Yeah, I’m Welsh myself. I just wondered how somebody who struggled with Wmffre / Humphrey would do with the whole Wrwgwai thing. Some English speakers get it immediately others get a headache thinking about it.

Having read your comment I’d like your views on “Wrwgwai” - the South American country of Uruguay.
I used rhythmbox on a system running Mint to move music to and from an iPod nano 2. It was fairly straight forward. Save the transfers before closing the programme and you’re good to go.
Enough with your psyop, Bill. Go back to trying to cure malaria to atone for your past sins.
The difference in usage that badboy would get during a football game versus a gig at the same stadium would be enormous. Things like flush cycle frequency and when to turn the system on/off to conserve water. Nothing massively sinister - boring facility management stuff mostly.
I remember that now you mention it. Bartering with a super power seemed crazy to me back then. It’s amazing how little seems to have genuinely improved for Russians (specifically) since the fall of the USSR - we had high hopes of a new age but… gestures broadly at the current state of Europe and shakes head.
The fact that both me and you are questioning whether this is satire or not worries me greatly.
Have you been watching “Reefer Madness” and thinking it’s a documentary? Spoiler: it isn’t.
Again, whilst your opinion is not without merit, I’d still prefer to encounter spun news stories than to not encounter them at all, and, if you want a global picture of what’s happening all over the world then there isn’t much choice but to read the wires (Reuters, AP etc) or visit a global broadcaster.
Here’s the thing, with media organisations such as the BBC, Al Jazeera etc the funding source is clear and obvious and you can factor in an appropriate degree of editorial spin where applicable. Now, if your evening news programme was “brought to you in association with Poca-Pola” the giant soft drink company… do you think they’d even run that story about the direct link between consumption of carbonated drinks and obesity? If your technology programme is sponsored by the tech giant Googosoft do you think they’d run that feature on how good Linux can be? No, they wouldn’t. When media exists only to make profit that is their only goal - profit.
I pretty much agree with all of that but wanted to add that when BlackBerry BB10 was discontinued (miss you, Z30) I had the option of Microsoft, Google or Apple. I chose the least bad of a poor bunch… The original monopolists or an ad-obsessed stalker were of no interest to me.
Just had to check I wasn’t miraculously back on Apollo trawling the Snoo site. Thanks for the laugh…
Good. I’m glad. I had my suspicions that was the case but it’s nice to have it confirmed by an insider. I always struggled to believe that an entire nation of so many millions of people would have a one size fits all pro/anti stance on any one topic; it’d be absurd.
Are you familiar with sarcasm / irony / satire? I’m quoting and subsequently mangling a slogan from 1985. (c. Forty years ago) Surely you haven’t taken that comment at face value?
Pepsi - the choice of a new generation… of woke, pronoun-shifting libtards. As an aside I like your spelling. It’s reminded me to listen to Ice Cube’s Amerikkka’s Most Wanted again.
It’s a well known internet phenomena that’s actually called the “The Scunthorpe Problem”. Wikipedia has an article about it. Scunny isn’t the only town that suffers. On a side note the Spanish name Enrique can be shortened to the sounds “key-kay” which would be spelled “Kike” which is the spelling of an ethnic slur in English. I believe Sony deleted/banned some ps accounts because of this.
Yeah - in non US places gun ownership only means one thing: you own a gun. It says nothing about your politics. And yes, US democrats being referred to as “left” is ridiculous. The Democrat party wouldn’t even be a centrist party in most (western) democracies.
Well, the article was written eight months prior to product release; so its value and relevancy takes a nose dive immediately. The very first phrase : “Tech companies want us isolated and constantly staring at screens because it drives profit.” shows an embarrassing misunderstanding of AR - perhaps the reviewer got confused with VR? They are two very different things and should not be confused. Those were enough red flags that the “journalist” had an agenda to follow and kind of played themselves there.
If it was a written prior to the products release by someone who had never used it, then yes. Yes, it probably does.
Do you know where I can buy a 2 mile extension cable to get to my nearest plug socket this morning?
