The US Navy getting owned by a force that doesn’t have a fucking Navy is extremely funny.

If you want to give a gift that’s simultaneously very thoughtful AND a very shitty gift: buy him a pair of knee pads. Refuse to elaborate on why you bought them.
I wear tankies when it is hot out.
Web 3.0 is, more or less, what timeshares were to our predecessors. Here’s a thing you can theoretically use, but in practice, it’s useless and just cons you out of a ton of cash. And the theoretical thing will never actually exist.
Meanwhile, I am permanently banned from YouTube for uploading a 45 second clip of an episode of Star Wars Rebels as a private video to share with my kids, after we just (legally) watched it and they thought it was cool.
Such a good system.
They did. It’s true.
Short answer: No.
Long answer: Your laptop desires are common, but unprofitable. Even if manufacturers charged twice as much for them, they’d lose out in the long run. Because you wouldn’t need to buy a new one every three years.
It’s the same problem that mobile phones have. Year after year, the number one complaint in consumer surveys is: “I want longer battery life!” It’s been like that for 20 years now. You’re never gonna see it. The battery having a short daily life—as well as a short lifecycle (before you have to bin the device because the battery isn’t replaceable)—is an intentional design choice. It ensures you keep buying The Coolest New Thing every few years. That’s money in the bank, baby!
Labour aren’t spineless—they’re complicit. Outside of that very small window where Jezza was “in charge” (read: the donors fucked up, and fixed it shortly thereafter), Labour in our living memory has never been anything but Dollar Store Democrats with smart boy accents.
I made bootleg tapes for my friends. I remember Little Feat and The Band were pretty popular choices.
I agree. Israel’s real war crimes are just as bad as China’s imaginary ones.
Today I learned: the “conspiracy theory” about the oil industry killing electric cars in the 90’s was absolutely true.
It seems he wasn’t whistleblowing to expose the war crimes but because he felt troops were beyond overinvestigated!
He was concerned that a couple grunts were going to get scapegoated for what a ton of absolute monsters were doing. Like Ben Roberts-Smith—decorated war hero who walks free today—uh, I need to spoiler/content warning this gorefest, said:
“I shot that removed in the head. [witness name redacted] told me not to kill anyone on the last job. So I pulled out my 9mm, shot the removed in the side of the head, blew his brains out. It was the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.”
Yeah, that guy gets to walk free and get rich off public speaking engagements. McBride, though! Exposing that evil is malfeasance and needs to be PUNISHED!
You dome some kids for fun, so you can jerk off to it later? Victoria’s Cross material, national hero. Tell the public about it? CRIMINAL.
ACAB
They’re just bad apples. As the old saying goes: “One bad apple spoils the barrel is fine and the barrel is fine, nothing to worry about.”
I really wish they’d pick a better name. Ableism aside, it’s just a terrible name.
Crime rules.
Ages ago, I won a bet that I would get carded at the pub if I shaved, even if I was wearing an expensive suit. I was 35 at the time.
Wait what? I thought tankies were those sleeveless t-shirts you wear when it’s too damn hot.
What a tragedy. I will be keeping Suspect and their family in my thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.
Will the barbarians choose socialism or barbarism? Shame nobody’s ever written on this before.
I think so, but I’m so deep on the autism spectrum that I’m probably SCUBA-certified, so…
