They’ll probably say that it’s for the environment and that you should use a reusable bag for it.

Companies are good at doing things to benefit the environment when it also benefits their bottom line.

Just because I can tell that something isn’t funny doesn’t mean that I can write something funny myself.

I think that they’re making a poor attempt to point out that the proportional part is based on money not people.

Yeah but it isn’t really redundant (even if it could have been worded better). Someone might believe that the other shareholders have some say in how the company operates when they won’t.

So, as far as control over the company is concerned, the Saudis have 100% control even though they don’t have 100% of the shares.

I can’t see how that’s true as she didn’t even get to a point where our own MPs agreed on what Brexit should be and didn’t have a big enough majority to push anything through. Then she proper fucked up by announcing a general election the result of which was that she had even less power.

In my view she simply wasn’t effective enough to have fucked us forever.

Theresa May wasn’t a party leader when we chose to leave the EU.

David Cameron was the leader of the Conservatives at the time of the referendum, the one who promised the referendum to get votes for his party, the one who greatly underestimated the fight that was needed to be able to stay in the EU and the one who ran away from the steaming pile of shit that he’d created.

Does anyone think that Boeing will take note of this and change their behaviour?

But discouraging the “wrong” people from voting is a deliberate tactic.

We used to call the code that determined NPC behaviour AI.

It wasn’t AI as we know it now but it was intended to give vaguely realistic behaviour (such as taking a sensible route from A to B).

This is a TIL so maybe they are surprised about the 7 that they listed and not the others.

There’s a few Ts in that comment. There are one or two people who replace “th” with that symbol in the communities that I subscribe to.

I also find it mildly infuriating.

They specifically said that a gross tenant paying market rate is better than no tenant.

I’ve suddenly been getting regular Windows notifications from Adobe asking me to set them as the default PDF app.

Very annoying when I use Adobe reader once a month or so to sign documents.

Would you not consider an author who sold millions of books worldwide to be qualification enough for world news?

As a non American I wouldn’t mind articles about American authors in world news. It would have to be those with a high international profile though which gives the problem about where the line is.

They didn’t say that it wouldn’t compete. They said that it wouldn’t compete on price.

Don’t forget the sports washing angle with golf, football, boxing and motorsport.

I had a terrible first play through.

I read an article on this a while ago and I’m not sure what UK crimes he is known to have committed.

Our age of consent is 16 so he didn’t sexually assault a minor. If he did what he did then in the present day then he’d have broken sex trafficking laws but those laws were weak or non existent at the time.

Obviously, there’s a fair chance that he did commit a crime that we don’t know about and finding out about that would be made very difficult due to who he is.

It’s getting to be that way in the UK too.

It used to be that everyone could get an NHS dentist and get a lot of work done for free but not anymore. I think that we’re still all entitled to an NHS dentist but there aren’t enough of them so only kids have easy access.

They spent billions of dollars to develop and train the AIs that they use. They’re not going to remove it for fucking up someone’s YouTube channel.

They wouldn’t remove it even if it caused someone’s death (which it probably has considering that they have been shown to be very bad at therapy and that people go to them for therapy).
