World News@lemmy.world•Chaos in Belfast after anti-immigration protests turn into riots English
141·4 days agoThe hosts on Sky News were discussing their “legitimate concerns” about immigration while a live stream of minorities being burnt out of their homes played in the background which was one of the most disgusting things I’ve seen. Like there was a mum and toddler being rescued from a burning building by the fire brigade and these fucks just want to see how justifiable they can make all of this. Tonight has been one of the most sickening bouts of rioting in the city since the peace process began (like it’s this or the time they threw piss and other objects at eight year old school girls just for being Catholic) but it happens every summer, the target of hatred has just moved from Catholics to immigrants.
Came here to recommend spelling bee as well, it’s really great. I’ve binged the Australian version this week and still have NZ to go. BBC3 broadcasting the Australian version has me optimistic for a UK edition in the future.

Nebula@lemmy.world•Jet Lag: The Game - Jet Lag Season 18 - Official Trailer
3·10 days agoThis was a nice surprise, very quick off season this time
Got AC for the first time this year but I can’t get the window kit to fit. On the plus side, our new house is better insulated and we moved to a quieter area so we can have the bedroom window open a bit at night without being disturbed by as many drunk people. It’s 22°C in the bedroom at the minute which isn’t great but not so bad that the AC needs running, I’ll have to figure it out for the summer months though.
The Firefox AI controls got pushed out with the latest update, everything’s on by default but can be disabled in the settings
Yep, came with the AI update yesterday for me on Fennec. Wish they would leave Fennec as the no-bullshit version as it should be.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•I really don't understand how people have 200+ guests at their weddings.
4·25 days agoWe had less than 25 people at ours, city hall wedding with a late lunch afterwards and everyone home by 6pm. Spent the money we saved on buying a house instead, and the small number of people kept the day feeling really chill. We had a long engagement and kept putting it off because we were dreading having an expensive ceremony with everyone we’ve ever met in attendance…and then one day we just realised we can do whatever we want.

Technology@lemmy.zip•A web page that shows you everything the browser told it without askingEnglish
3·1 month agoIt has the tone of a fifteen year old that’s just read V for Vendetta which is so irritating. Maybe it would be more worrying if I used a less private browser like chrome but I’m not concerned about a website knowing I need it to load in English or what my IP address is since that’s kind of fundamental for transferring data here. The EFF one at least gives more useful information on what to fix and doesn’t condescend the reader in the process.

Games@lemmy.world•Civilization VII "Test of Time" update lands May 19, finally letting you play entirely as one civEnglish
61·1 month agoI still don’t want to touch it unless they remove Denuvo and the forced 2K launcher. Feels like with each entry it becomes less about the game and more about extracting as much money as they can through DLC while ramping up the anti-features.

Nebula@lemmy.world•Jet Lag: The Game - Taiwan Rail Rush: Finale - Debts Paid
4·1 month agoI was screaming through my screen at Sam during that whole challenge! That rock was so perfectly like a tiger’s stripes I could not believe Mike’s luck in finding it. Usually when Sam loses it’s down to terrible luck like train delays but this time for sure it was so many late-game strategy errors.

3·1 month agoVery tight at the end…
the winners
…and usually I would feel bad for Sam, but he’s been particularly hubristic this season so I was kind of happy to see him lose. But I’m glad we’re getting a full Amy season next and she was great on the mini-season so she may well lift him to victory.

1·1 month agoThis one just gave me painful flashbacks to losing my teeth to the stuff as a child, but it’s cool to see how it gets made

Nebula@lemmy.world•Jet Lag: The Game - Taiwan Rail Rush - Ep 7: Round and Round
2·1 month agoFeels like the tide is turning in Ben and Adam’s direction at last, I don’t know why Sam thinks stalemating over such a small number of chips makes sense when time is far more valuable to them than it is to Ben and Adam
There’s a pretty good video on the whole sixpenceeee situation here, for anyone that likes mini YouTube documentaries about tumblr drama

3·2 months agoNot a lot happening this episode but looks like the next one or two will be quite tense. Sam should stop trying to make chew chew choo happen, it’s not going to happen

Stardew Valley@piefed.social•[Disc] How is everyone doing with Stardew Valley?
1·2 months agoFinally made it to ginger island on my current playthrough. I’m not playing as much each day now since this is my third 1.6 update farm, so chasing those walnuts all over again isn’t exactly exciting me.

“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA”

episode spoilers
Between the Canadian independence PSA, Amy’s mini-game of trying to learn anything about Sam, Ben and Adam interrupting that couple’s date on the Mississippi and Ben falling over 5 times, I think this is the best opening episode they’ve done for a series yet
