I read that book about 30 years ago! I didn’t remember the eye-scanning gargoyle, but for some reason I still remember the phrase “Ultima Ratio Regum” from the nuclear powered gun.

The poor old White Scars were put out of reach for me by GWs old Tip-Ex-like white paint. Despite what the guides might have said, there is no way that the models were base-coated with the Skull White of the time.
I don’t think the word needs to imply a creator necessarily.
“Clouds are created when water vapour in the air condenses”.
“Black holes are created when giant stars collapse”.
I’ll concede that going on to question political motive implies a creator, though.
I assume you’re talking about the Unifying feature.
I’ve got no direct experience, but there are a few people who say that despite Firefox not being listed as supported, it works fine.

As for the spying, I can see how that could be a concern, but I don’t think it’s too likely.
For convenience, I’m guessing they’re using a web interface to the settings in the same way that your router does. They’ve made a Chrome plugin, so that’s probably the route they want you to take because they know it works.
Logitech is a global brand, an they’d get into a lot of trouble in a lot of countries if they were gathering keypress data etc.
Advanced Heroquest!
This was my first Games Workshop game (outside of the Milton Bradley co-productions, of course).
Fell in love with the Skaven then, still love them now.
I love Edith Pritchett’s stuff!
That’s absolutely fine. If you want to be wrong, that’s your right.
I’m sorry if this offends you.
I wish I had your confidence that capitalism can be tweaked into a fair system.
I honestly think the logical end point to capitalism is self-destructive extreme wealth disparity.
Sorry pal, it’s not me creating these “new” definitions of words. Take it up with the Gender Studies bods who are literal experts in this field.
No one is getting hurt because of factual logical opposition. Trans women are not real women. This is a biological fact.
Sorry, wrong on two counts.
Although they’ve been used interchangeably, because typically they align, sex and gender are two separate concepts. I’m sorry if this offends you.
Trans women are women (gender), although they are not biologically female (sex).
These are facts. I’m sorry if this offends you.
Tbh, it seems like you’re the main party here sticking their fingers in their ears. If someone has already identified Lemmy as a place that doesn’t welcome their prejudices, then would they still post that stuff here?
Look, I’ll be helpful. If you want to dunk on trans people, go to Mumsnet - that place has turned into TERF Central.
“Oof. Right in the blocks”
“What a load of absolute blocks”
“It’s the dog’s blocks”
Camera zoom into extreme closeup. “oh… blocks”.
Yep, that’s the one.
Where did you go?
Each time or cumulatively?
Even imagining this pronunciation hurts my ears.
I think you’re a little off on the “we need to fix this world” guys.
Although zombie films / TV series lean heavily into the action side of things, that’s just because it’s more entertaining than watching people building things, developing tech, doing scientific research.
Remember with COVID 19? Huge numbers of people immediately set out to find a cure, inventing and deploying ways to prevent and monitor the spread, creating pop-in treatment centres, etc.
I used to take this to school with me to read during form periods!
I’d been a fan of them since they appeared as a proper army in White Dwarf, although I remember being a bit disappointed that the weird and colourful squigs had been functionally replaced with chubby little rippers.
And for anyone wondering, even for the time the old Zoanthrope looked stupid.
It’s the money-men making the decisions now, instead of people who actually care about the product.
Mind you, this isn’t sustainable - by shifting to the more “luxury” end of the hobby, and their refusal to embrace emerging technology, they’re creating huge gaps in the market for exploitation.
They’re on the verge of Nokia-ing themselves out of market dominance.
Just beautiful.
This is exactly the kind of picture that captured my imagination as a kid.
if they don’t have some already, 100% on the Brio train set - except not Brio. The generic wooden railway sets are just as good nowadays, and many many times cheaper.
You can buy a whole dinosaur themed wooden railway set on Amazon for £37. I’d want that, even as an adult!
FWIW, both of my kids played with their wooden railway for years - seriously good investment.
