I’m getting this too.

Is it better than pussy?

I have to add some jam when I have peanut butter on toast, for some reason I find it really dry.

I’m literally in this picture and I don’t like it :D

Jokes aside, the extreme politics that stem from some instances will only hurt the the growth of the fediverse.

I don’t think we should defederate from lemmy.ml but I’d certainly recommend users adding it to their list of blocked instances. Hopefully less people end up using the communities on the instance and its significance in the overall fediverse dwindles.

“Be nice and civil” - which is a fair enough rule, but it’s always used as a blanket ban. Most of the removed comments weren’t hostile or uncivil

The thread was posted into the memes community too so there’s always going to be a bit of banter, but most comments that weren’t in support of China were removed.

I’ve never even been to a Pret, just never see them anywhere.

That said, Greggs is really overrated.

What a bargain, I think I’ll pick up two just in case my kids destroys one of them.

It’s only slightly more expensive, surely it’s worth it!

My wife and her mum have gone away until Monday, so I’ve got both the kids all weekend. They’re keeping me on my toes! I’m trying to find the time to watch the F1 qualifying but don’t have a chance.

Only found out at 8:30 this morning that my daughter has a birthday party to go to at 10:45, and my wife has the car so might have to chance cycling there and hopefully avoid the rain.

Does this include teachers, water treatment workers, bin collectors, nurses, doctors, nuclear power plant workers, firemen, train and bus drivers, care and social workers?

I’ve heard people doing this and then getting black listed from the entire banking system. Can’t open bank accounts, access any credit, and the banks don’t have to tell you why you’re blacklisted. It’s supposed to be very very difficult to undo.

Well at least they’ll be well prepared for summer.

I’m sorry to hear about your friend and auntie.

I’ve heard a lot of people say they enjoyed Istanbul, what did you enjoy about it?

We hired a big house in Wales for our wedding, it was lovely! We stayed in Llandeilo in Carmarthenshire, overlooking the valley, it was gorgeous. Huge house, hot tub, decent garden, it was perfect. If I had a group of friends then I’d definitely head back.

My only experience of Africa has been Tunisia which I really enjoyed. There’s so much of the world I’d love to explore but, time, money, children!

Yeah we’re thinking of heading to Cornwall, we’ve always gone to a decent caravan park at the start of September before my son began school, but now we’re having to look in the summer holidays and the prices are crazy!

The holiday with friends sounds fun, enjoy!

This might be better in United Kingdom or even a political memes community, personally I’d try and keep this community strictly politics free.

I’ve been watching a lot of car reviews lately and yeah, I think you’re right on all points. I watched a review of the new BMW 7 series and even the air control vents are capacitive sensors refer than little levers and it just seems unnecessary. What was hilarious was that the door release is right by the air vent control, so the review I watched saw the reviewer accidentally open the door when they were trying to control the air vent.

There’s way way way too much reliance on touch screens in cars. I’m not even sure if you’d legally be allowed to use them in some countries, I feel like you’d have to pull over to just change the HVAC settings! You’d swear it was designed by someone that’s never driven a car. They’re decisions that are probably coming right from the top and the actual interior designers are pulling their hair out.

There’s also a common theme across manufacturers where settings for features are lost when the car is switched off. So you have to go into the settings and change them back every single time you get into the car.

If I were in the market for a car (specifically electric), I’d probably go for Kia. The ev6 and ev9 look really nice. I’ve seen a couple of EV9s on the road recently and I was surprised at how much smaller they actually seem than on videos.

Like you though we’re going to keep our car (Nissan Quashqai) as long as possible. There’s no bullshit and it’s practical and comfortable.

On a slightly unrelated note, the Mercedes EQ class are really ugly, both internally and externally.

The human does it out of self preservation, but the car doesn’t need to feel too preserve itself.

By getting the in the car, the passengers should be aware of the risks and that if there is an accident, the car will protect pedestrians over the occupants. The pedestrians had no choice but the passengers have a choice of not getting in the vehicle.

I feel like car manufacturers are going to favour protecting the passengers as a safety feature, and then governments will eventually legislate it to go the other way after a series of high profile deaths of child pedestrians.

Not sure if theyre technically cartoons, but Thunderbirds and Stingray.
