• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to fly from the US to the UK as a duel citizen?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That doesn’t work. The airline absolutely does care. They will not let you board without proof you will be accepted by the US.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to fly from the US to the UK as a duel citizen?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You have to leave the UK under your US passport to show that you have permission to enter the US.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK weather: Amber extreme heat warning issued as 35C heatwave approaches⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Insulation also keeps heat out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Starmer vows to act on social media after meeting bereaved parents⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t worry, businesses will be exempt, and enforcement will only be for people the government doesn’t like. Watch out, trans folks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Starmer vows to act on social media after meeting bereaved parents⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This will be the excuse to make VPNs illegal. Very convenient.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK heatwave triggers price rises for items such as hot tubs and air conditioning units⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You joke, but integrated systems that can actually do this do exist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the deal with IPv6?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If only there was some kind of system to give IP addresses easy to remember names.

  I mean the latter.

  If Israel had won, there wouldn’t be one next year.

  Holy victim blaming, Batman.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Video] British journalist Steve Sweeney bombed by Israel while reporting in Lebanon⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The journalist in question appears to work for RT, so there’s a reasonable chance this is AI generated or faked in some other way. Impossible to prove.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨BBC World Service: Government to increase funding by £33m over next three years⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Good.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If the color of the Sun was orange, wouldn't the clouds and everything white also be orange? My friend is adamant that 30 years ago the "real" Sun was orange but got replaced with a white LED.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You cannot reason someone out of a position they did not reason themselves into.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Waterstones would sell books written by AI, says chain's boss⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And yet you still used the horribly misleading headline as the post title. Good job.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I dunno⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Pemdas, USA. Bodmas, UK.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If people don't trust climate science, how will we ever get them to change?⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You can’t reason someone out of a position they did not reason themselves into.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Parents fined as daughter absent nearly 200 times from Stoke-on-Trent school⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I understand why this is local news but I can’t think of a good reason why this is worth sharing here.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Green MP spots banned cluster bombs at London arms fair⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I am downvoting you for bitching about downvotes.

  Just to be clear.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Former MasterChef presenter Gregg Wallace launches legal action against BBC⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Buttery Biscuit Case.

  RIP Peter David, who died yesterday.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Every single UK citizen should carefully read this article. It reveals how political power really works in Britain.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I urge you to describe the article in the title instead of writing clickbait there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hottest Star Trek character?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Pike. The new one.

  It’s the hair.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How are the blatant anti-competitive practices of Apple just…allowed? How is this even possible?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Apple is not a monopoly, nor the dominant manufacturer of smartphones. They have the freedom to do these things because you don’t have to buy an iPhone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Major disruption as Heathrow closed all day after nearby fire causes power outage⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It does. That failed too. They don’t know why yet. It’s too early to bother speculating.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why aren't all rooms holodecks?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This was an excuse to allow Voyager to use the holodeck, which would have been an extravagant waste of power otherwise.

  The Enterprise D holodeck ran from ships power, as shown in “Booby Trap”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨To be rejected by a desk...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Why is there a chair back behind him when he is clearly standing up?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone else feel like their blood is kind of vibrating?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The sensor noise would be distributed evenly, and not clustered around the rod like bees.

  It seems to be UK only.
