  • Clarkson has been trying to warn us for years, and we haven’t been listening. He punched a producer when his dinner wasn’t on time, to highlight the impending delays to food deliveries after Brexit. He left the BBC to work for Amazon, presenting a show that was a shadow of it’s former self, to illustrate how billionaires diminish everything they touch.

    He couldn’t be clearer with his messaging, but the UK continues to ignore him.


  • I once did some office work for a tobacco company, where you were allowed to smoke at your desk. I don’t smoke, but I had a few ciggies when I was there, because you realise that you’ve never really pointed at anything, until you’ve pointed at it with a cig in your hand. It’s just a better way to point at stuff (I don’t make the rules).

    You don’t need to apologise. I wasn’t trying to give you a hard time (sorry if it seemed like that). The remote posts I linked to in my earlier comment have now gone (maybe I was being given a cached version before - that’s a possibility I often forget about).





  • This says more about RT’s flawed ratings system than it does the quality of this movie. ‘80% Fresh’ just mean 80% of critics thought it was watchable (so it applies if there were 5 critics, and 4 said ‘meh’ and 1 said ‘bad’). The AVClub gave it a C+, which is the kind of rating that RT regards as Fresh from some publications and Rotten from others.

    I’ve no idea why people are trying to Jack Quaid a thing, he was already a thing as soon as he was born to his famous parents.


  • PieFed is just a Fediverse platform that aims to inter-op with Lemmy in much the same way that it aims to inter-op with any other Group-based platform (MBIN, PeerTube, NodeBB, Wordpress).

    Lemmy’s “quirks” are the reason why your account won’t see Polls from MBIN, or channels from PeerTube, or posts from NodeBB, or backfilled content from Wordpress.

    It’s not my intent to criticise Lemmy, but these are verifiable problems, whereas it doesn’t seem fair to criticise PieFed for problems that you can’t clearly remember.
