Maybe vote for somebody who will give you better public transport and cycling infrastructure.

But then that goes for America too.

And it doesn’t help that actually running your own working mail server in 2026 is a fucking ball-ache. Especially if you don’t want every big provider to mark all your mail as spam. Email has been captured by big tech.

Even people who self host a lot of stuff usually don’t bother with it.

That’s the goal.

There’s going to be so many confused retirees.

So remind me how much the Switch 2 retailed for while the tariffs were in place and how much it retails for now?

Ubisoft is French. Embracer Group is Swedish. Plenty of money even if they ignore the Americans or Saudis or whichever shady group owns EA now.

Because pets aren’t leaving anyone large sums of cash in their will.

Who will win?

One million angry gamers, or one little bribey boy?

We shall see.

I don’t like Adobe, but you have to understand that their business is not selling software, it’s keeping people locked into their platform.

A rival being free matter not a jot when you’ve got decades of work in Adobe formats, and no end of experience with Adobe software. Especially when the company is paying for it all anyway.

To be fair, I’m much more surprised when a decades old band is crap.

It’s OK, nobody born after that will be able to afford them.

There’s a reason vapes got popular, and part of that is a pack of 20 ciggies costing £15+.

So now everyone smells of either fruit salads or weed.

Well it didn’t cost him anything.

The more time goes on, the more I think Sony’s approach of adding games after a year or so was the right one.

You can’t have a subscription service giving day one access to all your content, and provide good content, and have it at a reasonable price. Something has to give. Even when you’ve got as much money as Microsoft.

The glorious cloud gaming future they envisaged never happened. You’re still limited to people willing to shell out for some gaming hardware.

I don’t care that Steam has an effective monopoly on digital games. That’s fine. Games can and are on many other services for PC, but gamers want them on Steam. Fine. Whatever. You can even buy games from other services, get Steam codes, and use them as if you got them from Steam, even though Steam get no money from that sale. That’s amazing. Really.

But.

They killed the idea that you can own a PC game. I mean legally own it, be able to sell your copy of it to another person, and no longer have it yourself. You could do that with physical. You still can with physical console games. But on PC that concept is dead. It’s not coming back. And Valve did that. You now just rent them. Fine, you think, Valve isn’t going anywhere. But one day Valve will be gone, and this will matter. No king rules forever.

And the least said about lootboxes and hats and all that scummy crap the better.

Terrorvision - Tequila.

Mostly because the version that got played on Radio 1 non-stop for about a year wasn’t anything like the original version they made. It was a remix. Nobody really seemed to notice this until they turned up for live shows in their party frocks and got met with a room full of rock fans.

Well, that’s about the price for some high fat mince.

A decent steak cut is a lot more.

And we eat mushy peas and yeast extract.

Apart from the carrots I can’t even tell you what’s on that plate.

Well I guess that’s fine. It’s a long time since I was at school but I don’t think hands can get pregananant.

Good point, don’t wank in the swimming pool either.
