njsykora posted:Their doughnuts are flavourless shite as well. I'm reminded of that the hard way every time I'm tempted by them in the cabinet at Tesco. In vague defence to Krispy Kreme, the one you get in the Tesco cabinet have been sitting there hours and hours. Doughnuts are always fresher better. Since it was payday yesterday, I got myself a wee treat from "Tantrum Doughnuts" on my lunch break, it was great.

Firos posted:If I've learned anything from listening to a million podcasts it's that you get everyone to record locally. Yeah, was gonna post this. Get everyone involved to download Audacity, and then send you the completed wav when finished, you line them all up and work out what adjustments need made to each track. Everyone should have headphones though, otherwise difficulty increases massively.

Oh god, are we supposed to know about politics AND be highbrow? Maybe I can't do this. And miftan, I will absolutely eat a segment of chocolate orange for 2 minutes.

I don't typically drink hot drinks. I'll have a hot choc in the winter, especially if it's offered to me because someone else is putting the kettle on or nipping to Tim Hortons or whatever, but I'm normally a cold drink drinker. Not made cold brew coffee in a few weeks though. Think my next homebrew beer might be something I make with cold brew too.

Scikar posted:A Blue Snowball Cardioid is about £50 and is a huge quality jump up from most headset mics, although yeah it can't save you from bad room acoustics. Fortunately there are still lots of things you can do in a room, just having something behind the mic that absorbs sound makes a big difference because that catches the first set of reflections in the typical vocal range. I can also attest to the Rode Video Micro. Only issue is it doesn't come with a stand, so you'd need a tripod compatible stand, or a boom arm, but the videomicro also works with android phones, and for an extra tenner can work with iPhones, in case you want to record on the go.

Heners_UK posted:Just curious if the podcasters have anything they'd recommend for those of us who spend all day on Online Meetings with headsets on. I figure that I'm spending so much time presenting etc I should put some effort into the audio. Chances are whatever online meeting software you're using will be compressing the audio anyway, so not likely to make that much difference.

radmonger posted:I would consider it implausible that Labour could negotiate a deal that led to satisfying 20% of leave voters while keeping the ~2024 GDP within 20% of what it would have been otherwise. as well as what Tarnop said, there's the issue that Labour won't have a majority government in pretty much any scenario, and that those changes take time to take effect. It's not day 1 spend aw the money, 6 months later it's all grand and no issues anymore, hell there's plenty things I wouldn't expect from the last manifesto to necessarily get seen to in a full term parliament, sometimes things fall by the wayside.

I'm 30 ive only had two family members I've directly known pass. My maternal grandpa died when I was 6, so I didn't really have sufficient connection to him to feel any loss. One of my aunt's died about 3 years ago, but this was after years and years of drunkenness and unpleasantness. I felt it was a shame she'd died - there's two kids - but again, I didn't have any real connection with her, and couldn't get time off work for the funeral. My gran is in a care home now, has been a few months, and honestly since her stroke a year or two ago it's been a matter of time, well likely lose her before my wedding in 2021, and even if we don't, she won't be well enough to attend. Some people just don't experience it. My last suit was a darkish blue, but I've also gained a lot of weight over the last few years, if gran passed tomorrow, I'd need to buy or borrow a suit, and I'm lucky enough to be in a situation where I could afford one.

Regarde Aduck posted:Despite his lack of self insight, AceOfFlames seems to be in a rough spot and maybe lay off the dogpile? Everyone is usually so accepting, itt, of people with various mental ailements and yet because he's being non-compliant, which I admit isn't helpful, it appears the knives are out. The thing about AoF is, he'll do this every couple months, the thread will tell him to go get therapy because he clearly needs it, he proceeds to ignore that advice, and continues posting like an idiot, eventually till he gets tired of being told to gently caress off.

No paid breaks, no more increased pay for bank holidays or night shifts, decreased holiday allowances. All in exchange for "higher pay". Yes, the new base rate is higher for a majority of employees. It is, however, also the new minimum wage for 25+ from April.

marktheando posted:Hearty lol at at the Lib Dems. Swinson is so awful, I bet a big part of her resistance to Corbyn's plan is fear of losing her seat if there's an election haha. She's even going about that the wrong way! Her seat is big remain, in line with most of Scotland. If she's seen as not blocking no deal when the SNP have done everything they can, then she loses one of the two things going for her, leaving her with just "Not the SNP"

We all know the secret too, and know just why they're afraid of him. (It's that capitalism is bad)

The EU has not explicitly ruled out re-negotiations with someone with different red lines to May. Boris has not changed May's positions, so the only possible deal is May's deal. I'll find a quote from the last week or so to confirm, one sec. e;

Labour can't commit to backing remain over a deal they've negotiated before they negotiate it because then why would the EU make a good deal? Labour also can't commit to backing its own deal over remain because they can't know what's going to be in such a deal. They know how they want to go about it, but not what they'll actually get from the EU.
