Tldr: no, it’s not alien.

True. +1p on bananas would probably cover it in a fortnight

I do love it when a big company has to spend hundreds of thousands on Barristers fees AND loses.

Furniture generally, beds specifically

It’s one of two magazines I still buy; the other being Viz comic, the other end of the spectrum.

I used to enjoy Fortean Times too; not sure whether the quality of the articles declined, or if my tastes got more refined. Probably a bit of both

Will you guys stop messing around and just give the length in football pitches or double decker buses?

The immigants? I knew it was them!

It is. Poverty breeds ignorance, and with poverty on the rise…

Ok, it’s not Projectivity. It looks like iPlayer has been removed from the app store on that device, so it can’t be updated to the fixed version. Boo.

Workaround!! If you have BBC Sounds installed, keep that, but uninstall iPlayer. Then, open BBC Sounds, and it’ll say “can’t find iPlayer, please install it” and that gives a direct link to install the latest iPlayer version. No idea why BBC iPlayer isn’t showing up in search results on the Play Store though.

Aha… so it’s Projectivity is it? I’ll try disabling and see if it’ll then let me update iPlayer to the latest version (I couldn’t find a way with it installed)

Link is to article about post office?

I found time spent playing alone has seen a gradual increase over the years. Once upon a time I could leave them alone for all of 15 seconds before the call of ‘daaaaaadeeeee’ came along. Nowadays they can manage over an hour by themeselves. I’m hoping this trend continues.

I really want to love it, but gameplay-wise it’s got little in common with later TES games, and there’s still plenty of things functionally broken about it. Probably my favourite gaming / let’s play youtuber is Many A True Nerd, and even he gave up after three episodes. I think it’s worth checking out that series for a decent overview.

They are confusing, but I can at least find them eventually. I can’t remember exactly what it was that the problem was with my last Linux install… I think my secondary monitor was stuck at 640x480 resolution or something, and I couldn’t find a way to fix it that didn’t involve the command line

I’ll start using Mint… heck, any version of Linux… as soon as they introduce a proper UI for a plethora of system settings. If I ever have to use a command line for anything but THE most esoteric, potentially system-damaging scenarios, the O/s has failed in my book. (Windows user since 3.1, never lasted more than a day with Linux)
