Hmmmmm 🤔 Not sure if satire or scam...

Hugh_Jeggs ,

I've always considered CNN to stand for Clearly Not News

Edit - the BBC headline starts "ICC prosecutor seeks arrest of..."

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Where I am, there's an import tax on everything you order from the UK

But the post office has slapped their own €8 service charge on top of that

Literally everyone I know has stopped ordering stuff from UK companies

That's really gotta hurt an economy, big time

Hugh_Jeggs ,

This is one person rambling about stuff she's hypothesising

"They didn't pay sales tax for the first couple of years"

Do you even know how small businesses get off the ground in Europe? Possibly by being exempt from taxes until their profits are high enough?

Says their financial information is impossible to find, then starts telling us exactly what that information is

This is the same as people watching a YouTube channel and just assuming it's gospel because they watch that channel a lot smh

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Yeah that drives me nuts too. Shopping results for fuckin Home Depot? I'm in Europe you stupid search engine

Hugh_Jeggs ,

if you want to read some more critical commentary

What I read was a measured and reasoned reply from one of the founders to a small handful of keyboard warriors 😂

Hugh_Jeggs ,

I find 90% of people who bleat about paywalls are Apple users and think Firefox is an 80s Clint Eastwood film

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Is this what Komoot uses?

I've been so impressed with the pathways etc, it's amazing

Hugh_Jeggs ,

I have a solar powered tomato plant

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Now, now, there's no need for that kinda talk.

We should probably stick to talking about Rampart

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Pale ale and IPA are the same, IPA should have spicy, earthy aromas

It's just that IPA became fashionable, and new brewers cover up their inexperience in brewing by adding way too many hops

Looking at you, USA

Hugh_Jeggs ,

"What was his name?"

"David"

"I'm sorry to hear that, are you holding up ok?"

You'd be a shite doctor 😂

Hugh_Jeggs ,

No idea what the article has to do with bellringers

Hugh_Jeggs ,

I'm starting to dislike the word "leaks" being used in place of "advertised" almost as much as I despise seeing the word "slams" in headlines

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Lemmy user has prostate problems, slams his cock against toilet in attempt to produce leaks

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Every single version of DiRT Rally has MASSIVE cheating problems

Really spoiled the online stages

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Sounds like something someone from the shittiest country on earth would assume

Hugh_Jeggs ,

For the Americans, 1000g is about four sausages

Proton Annual Survey: Gentle reminder to kindly ask for a Linux Client for Drive, now. ( www.youtube.com )

The link right here goes to 40:02 of Proton' boss on the TLE channel about Linux support, where a Drive Client is deemed so difficult to achieve that they don't even have a roadmap for it. Nor is the word "Linux" featured anywhere on proton's pages about Drive....

Hugh_Jeggs ,

I will do as you ask

If yous manage even once to not invade a single thread about Windows with your smug, self-congratulary comments

I really like these because they're convenient. I call them a hoodie.

Then I realised I never use the hood and it's kinda uncomfortable when you put a jacket on in winter

So I bought one without a hood

That was the day I realised I'd bought what was essentially my first cardigan :(

Hugh_Jeggs ,

You keep telling yourself that when you're 50 my friend 😂

Hugh_Jeggs ,

That's what irks me about this lazy dropping of the 'of' after 'couple'

"I saw a couple birds"

You saw them do what now?

Hugh_Jeggs ,

"French" Canadian got off lightly on this on then?

Hugh_Jeggs ,

In what sort of un-free shitehole is that a law?!?

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Has anyone any experience of Ulefone stuff

Seems like it'd be good for clumsy fuckers like me, and useful on building sites too

Hugh_Jeggs ,

You've clearly never worked on a building site 😂

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Hmm this is your only comment on the whole fediverse, and the guy below found malware on one of the installed apps

Guess I'll be giving this brand a big fuckin swerve 😂

Hundreds arrested, roads barricaded in New Caledonia as riots continue ( www.reuters.com )

SYDNEY, May 16 (Reuters) - Armed forces were protecting New Caledonia's two airports and port after a third night of violent riots that have killed four people, the Pacific Island's top French official said on Thursday morning, adding at least four alleged instigators were under house arrest....

Hugh_Jeggs ,

This sounds very French. Try passing a law in France that says says you can't vote unless you were born there and see how long it takes before someone sets your car on fire

Hugh_Jeggs ,

I would guess you have a palate more used to high fructose corn syrup than high tree foreign shit

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Hey why you dissing Yorkies like that? ☹️

Hugh_Jeggs ,

It's not beautiful when it's confusing and badly presented

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Here's one you never heard of - Gung Ho by Shaka Ponk

Hugh_Jeggs ,

I spent about ten seconds trying to parse the first two words of that title.

Chief's kicker

Chief kicker

Chief's kicker

It makes absolutely no sense no matter how you read it

Hugh_Jeggs ,

A team? A team of what? Netball students? Ping pong players?

Hugh_Jeggs ,

What about if I read it and thought, well online communities are hostile towards everybody?

Hundreds of counties around the USA have ended in-person jail visits, replacing them with video calls and earning a cut of the profits ( www.newyorker.com )

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Which country?

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Mine refers to me in an annoying childhood nickname :(

Wot a cunt

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Like if they were Brits lol

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Maybe it was ham I dunno

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Is the only way to stop seeing the same news articles half a dozen times, to block the user?

Annoying as fuck when it's posted again and again by the same person, but sometimes it's a story worth reading

Bit of a conundrum

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Sounds like something someone who's never licked the ocean would say

Hugh_Jeggs ,

I don't think anyone thinks of the US as the free world©®™ any more lol

Hugh_Jeggs ,

I think what they're saying is that both countries are subsidising the industries.

Chinese companies are thinking ahead and using the subsidies to sell more vehicles

American companies are, surprise-sur-fucking-surprise, stealing the subsidies to make a few billionaires richer

Hugh_Jeggs ,

If you think that the alt right is rising in other countries due to trump, that what the rest of us call American Exceptionalism

We've been at this since before your country existed you daft cunts smh

Hugh_Jeggs ,

Except the author of the comic strip, yes

Hugh_Jeggs ,

I'm guessing you're American.

It's ok that you have a misunderstanding about how different nationalities interact with eachother in Europe

The whole of western Europe has this level of sarcasm that an American brain can't even fathom, and a love for their fellow Europeans that you definitely can

We will absolutely rip the piss out of eachother, and pretend we hate the very sight of eachother, then upon meeting a person of a different nationality, spend the entire night drinking and laughing and taking the piss, and the next day comparing national hangover foods

Americans read sarcasm as aggressive because they are, Europeans read sarcasm as a joke because they are 😂

TL/DR Fuck you

Hugh_Jeggs ,

How many of the people that vote for her would know that Macron is a world leader of a global power?

"Oh that liddle guy? Didn't he burn down the Noder Dayme or somethin?"
