Honestly I found it really easy to read - not sure what that says about me though. I often find this illiterate text-to-speech style is “easier” to decipher when I read it out loud (albeit in my head). I’m not sure if that last sentence will make sense to everybody.
That’s some Ye Olde Wyrlde type bullshit going on there.
I’m not a fan either. Rewatched Trainspotting a year or two ago - much better than I remembered. Enjoyed Shallow Grave and 28 Days at the time. The rest I ain’t seen. Tried to watch the Beach but bailed after 20 minutes. Absolute junk.
I personally don’t think Danny Boyle is struggling for attention; one of his films won eight Oscars. I think people in film world know who he is.
Because of the camera they used? Really?
I’ve told you countless trillions of times to stop exaggerating.
I’ve never heard of that bracelet (surprise surprise) - talk about a pipe dream. I just want to be able to view diagrams and plans on something bigger than a phone. Whilst on site and off grid. And yes, I know they’re available on paper but… reasons. We use tough-tablets sometimes but their pretty cumbersome when not in use.
More screen space in a smaller portable form is of tremendous use to some people - until projectors come of age at least.
Honestly, where I operate, almost nobody uses (outgoing) sms/mms - unless their phone has actual physical buttons on it. It’s all iMessage for those who can or something like Viber for those who can’t. I can’t see why anybody would take a step backwards to RCS when it offered nothing that we haven’t already been doing for years - and it’s apparently network dependant.
I found it tiresomely political and strangely dogmatic way too much of the time. I didn’t get the impression that there was a wide cross-section of people on there.
Perhaps if an app wants to do business in a country it should send an ambassador there to have a full time presence. Seems a reasonable compromise to me.
He really is the DJ Khaled of technology… which is not a compliment. Can people not just tell “certain sections” of Texans that an uppity African American with a couple of baby mommas and lots of money is moving in to their neighbourhood? And bringing his “business interests” with him too.
Yeah, I’m Welsh myself. I just wondered how somebody who struggled with Wmffre / Humphrey would do with the whole Wrwgwai thing. Some English speakers get it immediately others get a headache thinking about it.
Having read your comment I’d like your views on “Wrwgwai” - the South American country of Uruguay.
Right back at ya, babe.
“While doing nothing while the kid was being bullied.”? Uh… not exactly. I’ve lost friends and colleagues to both sides and you have the fucking audacity to accuse me of taking the Zionist point of view? You’re just pissed-off that your bullshit making up meanings to pre-existing words was called out. That’s all I did. I made a simple linguistic observation and without you having any idea who I am, who I’ve worked with, where I’m from and where my family are from you’ve jumped to the most inaccurate assumption you could have. Well done, genius. Round of applause for you, you absolute doughnut.
To reiterate: both sides are led/ruled by murderous scum. I “picked my side” over twenty years ago when I traveled with an NGO in the area. The side I picked back then? The civilians. Both Israeli and Palestinian. Forget you and your holier than though attitude. If you think genocide has only been going on for ten months then you are so out of the loop regarding the entire region that your opinion has now become worthless.
Can I borrow your “white-nationalism glasses” and reread my OED? Perhaps the text will read differently… Whilst I applaud your passion and presumably heartfelt desire for this conflict to stop you can’t just redefine words on a whim. Language doesn’t generally work like that.
A homophonic racist fascist? Wow. How can somebody be that stoopid? You misused a phrase that you assumed meant weak - and let’s be honest - I can see how you could arrive at that conclusion. For all I know English could be your fourth language… then you had the absolute audacity to think there’s any complexity at all to a generations long war; and not a simple one-size-fits-all approach to geopolitical crises. You brought it on yourself, blud. Ignore the prOpAGanDa and BELIEVE EVERYTHING THAT INTERNET STRANGER HAS TOLD YOU. Ffs. Smh. /s
I really miss the flashing LED from my BlackBerry Z30 - so long ago.
