Ah this is the London Hackney Cab flourish. It’s kind of like yelling ‘Yeehaw’ as the bull leaps into the air and somehow you are still attached.

Not sure if the future tense ‘will’ is appropriate here

This is the point. Whether ice is likely to form is a very important aspect of weather.

Is it going snow instead of rain. Are the roads going to be treacherous. Will my water supply stop flowing.

Back in the day when cellphones could only take calls.

There’s a bit of a difference in sentencing between premeditated murder and manslaughter

They’ve still got a good reputation for news. So good that after a few combative interviews with Tory MPs (back when they were in power a few years ago) the Culture Secretary wanted to sell the channel off.

Don’t get me wrong they can still produce the occasional good comedy or documentary but they used to do so consistently.

You won’t get any disagreement from me on the corrosive effects of advertising.

I do think that Channel 4 used to regularly produce greater content than it can now. But that probably is more to do with advertising revenue being leeched away to online platforms and the growth of its direct competitors.

Well the distinction here is that TV license paying citizens of the UK don’t get the ads.

In the UK the BBC only has advertisements for its own content, nothing else. As bad as its got since Tony Blair and David Cameron both undermined its independence and quality, at least there are no ad breaks in its shows.

Starmer seems to disagree.

Well… in my mind and in my car, we can’t rewind, we’ve gone too far.

Oh-a-a-a-Oh

Microfilms used to be sold as having a life expectancy of up 500 years. But in my experience they were a pain to use and the machines costly to maintain. The films would tear regularly too. Also the quality of the recorded image could be very poor sometimes.

Actually this was foretold 5000yrs ago in Ireland.

I remember enjoying Phase IV. But it’s pacing was slow. At the time I thought that the ending had more compelling sci-fi chops than the rest. So it would have been better to trim the movie down to half it’s length; put that ending in the middle of the movie; then progress the story from that point.

The usual cycle of tech-bro capitalism would put them currently on the early acquire market saturation stage. So it’s unlikely that they are currently charging what they will when they are established and have displaced lots of necessary occupations.

That’s such a Kissinger frame of mind.

Order with injustice over justice with chaos (sic).
