I know Americans love Jesus a whole lot but really only 4%. That just seems crazy low

Yeah same. The way I think about federation is in a kind of per “product” approach. That’s a piece of software can be run by anyone and all communicate and work as a whole is the main benefit. Cross compatibility between “products”/software is just an added bonus, but not necessary

I treat any meme with vertical and horizontal lines close together as “loss” until proven otherwise

For the people buying it, the product itself doesn’t matter. It’s got Trump’s name on it and the money they spend goes to him, so he can “own the libs”

It’s cheaper, and quicker to set up is probabaly why. In theory once this is established, you can then add in the overhead and bigger trams if needed.

Knowing RyanAir they’ll treat it like an extra. Taking too long to put your bag away, unruly, fine. Going to the toilet more than once, abhorrent, fine.

Well guess I ain’t a massive fan then. Shame

I’m not from Malta but when I used to go as a kid I always looked forward to drinking Kinnie. It had a weird, but nice, taste. For a time you could get it in the UK, but it’s not the same without the sun.

I’m not sure Jason would fit or agree to it, but I’ll give it a go

I did like the idea of getting a wood burning stove, but someone near us got one recently and the smell is so noticeable just walking around.

I’d rather not allow them back, but if it’s happening we need way better regulation. The minimum chimney height needs to be higher, and maybe also just ban above a certain density of homes.

 

So I’m walking to an evening class at a local college, it’s dark. There’s a bend just before the junction and as I’m walking across a car comes round way too fast. I had to step back to avoid being hit. I was wearing gloves and as it went past I hit it, no idea why, just instinct and anger.

I carry on walking and I see the driver has pulled over a bit down the road, I was expecting a “sorry are you ok” but she instead shouted “did you just hit my car?”. That set me off, shouting at her that she almost fucking ran me over. Then she says “you don’t have to use that kind of language”, the fucking nerve.

Gave up and just walked off. Wish I’d have smashed the wing mirror or keyed the car or something.

Has anyone else almost been run over and how do you deal with the anger of it?

Hate how the BBC always use passive voice for car crashes. No mention that a driver is at fault.

 
 

The Conservatives in Wales lose their last ditch attempt to stop the speed limit change from 30mph to 20mph. The change will be coming into force on the 17th September
