  Hey, at least they were all over 16. The BBC is improving.

  Wait til you see the next one.

  The one on the right reminds me of Mike from Spaced.

  I need to watch that show again now

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nigel Farage felt ‘genuinely worried’ by alleged TikTok death threat, court hears⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Nigel Farage: I will revoke indefinite leave to remain, and then send my goons to abduct your families and deport them.

  Also Nigel Farage: Don’t point your fingers and say bang, you’ll do me a frighten!!!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨One iPhone led police to gang who sent 40,000 snatched phones to China⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Wouldn’t it be easier to steal them in China? It’s where most of them come from after all.

  I don’t think the Fortnite generation have any room to talk here.

  The nice thing about climate change is I can retire in a seaside town without ever having to move house.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PSA: Stop using Imgur for now⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The alternatives who are most likely to take power:

  Farage who will abduct and deport my wife.

  The Tories who can see Farage being popular with bigots and aiming to be even more cunty.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[serious] when was the last time Donald Trump went swimming, has he ever swam?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Does he look like he swims? Or do any exercise for that matter…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Once again, looking for PS2 game suggestions!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Primal is a game that got a lot of hype at the time but nobody ever seems to talk about any more. No remaster, no sequel, nothing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Discord customer service data breach leaks user info and scanned photo IDs⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Or do.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Has this ever happened to you?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  At the very least you’re doubling your chances of somebody liking you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bike thefts at stations 'decriminalised'⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Even if it was left for days, the act of scanning through a video looking for the point the bike arrives and is then no longer there is fucking trivial.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bike thefts at stations 'decriminalised'⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I wonder if they’d adopt the same two hour window if I smashed into a ticket machine and stole all the cash.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Updates to Xbox Game Pass: Introducing Essential, Premium, and Ultimate Plans - Xbox Wire [prices going up]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Those billion AI GPUs won’t pay for themselves you know.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Britons believe the UK is seen by the rest of the world as ‘weak’ and ‘soft touch’⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  We don’t think it’s because we took over a quarter of the globe for a hundred years and taught everyone English then?

  It must be because they’re all gagging for chicken nuggets and chips at a Best Western.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Buy one, get one free' deals for unhealthy food banned in supermarkets⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No fizzy pop meal deals, no porn, digital ID and you can’t even burn a migrant hotel any more.

  We used to be a proper country.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI Coding Is Massively Overhyped, Report Finds⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Of course. Shareholders want results, and not just results for nVidia’s bottom line.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Finally I understand it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  My grandparents were swingers… So somebody was a squirter, might not have been my nan.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam Autumn Sale 2025 Has Begun⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They’ve been pretty underwhelming for a while now.

  You used to get crazy deals on games only a few months old. Now it’s just the same 50% off a five year old game before being ramped back up to full price between sales.

  There’s a few bargains of stuff you may have missed, but likely they’ve been an Epic freebie, or on PSPlus or in a Humble Bundle by now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Record breaker Starmer is the 'most unpopular PM since polling began'⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m with the septics on that one. Having licence instead of license but licensed instead of licenced is asinine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ratmageddon: Why rats are overrunning our cities⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe because we’re dumping food everywhere?

  It’s not exactly A Plague Tale: Requiem, is it? Even in Birmingham.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Record breaker Starmer is the 'most unpopular PM since polling began'⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The Internet Wanking License hasn’t been a clear winner either. He voted against that when the Tories were in power, then flipped when they realised they’d be the ones doing all the spying. Wait until Farage gets in and uses that to collect a list of rainbow flag people to bully once he’s done with the brown people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Record breaker Starmer is the 'most unpopular PM since polling began'⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It should be noted that The Canary is still fuming that Corbyn didn’t get a third attempt to lose to the Tories.

  I didn’t vote for Starmer. I voted for Labour. If he’s ineffective, replace him with somebody better equipped to deal with the threat of Reform.

  I live in a shithole town with a migrant hotel, and let me tell you, this place will vote Reform next time. I’m sure sticking them there was cheaper than building proper facilities and hiring an appropriate number of people to process them and handle any needed deportations, but the cost of Reform will dwarf that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lara Croft is a Sociopath⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Did you play the first one in the reboot trilogy?

  There’s a bit where she has to kill somebody in self defence and then breaks down over it, before spending the entire rest of the game plonking arrows through people’s skulls.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump says TikTok should be tweaked to become “100% MAGA”⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I never used either. Never really understood the culture of gormlessly scrolling through mind-numbing content.

  But then I also gave up broadcast TV before even Netflix was popular. Just spent a small fortune on bargain bin DVDs instead.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Electronic Arts nears roughly $50 billion deal to go private, WSJ reports⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  “but his son will ride a camel…” vibes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨FFS Plex, the server is on my local network⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s been pretty decent.

  Supports Dolby Vision/Atmos etc. Image based subtitles (e.g. those ripped from a disc) end up getting transcoded, but that seems the only thing it doesn’t natively support. Had trouble with AV1 but I’m not sure if that’s a general thing or that one specific file.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everyone thinks the Deus Ex remaster looks awful and they're right: 'They really turned those 1999 graphics into 2003 graphics'⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think so. They’re quite cheap when it comes to knocking these out, and didn’t have a higher poly model to go off like they did with Tomb Raider or Soul Reaver.

  I’m still salty over how many tweaks they could have made to improve that and didn’t bother.
