  • All the authority of a bank.

    None of the responsibility.

    Plus Peter Thiel and Elon Musk had a hand in it, and made their fortunes. It's right up there with Hitler and Reagan in the "reasons to invent a time machine and go back and destroy something".

  • Sometimes the crossword is a tricky one

  • I pretended I was functional, and eventually I forgot I was pretending.

  • It's that Ned from Spiderman?

  • And much like all people who do nothing useful yet try to inject themselves into the solution anyway, it doesn't know how to say "I don't know".

    It's just enthusiastic bullshit. It's perfect for replacing middle managers, salesmen, politicians, etc.

  • Never underestimate my desire to skive.

    I'll end up with legs like an Olympic cyclist.

  • In fairness I don't know how the fuck he got one either.

  • Sure, older men can pull off a moustache.

    Sam Elliott. Nick Offerman. Hell, even Pedro Pascal.

    Now see Michael Cera. That's what all young people look like trying to make this work.

    A moustache is earned, not granted.

  • At least there's no moustache-with-no-beard going on.

    I've no idea who told kids they can pull that shit off, but they can't.

  • Because he hates the people they hate.

    And most of them, but they haven't realised that yet.

  • That's alright. When they've got a generation of people who can't even hold a conversation without it, let alone do a job, that price increase will drop that energy use pretty rapidly.

  • Dear Microsoft.

    Your operating system only exists because I have a need to click and type into business things in a quiet office.

    Please stop fucking this up.

  • Uncut Gems was great. Hustle is good. Spaceman is weird as fuck, but in a compelling way.

  • Jurassic World was the worst thing that happened to him. I'm sure he made bank on them, but Christ do they suck.

  • Honestly, this is way past that point now.

    I know an otherwise perfectly normal middle-aged woman who has booked herself train tickets to a pro-Tommy Robinson protest march in London next month.

    It's not National Front skinheads with dog whistle tattoos any more. It's hit the normies. If they want the normies back, the ruling parties are going to have to stop putting asylum seekers in local hotels in shithole towns like mine, because it's just going to take a spark to set this whole country ablaze right now. They need to get processing people to an insane level, build actual accommodation to house them (because this isn't stopping any time soon).

    The whole asylum process needs a radical overhaul, like being able to apply for it without having to trek across the world (go to an embassy for example, and then get distributed to countries according to their means). If they carry on with this "we have to take them in because they made it to our country and it's the law" routine, the whole continent will fall to fascism. If sane rulers do not listen to the people, they will turn to monsters to fix their perceived problems.

  • It's not even that. It's the fact that each of them has so little content, any attempt to find what you want leads you skipping between like three apps, only to find that your only way to watch that 10 year old movie is to rent it from Amazon for £11.99.

    And then you look up how to set up Jellyfin.

  • I don't think I will. In fact, I think I'll download more.

  • She does have huuuuge tracts of land.
