That summary is one of the worst I’ve ever seen.

That second line sounds like a comedic Bond villain line.

And it’s awesome.

“knock knock”

“Who’s there”

“The interrupting cow”

“The interrupting cow wh…” “MOOOOOOO”

Jeez, the reminds me of the stickers on the Sam and Max box, proclaiming it to be the “full talkie” edition. Amazing.

Ah fair enough. My UV-5RH has the ATC group of frequencies (at least the UK ones) and even though you don’t get the local ATC chatter, you get the responses from the aircraft.

I don’t live too far from the coast but I haven’t played with the marine frequencies or channels yet.

Not sure where you live (specifically, how close you are to an airport) but a rug laid out on the garden; a tablet with FlightRadar24 open; and the radio tuned to your local airport approach frequency makes for a good waste of an hour or two.

Depends what legal jurisdiction you live in but generally you’re alright unless the transmission isn’t specifically for you and is encrypted; or you start to interfere with the licensed frequencies.

I mean, I’m not Rooney’s biggest fan here but he’s not wrong.

It’ll absolutely suck for a few years while the policy gets ironed out and applied consistently, and I’m sure it’ll cause problems when someone gets docked three points for a supporter racism infraction, and lose the title by two points.

I don’t think the arseholes who spout this nonsense really care about personal consequences - they made their decision to open their trap and shout bollocks - but with the tribalism that football attracts with it, maybe seeing actual physical and financial consequences for their club will shut them the fuck up…

…at least until they leave the stadium.

I do quite like the self-awareness of Bubsy 3D being absolute donkey tonk. The redrawn sprites in 3D looks cool, let’s see if they learn the lessons from thirty-ish years ago.

meep meep

Yeah, I went to a short notice concert in Laaaahndan last year when hotel prices were ludicrous. A same day domestic flight cost fifty notes .

I boarded with no luggage - just my watch, phone, wallet, and a phone charger - expected the bare minimum and wasn’t disappointed. Like Ronseal, it did exactly what it said on the tin.

Ryanair is like the single rider queue for rides.

They’re handy if you need to go somewhere fast and cheap, but asking any more of them is just going to lead to frustrating and lots of extra fees.

At this point, their reputation is so well-publicised (and even celebrated) that nobody really has any real right to moan once they’ve actively selected them as a carrier.

no, because line needs to go up

Seriously though, I agree with you. It’s just so wasteful. It’s really disheartening to try and do my eco friendly bit to reduce waste (particularly of power) and then data centres just piss away the ground we’ve collectively made.

I thought it was the bastard offspring of Duke and Guile for a moment there.

I still think of the National Enquirer ripoff that was included in the Zak McKraken box. Young me didn’t realise it was a hint book masquerading as a faux-gossip rag.

The trinkets and inclusions in big box games were cool, whether they were required (Lenslok, codewheels etc) or otherwise.

It’s been a while since I played, I only get involved in the live events these days.

I don’t think there are classes in Battle Royale, but Save the World had different “classes” in the loosest sense.

I got a load of grief for playing Fortnite as Penny, mainly from a family friend who kept banging on about “oh look, that’s his type there!” or “like a buxom blonde, do you?”

I’m like motherfucker she’s British and she’s an engineer so I’m choosing to play as her because that’s awesome as fuck, not because what’s between the legs you fucking buffoon

If she’d started popping off about just playing Fortnite I’d have been “yeah fair enough mate, maybe I am a shithead” but the whole implied “you’re a guy so you must fancy her if you’re using a girl model” just really got on my tits… to use a poorly timed expression.

I’m away down to the WRWC in a week or two as well, off down to Monchestoh to watch a Scotland game.

I don’t know what the fuck is going on that weekend in the city but the prices for hotel rooms are ludicrous. Maybe there’s the first big Man United game of the season on or something.

Otherwise, a week of chilling with the bairns before they fuck off back to school. Bliss.

No. The “benefits system” or “safety net” or whatever is really quite basic and not fit for supporting a modern family, contrary to what the Daily Fail would have people believe. Losing a job is devastating financially and emotionally, as it would be elsewhere. The main positive is healthcare is still free regardless of whether you’re drawing a giro or £250k a year.

It still takes massive balls to stand together like that and fuck him off. Good effort.

Stop all the downloadin’!

Amazing. Somehow they managed to make it look almost as good as a full price title at the time!
