I’m sure this is common knowledge but Lyon’s worker uprising in the 19th century is the origin of the word ‘sabotage’. The workers were protesting against semi-automated loom weaving machines that used punch cards like primitive computers. When the managers weren’t looking the workers would through their shoes (which were called “sabos”) into the mechanism to break it.

Just got back from a holiday in Lyon. Super interesting place! I got the impression that the quality of life was good for the locals. Met a bunch of friendly Lyonnaise at a music festival and they were extremely generous sharing their party supplies.

Edit: I believe Lyon workers movement were also originators of slogans like “workers of the world unite”

I’m starting a new party for punching babies with Corbyn as leader. He’s left me on read but the media need to hear about this innovating new alternative NOW.

Separate comment: Tom English gets way too much shite in the comments section of BBC Sport articles. Makes me embarassed to have so many xenophobic compatriots. It shouldn’t be relevant but the dude is married to a Scot with two Scottish sons - what more do you want?

I think salty fans are taking our dire record against Ireland out on him.

Schoe is the man. One of my friend’s husband was the official SRU translator for Bofelli at Edinburgh and got to know him fairly well. Lovely guy - very religious - just as nice when out of the media glare. (Unfortunately confirmed a few rumours about RSA schoolboy rugby but I wouldn’t take 3rd hand gossip as fact if I were reading this comment.)

Watching the Irish crowd at the Lions - Argentina game and hearing them chant SCHOOO was heart warming.

Horne put a shift in. He should have been a Lion.

Apparently it was a non-capped test match so not sure how much it counts but I’m pleased with the effort away from home at any rate.

You tuned in at the perfect time to have a heart attack!

On a train to London right now so caught last 10 of Wales - Japan. Now watching FRA - NZ with French commentary, "mais oui, mai oui, c’est superb - quelle match!

There are at least 2 open source dating apps that I’ve seen, although one of them has 4chan branding. Not sure about the other.

Thanks for explaining

Do we need experts to tell us what the average enthusiastic gamer has been saying for years?

Gallons of GHB laced baby oil is clearly for personal use

Guilty of the original set of charges as judged by a jury who had access to way more information than random people online. Now there are new charges being added.

I suspect people who are keen on her innocence are similar to other conspiracy theorists who feel important when they are being contrarian.

Vampire Survivors and the SMT gacha game.

I have a few emulators but the touch screen controls are torture.

Other girls would call her a pickme now

Is such a good bar. Lives in my head rent-free.

My friends and I have “gaming nights” that involve about 45 mins of gaming before we all watch a Ken Russell movie or something similarly offbeat.

Left wing politicians can’t help but apply ideological purity tests to each other while the right is a large tent that all march to the same drum beat.

I liked John MacDonnel a lot but Corbyn’s views on international affairs were a real turn off

NixOS sounds like ansible in OS form and that has never seemed appealing. Happy to hear why my impression is wrong though!

What makes someone’s personality attractive (there are limits to what you can do about appearances) is self confidence and giving the impression that you have something interesting going on. Essentially you need to seem exciting to be around. That doesn’t even mean like skydiving but just having hobbies you are passionate about.

Self-improvement might be one way of getting there but it’s mainly a case of being comfortable in your own skin. I think this is why so many incels get confused about going to the gym not immediately making them desirable.

Lastly, you need to be genuinely interested in any potential partner as a person. People can sense when they are talking to someone with ulterior motives. This might be the biggest hurdle for hetro mysogynists who don’t see women as people.
