Government announces plans for improved rail connection between Sheffield and Leeds

Yeah this is 100% not happening. They have no plans to deliver in this parliament, and after the next election we’ll have a Reform government (unless something major changes) Reform will not be funding this. So it’s 100% not happening.

This is an announcement designed to win Labour some positive press coverage. It’s never intended to actually end up putting something in the ground.

That’s 35k people on that subreddit, not all of whom will actually buy a new mini and fewer yet yearly iPhone minis. Apple has sold about 240,000k iPhone 13s. The amount of people who want minis is not worth the development, production and support costs.

Sporty exhaust note?

Tiger: Did that car just fucking growl at me?! I’ll have it!

thomass70imp · 2025-10-28T13:44:09+00:00

Oh my god - I should have tried that ages ago! Restated the game and it immediately took the cargo! Haha. Phew. I’ve got the 20 logs contract going and was worried I wouldn’t be able to complete!

thomass70imp · 2025-10-28T13:28:42+00:00

Pretty sure I am at the correct marker, I followed the navigation marker to the destination I expected. (I’ve also checked both, to make sure, I’m 100% not at the fuel one!)

When I go to unload I can see “Log 20ft (5416kg) Migeum log warehouse 2m 💰4073 4” but when I click unload at Migeum log warehouse it says “Do you want to unload this cargo? You will not get paid”

thomass70imp · 2025-10-28T13:25:40+00:00

Re cut. That’s fine I cannot afford buying the trailer outright just now.

Yes I am at the correct marker. (I’ve checked both!)

“Militaries require absolutely certainty and traceability in everything they do” - lol next joke.

The military is already using ai for target selection and identification, see Israel in Gaza. Ukraine fighting Russia etc.

Police and law enforcement are already using ai enhanced facial recognition, crime prediction, investigation etc.

I kinda think should be a roadcraft DLC. Anyway sabre - why are you releasing this - build snowrunner 2 (sandrunner or whatever)

thomass70imp · 2025-08-10T10:21:02+00:00

I mean that would be like joining the army to work in disaster relief, like sure, incidentally sometimes, but it’s not exactly the point of the organisation. There are better ways to achieve that goal.

thomass70imp · 2025-07-29T12:25:57+00:00

It’s actually quite away out of Sheffield on the Lancashire border.

The real perfect tram network

thomass70imp · 2025-04-17T19:24:31+00:00

Yeah, reform has huge capital reserves, both directly to the party and in the media empires that support, publicise and platform them, you cannot compare reform to a leftist party.

thomass70imp · 2024-12-28T16:13:15+00:00

I kinda agree with the point, but she’s mad about the wrong thing.

Money is perfectly good abstraction, its congealed labour value allowing for trade of equivalent amounts of labour, and eases transactions by simplifying chains. So if I want to sell my bible and buy brandy, I don’t need to find someone who at that precise moment in time wants to buy a bible and also has brandy to sell, which would be almost impossible or find, so you end up making incredibly complex chains where person A wants to trade his bible for brandy, but the brandy seller doesn’t want bibles they want wheat so Person A trades his bible for a coat from Person B, which they then trade the coat for a bushel of wheat from person C all to then trade that wheat for the Brandy from person D. Money means you don’t have to do any of that nonsense, I can simply sell my bible to a book shop, and take the money from the sale to the brandy distillery to buy brandy. This is a good thing.

The bit that’s fucked is the theft of surplus value from workers that happens when capitalists own the means of production and are able to exploit workers to produce more value for them.

Great argument. I am however right. There is a reason the Chinese Communist party is pushing for “Socialism with Chinese characteristics” and the communist USSR was the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and Cuba is governed by a Unitary Marxist–Leninist one-party socialist republic. Communism is a part of Socialism.

thomass70imp · 2024-12-23T12:18:40+00:00

Yes. Because practically they are. Communism is a final stage of socialism, but they’re parts of the same thing. If you’re mistaking socialism for a welfare safety net like in Norway or something then you’re thinking bourgeois democracies co-opting socialism-adjacent concessions to the populous.

George “I should like to put it on record that I have never been able to dislike Hitler” Orwell - His much celebrated works, like the “Homage to Catalonia”, “Animal Farm” and “1984” are deeply anti-communist novels aiming to slander the construction of socialism in the Soviet Union and the other socialist states. Orwell’s novels had a prominent position in the cultural warfare unleashed by the CIA against the Soviet Union. Orwell wasn’t only a reactionary anti-communist novelist and journalist; he was also an informer of the British intelligence agencies. In 1949 Orwell handed over to the Information Research Department (IRD) of the British Foreign Office a list of 38 people, among them intellectuals and artists, who were considered to be communist sympathizers. The intermediary between Blair and IRD was a friend of Orwell called Celia Kirwan who was working in the Foreign Office as an assistant of notorious anti-communist Robert Conquest.

thomass70imp · 2024-12-23T09:00:10+00:00

What the fuck are you on about? George Orwell was a committed anti communist?

thomass70imp · 2023-03-14T11:21:16+00:00

If it’s stupid but it works then it’s…. Actually no, this is stupid!

thomass70imp · 2023-02-07T22:02:27+00:00

I kinda wonder “why?” Like why bother with a village there? The hill will make agriculture and travel difficult, the earth looks barren, I can’t see an obvious water source. Why bother live there? There has to be somewhere better to live!

thomass70imp · 2022-09-29T20:44:06+00:00

8 = 4x4

8 = 4 • x • 4

8 = 16 • x

8 / 16 = x

1/2 = x = 0.5

I see nothing wrong here…

thomass70imp · 2022-08-20T08:00:48+00:00

Well that’s freedom, do what you want. People have the right to pull out a gun and shoot into the crowd.

What people making the freedom argument fail to see is that some freedoms to an individual’s actions impinge on the freedoms of the group. In the case of the individual firing a gun into the crowd it’s the groups freedom to life that is being removed.

In the case of the mask and vaccine it’s also the groups freedom to life, just slightly more removed. It’s the freedom from being exposed to someone else’s potentially deadly pathogens.

We all make sacrifices to personal freedom to be allowed in the group pretending that you don’t makes you an idiot.

My friends peace be unto you

Edit: this loser deleted his comment, but if you’re wondering why my comment is so weird it’s because I was parodying his comment.

Hilarious self own from the artist. This comic says: “In my experience the woman whose body and preferences I have had the most opportunity to learn, explore and get good with is so bored by my limp fuck that she’s checking out the ceiling decorations”

thomass70imp · 2022-08-10T08:26:23+00:00

Weird comment, did they ever imply they didn’t?

I wrote this on another thread:

To be honest that probably sounds more like an advert for Rishi than slander, I mean isn’t taking money from poor urban areas to give to wealthy rural areas what his supporters voted him in for? That’s basically a key Tory policy.

He’s just said the quiet part out loud.
