I was confused about it being called a “Stowaway” in the UK, as they were always called “Walkman” as far as I was aware - though apparently it was indeed called the “Stowaway” from mid-1979 for at least a few months, possibly even a year or two. It was called the “Walkman” from “the early 1980s”.

…and if you make a new post about the same issue, they say “this has been asked before. Search the forum. Locking this thread” :D

Rest assured that sometimes only half the text gets pasted.

It’s good to know Brexit is only temporary.

It can’t be that old, I mean Discord is that brand new thing, right? Couple of years old at most?

This always got the idea across quite nicely:
“I’m beautiful in my way
'Cause God makes no mistakes
I’m on the right track, baby
I was born this way”

There’s some little differences - for example, Qwant doesn’t spam you with irrelevant “Apple Maps” results on every search, as DDG has for a few years.

If the MAGAs don’t care about Trump’s “Epstein related activities”, then Putin’s supposed video blackmail isn’t worth anything.

I hope they have a “packet of crisps/chips” pocket on the other side.

Though that sort of makes sense for traffic moving smoothly and consistently, I thought speed limiters on large/heavy vehicles was mostly due to the braking time/distance rather them fitting amongst speeds of other traffic?

I think everyone’s got the CAD/3D programs covered, so a slightly “out there” answer:

If you’re just doing 2D blueprints for yourself, do you actually just need a 2D vector program for doing a scale drawing with measurements?

I’ve done a lot of floorplans / layouts/ site maps etc using Inkscape, for instance.

It depends on exactly what you’re wanting out the other end - so you may be lacking a lot of the features in a full CAD program, but the learning curve is comparatively so shallow that you might have a working plan by the end of the day, rather than the end of the month.

Many cute rabbits playing at your wedding does sound pretty good to be fair.

She clearly means mid 1800s Russian composers “Mussorgsky, Cui and Rimsky-Korsakov”.

I’m a big fan of this one. I’d recommend it to anyone who likes Rimworld, Dwarf Fortress, Space Haven etc. Seems to be in committed and constant development for both content and bugfixes.

If you want to use normal socks you need an adapter.

I may agree with some of your comment, but “trump” has definitely meant fart (at least in some parts of the UK) from at least the mid 1980s until the present day. It’s seemingly still used by young people as well, though not as commonly as it was when I was younger (though I did hear a “who’s fucking trumped, it fucking stinks” on the bus last week).

We all laughed at Donald Trump when we first heard his name in the 1990s, though most people didn’t believe he was real (and it was hard to check such things, pre-internet). We certainly didn’t believe he had a wife called something like “I want to trump”.

Though we did play Top Trumps, we also definitely laughed at its name, and amongst our group of friends, introduced flatulence-based punishments for the loser.

Here’s it in some dictionaries: “(intransitive) British slang to expel intestinal gas through the anus” Collins English Dictionary

“to release gas from the bowels through the bottom”
Cambridge English Dictionary

“slang or colloquial. The act of breaking wind audibly”
Oxford English Dictionary

I don’t know why this matters to me so much :D

Maybe I’m just scared that our language is dying.

There’s also ones where it uses OSM data for management games about the following:
Delivery driving - Transport Inc or Delivery Inc
Emergency services - 911 or 112 operator
Zombie defence - Infection-free Zone

Half of these are on sale on Steam at 80% off at the moment, so worth a look if you’re into that kind of thing.

You say “best”, “highest performing” etc, but we asked a panel of immorally wealthy, elderly white male sex offenders who their ideal upper management employee was - and they unanimously suggested other immorally wealthy, elderly white male sex offenders, and suggested that employing anyone else is a DEI hire.

Imagine a jigsaw, except it’s table mounted (so you move the wood, not the saw), and the blade is really, really narrow and held top and bottom. Good for very fine work - like a powered coping saw or fretsaw.

Well, now you are the new Bigfoot. Time to go and hide in the wilderness and scare the locals with footprints.
