The whole point of bringing out a new generation of hardware is to make it work in much better ways of operation than the last one. By default it is not going to run the older generation of games because it doesn’t work in the same way. Now they could spend a lot of effort in making it able to play the old games and work in the old way, but what is their incentive to do that, compared say in starting work on the next generation or releasing the console earlier?

No one secured the ladder or the roof or responded to alerts of a gunman on the roof. There’s only two angles where you could shoot the ear without it entering the head, must be a million to one shot… but the real question to ask is…. a teenage boy looking at porn?… that is crazy!

I said this to my uncle once “me and my dad bought stuff at auction then probably spent more fixing it up than it was worth”. He said “but it helped you didn’t it?”, yeah it definitely did. Fixing stuff definitely helps the soul, if it helps you, do it and don’t worry about the cost.

I am also confused what is wrong with this, but English was not my strong point!

When you have literally created something out of a horror movie it’s time to stop and reassess your choices.

Bought his candidacy with £100000 then betted against himself. Should have abstained, that’s tfe Labour way!

Another unbiased article by the BBC on behalf of the Conservative Party.

Despite Labour dropping their 28bn green investment pledge

Maybe Harper was keener to keep his seat than his green pledge?

They are technically correct!

It’s another attack on families on the margins of society. I am sure Kier will abstain from doing anything.

I will probably do the same. Never really understood tactical voting. Is it just so you can say you voted for the winner? Realistically one vote here or there is unlikely to swing it so surely just vote for the candidate/party you want regardless of their chances?

Labour abstain, can’t even decide if it’s bad to sh@t in the lake or not 🤦

Batman, tries to solve the cities problems by getting himself a load of expensive toys.

Or the police weren’t wearing their uniforms???

I would say I’m reasonable at picking up hints, usually takes me about 4-10 years though.

In 2015, Indiana’s then-governor, Mike Pence, signed a law making the state’s immunity law retroactive to Aug. 26, 1999, four days before the city of Gary initially filed its lawsuit.

How can you sign a retroactive law? Essentially making things legal which were illegal when they were committed and what about criminalising things which were legal? Could people be prosecuted for things that became crimes after they did them?

I am really interested in small scale farm automation but not 3k interested! Keep meaning to automate irrigation which would save me a lot of time watering but not cost too much. Cnoc farming would be a fun project though

Thank you for your hard work. I feel that a delay of a few hours is acceptable for a voluntary service. I am sure there are many commercial services which have much worse communication.

I personally feel that being able to discuss piracy but banning communities that have links that actively promote piracy seems like a sensible safe legal position. This is probably what I would do if there was even a possibility I might be legally liable for an instance.

I can understand users frustration but I don’t think it’s fair to take it out on the admins. It is a thankless task which people do to benefit their community. The great thing with the fediverse is that you have other low cost options to turn to if an instance no longer works for you.

My cat does this, he’s such a shit, a minute later he will hop on my lap for cuddles, “let’s just ignore the fact I just savaged you.” I then of course reward his had behaviour with strokes and cuddles!

I think the credit card companies cover that usually. I suppose the question is if you are in the UK hacking a US account where is the crime taking place?

Israel should have to pay for its crimes

Yeah I mean the language of grooming and exploitation tends not to be associated with hacking. However a 14 yo without any friends and a difficult home life starts getting admiration from a peer group for hacking into systems could soon lead to them getting drawn into greater illegal acts to gain approval.

While it has real consequences, I think hacking can feel a little less real than breaking into a bank, especially for kids. I am certain if the money spent by the authorities in 52 years incarceration was invested into rehabilitation, society would benefit much more.

Should he be tried in the country he committed the alleged crimes?

Plan for oil corporations

She’s on a diet

Can you abstain from voting for your own legislation?

A Scotland Yard spokesman said: “Our prosecutions team, which deals with speeding offences, has taken legal advice and the location of the 50mph sign would not have impacted the enforcement.”

Often the speed camera is set a little above the limit. I think this means that if the cars had been doing 40 or less up to the sign accelerating to 50 at this point would not have triggered the camera…. Or maybe just no shits given..

Mum: we’re definitely going the wrong way

Me: how do you know?

Mum: because we need to go south and we are currently going north

Me: how do you know we are going north?

Mum: because the sun sets in the west

Me: oh…

I don’t think it’s free but it is free-er . You have an admittedly shitty balance of power between politicians who want to be voted for and capitalists who want to make money and voter/consumers. The population, who as a collective, want excellent public and private services with low prices/ taxes and generally not too concerned how that happens. Don’t get me wrong there are lots of fantastic people in the world and most people I meet I think are genuinely decent. A person is smart but people are dumb.

It shows a laziness and a lack of interest in the skill of driving! I bought my first automatic last year. I generally like it, with auto hold and cruise control it makes driving very easy. I don’t like it on ice and snow, no idea what the car is doing. Similarly pulling away quickly, never quite now which gear it’s going to choose when or when the turbo is going to kick in which can make things a bit unpredictable.

Nah I think they just got a judge who gives a shit about humanity…

The Section of the Public Order Act 1986 lays out rules for how police can control “public assemblies” – defined as a gathering of two or more people in a public place.

Police officers can issue them if they “reasonably believe” that the protest “may result in serious public disorder, serious damage to property or serious disruption to the life of the community”.

It can also do so if it belives the purpose of the organisers is to “intimidate others”.

What surprised me was this is the older legislation. I thought they would use the newer anti protest legislation which even legislates against a protest being too noisy.

But this also blocks supplies for the hostages doesn’t it?

They will be bad less often…So an improvement in quality, no?

What if you didn’t have any integrity to start with?

It was meant to be a joke! The cat on the window sill looks like he has just been painted and is drying off. The other two are on the shelf waiting their turn.

Please excuse my cryptic and weird sense of humour!

Do you paint cats for a living?

Who is shitting glass bottles?

I got two streets mixed up and sent a couple to the wrong side of town. My family asked me why I did that. I asked them why they didn’t speak up, they were literally next to me, did they think I was pranking them? The street the couple were looking for is nearly opposite our house!

I think you’re technically correct in this instance.
