Same but towards the blast. I’ve seen Threads, I ain’t hanging around for that shit.

New PC graphics cards alone cost as much as entire games consoles. The top end ones cost the same as multiple PS5s. That’s why consoles exist.

I am on principle because what the fuck is the point of all this industrialisation and technology development if we aren’t trying to break out of the cycle of scarcity?

As for how it can be properly funded: fuck knows.

Pensions have already been overhauled in the UK. Now pensions are essentially a tax efficient way of investing where you also don’t get the realised returns until after you retire, so essentially you are paying for your own future.

26!? Do you live in hell? I start sweating at 19 and at 22 I’m stripping off to my underwear

UK police are not the same as Burger police

Same. I remember seeing a lot of buzz surrounding it on release day, but I’d never played a TES game before. Decided to download it and play for an hour just to see what it’s about. I remember after what felt like roughly an hour I suddenly had massive hunger pains, checked the time and realised I’d just been playing for about 9 hours straight with no break. I don’t think I’ve ever had another game do that to me before.

(UK) All three are technically correct, but 1 and 3 are the most commonly used. 1 is casual and the most frequently said (mainly because it has fewer syllables and we humans are lazy).

Edit: Thinking about this more. Phrase 1 is what you would normally use when you desire something that is not shared with others, for example:

“I found this old slice of bread behind the sofa…”

“I want that!”

Or “This week’s jackpot is 1 billion pounds!”

“I WANT THAT!”

Phrase 2 or 3 are normally used when you are expressing a common desire.

“I wish this skyscraper would just fall on top of me so I don’t have to go to work tomorrow” “I want the same”

“I wish Uncle would stop drinking.” “I want this too, but he is very thirsty.”

Yeah, up until about 2 weeks ago I was still using a Pixel 4. It was 5 years old but never felt slow at all.

I do woodworking as a hobby. It doesn’t make money unless you invest in a full workshop and scale up production to the point where it would basically be a second job. Often the material costs alone are as much as it would cost to buy a completed item.

I’d still recommend it as a creative outlet though. There’s something satisfying about seeing that coffee table in the lounge and thinking “yeah I made that!”

WhatsApp (& mobile internet in general) replaced it for me. It’s no longer a requirement for both my friends and myself to be at our computers at the same time to talk shit to each other.

Don’t give them ideas

Wow that looks like a generic imitation car from a video game or low budget movie that can’t afford to licence real cars.

Also its performance is something else… Power 45 bhp, top speed 78 mph, max range 140 miles, 0-60 19 seconds. Kudos to Dacia, I didn’t know it was even possible to make an electric car that slow.

On one thread there were a bunch of creeps making pervy jokes about a 14 year old girl. I called them out for being pedophiles and reported them. I got banned from an entire network of default subs.

The reputation comes from the US military being stationed in the UK during the height of WW2 rationing when there was an extremely limited list of ingredients to cook with. They were unable to associate a country under an attempted siege from U-boats with a reduced supply of food.

We do have a love of beige food at times, but it’s essentially our version of chicken tendies.

Been to the US a few times. Your food tastes extremely average and the only difference to anywhere else is that it has about 3 times the kcals and half the nutrition. I’ve had heartburn and constipation virtually every time I’ve visited.

And your beer is possibly the worst in the world. It’s pisswater.

With opinions like that I’d be surprised if you’ve even left your own state, let alone the country.

The cure is worse than the disease.

I think it was because there were a few high profile let-downs, like Kerbal Space Program 2, Cities Skylines 2, Starfield etc. Even Zelda, which was eagerly anticipated, was only OK and interest fizzled out quite quickly.

The meme itself must be a good 15 years old too
