And in the UK (where Yorkshire is) we have a points system. If you build up 12 points you lose your license, and speeding can get you between 3-6 points per offence depending how serious it was. So it's really not just a case of the rich speeding all the time, paying the fines and carrying on.

My TV has a "Night" mode that caps the volume at a certain level, so you can make the dialogue audible without having action be way louder. And also a "Volume Levelling" setting that has a similar effect, by trying to make all the sounds roughly the same volume rather than only quieting the ones that were louder to begin with.

~~Look up the Arnie flick "Commando". It aged badly in a hilarious way.~~

Actually this is from Predator. Also worth a watch.

The orange jumpsuits say "Misfits" to me.

This is the huge disconnect between what the fediverse is and what the users actually want.

Users want the convenience of a single entity that floats around the different instances. They want to interact with community A on instance B and also commini X on instance Y.

But most clients deal with it by letting you log in with multiple users on multiple instances

But this is like saying "ski ball is dangerous because it's a gateway to beer pong. By the way we see no issues with kids playing vodka pong"

When does the freedom kick in?

I was once walking past a gay bar with a buddy of mine. A drunk guy stumbled out, looked us both up and down and yelled "Phwoar! That's a porno I wanna watch!".

Well, from the article:

It is understand some class photographs were taken before the pupils with additional support needs were brought in.

You can choose not to connect a Roku TV to the Internet during the initial setup, and you just get access to live TV and the HDMI inputs with (obviously) no streaming channels or updates. It works fine as a dumb TV.

And the credit card thing? That's after you create your account on their website, you can just close the browser window. Or click the button saying "skip" or "later" or whatever it is.

I've managed to go about 4 years or so without crushing one of my fingers. The last time was pretty bad: a group of friends were piling into a minibus/large taxi to go to a gig, and my girlfriend decided to slam the sliding door shut onto my hand. It was pretty unpleasant.

The nail blackened just like yours, but didn't pop off immediately. For a month or so it sort of dried out and went yellow, then one day it peeled off to reveal a healthy new one underneath.

So good luck with that, mate.

Tried to make industrial lubricants funny, hence PlungeButter

 

While working on Magnus the Red, I realised he's sneering at something and thought a loyalist psyker would be a suitable focus for his contempt.
