Was struggling to start some CAD modeling for a thing last night and I found an actual text tutorial for what I needed and got it done in like 30 mins after that. This is what we lost with the pivot to video.

the thing is if you have a six hour day for eight hours pay & full employment you now have time to enjoy walking your dog. to cook yourself something at leisure. to enjoy taking care of your dwelling. the answer isn't magic robots. it's unions, it's workers getting the means of production
Trigger warning. “In crashes, SUVs are more likely to strike vital organs in the core of adults’ bodies & heads of children. Hitting pedestrians above their center of gravity means they’re more likely to be knocked forward & down and then be driven over.” Plus more likely to hit in the 1st place.
Labour can't try and appease Reform voters and neo nazis and tell the rest of us that if we vote Green we might let the Tories in. Mate you're already worse than the Tories.
Wow. You think you know someone parasocially...

Yes it's a big "outside of" because it's why you would vocally say your preferences, if you were logically understanding that people will vote how they say they will vote, which you seem to think they don't.
Why would people lie?! What do they gain by saying they won't vote for him and then secretly voting for him anyway? What are you talking about?
Also, while a politician has a good reason to lie about what they will do i.e. getting into office, what possible benefit (outside of hoping to effect change in a campaign) does someone gain by saying "I won't vote for someone who is doing things I don't like". Why would they lie?
Yes, but before they are elected you don't know that they will keep that promise. You don't know they'll keep their promise, they don't know that you'll vote for them. It's not identical but it's more similar than you make out.
So why does a politician campaign? They say "I will do X if you vote for me". People then choose to vote for them or not based on what they've said. How is a voter, or bloc of voters saying "if you do X we won't vote for you" any different?
You'd think with a civil war to be worrying about they'd not be worrying about an Irish woman making a joke, but here we are.
I feel like more people are going to learn about Watto, whether they want to or not.

Charlie Kirk seems like a gimme I think.
Record store guy asked me for some suggestions for bands that he could bring down to Waterford for gigs because he liked what I was buying. This is “the kebab guy calling you Boss” for people with Sonic Youth t-shirts
I will say for eg Hbomberguy and the likes that do very long videos but maybe once a year, their writing does have the hallmarks of care and attention given to word choice, flow etc. That being said, those are the exception rather than the rule.
Hypnotits was my favourite Robot Wars competitor
I think what annoys me about the phrase is that they don't use it to lead to a contradiction eg "England is bad, that being said, they did invent meat pies" it's just a pure linking statement "England was bad, that being said, let's get into the history of England and meat pies"
Feels a bit odd to write a piece warning of musicians being silenced for political reasons, without mentioning the UK's current and ongoing prosecution of Kneecap. Odder still when your example is a Russian soprano who's working happily for the Royal Opera House and merely been subject to criticism.
Kettlebell-lifting world record holder, David Keohan (as seen on RTE’s Tommy Tiernan Show ), will give a free talk on the Lifting Stone tradition in Ireland at Galway City Museum next Saturday www.advertiser.ie/galway/artic...
everyone keeps asking if they can fuck the flag. and that's why i am promising, in the next 4 years, that this Labour government will deliver on the Great British public fucking the flag.
You know what, fair play to Scooby Doo villains. They walk into a room dressed as a ghost, see a talking dog on its hind legs making the world’s biggest sandwich and somehow manage to stay in character.
So the reason it's called a "cover version" is because it was a separate recording and release of a song that would "cover" a different part of the market. Pop vs blues, rock vs soul etc. It's linked to the way the American music industry was racially segregated. How about that?
It's my big bug bear, it's a nothing phrase that doesn't even sound good!
I got Sierra Nevada cans that just had an R sticker on them and they were accepted. Worth trying it at least if the sticker is on there
ReTurn machines should accept bottles or cans that don’t have the logo on them… I don’t mean give 15c for them, I mean just take the fucking things. Have it for free, what am I going to do with it? Your business is recycling and you don’t want free product… that’s baffling to me.
"with that being said" is a crutch that needs to be kicked out from under most YouTubers.
As an Irish immigration lawyer there is absolutely nothing that would make me happier than completely eliminating this entire element of my business. Abolish visas completely please
House across the way from me is up for sale if anyone wants to be neighbours. Help me do entryism on the FG-leaning resident's committee.

