Meh, it'll take them at least an hour to get their keyboard drivers working ๐Ÿ˜‚

The own brand stuff in Lidl is excellent

I've had "Everyone Else Burns" sitting on my hard drive for a year unwatched because I thought it would be edgy atheist nonsense

Fuckin hell I've never been so wrong. Quick fire, absurdist, bizarre comedy, along with simply brilliant character studies

Highly, highly recommended

I just started using W11 after reading up on how to install it without all the bloat and spyware, and how to configure it to my liking

25 years in and I still don't see a reason to switch to Linux

Another thing is good quality washing machine cleaner/descaler/degreaser

Use it every year, or every six months in hard water areas. Drastically increases the life of your machine, and it'll keep washing like it did when it was new

Yep, that was actually an improvement. The "right click" menu change is still doing my nut in though. It was change for the sake of change

Yes, let's make this about you. Fire away

95 fucking dollars a month?!? And you reckon that's a good deal?

I'd call it Stockholm syndrome but even the Swedish know you're getting fucked up the ass ๐Ÿ˜‚

Sorry but the comment about the films is horseshit

2024 will mark about two decades of sitting through Home Alone and Die Hard, and before that it was two decades of Shitty Shitty Bang Bang (thanks autocorrect ๐Ÿ˜‚) and The Wizard of Oz

Quite looking forward to the new Wallace and Gromit though!

Oh come on, the US is usually two decades behind modern banking, 2FA over SMS is only a decade behind, so it's an improvement!

You'll have 2FA via an app like the rest of us, but in 2034

Now run along and enjoy your chip and pin

Sorry for the delay in replying. I genuinely injured my thumb ๐Ÿ˜‚

After the x-ray, the echograph then being referred to a specialist all in one day, I truly don't know how I'll recover from the โ‚ฌ55 bill

Oh wait, I just did

I remember my dad, forty-odd years ago, explaining that when you see an advert on TV, the company advertising there spent thousands to millions in order to put that advert there, and when you buy their products, you're paying for not just the product, but also their advertising costs

It's a hundred times more true now. You're paying for the product, the advertising, and the hugely inflated CEO salaries

Chances are the actual product is worth 30% of the retail price

I get most of my stuff from 1337x but fuck me, it's just all Hallmark TV films and wrestling series now!

Edit - sorry I'm not actually living in the UK; I fell asleep and missed the answers lol Thanks everyone, I'll do a bit more investigation into your suggestions
