I was there last week too. Maybe we had a secret Lemmy user meetup without realising?

We had a pregnant semi-stray cat come into our house to give birth. A few days later, I’d left a drawer open and found she’d moved herself and the kittens in.

Both words are also pronounced the same in the majority of regions in England, or anywhere that doesn’t do that “rrrrrrrr” thing.

Good call. For a treat, you can then take your part-cooked potato to your local library, then wedge the potato behind a radiator for half an hour to crisp up the edges a little :)

You have to cook the potatoes or they’re poisonous, and buying and running a hob or an oven is comparatively pretty expensive in the UK. I get your point though, if you’re a bit wealthier, of course you’d be looking at potatoes or other foods - and it can get really ingredient cheap if you buy a sack of potatoes and mostly just eat potatoes :)

I would like to separate Tuvix by rescuing Tuvok and the alien orchid. The alien orchid is an important sample for study.

I think you’re fine to type, as long as you give the cat a bit of fuss and attention at the end of each sentence.

I think “intersect” keeps only the shared sections, so it would give you “Rick Man”, the exact opposite of what we need. We’d need an “exclusion” or an “XOR” to retain the non-shared sections.

Alan Wake is a boolean operation between Alan Rickman and Rick Wakeman

Oh, they added a “modesty Norway” to cover up that filthy border.

I wonder what the staff member who wrote this article had on their mind?

For biting stuff.

In the UK, the lowest guess (from the government) is “more than 10,000”. Most anti-slavery charities agree on an estimate of about 120,000 - 130,000 in the UK.

Each year, about 10,000 - 20,000 are newly referred to authorities (and potentially rescued).

Though there’s often a perception that it’s only foreign workers in the UK that get trapped like this, 25% of those are British nationals.

It’s still on my wish list, if it drops to 90% off on a sale or something - I still think I’d enjoy it.

I also worry that if nobody ever buys it, then some awful CEO will use it as proof that “Nobody likes star Trek strategy games”, and for the next decade, we’ll only get Star Trek themed first-person-arena-extraction-lootbox-shooters or whatever.

Oh my god yes.

Say goodbye to your free time for a while.

Star Trek Infinite (Steam Link) was a sort of Stellaris spin-off (same engine, same basic play method) that was apparently not bad, but not as good as the existing Star Trek mods for actual Stellaris. There were apparent plans for developing it further, DLCs etc but it got abandoned almost immediately and bugs remain unfixed.

The fun police have been along and removed it now.

Yes - I’d also fully support any lordly pun-names :)

I hope that cat’s called “Lord Percy” or “Brigadier Wilkington-Smythe” or something suchlike.

You only need to change a few ingredients for it to be nice.

Make it bread dough, and replace the M&Ms with small cubes of cheese.

Then replace the “Greek salad” bit with melted cheese.
