I’m developing a game where you have to go back to assassinate Adam. It’s a first person shooter.

I’ve spent this morning morbidly watching the MTV channels close down and the final songs played were:
MTV Music - Video Killed the Radio Star (Buggles)
Club MTV - Don’t Stop the Music (Rihanna)
MTV 90s - Goodbye (Spice Girls)
MTV 80s - Together in Electric Dreams (Oakey and Moroder)

Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama.

Us: Across your entire career?

Reiner: In a 6 year period.

Us: That sounds-

Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.

Dad’s books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending it’s their own fault. So I hope Kemi’s taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

I posted once on the other place that a view like the one below is almost completely the result of human activity.

Rick forages for mussels in his favourite rock pools and tours Bodmin Moor's dark past with his son Jack.

Is that because it's currently on UKTV? u.co.uk/shows/rick-s...

Not bought anything from AO for years, there are better cheaper options. But that sounds like they're mis-using your personal data.

What do we think?🤔

Hmm…. A Daily Mail headline so clearly designed to make you furious.

Being shared by salivating Tory MPs who love a good rage farming story!

So, what’s going on here?

Let’s take a look!👀

It's unusual to treat CapEx as a one-off cost in your profit and loss. Usually you'd add the depreciation year by year as a smaller loss, for as long as you own the asset.

In terms of political strategy, Labour have absolutely failed to tie Reform to Brexit... or indeed to Donald Trump.

XKCD is often subtly political. You know shit is bad when it’s pretty overt.

Since Slack is down I have no choice but to email staff and ask them to send me five bullet points of things they got done today.

No one should be in any doubt that an objective of Trump, Vance, Musk and others is to break-up the EU.

Have you noticed how they’ve used the lack of employment law and lack of data protection law in the US to their advantage? Firing people who refuse to break the rules.

This is why libertarians and Brexiteers want to rip up rights and regulations. They stop them.

Download it and see what you get!

I'd leave the account there, with a pointer to here. Also means they still have to host your content, but they're not making money from your ad views.

Yeah, depending on what I'm doing sometimes I find rock music too distracting, so will fall back to TV/Movie soundtracks. Although I just don't listen to music whilst working as much as I used to.

If you have the AUDACITY to play video games on "easy" or "story" mode...

I want you to know that I think that's a perfectly acceptable way to enjoy a video game that you paid for because you're supposed to enjoy your favorite pastime any way you like.

Real life's hard enough. Enjoy your hobby.👍
