Anyone who hasn’t played this game should do so now. It’s a thing of real beauty.

He’s just trying to sell books now. Ignore him.

Oral b pro 1, 2 or 3. They use the same motor and batteries as their most expensive ones, which is really the only bit that matters. Everything else is just gimmicks to justify the price… Bluetooth connections and other bullshit.

And don’t bother with official heads either. Generics work fine. Just remember to change them often.

Yes, I admire her so much for doing this. She’s a real hero.

Parents should say no, and now this will make it easier for them to do so :)

The advertising standards authority use a nutritional profiling model. If the food is High in Fat, Sodium, Suger (HFSS) it gets a higher score. Some points are deducted if it is high in fruit, veg or nuts. If the food is above a certain point threshold different advertising rules apply.

This applies to preprocessed food. Not ingredients you would use to prepare your own food.

I don’t know about your other questions but some of the other rules are interesting…

You can’t use licensed characters or celebrities to advertise to under 16s.

You can’t condone or promote unhealthy lifestyle or eating habits. Ie. Eating a massive bucket of ice cream in front of the playstation.

You must not take advantage of a child’s vulnerability by appealing to emotions such as pity, fear, or self-confidence, or by Suggesting that having the advertised product somehow confers superiority, for example making a child more confident, clever, popular, or successful.

You must not present your price in a way that suggests children or their families can easily afford it. “Only”. “just”. Etc

Just some good ol’ oppression of the prol’s through class.

Such a good game. And the most successful 2d to 3d transition since Mario 64.

And this mod makes it 4 player split screen. One of the best bits of couch coop for pc imo.

Some members of the staff also felt their compensation was better than they might otherwise have earned in India, the defense argued.

Is this a real lawyer? They clearly have no legal case. I hope the book gets thrown at them.

I thought it was very moving. Psychosis simulator.

This film is a total gem. It’s mad, smart and surreal. And Richard E Grant is a perfect cast for the cynical ad’ man.

Plot spoiler, personally I think going in blind is good with this film but if you’re not gonna watch it…

!The ‘ahead’ in the title is an actual head. A second head with a wicked alter ego that forms on the advertising man’s neck and grows. Moral corruption from his occupation in the shape of a boil. A power struggle between ‘good’ head (the protagonist is a massive asshole but he does have some tiny moral reservations about his influence in the world) and bad head (no scruples whatsoever) then plays out.!<

That makes it sound like a romp, and it is very funny, but also really dark and cynical.

Also recommend The Young Poisoner’s Handbook.

Good news. Awesome show so far.

And shame on business insider to down play it as someone complaining they’re not ‘cute’ enough.

Thanks for pointing that out, it is Discovery’s decision. For their part though, Sony is still at fault as they didn’t demand perpetual use rights for content sold on their store, or at least a full refund for the customer.

It looks like the biggest culprit is poor or non existent lod’s on the models. Strikes me as odd though as that’s a pretty basic art requirement for a game like this. I don’t see how this took them by suprise.

I guess the good news is that’s it’s easily fixable. It’s not like ksp2 which looks like it has some pretty unsolvable core issues.

Are you ok?

Sorry wired just came to hand. You can find it referenced elsewhere.

But it did change from ‘have to’ to ‘have to, if possible’ which is a massive climb down. It’s basically not possible to have a backdoor in e2e encryption so I think it’s dead in the water. It may even make other companies shift to e2e to avoid this legislation, which would be ironic.

And I think the quote is from the minister in charge of the bill, so he/she would talk it up.

The bill is awful. But at least it’s weak(er) and awful.

Time will tell.

Sure. I’ve not read it either but here’s what I’ve found.

Removal of encryption backdoors - https://www.wired.co.uk/article/britain-admits-defeat-in-online-safety-bill-encryption

Removal of ‘harmful but legal’ - https://techcrunch.com/2022/11/29/uk-online-safety-bill-legal-but-harmful-edit/

Age verification isn’t so clear cut but there’s room for a lot of hope. What ‘age verification’ is going to be in the bill is yet to be determined by Ofcom.

… Which is law makers kicking the can down the road… or passing the buck. Probably because it’s unenforceable and a technical/ privacy nightmare. Maybe it will amount to something, in which case we should be afraid, but I think most likely it will amount to not much.

Full bill is here if you have a spare 3 days to read it all - https://bills.parliament.uk/publications/52368/documents/3841

After bouncing back and forth between the house of lord’s and the house of commons This bill is a shadow of it’s former self. I’m glad to say.

Three things that were massively damaging for privacy and security have, as far as I can see, been scrapped.

1. The bill no longer requires tech companies to control ‘harmful but legal’ content. A blurry, ill defined concept that would have been impossible to regulate.
2. The bill no longer requires all end to end encrypted communication channel’s (WhatsApp etc) to have a backdoor for governments and enforcement agencies to access unencrypted messages between people. Something that would have broken effective security in every way.
3. The bill no longer requires porn to only be accessible to UK citizens after they have proven they are an adult. This was by providing bank details or ID to porn websites (lol no thanks), possibly through a third party company that is supposed to assure some privacy ( lol still no thanks).

And what’s left in the bill is going to be regulated by Ofcom, a toothless underfunded shell of a regulatory body.
