When I get my own place there will be a urinal in the bathroom. Why wouldn’t there be one? So efficient.

Yeah, I can only tut and shake my head when non-Brits complain about stepping on Lego.
- Comment on Why do so many UK electrical sockets have an on/off switch next to them? 3 weeks ago:
The specific-plugs-for-lamps think is very rare these days. The reason for it is that it’s not uncommon for our plugs to be on a high amperage circuit - sometimes 30A, occasionally higher - that can’t be safely controlled with a light switch or similar, so the lamp-only circuit will be capped at, say, 3A with unusual plugs to avoid someone trying to connect a tumble dryer.

That guy was, I think, intended as a stand-in for real-life eugenicist and all-round villain Henry Laughlin. Killing him in-game was quite the treat.

If Hollywood has taught me one thing, it’s that the hero is handsome and photogenic and the villain is a ugly and greasy…
JUST SAYING.
- Comment on Do you want the murderer of the UnitHealthcare CEO prosecuted? 2 months ago:
An answer to a different question, but if he gets caught I hope that the media gives him the same treatment as school shooters; plastering his image everywhere, distributing his manifesto and transforming him into an antihero.

Are Temu the ones who say “pretend you’re a billionaire” or something but their ads always have the most bizarre, undesirable-looking, nasty, cheap, plastic things in them?
- Comment on Guardian will no longer post on Elon Musk’s X from its official accounts 3 months ago:
Good guy The Guardian. For my fellow Brits, here is your regular reminder that there are only two major independent news outlets in the UK: The Guardian and the BBC.
- Comment on Smoking ban introduced to protect children and most vulnerable 3 months ago:
Sounds good. Tell you what, why don’t you write a complete list of every problem that needs sorting, objectively ranked in order of importance, and we can make sure no-one addresses problem #2 until problem #1 is fixed.
Perfect is the enemy of good.

Related: GTA games are full of parody companies and brands with childish humour and, yes, there’s a sportswear brand in GTA called ProLaps. Their motto is “Strain Hard”.

I know enough about academia, electrical safety, people and hygiene to find this plausible, reckless, funny and revolting respectively, but not enough about any to know which should win.

I’m glad your typo was “start trek” and not “start wars” because rambling is a noble hobby and warmongering is… not so much.

Racists who are nourished by their fantasy that Brexit is hurting brown people.
- Comment on The best computer from 2014 8 months ago:
I honestly tell people not to buy a RasPi unless they really need the specific hardware form factor (GPIO, etc). For virtually every application, a second-hand USFF PC is cheaper and more powerful, has better I/O and comes with a quality PSU.