Ireland is crying out for more representation in Hollywood.
Watching all this English flag shite going on in England and thinking about all the infuriating glib “oh you lot are all mad over there, and what’s it all about anyway, it’s ridiculous really” conversations I had to endure when training over in England. As if we were thick flag obsessed simpletons
Go to X and look at the accounts of publications like Wired or National Geographic. See how many millions of followers they have and how little engagement their posts get and then tell me that place isn't clearly dying. Despite warmly welcoming everyone who can't cut it here.
I visited a friend in the US and he told me to get a taxi from the apartment we were staying at into town while he was working. It was only a mile or so, so I thought I'd walk. The only road in was a 60mph with no hard shoulder. I got a taxi into town.

"I'm being as racist as I can" tearful Starmer tells voters
All due respect to him (take that how you may), I will not vote someone for president who has accepted a knighthood from the British empire, and I suspect there's many like me.
The brown stain on a white tablecloth left by the removed vendor is what really sells it. That is art.
To be fair, I've only seen hereditary and Midsommar of his, but I think there is more going on under the surface than "shit happens" in both of them. I don't think everyone has to love them but to say there's no point of view in them is imo incorrect. Barbarians, however, I'll grant the author that.
Ari Aster is a weird one as well. Hereditary is a film about grief tearing a family apart and Midsommar is a film about the horror of alienation and the pull of toxic relationships when you're vulnerable. "Stuff happens then the movie ends" could be said about any movie, even citizen Kane.
This is the most progressive electable offering to govern me. Can’t really express my horror - no matter what I vote I can’t do anything about it. It’s so unbelievably frustrating - I hate the NI setup more and more every day. My taxes pay to terrorise people & validate racism
I feel like it's hard to get across to my English pals that if the Taoiseach **made a point of insisting to the press** that they put Irish flags all over their house, and made sure to 'always' sit by one in their office, then they would immediately, and forever, be tainted as a massive weird freak.
Bluesky growth discourse
The saying goes that success has many fathers, but failure is an orphan. While many helped in this result, I want to single out @tupped.bsky.social for his work and (reluctantly) @garygannontd.bsky.social for taking on the risk. But it’s not over. Not until the EU says no to Israeli war bonds.
I feel the proposal to micro chip children with special needs deserves more attention than it got when the Senator proposed it.
Happy Labor Day! I see & respect the past accomplishments of the labor movement and raise u full communism
See also the Spice Bag and the 3-in-1 as an example of Irish Chinese food.
Tikka masala is British food, deep dish pizza is American food. To be more specific, the tikka masala is British Indian food and the deep dish pizza is American Italian food. That's my distinction anyway, one nation is telling where it originated from, the other is the type of cuisine it's from.
I hope they yassify the president of the United States.
I realise it's unlikely to happen, but I will not be able to take "Storm Wubbo" seriously.

Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑

You couldn't make Trigger Happy TV today. Not because of woke. It's simply that most of the audience wouldn't understand that the loud guy with the big phone was doing something bad.
my father-in-law is a “I know a guy” Guy. sadly all the old Guys are aging out of the Guy Economy. Guys are fundamentally incompatible with Hustle Culture because it’s not about “winning” a deal, it’s about collecting favors and goodwill in a mutually-beneficial cycle. protect your local Guy Economy

I truly want nothing to do with the EU anymore. No amount of economic benefit is worth the horrors they expect us to ignore. What a pathetically weak and cowardly union. We should be sanctioning Israel in every conceivable way. Not just token gestures

🚨 Wind generation is very strong today and this morning grid carbon intensity (basically: how many grams of CO₂ are emitted for each KWh generated) reached to an all-time low for August of just 92gCO₂/kWh. Winds are set to remain strong, making it a good day to charge those batteries 🔋
I've seen videos that start similarly and everyone seemed pretty happy by the end though
Well played.

Genocide doesn't have levels. There is no Richter or Beaufort type scale that measures if a genocide is better or worse. There are stages that lead to a genocide and Gaza is already at stage #9 out of 10: extermination. So...
One of my favourite things is getting to see people's faces when they learn there's an Amish/Mennonite community in Waterford.
