If you spill tea in England your head could end up on Tower Hill sans your body.

Yeah, it’s actually more based around industrialisation than a north/south thing. I think the Cornish miners also came home for noon dinner as the main meal of the day and then had tea in the evening.

If they didn’t want to have tea, why the fuck were they making it at tea time?

Microsoft’s boot killing shenanigans convinced me to just scrub the taint of 11 off this time.

I doubt individuals are that big a deal in history. If Hitler hadn’t done it probably somebody else would have done it.

Then again, the Norman Conquest of England was really just a succession crisis between three cousins mostly called Harold, but if it fell a slightly different way you don’t get French as the language of the English nobility and possibly no Hundred Years‘ War (though I like to think we’d have made any excuse to fight the French).

Wait, are they seriously complaining about Zendaya being in it? She’s not exactly not-European-looking, is she?

It’s like how if your people got genocided you get the genocide pass.

It’s funny that the follow-up to the “just learn code” movement that ignored the importance of knowledge was “just ask claude”, so now you don’t even have to write bad code to create a minefield of horrors in prod.

I’m an unprincipled engineer, in that case.

It’s a series of clouds.

The one correct way to do back-end is obviously to have lots of microservices all talking to a shared database so they can take each other down and also they’re never updated because you’d need about 10x the devs you have to maintain all of them. I know this because that’s everywhere I’ve worked for over a decade.

WTF toad in the hole is amazing! What do you even think it is?

My favourite variant is the Welsh, which comes with cockles.

Not really convinced about adding random spices to the parts, as it’s already plenty salty and quite well balanced. A cafe near me started adding herbs to their mushrooms and that kind of ruined them, as they were really nice just in butter. The chili sauce thing is just depraved though and makes me suspect you may soon start rubbing it on your eyeballs just to feel something.

I’ve been developing for decades so obviously I know that the subnet is where the Lord Marshall went and returned with powers beyond mortal comprehension.

Dune 2 came out shortly after a completely unrelated Dune game by a different studio, with the 2 added just so people could distinguish them.

Pronouns are a crutch. Real bros let their actions speak.

Did you miss the bit where she gestured expansively with her hands? No-one delusional would think to do that.

Has Taika stopped being non-stop cringe “I’m a celebrity and so is my wife!” yet? Hunt For The Wilderpeople if a very genuine and lovely film and I miss that from him.
