To tell the truth I backed over the last two with my car.

Fortunately they turned out to be Nazis.

Remember this moment when Nigel Farage sweeps to power in 2028 on a wave of youth votes, brings back the porn and sells the NHS.

That is Aldi levels of copying right there.

Refuses to listen. Implies opponents of it are nonces.

Yes they'll all be shocked Pikachu when we're swearing in PM Nigel Farage...

It's not about porn. It's about tracking your every move online.

The only thing that scares a horrible corporation is another horrible corporation.

The turntable isn't even on the top of the hifi separates unit. Pathetic!

Exactly. I didn't even hear the word "paedophile" until 2000 when Sarah Payne was murdered.

In school in the 90s there were always 13 and 14 year old girls with older boyfriends, like we're talking 19 or 20 with cars and they could buy them cigarettes and booze.

We never really thought much of it.

They had very much made this shit normal, and I'm glad we now don't.

I guess that Americans are used to seeing charges applied at the point of sale anyway, for sales tax and so on.

In the UK there price on the shelf is the price you pay, and if for some reason it isn't, then you can guarantee several arguments a day.

We had a card surcharge ban bought in a few years back. The shops aren't allowed to charge extra, and unless you're employing family members or not declaring the cash (and for a lot of small takeaways, it's probably both of those) it probably works out more expensive to handle the cash.

 
 
 

Because it turns out SW/Lloyds replaced their computer system last July, and since then none of my pension payments have been going into my account.

Our accountant has had to chase them up since somebody noticed at the start of the year. And only now have they admitted it, and making noises about fixing it.

 

Is anyone else getting problems with charging from an external USB charger after the latest DualSense update?

We updated both controllers, and now neither will charge from an Anker USB charger we've been using. They both charge from the PS5 itself. The charger works fine for phones.

It's like they've updated them to no longer charge from any source other than the PS5, and maybe official PS5 charging docks. Don't have one of those to test.

Annoying to say the least, as it means playing while charging now needs a cable trailing across the living room floor.
