Like Wallace and Gromit but instead of cheese it’s biscuits.

I just searched the same words and got the same text.

I got exactly the same. Firefox on android and in the UK. Perhaps it's regional.

I'm curious, why are you putting the £ symbol after the number and not before?

I don't know about personality and soul but it does appear to make it more relatable.

Indeed. Beat it, but at what cost.

My mum beat cancer. She lost parts of her body in the process and chemo changed her physically (her hair and nails never came back the same). It took three years of regular testing to finally be given the "you're officially cancer free" verdict. Three tense years.

All that said she's incredibly lucky not only to have beat it but not to have to live with additional medication due to it. I know somebody who lost a lot more and while is alive now needs a lifetime of medication to "put in" what the partial removed organs no longer produce.

It's also the ease of it. I travelled to Indonesia a while back thinking I could pick up a SIM card once there. I didn't realise you have to register the phone itself for tax reasons (?) to white list the IMEI of the phone before buying a SIM card. It was loads easier just to buy a roaming eSIM after I arrived. In hind sight I probably could have got a better package had I shopped before hand but it got me out of a tricky situation.

Wasn't there a movie where LL Cool J was the bad army guy who was using kids video games as remote controls for real war weapons? I want to say I saw it in the late 90's but it's possible my flakey memory is making this all up.

Yes that's is! It's older than I remember.

I did similar a couple of year ago excluding the graphics card (kept my existing 1070). Spent about £1000 on a new setup for mostly gaming only to realise I hardly use it. Great PC, just wished I had time to use it more.

If they're anything like me then the game is called Family and it's on difficult mode.

What's wrong with having a beer with your tea?

I've been upset for about 10 years or so. I used to use the Love Film service where I got two Blu-ray at a time posted to me. The company was bought my Amazon. Ok, don't like Amazon but that's fine, I like the service still. They then incorporate it into their Prime package. I didn't want anything else, just discs by post. To retain the disc service it cost more than just prime as prime was a requirement. They sneaked Prime onto my account without me realising and the price went up. They were phasing people from discs to online by making it the cheaper option. They then phased the disc service out altogether.

They literally bought Love Film to shut it down.

I'm was happy renting blurays. I switched to buying Blu-ray for a while but I have no where to keep a collection. So I have up and switched to Kodi.

Quite sad really. I still have what were then two good quality Blu-ray players now collecting dust. I sometimes look at them and think one day...

I used it for a short time when it first came out. I went back for another look recently. I haven't a clue what is what. So much going on. I thought I don't wish to spend the time learning something I probably will use a couple of times a week.

Is this what getting old feels like?
