@kravietz @chowderman @Ruth_Mottram @blabberlicious This is also the case in Ireland, where we - in spite of being very sparsely populated relative to other European countries - are in the grip of a housing crisis, because developers don’t want to build what people need. And I’m living in a house which probably barely meets the loose regulations of its time.

@kravietz @chowderman @Ruth_Mottram @blabberlicious (Before the financial crisis in 2008-2010, developers told the local authorities what they would build, and to what low standard. The local authorities were for some reason powerless to intervene. They would self-certify. After the crisis, the tables turned, and the developers, if they wished to build, would have to meet the high specifications, including density. I know this because I live in a 'before and after' example by the same developer)

@stux I think that if you removed Elon and his 'yes people' today, it may be too far gone to fix anyway. If a group of talented management and technical people came in now and set about fixing it, the uncertainty and lack of runway (money and time) would implode what's left anyway. The damage has been done, and is permanent.

@stux I could totally play a Nerf Rival game like this with my kid.

@stux They’re apparently ultra right-wing, so while I doubt that they’ll ‘win’, they’re… not good people. Still, if it means Russia’s fighting itself, it’s good for Ukraine

@stux Same in Ireland. It’s presented as ‘the farmers’ but turns out that it’s always a few huge industrial farmers ‘preserving the old ways’ while also undercutting small farmers with scale.

@stux When she was around one, my kid had shoes that had grippy sides, and her feet nearly got sucked in to the sides and ground up. But luckily it was stopped in time and her feet were small and escaped. The shoes were chewed up.

@Wolven @katrintheresa He is currently 'performing' outside the Scottish Parliament: https://www.lbc.co.uk/news/graham-linehan-cancelled-two-venues-edinburgh-festival-fringe/I should note that this all came about because he was criticised for an old-fashioned transphobic joke in a series he wrote. He could have taken it on board, or... he could set his life on fire in a tornado of hate, so everyone left him.

@Wolven I think about this sometimes. Absolutely agree. It’s amazing that they’ve gotten six movies out of this, two are fantastic, and four are at best forgettable. I think it’s interesting that while a generally forgettable, bad movie, Genisys had the seeds of a good idea (shifting timelines) and squandered it. I would like to see that explored in the series as an idea.

@Wolven Haha, I had very mixed feelings about that one myself. It's 50% of a great movie, and then some dubious stuff. But at least they got away from some of the shackles of the origin story.I really think that there was so much that could've been done between 'there is no fate but what we make' and the time travel conundrum.

@Wolven I get this at intervals for, for example, the Irish/Asian meal called a spice bag. So I order it and feel rotten the next day. But I must have it once in a while.It’s like the learning wore off.

@Wolven He didn’t do it. The ADL and George Soros injectified a matrix modifier to transmodulicate the code, and… you’re smirking because you knew, right?

The underdog browser innovator... decides to run web developers (their remaining champions) out of business. That seems smart. https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/ai/mozilla-solo-artifical-intelligence-website-creator-ai/
