All that drop in ratings, for nothing. Absolute incompetence.

It wouldn't have prevented the dreaded boat people from working, because it's all under the table anyway. It would just have been annoying and intrusive.

Yet at the same time, a free to access, zero knowledge proof ID system could be useful to have. It just can't be mandatory.

I'm working my way through that one now. One of the first episodes they try to cut civil service staff but end up hiring a 5000 extra so they know which ones to cut. Reform recently spent £5m in Derbyshire on consultants to "find savings".

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

How resistant would this be to jamming? Iran managed to black out Starlink.

And how trackable is it? Not sure how many people would be prepared to run one of these boxes if the Revolutionary Guard are going to come knocking.

I saw a Reform Hive on Facebook earlier, and they're all fuming that Farage let him in, although it seemed mostly about Covid vaccine tinfoil-hattedness.

I don't know why they're all so surprised. Reform will be mostly the same people who already ruined the country once, having changed the colour of their ties to keep their snouts in the trough. Only with an even bigger helping of blaming nebulous "others".

Doesn't really matter since the remnants of their party have already fucked off to Reform.

I think I've got more chance of being PM than Kemi.

Just buy a 5090 bro. Maybe two. Look at this leather jacket.

Well it relates to all stores, because the publisher sets the prices, not the store.

It used to be a thing that you set the price high before a sale, then advertise it as "80% off" or whatever.

But since GamePass and PSPlus Premium became a thing, the price is high all the time. I'm sure they've been told to do that to make £10 a month to play all those 3 year old games seem better value, when you can't buy them for a good price outside the designated sales. Maybe they're paid more if it's a full price game, no matter how old it is.

That's kind of just Europe plus Canada. But the whole point is nukes. Without the US we don't really have that (the UK has a few but the US has the keys iirc, and France has a token amount), so Europe needs to get those weapons programs going again.

They should have put Memento on for you.

So the sales look better and the subscription services seem better value.

The Wii. Previous gen console specs. Silly gimmick controller. Best selling peripheral was a step.

Most popular shit in the history of everything.

This is also true. WWII hit hard.

The days when doctors had a preferred cigarette brand didn't help either.

I was expecting PS5 performance at PS5 Pro prices.

The recent leaks will be including 21% VAT in Czech Republic too. It's about the same as the PS5 Pro in the UK.

It's not a great value proposition, but depends how much you value open source.

But we're 60% water so we taste it all the time.

I agree with the second part.

They can't carry it on forever, sadly. It's the nature of a prequel show.

Kirk and Spock's actors are currently older than Nimoy and Shatner were when TOS ended.

Because you want something you can control.

It's no good if you wake up one morning and find "Let's finish setting up your PC :)" on 10,000 machines that have been working for ten years.

"Oil industry's chosen candidate happy to swap worthless bauble for entire country"

Ok, sanctions then?
