  • Website delay

  • Only if it's intentional, it can easily be caused by ignorance/incompetence too

  • When you wanna watch something but for whatever reason using a big screen is inconvienient, would you just watch it on your phone or wait till you find the time to watch it on the big screen?

    Jump

  • I don't really like watching video on my phone, so I'll pretty much always go for the nearest bigger screen unless there's no option to do that.

    I honestly think most of the time I would just not watch the video rather than watch on my phone

  • Over 80% of 16 to 24-year-olds (in the UK) would vote to rejoin the EU, ITV poll finds

    Jump

  • To be fair, even the oldest in that cohort are too young to have voted in the referendum

  • What are some of your favorite songs in a language you do not speak?

  • I was originally gonna say Sigur Ros but that's already been covered

    My shout out goes to Niteworks then, who sadly did their farewell tour last year. One of my favourites:

  • TIL drinking, smoking, games, etc are all "social lubricants" for making conversations easier.

    Jump

  • I don't really smoke anymore, but the smoking ban in the UK (no smoking indoors from 2007) created the concept of the smoking area outside a pub/club and some of my best friendships in life ultimately started in that Petri dish

    A smoking area outside anywhere in the northwest of the UK about 10-15 years ago was just peerless in calibre

    Marjorie Taylor Greene: "Americans want rich powerful pedos and rapists strung up on gallows, even if it collapses our government"

  • I think the Napoleonic "Never interrupt your enemy when they are making a mistake" probably also applies here even though she's not strictly doing that here

  • Roses are red, cabinets have shelves...

    Jump

  • It would be lovely if they all would

  • If the rain keeps up, it won't come down.

    Jump

  • When the rain keeps up, it was up,

    And when the rain falls down, it falls down,

    And when the rain keeps only halfway up,

    It falls neither up nor down

  • Trump touts bill that could make voting harder for married women

    Jump

  • And who else?

    (To be clear married women should be able to vote, just like everybody else)

  • Texas Republican Primary having a normal one

    Jump

  • Doesn't that list just describe america?

    Yes even the dog thing, plenty of people with shitty landlords

  • Shit, I'd pay $9

    Jump

  • I've never seen any phone tell me why someone is calling, only who

    Frankly, I've gotten to the end of many phone calls and still not known why someone thought they needed to interrupt my day with a phone call.

    I'm glad this is an increasingly common view though tbh, we all got phones in our pockets a few decades ago, and no one really stopped to set the new line of etiquette that: yes, 99% of the time it's pretty damn rude to think what you want to talk about with someone is more important than anything they could possibly be up to at that moment. Because that's what cold calling someone without arranging it first really is, when you boil it down

  • Tbf the kind of cultural fusion cuisine you get when another culture successfully imports another culture's cuisine, is super interesting to me. I'd say this stands separately from intentional fusion restaurants, this is more something that happens organically as a cuisine is adapted to the ingredients and tastes somewhere away from where it is invented.

    The classic examples are Tex-mex and British curries, but every country has a few things like this. Japanese Italian is a pretty cool experience, not least of all because now I think about it there's some places that are straight up Japanese/Italian cultural fusion, but others are more Japanese/Italian-American, so this thing can go deeper. And don't get me started on the godlike German/Turkish magic happening on the streets of Berlin

    Always been a fan of trying local cuisine when I've travelled, but I've more recently been trying to add places like the above into the mix, as it's genuinely always been interesting to me

  • truly I am cultured

  • I was gonna say in the UK, a lot of modern slang over here comes from MLE (Multicultural London English)

    Clearly this makes up a key part of our respective shitposting R&D divisions

  • Didn't he do boxing for a bit first? Ngl I don't really keep up with him

  • I don't like any reality where the Japanese death forest YouTuber who decided to play boxer, is anything resembling a voice of reason

  • 64GB of DDR5 RAM now costs more than a MacBook Air - memory prices have surged 300% in just six months
