How it feels to wear glasses when you're eating hot noodles and they fog up

Send a letter. Include your details. Tell her how you feel and your regrets and your hopes. Tell her the door will always be open but don't insist or pressure. Tell her you're proud of her.

It's 2026, distance means nothing, if she wants to see you or talk to you there are ways to make it happen.

Aaaand...Laptop's given up the ghost. Not any of the removable/replaceable components so I suppose it's time to save up for a new one. Currently running off an old mini PC I had for running a print server: 4GB RAM with a 1.5GHz Celeron processor

Pretty sure every phone I've had since 2010 is better

"Oi Oi Cunt Cunt Cunt" would do it. I don't think dropping an "oi" will have much impact

It's the "There was no autism back in the old days" issue: people aren't more depressed/anxious/have lower self esteem than before, but social media and societal attitudes to mental health have made people more likely to open up about having these issues, so they're reported in higher numbers now.

One's a police officer
The other's another police officer
Together, they fight crime!

They *will be* L shaped. We haven't developed L technology yet, it's going through R&D at the moment

I loved the old style ones with the big icons and the huge Dad's Army style arrows showing different units moving! nice and clear what each unit is and what it did rather than trying to distinguish two forces drenched in Nuln Oil in a grey cityscape fighting over nondescript objectives

I learned to be careful about auto-grabbing new music after LIDARR went:
Oh, you like Korn?
They're on this Kerrang album. I'll grab that
This album is listed as being by "Various Artists"
You must really love this "Various Artists" person
I'll grab EVERYTHING THEY HAVE EVER DONE
y no disk space?

Urgh the Plex skill got removed from the amazon UK alexa store. For fucks sake.

As long as you don't care about the DVD menus, every media server supports this, it's their basic function. just rip the backups yourself and chuck them in the library.

Media servers don't police where you get the files from, that's not their job

Oh I hate those little bastards. All it takes is one tiny gap in the wall or under a door and you'll have tons. I bought a kilo of salt and made a barrier around all the doors and cabinets, that stopped them. Copper tape works too apparently

I fully agree, but I also remember why GW stopped crediting individual writers and things on books. The fanbase can *get weird* about stuff like that.

Whether that's a good enough reason or not is debatable, and I really wish they wouldn't just credit stuff to Warhammer Storyforge" half the time

That's nuts, you'd be great on Buzzcocks. Or Taskmaster for that matter.

I just signed into Trillian for the first time in forever. Almost all 3rd party messengers are no longer supported, it's completely useless now. Such a shame, it was the GOAT back in the day

But hey at least I have lifetime pro membership lol

Saturday Night Live UK review – it didn’t fail and it could have been a lot worse Impressions of Keir Starmer, sketches about dodgy skincare products, and some ‘god-awful performances’ aside, the inaugural episode’s ambition was refreshing to see

This is the most hilariously British headline you could imagine.

Sad to hear that Specialist Arms is shutting down. An invaluable resource for Specialist/Fanatic games like #EpicArmageddon, #BattlefleetGothic, #Warmaster and all the other niche games GW produced.

Their brothers over at the Conclave will miss them dearly.

*duke nukem voice* sorry babe, i don't support monopolistic corporations, so i will not "netflix and chill" with you. in this house we support the real heroes: pirates. so why don't you come over and "plex and peg" instead

I've been rewatching #stargate atlantis for the first time (Broadcast order in the UK was a bit screwy so this is my first time watching it in order)

Exactly how many times do Atlantis need to be betrayed by the Genii / Ronan betrayed by "surviving Setedans" before pattern recognition kicks in?
