I love the way you delivered the punchline - very reminiscent of Douglas Adams

If true, God spends a lot of time dreaming up scantily-clad, uwu-looking cat girls for an army of socially isolated believers

Your cables break every 3 days

Glasgow. And screw Time Out for not saying so in the headline.

For the first fraction of a second, after reading the post title, I thought we were talking about developing a rocket to chase and capture SpaceX property. The actuality does not spark joy.

Vibe math. No thank you

Arthur C Clarke is an excellent author and the Rama series is one of my all-time favourites. I’d recommend anything by Philip K Dick, though honestly I think a good reference would be to pick works listed in the SF Masterworks collection, it’s how I found many of my favourite SF novels.

If you fancy venturing into modern SF classics, my favourites are by Peter F Hamilton, Iain M Banks and William Gibson; though does Gibson count? He doesn’t even have a middle initial 😄

The bat travelled 1,000 miles. It is not stated how far the car travelled.

Note that it was City of London Police involved. The City of London is quite distinct and different from the London that tourists know of. The City of London is owned by the corporations (mainly financial institutions) within its boundary, it is self-governing and has the right to set up it’s own police force which can take enforcement action in any part of the UK, not just the City of London. They are basically an enforcement arm for corporations and are very interested in things like enforcing intellectual property claims.

Time to go all Wilford Brimley on his ass.

All I can see is a LEGO interpretation of half of a dubiously designed promotional popcorn bucket 🤔

‘One’

Stone cold classic.

I have started to do this and I’m using Docker to host Kiwix. I’m currently using it to provide offline versions of Wikipedia, medical guides and tutorials for various programming languages. My plan is to put essential apps and information on an RPi and provide a broadcast hotspot where anyone can access the info.

I also live on top of a hill, so I’m saving up to put together a solar powered Meshtastic repeater that I can mount to my aerial pole.

Wireless Application Protocol. I can no longer say on my CV that I ‘worked on WAP in the early 2000s’.

Am I alone in hating race-specific liveries? I like to be able to quickly identify the driver I’m looking at, which I do by recognising the car livery and the colour of the camera pod. It really throws me when teams change colours for a race

I feel that the second Red Bull seat is more of the meat-grindy experience. Racing Bulls is the chef who takes the ground meat and forms it into an F1 driver-shaped patty. Like a Red Bull McNugget of a driver.

Is that not just in the vegan pornos though? Fuck cream, fuck cheese, fuck meat, etc.

As it should be. It’s only cum if it comes from the Balzac area in France.

Yet more anti-consumer technology to go alongside the gates that won’t let you out until you scan your receipt, the ANPR in the car park, the hair-trigger scales on the bagging area, etc. All to crush that extra penny of profit from us.
