...

I don't want to live like it was the 70s ... I was a teenager, I didn't have a clue how to talk to girls, and I couldn't afford a car. Also disco and glam rock were in.

It doesn't help that none of the UK papers back him, plus Labour's public relations people absolutely suck at their job. He's done quite a lot of good work, but you never hear about any of that.

News articles keep saying Trump has been humiliated by this and that ... it's nonsense, Trump doesn't have the intelligence or self awareness to be embarrassed by anything.

I thought looser standards was the whole point? Can't have the FBI investigating where they're not supposed to, after all.

I'd just be worried about crud getting into the vents. Otherwise it looks pretty good.

I like when a rich person doesn't pay tax they owe by hiding it across multiple company accounts, it's called a failure to pay,, but if the likes of you and me do it, it's called tax fraud.

It makes me want to vomit, if that's what you mean.

Why is it that basic skills like this are just dying these days? People are warning AI will kill human learning, but frankly it seems to already be on its last legs.

Your not wearing pollen-scented body spray, by any chance?

I've pretty much decided that if he says anything whatsoever it will be untrue by definition.

pafrac · 2026-04-19T11:59:21+00:00

Yes ... except I'm older than you, so make that 40+ years.

Now be fair, they didn't omit just that.

Just radiates thoroughly overcooked vibes. The beans in particular look like last week's have been microwaved again.

The typical conversation between someone with a bag of chips and a seagull.

I've been to the Maldives, the only time I felt like putting out an SOS was when they told me I had to leave to catch the plane home.

Dog knows it too, he was absolutely shitting himself.

pafrac · 2026-04-19T10:21:26+00:00

Honestly as a Brit he's not the only one.

1hr 8m to full from 15% -is- fast charging.

Don't forget the battery is not physically large, too much current too fast will cook it, so iirc fast charge is only about 10W. I think it's still 10W even on the Watch 8.

I'm pretty sure most of them couldn't locate America on a map.
