Once the orange scourge has gone, all republicans who hold any public office should have two options: 1) admit they failed to oppose him and resign for life 2) stand trial for treason

I suspect that if Hitler had played golf, he would also have been better than trump in that respect too.

I suggest a 100% blockade of all Russian internet traffic, both ways.

Are proctologists allowed to prepare food?

Not every historic building has to be preserved. Actually learning from history is way more important.

Remember, if people were all decent, we would not need laws. Laws come about when society gets fed with certain behaviors and try to stop it by creating laws that prohibit the undesired behavior. We have so many laws because people are so horrible.

I never imagined that during my post-WWII life, there would be a contemporary person worse than Hitler.

Every ISP, worldwide, should redirect all traffic to the domain of the execution livestream to a small page that explains what sort of people would watch such a thing.

Homo sapiens is the scourge of the planet. If AI gets rid of us all, that would be the best thing for the planet and all the other species. I am sure that AI will be immune to superstition, myths, and religion, which will allow them to build a planetwide utopia.

So many product descriptions on amazon are just obviously outright wrong, even if one ignores the Chinese to English translation errors. Then there are all the fake images where the product has been inserted into a photograph at a completely ridiculous scale... Entertaining.

no, Shelly.com , this is not how packs should work!

Concert: The audience goes to hear the music. Big stage, loud. Indoor Gig: you are a supplement to the main activity. Small stage, volume set such that people can talk to each other. People who think indoor gigs are concerts are twats. Turn it down.

Someone (younger than me) should create a website that rates the click-bait levels of headlines so we can see which media outlets to avoid. The media used to be the watchdogs for society. Now we need watchdogs for the media.

Data centres are where cloud storage exists.

People opposing data centres should not be able to use any services that use cloud data.

WW II lasted 5 years. After over 4 years, of full scale war, some Western Countries are beginning to realise that something has to be done about Russia. More public statements, letter writing and sanctions. The human species is doomed by the leadership vacume.

Don't think that Google indexes all the web pages it finds. I have thousands of plain HTML pages to which I have been directing them with mapfiles for at least a decade and they don't bother indexing them. Nonsense claims of HTTP 404 (or 5xx), and all sort of erroneous nonsense. Even with adsense.

When buying a house don't look for one that already has solar panels. In fact, look for one that doesn't have a solar panel installation so that you can install a very good system for a mere £20,000 or so which is neither here nor there when buying most houses.

Turns out that humans are mostly incapable of acting humanly.

if ever given the choice of energy supplier, do not use British Gas. You cant even get the service shut off, and we have to pay them every day that they do nothing.

If you are not depressed, there is something wrong with you.

Think long and hard before introducing crushed stone anywhere in your yard/gardens. You (or the next owner) will regret it.

Ethernet cable. A self conflicting object. Unless its unplugged

One of the most satisfying things in game dev (and all programming) is when you're adding a new feature and it ends up being easy because you designed something to be flexible a long time ago even though you didn't have a particular reason to at the time.

Sanctions do not work. It is the tool of cowardly politicians when they need to pretend they did something.

pffft, did PopSci even google this.... They missed remotesign.mixmox.com www.popsci.com/technology/d...

Competence looks like brilliance in the context of mediocrity.

This year, the Brits are celebrating America's Independence more than ever. So much so, that they're even sending the red arrows over to celebrate. share.google/psQX2yPH8zNR...

Celebrating the 250th anniversary of the USA is like having a birthday party for someone who died 5 years ago. #usa

5 stars, but no customer reviews! Do better amazon.co.uk

Really UK TV license, I pay for a whole year and you give me 11 months? Why round the months down? Just make it 365 days hense you crooks.

If you can't speak out against something, you have no place in politics.

If the royal line of succession is essentially a genetic one, and they're now considering removing Andrew from that because of his behavior, then surely, the same applies to his brother too?

Opening joint accounts at HSBC (US & UK) is the most laborious slow and involved process I have ever encountered. You make a request, they say someone will call you, that call sets up anther call, then that happens and they set up another 40 min call, to fill in an application form.... "premier"

when I see a gofund me post for someone having big medical expenses, I wonder if they vote for the party that repeatedly tries to shut down the Affordable Health Care Act.

Almost every transaction with any form of digital footprint is now followed up with a prompt for feedback. Note: no responses are allowed to this post to illustrate that it IS possible to not have feedback. #howdidwedo

We're no more civilised than we've ever been. Slavery is contracted out to sweatshops. Drone footage of battlefield deaths have replaced amphitheatres. Tyrants sit on thrones appointed by a mob. Wealth is concentrated in the hands of the few while others starve. We are savage.

The Republic of Ireland would like to unify and incorporate Northern Ireland. My idea: incorporate all of the UK, and thus bring the UK back into the EU as part of Great Ireland. 🇪🇺🇮🇪🇬🇧

I wonder who could use some chunks of layout.... cabin-layout.mixmox.com/2025/12/who-... #trains #marklin #modelrr #maine

So called professional services do NOT always work with the best interests of their clients in mind. Consultants, advisors and especially real-estate lawyers. The seller is gouged at every opportunity because money is flowing in that direction.

This is how) you annoy the shit out of a programmer)

I would say that 99% of UK property surveys are text warning the customer that the surveyor could not investigate certain items or that we should ask some other specialist about the items. 115 pages of mostly boiler plate legalese.

Pumpkin is not a good ingredient for cakes, deserts, or drinks.

The incompetence of most world leaders today is so deep, that none of them will change their actions, because such a change would expose their incompetence. So they all continue the pretence and rely on doublespeak and legal loopholes to avoid responsibility.

The 2nd amendment is there to oppose an oppressive government. When it happens, they say they have no idea what the motive is. The fact that the suspect is reported to have been shot on the ground is the type of behavior that is being opposed.

A wind turbine failed in Massachusetts. It did not spill millions of gallons of oil into the environment.

I dropped the toothpaste, and just stared at it. Crestfallen. @docatcdi.com

Why do so many people not change their Wi-Fi password to something other than random characters? Why do router manufacturers not generate default passwords using three random words?
