NHS doctors don’t do annual physicals because they barely have time to do direct treatment to seriously engage in preventive measures like that. Go look at private doctors in the UK though and you will find that they all offer these services.

It was a Burger Town™ I’ll have you know and it was the last bastion of western civilization™


Apparently she got caught by a journalist using AI facial recognition from a 30+ year old wanted poster. Makes you think.


A very laughable attempt to scare up some more cash, but it’s great to see another nail in the coffin of so called space enthusiasts who really convinced themselves NASA was “beating” China in the imaginary space race they’ve concocted.
Personally I believe that as well as the earth orbit testing of the lanyue I can very much envision a unmanned test flight around the moon too, or perhaps a crewed fly by to test the lunar docking procedures before the real thing.


If anybody is interested in seeing an actually good movie about (the best part of) the odyssey then I highly recommend The Return 2024. Ralph Fiennes plays old man odysseus right after he washes up on the shores of Ithaca.


Same thing with chimneys. As with the window tax the rich took it to the other extreme and put in as many windows or hearths as they could to show off.


Only the English actually vote for the “British” PM, and attempting to understand the mind of the average Anglo voter will drive a person to madness.


Honestly the impression I got from the movie was that the intention behind it was so ambigious that it amounted to a
“really makes ya think, huh?”. I think your interpretation is the one McDonagh was aiming for but for all his strength in writing characters he has the slight flaw of being incapable of making a fucking point in anything he writes.
I liked the final scene though, it (unintentionally) captures something that most stories around the civil war fail to capture which is that the fundemental tensions that caused it were never addressed. Even if you ignore the class tensions that went unresolved in the bourgeois revolution that occured in 1920 (why not, everyone else does). The fundamental goal of national independence was left (and still is) incomplete. The Republic has always been very eager to wash its hands of the direct role it played in causing the Troubles. Irish history tends to end with the civil war and then pretend that the civil rights movement that kicked off the Troubles was solely the fault of colonial forces and not the Irish bourgeoisie selling the North so they could turn around and eliminate what remained of the Irish left. So even though there is no way McDonagh actually thought about any of this when writing it, I find the final scene’s affirmation that the violence will continue to be an anachronistic nod to the legacy of the civil war. The fighting started again with the Troubles, and it will probably start anew with reunification.
McDonagh makes fun movies and boring plays, but I find them often of little substance.
Still love the car movie though.


That’s okay since in The Original British Colony ™ it’s impossible to see a doctor from the NHS anyway.


What is going on with Stripe and these payment providers? Is this some personal crusade from the top or something more coordinated?


Imagine mentioning the deus ex reboot for its bathrooms but not mentioning the greatest nightclub of all time from the original. Go up to the bar for a drink, and if you make past the two businesspeople talking about Kacynski you have to contend with the worlds most philisophical bartender to get served
“China is the last sovereign country in the world. Authoritarian but willing – unlike U.N.-governed countries – to give its people the freedom to do what they want.” " This is real freedom, freedom to own property, make a profit, make your life. The West, so afraid of strong government, now has no government. Only financial power."


Is there any indication that Mélenchon’s has any more chance of winning? I was kind of under the impression he would probably come in third or fourth again.


Labour party died a long time ago


Too bad that European independent launch capability is based in uhhh South America.


Can Ariane 6 even be considered competitve against the Falcon 9? The only space agency I have less faith in delivering a partially reusable rocket by 2030 than Roscosmos is the ESA. Hopefully the LM 10 variants can cut into SpaceX’s market.
Do not listen to any of these cowards. Play as Indian Territories and declare independence day 1 and learn to love suffering.

The installer comes with a mute button and the website stuff is completely optional through check boxes. Compared to hypervisor that’s like someone saying “I’m afraid to nuclear war” and you replying “Yeah, and my neighbour keeps saying hello to me so I stopped leaving the house”


Its Wisemans personal ipad (For some reason they keep avoiding saying ipad, at one point during the launch the presenter literally went “his i- uh computer”). Imagine being on a flyby mission around the moon and you spend it troubleshooting your ipad so you can answer work emails (tbf they got like 5 days with fuck all else to do except occaisionally check they are not dead).
If you really want to see a disaster waiting to happen just take a peek in the Dragon cockpits. Im not sure they have a single physical button anywhere its just freakin ipads.
It also works as a great filter because all the terrible players never play the soviets because they “want to play the good guys” so you’re usually on the winning side.
