When does the EU start charging the UK to use their satellites? Is it this time next year as well?

crispix posted:I really think that's what we'll be hearing for the rest of this year. It is very inevitable that we will get another dramatic no deal deadline showdown at the end of the year because the pattern is now very well established of the tories doing gently caress all but impotent sabre-rattling until they run out of negotiating time and duly capitulate to whatever the EU asked for as a starting point This, but with Boris 'saving the day' by signing over everything the UK has to the US. Boris wants the limelight, to show how big of a leader he is. He won't care if the plebs get the dregs.

Jedit posted:So, the GFA is broken and the Troubles are coming back. It won't be the IRA doing it this time around. It will be the unionist UVF who will kick it off. If Boris continues with the 'no checks needed, oh no, blimey, NI will need no extra red tape' and then throws NI under the bus at the last second and tell them there will be more red tape, this will disenfranchise the loyalists, not the IRA.

Darth Walrus posted:The IRA will probably start getting fighty as the calls for Irish reunification start getting louder (and the British government refuses), though. But if they are smart (unlikely I know) they would hunker down, and let the UK destroy itself with Brexit and such. Don't need to risk trying to get a bomb to a UK town center, when a new 'trade' deal will destroy it for you.

Problem with Bond is that Austin Powers ruined it. The grim dark Bond makes him just another action hero.

Guavanaut posted:Hidden under an enormous black cap. It's a problem in the way they can't just do stupid campy poo poo again. Bond can't do stupid poo poo today like dress up as a clown to get to a nuclear bomb, or have two space armies firing lasers on a moonbase. It would be laughed out of the place. And a major facet of Bond's uniqueness is hosed too, the gadgets. Once upon a time we were amazed that they could fit a radio, or small bomb into a shoe heel. The best today is an app to drive a car from your phone. Mission Impossible beats Bond with its gadgets too. JAM TROUSERS! loving useless Q.

Comrade Fakename posted:Austin Powers isn’t really a parody of Bond films, it’s really more of a parody of the legions of sub-Bond ripoffs that floated around in the sixties, like Man from UNCLE and In Like Flynn. The best Bond rip off is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O.K._Connery MST3K did an episode on it, so easy to youtube search and watch. Funny as hell.

Saith posted:I feel bad for the Irish This is how we see them in Ireland. I use these all the time. They are scummy ATMs btw . There are youtube videos showing how they prey on tourists by showing higher than normal default amounts to take out. And they use waaaaay outdated exchange rates that will rip you off. They are ok for local withdrawals though, they can't scam you that way.

OwlFancier posted:Flat earth ice wall makes a lot of sense if you start from the assumption that the earth is flat. Gotta have something to keep the water in. And the concave earth is more complicated. Problem with that is the stars. How do the stars look different to everyone in the southern hemisphere than in the north if they are on a flat circle? The outer ring sees one set of stars, while the inner one sees a different set. Then again Jews came from space. Not kidding, this is an actual theory.

Jose posted:lol i'll believe it when i see it But redefines 'mansion' as a house or collections of houses that total greater than X area squared*. Meaning terraced houses, tower flats, are now considered mansions. *To be defined as just above Jacob Rees Mogg's mansion measurement so can dodge it.

floofyscorp posted:RE: ambulance waiting times, I found this interesting map showing median response times to life-threatening injuries. The data's from a few years ago but you apparently really don't want to be living in the east of England: It tells you the time period when you hover over, my area in NI is from 2011-2014. So its obviously worse now.

thespaceinvader posted:Neither has been worth watching in years. Last Leg started out vaguely leftist and has trended more and more liberal/fake neutral over the years, MTW lost its bite when it lost Frankie Boyle and Hugh Dennis got oooooooooooold. Granted I only watched the one ep of it, but was checking out some Youtube vids of the recent seasons there, and it seems they have moved from dark humor to loving kindergarten word puns. As if they all turned into Milton Jones.

This is even worse than £££ from home though. This is 'throw your money at the stock market/money exchange yourself'. No mention of how rich his family is. No mention of how much money he started out with.

Julio Cruz posted:e: actually £470 on his first day seems really suspicious as well, either that's a massive profit margin (that I am given to believe doesn't really exist in ForEx) or he did indeed have a very large amount of capital to start with I messed with ForEx for a while, and it was either a massively fluctuating day that day. As in massive drops/increases a few times. So his selling price returns were like a high odds bet winning (20/1 a few times during the day, 200/1 once for example). Or he had a large sum of money to start with, and was lucky with one price drop/increase to get back pennies on it..

The plague is confirmed in Ireland now. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-northern-ireland-51665704 quote:Chief Medical Officer Dr Michael McBride said the adult had travelled from northern Italy via Dublin. Seeing how Dublin airport is just one massive crowd in one place, its time to nuke us from orbit. Only way to be sure.
