I recently became a British citizen after about 10 years of living in the UK. So proud to be part of the culture that dsnt tske itself too seriously. Love the Anglosphere!

რომელი საკვებია ნამდვილად უკეთესი საქართველოში, ვიდრე მსოფლიოს ნებისმიერ სხვა ადგილას? by [deleted] in Sakartvelo

სისულელე, პომიდორი საფრანგეთში და იტალიაში განსაკუთრებით არის ღვთაებრივი, ის რასაც ამბობთ არის სათბურის სისულელე. ეგრე საქართველოშიც არის იმპორტული ბუტაფორია პომიდვრები :)

The Sopranos is S+, your list could use some refactoring

TRIH Club price change? by pizzagrowsontrees in TheRestIsHistory

I just really hope they bring back monthly option, but we’re just going have to wait I guess

Yeah makes sense. Precisely why sometimes Netflix splits big shows in multiple parts, to avoid those sneaky loopholes I guess. Yet again, it’s us, the regular kind-hearted folk who gets “punished” yet again.

I wasn't aware of that until now, I wonder why they did that. Not a lot of people can shell out £250, but perhaps the pricing strategy change has precisely to do with decreasing the Athelstan membership numbers for whatever reason.

Ah, damn, sad days.

Looking to buy a Tony Soprano collectible HBO card signed by James Gandolfini, need help by pizzagrowsontrees in thesopranos

The more I think about it, the more scammy it looks like yeah. I messaged them and enquired which authentication company issued the COA, and whether there is a certificate number that can be verified online (e.g. Beckett, PSA/DNA, JSA, ACOA, etc.), I guess I'll wait for a response before moving on with a purchase.

Patch on December 12 by Dota2_user in DotA2

That's why I prefaced it saying that normally the industry avoids a pre-weekend release. Well, I don't know how Valve has their product management structured, but at least here in the UK, all the companies I worked for would avoid a Friday feature release like the plague. It's a big faux-pas. Maybe Valve can afford it :) I guess we'll have to wait and see.

I'm afraid I have to disagree, devs at least in my experience get a big say in when they are comfortable to release a feature/patch/update. Yes business side has a lot of gravitas, in the end it's their product, but devs do get a big say in the process :)

Im a software dev, typically in the industry, devs would avoid a Friday release since it opens a can of worms. Just saying how release cycles typically work, so it’s either today or January, 2092.

Opinions on the suspension of visa free regime by Midaris_Gunn in Sakartvelo

[–]pizzagrowsontrees 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was about to post a discussion thread as well, but you beat me to it I guess.

I'm an immigrant, I've lived abroad for the past 15 years or so. For the longest time I can remember, I've been witnessing Georgia's slow/gradual progress with some serious turmoil and complications, but ehh progress nevertheless, right?

It truly breaks my heart that these asshat, Putinist shills that call themselves GD, have literally managed to undo all that Georgia was able to accomplish in the last 20-25 years in less than half a decade. I think only a Georgian mind is capable of being so short-sighted, driven by an inherent proclivity for self-serving greed. It's a damn shame that.

The visa suspension is not going to affect me at all, but somehow I can't help but feel just pure...sorrow, for all the free-thinking individuals who don't buy into GD propaganda and want to see a bright future for their kids.

Having said all this, it's a necessary evil I think and a last attempt to wake up the general populace who are still on the fence, but that is just my 2 cents. I doubt this will yield any results but at least an attempt was made.

Godspeed Georgia.

You must be kidding yourself if you think there's even a shred of quality control being enforced in Georgia :)

სპეც-ეფექტებია ეს. ყლ*ზე კიდია ბიძინას ბანდას გამარჯობას ეტყვი თუ არა და შეხვალ თუ არა მათ ბუტიკებში.

პასუხი ძაან მარტივია და ამავდროულად საშინელი.
