We would definitely pronounce our as “are” in some cases., usually when referring to a person. “Our kid” or “Our Jack” would have been pronounced “are”.

That bed is a Murphy bed that folds up into that cabinet at the head of the bed. The straps aren’t to hold a person in place, they hold the mattress and bedding in place when it’s packed away.

We still have the UK implementation of GDPR. That didn’t go away when we left the EU.

We won’t have any changes to it that might have happened since brexit but we didn’t remove the law either.

I always find the statement “we care about your privacy” to be a bit meaningless when they then say that they’ll share data with 100s of partners.

That’s what I’m thinking. The homeowner installed it to fake meeting code.

You’re right about the glowy baseball bats but I think that Jedi combat is a tough one to pull off well. You can force pull any of the lower enemies into a one shot with the light sabre as it is and there’s no reason that you shouldn’t be able to do that with all human sized enemies that aren’t force users except that it would make for a dull game.

The loot is shit but I don’t know what more a Jedi needs other than armour or blasters but they don’t really use them. It is very weird that I had to find something in a box for me to get the idea to not shave my beard so close.

Wipeout 2048 was my favourite of all time and is available in the Wipeout Omega Collection. I wouldn’t say that it’s better than the more recent titles but it was just the one that grabbed me.

I also really liked:

• Dirt Rally was ace on the PSVR
• Burnout Paradise
• Need for Speed: Most Wanted (the second one)

When I played games on my PC I ended up spending more time configuring my Steam controller than I did playing the game.

A classic example of perfect being the enemy of good.

I don’t see the problem with this search result. You searched for Lemmy clients and the first link gives a list of Lemmy clients for Android. It happens to be on Reddit but it does match your search.

Yes, but their edit says that it shouldn’t take so long to get to IMDB which is what I was commenting on.

The fact that there is only one result is awful.

That’s Amazon’s way of working. They push the content that they want you to use over what you want to use.

In fairness, IMDB is right there on the first info card.

I guess that you had an agreement that specified how you were to cancel the contract.

It’s not really a good idea to just stop paying companies that you have an agreement with because you could get reported as a non-payer which could affect your credit rating.

Edit: I’m not defending shitty practices that make it difficult to cancel or the shitty way that they handled this.

Hopefully, the UK is going to take a couple of steps to the left shortly.

If it does, it’s not because the country is moving left but because the right fucked up.

I used to hate that they had a consent option and a legitimate interest option for the same thing. It wasn’t clear what would happen if I agreed to one and not the other.

Then they started being explicit and saying that these “partners” require consent and these others require you to object to their legitimate interest and now I hate it more because there are hundreds of these “partners”.

There was a piece on a fairly recent Smashing Security podcast that said that some car manufacturers are sending data to the insurance companies anyway.

I completed this game and thought to myself “I’ve never heard of that 7 letter game” 😂

They seem to have things backwards.

You don’t set expected sales based on the cost of development. You set the cost of development based on the expected sales.

I do drink frequently when I go cycling or walking.

Just because it’s essential for life doesn’t mean that people have to like it. I really don’t like drinking water unless it’s just out of the fridge or cooler. I always add cordial to it.
