@chartier I’ve been waiting for Apple to bring Apple Card to the UK. Maybe if they find a new underlying provider they’ll be able to expand internationally!

@stuart we’re talking about a nation that invented Tories. I don’t think they’ll ever be okay.

“Sometimes you just have to look past the artist (the English) and appreciate the art (marmalade)” – Paddington

@stuart the wanky bit is creating a brand of marmalade to celebrate a 200 year old naval battle.

@vinnycoyne I thought y’all were trying to make us Nordies feel at home in a United Ireland by having the kind of civil disturbance that we like.

@opsGordon as you predicted, Pigments is on sale for €99. Might wait until my credit card month ends, but think I’ll pick this up! https://www.arturia.com/store/software-instruments/pigments

@liamodunne Badger Badger and Viking Kittens. You remember Jamie and his Magic Todger?

@liamodunne thankfully you didn’t need to explain it to me!

@acf only messing. This is a brick of coffee from LIDL 🙂

@acf nice! Turns out I have it as well, but I lost the outer plastic.

@stuart @ianRobinson our current microwave was bought to furnish my kitchen when I bought my first house in 2005.

@ianRobinson I think tomorrow is Veterans Day. Memorial Day is the last Monday in May.

I’m not sure any software makes me feel as good about computers as spreadsheets do.

@jsnell have they got into the modern era where we can examine the alt timeline for the iMac Pro that the latest episode of Upgrade got me thinking about? 😉

@ianRobinson not on your life! Those folks are doing my dream job. I’d love to spend my entire time building flat pack!

@ianRobinson this was what arrived for us on Sunday. Just one wardrobe left to build!

I don’t mind getting an item from IKEA that has been returned and repackaged as new, but it’d be nice if they had checked that the returned materials included all parts. The instruction booklet was in two parts, one part folded, the parts packet arrived ripped open, and the parts were wrong (as compared to the booklet).

@ultranurd doesn’t work so well with the British English pronunciation of “dew”!

@jamesthomson @cabel I’ve been enjoying the Ringway Manchester channel on YouTube lately. If you’re not already watching it could be a good starting point: https://youtube.com/@RingwayManchester

@intheseheels Bourbon Creams are the nicest biscuit, but they need to be done right. My wife, much as I love her, is blind to the differences and the importance of those differences. And that is why I sleep in the spare room.
