I recently drove from the North of England to the South of France. Almost as soon as we crossed the Channel we were instantly getting insects splattered on the windscreen to the point we had to refill buy some bright pink no-nonsense washer fluid at the next services.

Generally speaking the customer is the one paying for the product. For a commercial TV station, the customer is the advertiser, not the audience. The audience is the product being sold. Like IKEA felling trees to build furniture, or Exxon pumping oil, the TV station makes programmes as part of the product manufacturing process.
Also, this is a reason why public service broadcasters need to be cherished.
One hundred percent go for USFF. Even the cheapest, most basic processor will smash server roles because it’s not having to power desktop applications, graphics, window managers, etc.
UK. 30 days plus Bank Holidays as paid leave. Also, we have a flexible working system where we can work additional hours to accrue up to five days’ leave. Longest continuous period I’ve taken off was three weeks. It’s also WFH four days a week.
When I was applying for this job I was offered - and accepted - a job at an American company which paid a few thousand more but didn’t do flexi hours or WFH. It actually felt pretty good letting them know I wouldn’t be starting and why.
The LABiA pitches, the dinner party twats, the West Brom terror cell, the Daisy Harris murder inquiry, Ivan Dobsky… if anything, they’ve got better with age. Plus some, like Clive, are pretty timeless.
Did you ever see the movie? It’s basically the creators bitching because they were shunned for the content while South Park was lauded because it came with a heavy-handed moral.
HEEEEEYYY Mister Passer-By! Crest-on-Birdman’s-HELMET!
TGTTM is the beginning of a vast, graceful arc that leads eventually, inevitably, to Check It Out With Scott Clam.
Roger’s Profanisaurus calls it Wanker’s Cocoa.
Yeah, I wonder how robust an ereader and one of those solar phone chargers would be? I seem to recall English Wikipedia takes up about 5GB, so you could probably bring a good chunk of Project Gutenberg too.
Here’s a good example of why you should read all the instructions before you begin. Also, if anyone reading this is planning in spending any time at the DeMonfort Vale Fisheries this weekend I’ll warn you now: the fish are all fucked up.
SHOCK reaction as bait comment fallout nixes OP campaign success chances, experts warn.
Smarty user here. Seems like there’s a lot of us. UK, £14/mo for unlimited everything with no throttling (I’ve tried). Includes EU/EEA roaming capped at 12GB.
You beat me to it. There’s something particularly effective about someone who basically never swears dropping a single “fuck” into a sentence and I get the same feeling here.
Good for you on overcoming Rand’s bullshit worldview. And, yeah, Threads is still terrifying all these years later. That, and When The Wind Blows.
By the time I’m fifty I expect I’ll wake up with sun beaming through the window and I’ll smile, stretch, lean over to the bedside table and just go full-on Hungry, Hungry Hippos.
Why would you think that?
SLAM “If I do upgrade to Business, will I be able to recline my seat without interrupting the person behind’s meal?” SLAM “And is The Grand Budapest Hotel still available onboard or do I need to download it first, goddamnit?”
Oh, yeah, my Home Assistant setup is fucking monstrous but also, crucially, self-hosted. Why the fuck do I want my thermostat and radiators to be talking via a datacentre in another country?
UK here. It’s just not a thing any more. I regularly drive - or am a passenger - on a ~200 mile round trip and insect strikes just don’t happen.
That said, I recently drove from the North of England to the South of France. Almost as soon as we crossed the Channel we were instantly getting insects splattered on the windscreen to the point we had to refill buy some bright pink no-nonsense washer fluid at the next services. So I assume some counties are more responsible than others with their use of pesticides.
