Most of the stories are about how the laws don’t work and how to circumvent them, yes.

Blast from the past right there.

It sounds like how I think I sound, so nothing like what I really sound like in recordings.

Can’t believe you’ve been doing these for nearly a year! Are you gonna keep going after the anniversary?

I grew up in Asia and had a chipped playstation 1 as a kid. It allowed it to read copies, was pretty standard stuff over there the copies could be found in legit stores and everything.

Anyway it started struggling to read the CDs. We figured out if we turned it upside down, it would be able to read them no problem. I suspect it was gravity making the lens come a bit closer to the CDs but don’t know for sure.

It was certainly funny having it upside down, worked a charm.

I donate monthly to my instance.

I tried retail again last year in a similar way, they’ve actually built so much mechanics now to catch up. But it still felt like a massive task to catch up to actual active players. Private server is a good shout, I’ll take a look next time I get the itch.

If I could I’d still be playing wow but it’s just not the same without the plentiful free time for it.

Came in here to say detectorists, now I’m leaving with a new show to rewatch, score!

Still hurts.

Dunno about favourite but I recently watched the surfer and it kinda hit a weird spot I didn’t know I have. Was pretty good.

Eh I have no knowledge about tracheotomy besides what I’ve seen on TV but I mean if push comes to shove I’m just gonna jab a pen tube in the victim’s throat man, it’s gotta be worth a try. /s

Yep I have a kid and run my own business which is very demanding. I’m always strapped for time and I still find a little bit for gaming here and there. I do have to select for low investment games like rocket league, indie games, etc. I wish I could play WoW all day but that’s a bridge too far.

Can’t tell if you’re taking the piss haha.

Yes it’s the right long term goal, but the US is nowhere near ready for strong nationalised enterprises, they would just stop getting funding and die. There is a requirement for strong, positive minded government and a shared understanding of the benefits of having nationalised societal services before it can work.

Olive in french. Boring word I guess.

I thought it was older, short but sweet.

Nah not at all tbh, you can get very smooth deceleration with it and it doesn’t feel floaty or whatever, it does take a tiny adjustment to how you drive, you don’t coast anymore but rather you can finely control your deceleration by how much you lift the accelerator, it’s quite nice to be honest I always drive it in that mode (even if it’s not real one pedal).

I think some cars also turn on the hazards automatically if you really hammer the breaks.
