+1 for PipePipe! I love it and it Just Works®. Quick updates too.

Depends. It was dogshit when it launched, but now I get over 100mbps down. I did have to relocate the wireless modem box they gave me, though. And of course, YMMV, as did mine at launch.

Fuck the Daily Mail.

Yeah no. Plaid is one thing but giving access to your bank login to pay an invoice is something quite another. If it’s legit they can accept a card payment, or send you to a PayPal invoice.

🎶 Ooh baby don’t you know I suffer Oh baby when you phished my bank You sent me to a dodgy website Using a convincing link

Ooooooh-ooooh You drained my bank account Ooooooh-ooooh You drained my bank account🎶

Gotta have lashings of Bisto gravy, yorkies and good ol’ British Maris Piper potatoes too. Occasionally carrot turnip mash if you’re feeling posh. Cauliflower and broccoli if that’s your thing. Served by Lynda Bellingham.

Americans know it as Apple Crisp, because the US has to perpetuate the myth than American English is anything but a bastardisation of an existing language and therefore have different words for the same thing.

And yes. Hot Ambrosia® custard, not ice cream, and not Birds®. Just as I was served at school dinners (which somehow bow are called lunch).

Or Colmans English Mustard. English Wasabi, I call it.

Do the improved Chromium browsers all count as bad browsers now? I use Vivaldi. I’m not certain but I think DuckDuckGo’s browser might be based on Chromium, too.

Vivaldi still displays a face. It’s probably a Chromium thing.

Ooh, thanks! I love stuff like this.

Press and hold? I hadn’t thought about that idea to be honest, I’ll have to try that next time. I use Vivaldi on both Android and desktop, which is based on Chromium (the open source project base for Google Chrome).

Edit - just tried it, didn’t work for me. It’s not an option in my menu. I’ll try and figure out the dev console on mobile and post here if I figure it out.

Honestly, I had to read this slowly, one word at a time, in case you the put words wrong way around again

Reminds me of when I aliased ‘man’ to ‘rtfm’

GRAND-FAAAAAAAAAATHEEERRRRRRRRRRR!

I read that as monkey laundering

Same happened to me two years ago. I signed up for a 30-day trial with one of those e-fax companies and after the doc was sent I cancelled. To be fair, my work had an account with that service so I already knew about it - but I knew I didn’t want to pay a buck a page just to pay my taxes… Hopefully you don’t need this advice in future but maybe it can come in handy just in case!

Sounds like doublespeak to me. “we will grant your request except for where we won’t, because of reasons affecting x y and z, but not condition a”

It’s because of the crappy colour grading they do to merge shot footage with cgi effects. Jurassic Park holds up because it’s from an era of cinema where they didn’t do that grungy Blue-grey shit.

I was so confused by this as a kid.

ISO 8601, it’s the only way.
