I call it the domino cash cow. Do like the forums and also allow people to pay 50p to put the chair in front of them back up

And if your piping is some kind of cheap plasticy stuff you don't need to wait 40 years! Ask me how I know (luckily it was a small leak but jesus christ why)

Lord Ludikrous posted:Scan while you shop is the way to go folks. You bag it all up as you go around the supermarket and there’s never any real queues, and it saves an absurd amount of time. Yeah it's great. On the one hand yes I am doing their work for them but it means you can just bag stuff properly as you shop, pay, and load it straight in your car.

Bobby Deluxe posted:I had a friend who described himself as being conservative in that special, mind bent way where he had selected a five minute window of history where the party claimed to be about fiscal responsibility, and decided he agreed with that and so was conservative. Advocate for the devil here, but is that really so different from this thread who mostly hate the centrist Labour leadership and the Blair governments?

Just chiming in to say that the Coen brothers' The Ballad of Buster Scruggs is an excellent set of six short Western films, each quite different from the others. Their True Grit is excellent as well and is very much not set in the desert.

Supreme Court says Heathrow can proceed to request planning permission for a new runway. Full judgement here if anybody wants to trawl through it: https://www.supremecourt.uk/cases/docs/uksc-2020-0042-judgment.pdf

Lungboy posted:It sounds like Heathrow has all but canned it's 3rd runway team, so while they won the court case it might not go ahead anyway. Of course but you can't keep a large team around for a year doing nothing while your case winds through the courts. A lot of those people were also on secondment from consultancy companies. I imagine that if Heathrow can finance it they'll restart at least some preliminary work while they see what's going to happen with the pandemic.

therattle posted:If nobody else claims this I would like it thanks. I used to play the original some 30 years ago... You can get the original Railroad Tycoon off archive.org and run it in Dosbox, I started playing it again recently. I didn't remember that the other, AI-run railroads were run by historical persons, so when I started a new game in Europe ca. 1900 I was competing with both Tsar Nicholas II and Lenin, who started a new railroad in Switzerland. Anyway my point is choo choo, motherfuckers
