@flying_rodent The fact it doesn't make money worries me, if the product is free then you're the product. They're getting data to build these models. It's useless for most folks but if a fair percentage come to enjoy not having to pay creative employees, think, etc then it'll be £££ a month
The two types of UK Chancellor:
I was born into wealth which makes me an expert on economics and the solution is austerity.
I was born into an honest to goodness working class home which makes me an expert on economics and the solution is austerity.
The wild thing is for me is that this is centrist. This is a fair and sober, accurate description of how things are. But 99% of media figures paint a fundamentally different picture.
Who is it that’s watching all that deliberately inflammatory daytime TV, listening to talk radio, still buying our poisonous newspapers and roasting their brains on Facebook? It’s not the kids.
Now that the Greens have won 4 seats , can we please have endless discussions on every media outlet about the rise of progressive politics & how important saving the planet is to the UK electorate.
@DanOconnor1984@Zonal_Marking Exactly this. I'd happily live with decisions being wrong half of the time if it meant I could actually celebrate a goal again
Because the Labour right and the British press, working closely together, have successfully turned “wanting to improve society somewhat” into wild extremism and borderline treason, and because they both think behaving as badly as they can with impunity is great fun, a blast.
@JohnBrewin_ The dumb thing is that if even one of these hand-wringing managers put together a less one-eyed case including examples of awful VAR from OTHER teams' games, we might have a chance of binning the whole mess
I mean, define “failed” here. They’re all still in their jobs, the country’s politics have been buckled and fucked into a shape much more to their liking and none of them are expressing any regret at all over their conduct. It seems to me they’ve succeeded quite spectacularly.
Yes, and it’s not even double standards. There are *no standards of any kind* that apply to these people and the only thing that’s real is “fuck you, we get what we want, or else”.
