Completely agree, I was trying to avoid the “well actually” response.

I’ve had a number of items get held by FedEx (or whoever) because of import duties over the years and I’ve had to pay the delivery company to get it released.

This is a well worn path, and kudos to this one to warn you that new tarrifs are in place, the customer would be subject to them, and giving them an option to decline it.

Import duties are not always part of the agreement.

They didn’t change the rules, there is now a charge by the government on it getting delivered, not by the company.

And we have that too.

We are talking about standard sockets, they all have off switches on the socket.

You have a switch for your electrical sockets by your door? What a weird place to put them all.

We have our light switches by the door. Much more useful.

Are you claiming that people condemning invasion of Ukraine are bad then?

Because “the entire west” does not condemn true socialism, or communism.

Vocal mouthpieces do.

The UK general election in 2019 had 40% of seats go to Corbyn, vs 42% going to the Tories. There is work to be done, but the reported numbers don’t get the profile of reality.

Not sure what you are talking about.

No one condemns Jews for being Jews, people condemn trapping people in walled camps, denying them food and aid and then blanket bombing them. Regardless of the perpetrator.

The Nazis are the ones supporting it.

Misleading by omission is deception

You’ve never heard of people bending the truth?

Saying something factually correct, but misleading because parts are omitted?

I guess I’ll just have to get one from somewhere with a good returns policy.

I would prefer it without any cables, but I’d take it over a bad picture, or from a platform like Oculus.

Even with Wifi6? Thats disappointing.

I’ll just keep waiting for the next Steam VR. Hopefully thats just a direct, dedicated wireless HDMI.

Although even a USB 4 cable would be fine. I just dont have the space for all the room cameras.

Are these worth getting for Steam VR?

Does anyone have one that they use for Steam VR and can talk to how well they work?

You can support Palestine as a people right to live, and condemn Israeli blanket bombing without supporting Hamas’ shooting civilians.

Or did you also struggle with condemning British occupation of Ireland, whilst also disagreeing with the IRA bombing of civilian targets?

Your confusing a state with a people.

Hama’s want to stop Israel (the state) from existing as they occupy their territory, and make them live in internment camps.

Israel wants to stop the Palestinian people from existing, because they are an inconvenience.

On a related tangent, because I see that this is mostly discussed to death, I dont get why Americans decided to merge other unrelated words.

For example, being exhausted and the rubber circle that cars and bikes use to roll smoothly are the same word in American English whereas we (UK) use different spellings.

Tire - Being exhausted

Tyre - Round rubber wheel thing

Funny jokes are welcome.

That was more the type of thing the annoying kid at the back of the class shouts out, where even their friends tell them to shut up.

Not following strangers advice != Doing the opposite of what strangers say

I didn’t think that you were. I was criticising Notepad as a really shitty “editor”.

I personally set tabs to 2 spaces, but then thats the beauty of tabs over spaces. You can have two or four, or even eight if you hate yourself without impacting anyone else.

People who demand spaces are Republicans, they want to force their 2/4/8 space rule on you even if it is inconsequential.

Its funny that the argument against tabs is purely because someone once opened a file in a shitty editor.

jigantic

I read that as Jig-antic. I would have to turn it into jygantik for it to sound the same.

Not American here. Why would you put the punctuation inside the quotes unless you are quoting punctuation? Unless I misunderstood what you mean.

For example:

Bob wrote “this is amazing!”.

Bob used an exclamation point, so I quoted an exclamation. If it is the end of my sentence then I use a full stop, if I quote it then it would imply the end of their sentence even though it wasn’t.

Frazorth is amazing when he speaks, as I never knew someone could be quite so incoherent.

Would be quoted as

Bob said “Frazorth is amazing.”

It distorts the context.
