This is a fan mod for Simpsons hit and run, FYI for those wondering

I am not suggesting for a second that he’s completely sane or that dementia isn’t taking hold, I’m merely pointing out that this kind of thing has been his MO for decades at this point. Truth never matters to him or his base.

Why do these kinds of headlines keep getting posted suggesting that Trump is being forgetful? He’s not, he knows exactly who was in charge, but he knows his base is stupid and will get riled up at anything he wants to tell them.

It’s just a constant stream of outrage to keep the base riled.

It’s all good mate, we’ve all got over excited at times.

If releasing the files wasn’t likely to have an impact, they’d have been released by now.

For even some of the most diehard MAGA folks, diddling kids is a step too far.

Of course there’s a likelihood that the sheer number of folks involved would mean a huge amount of current and prominent politicians would have to go and that would almost certainly amount to what could best be described as a “reset” of the current political system and, well, maybe that’s the real reason they haven’t been released because neither side wants that, even though it’s painfully obvious that the system is broken and needs it.

The article says:

The S1500 features a main airfoil and an annular wing that together form a giant duct. Inside this duct are 12 turbine-generator sets, each rated at 100 kW.

That suggests to me (admittedly a layman) that each blimp is more like 1.2MW?

Honestly, getting it wrong in either sense might be the most British thing I’ve ever done.

Honestly, beef wellington isn’t bad or anything but it’s definitely overrated. Don’t bother trying to make one, just find one at a restaurant and wonder what the fuss was about.

Fuck grandma, my roast dinners are an event. Got my roastie game en point, my yorkies are crispy and all the trimmings are standard. Plus the gravy, not to brag, will make you jizz your pants its that good.

I feel like your rage is directed at the wrong people

Nah it’s just shit writing. Occam’s razor and all that.

It doesn’t really matter if people stick around to play a single game, they’ll almost certainly explore other games and stick around for the service. That’s the idea I think they’re going for.

I’d be curious to see how many CoD players stuck around.

Game pass is a big success for them as far as anyone can tell.

Make sure your ublock lists are up to date, sometimes the extension gets a bit stuck and needs a nudge to update them.

It’s an arms race and Google hasn’t won it yet.

I think it’ll be somewhere in the middle. Quite a few people have not had to deal with ads in streaming for many years now, if it’s suddenly forced it’ll piss off a lot

I don’t think they’re all going to suddenly pirate again, I think many will just switch to other streaming providers.

If they all start doing the shitty ads, we’re fucked.

Came here to say this, Gmail search has been basically broken for me for years. The preview suggestions when typing in a search query have been more accurate for me than the actual search.

I have a couple of old emails from 2020 that always appear in search results no matter what I search for.

Bioshock was a cut down version of the “shock” gameplay - no inventory management, much more linear path, etc.

I remember at the time people complained that it was “dumbed down for console”.

I still enjoyed it though, but I can see why veterans of the genre would feel things are missing or fall short while newcomers would be blown away.

Yup most of the hubs can do modem mode so you should be fine there. I believe their FTTP Hub can’t do it but that’s not in many areas.

Virgin will definitely be faster, they’ll do up to a gigabit. Hopefully open reach rolls out fibre to you soon. I only got the fibre to my house last month!

We’re testing this same tech in the UK as well: https://www.ispreview.co.uk/index.php/2025/02/openreach-and-nokia-claim-uks-first-live-test-of-50gbps-broadband.html

China might be a little ahead but it’s hardly a leapfrog.
