Not sure if it was intentional, but fair play to Britney, that’s literally what she did.

I’ve not read any of her family’s accounts so there’s a huge knowledge gap on my part there, but to break out of that shitty legal arrangement and sing for herself is pretty badass.

I think anyone living on or near a Canal Street/Drive/Road/Wharf/etc know the value of someone with a bit of tape or a coin and some time to kill.

Brilliant patch war.

Well done friend. Getting a squad together for four straight sessions is hard work, let alone four years. Rest well.

Fifty fifty really.

Sometimes you go over and for whatever reason, it works. It might be my fuckin’ mind-blowing witty banter (/s obvs) it may be because they’re bored out of their tits with their current company, it may be because they’re just looking for a chat to kill an hour or whatever function we’re at.

Sometimes, it doesn’t. They’re busy with something, perhaps not as receptive to overthinking social approaches, ormaybe they just can’t be arsed and would rather stare at their phone until whatever time it is to go home. Fair enough.

If you’re never going to see them again though, what’s the harm in asking? If they’re happy enough to chat away, then great - and if they’re quite clear they’re not up for some banter, then take the fuckin’ hint and leave them alone. Nobody’s going to remember a hamfisted social approach if it’s done respectfully and nicely. They will if it comes across as leery or persistent though, and that’s just no bueno for everyone involved.

As William Shakespeare once said: “thou doth miss 100% of thine shots that thou faileth to take”, from the bridge of the Starship Enterprise.

It used to be the first thing you checked on 56k.

Hold tab for the score and stats, see if your pingtime was under 350, and crack on.

There was a certain art to playing as an HPB, especially when ISDN or leased lines were the domain of the rich and famous… and students.

These days, it seems that anything over 30 is… suboptimal, and only single digit pingtimes are good enough for competitive non-LAN play.

That said, before multiplayer was centralised, you checked the server pingtime before joining the server. Private servers seem to be a dying breed now.

How the fuck has JavaScript lasted three years, let alone 30?

It looks like someone drove a truck through the W3C tutorials offices, and formed a language out of what was left hanging off the bumpers.

I’m the first the admit that my issues with JS can be boiled down to “skill issue, git gud” but man it doesn’t help itself sometimes.

aaaawwww yeaaahhh 2005 has returned

@07:28 for top tier tacheage.

I can only speak from across the pond, but that’s likely the strategy. It has no downsides for the current administration - but the incoming administration either has to cancel it and look like the shitheads (not that they seem to care about that), or run with it to save face, and try and find the budget for it.

It’s giving me some mega Super Hexagon vibes there. Just needs an equally banging soundtrack.

Taking the #1 (or whatever number) ranked word would make for a good alternative to AskOuija or something.

I wondered why “die” was so common, until I realised we have a lot of Deutsch compadres too!

Looks like an advanced Doom II map.

Just missing a teleport at the top to simulate a second floor, or a silent téléporter if you’re really fancy.

I suspect the answer lies in paragraph 4, where I’m making the assumption that the scammers make contact directly with the buyers, and invite a payment to be made to the scammers rather than the brokers.

I suppose in a strictly legal sense, the brokers are off the hook then as they’ve no idea the scammers have asked the buyers to send a payment.

It’s scummy as fuck all round.

Man I miss Eudora back in the day. I used the mail client in SeaMonkey before I just started using my phone to check mail.

The 90s and 2000s were a simpler time.

Banging idea, love this.

Only changes I would make is changing out the SOS for a five-second long-press, and changing reset to a ten-tap - to make sure people aren’t just fucking about turning it on and off.

That’s not the problematic metric though. It’s the 70-80% (link) install base of the Windows OS on desktop computers that Edge is installed with that’s the basis of the anti-competitive allegation.

The fact that it still only takes 5% of the browser usage is more of a happy accident.
