goddamnedtwisto posted:TBH the problem is I have *too many* ideas, nowhere near enough execution, and the too many ideas end up killing whatever execution I actually try because I just hating it for not containing all of the ideas I do have. If you’re open to suggestions then: just pick an idea, execute and iterate. The perfect really is the enemy of the good, and if you try one and it doesn’t work you at least can mark it off and see what bits you can move forward. Ideas are really plentiful, but execution is everything.

That’s interesting about the NMS tags! Awful app doesn’t hide the content (which is fine with me) but it’s a cool idea.

Mebh posted:I still have a Raclette I bought in LIDL 8 years ago in germany that i have never even plugged in but have taken it through 4 countries...its got a heating coil, some super hefy cooking plates and 8 little non stick pans for melting raclette and or nibblies in that go under the heating element like a grill. If this is the one that has a heavy stone on one half and a metal plate on the other (and coloured buttons on each of the little pans) then I've been using the same for about 7 years now and it's absolutely amazing.

By the Freddo index (taking the price of a freddo and looking at how that has changed) I worked out that even at £70 a game, games are slightly cheaper than they were when I was buying them in the early 2000s. I'm sure I put my working on this forum somewhere.

What about sending an associate to measure the shadow on a building of known height a certain time while you measure another one a known distance away at the same time? You could keep in contact to know it's at the same minute.

NotJustANumber99 posted:Would TV tax be more progressive if it were charged by the inch? There used to be a black and white discount, so maybe? Should be full-on means tested if it has to exist. I know 'BUYING FLATSCREEN TVS ON BENEFITS' is still a trope (despite non-flatscreens not being available for years) but a decent TV investment is a very, very efficient entertainment-per-pound use for someone who doesn't have much disposable income, especially if there are children.

I'm intrigued about the idea of counting the letters. We know that only Sir Graham Brady gets them and have to take his word that they've been received. But when they've 'reached' 54, does he then have to prove it? Or does he just say it's at 54, vote time. I get that he'd be stupid to make it up, because if you can't get 54 to trigger then you won't get the vote through, but even that raises another question. If the vote can only be held each 12 months, could he 'declare' early to make sure it fails? Regarding the Hodges tweet, much as I'd love it to be true, Hodge's is full of poo poo normally, so it would be hypocritical to believe this one just because it's what I want.

Answers Me posted:Is the running tally made known to them too? I can't remember from the May one. If so, I should imagine there's a flurry towards the end, with people hedging their bets submitting only when they're sure it'll definitely go through. As far as I can tell it's totally up to him. Jedit posted:No, because there's no deadline by which letters must be submitted. Once an MP puts a letter in to the 1922, it's there unless and until he withdraws it. As soon as there are sufficient letters, a leadership contest is triggered. Sure, but my question is "does Brady ever have to actually prove anything (to the 1922 comm)?". Could he just decide it's time for a vote and lie? Or conversely do the opposite? By every 12 months, I mean that they can only hold a vote of no confidence every 12 months, not that there's a deadline for the letters.

I seem to remember it being leaked about 4 years ago. Interesting to look at it now knowing things about e.g. Hancock. Liam Fox's entry is something too.

I agree entirely - so many impersonations are relying on the likes of 'the biggest, just juuge', the hand gestures and hyperbole, but missing that the real uniqueness is the stream of consciousness and the way that he starts so many more sentences than he finishes.

Reveilled posted:I find it truly remarkable that the idea that the people who engineered this pandemic are using it to pre-vaccinate their sheep against a much more deadly plague that they plan to release in the near future and is 100% fatal in unvaccinated individuals seems never to come up among conspiracy theorists. Get rid of all the malcontents, leave behind the docile ones who do what they're told. gently caress it, let's use that to meet the anti-vaxers half way. "COVID was engineered by the government. They've also produced a vaccine, so that everyone who listens to the government and their so-called experts will survive, and everyone else will die. You can either listen to the government and live, or not and die because of them. But you can't Fight The Good Fight™ if you're dead so I guess take the vaccine for now?"

goddamnedtwisto posted:Aerons are actually pretty cheap considering they're effectively indestructible - there's ones in my office that are left over from the dotcom era when they were part of the tech company starter pack with an SGI desktop and a 21" Trinitron. Funny thing is they're not actually that comfortable, at least without investing hours in tweaking them. I was very excited when I started in a place that had Aerons. Until I started using it and was really disappointed.
