What? Ted Lasso is really popular. The Morning Show too. Coda won best picture. All three of those are pretty mainstream. Not Netflix show levels of mainstream but certainly not li…

>> These people aren't harming anyone but themselves. If they’re driving on public roads and are sleep deprived then they are endangering others.

It’s pretty cheap. Not as cheap as it once was but £9k a year for 3 years with no difficulty in getting the loan and only having to pay it back based on income level after you grad…

I read a lot of sports news (and pay for some of it) and I've never heard of Deadspin. After reading the article I'm also struggling to figure out what they changed. Is anyone more…

>> I'll keep dreaming of a world where headlines are about the 1.5 million confirmed deaths caused by diarrhea globally But that's not news. That's well known. Also, generalising '…

If you’re going to chat shit about an important global organisation it’s worth explaining your comments. Given they were handling a once in a century pandemic I feel like they did …

How to your two paragraphs go to together? Wordpress websites can be good if they’re set up right (and that’s why Wordpress powers such a huge portion of web content). Medium devel…

>> It's difficult to feel bad for the legacy taxi industry. It's one of the most corrupt industries and totally resistant to market entrants. Comments like this are frustrating. Th…

Same goes for Champ (mashed potatoes with diced spring onions throughout). Seems super basic but really filling.

They’re not.

Lyft still hasn’t even broke out of the US and Canada.

You can “prebook” an Uber but they explicitly state that they will only try and find you a car automatically at that time, not guarantee one/arrange a driver in advance. So it’s ba…

The Uber propaganda here in this thread is insane. Taxi’s maybe have been shit but that does not in anyway justify Uber breaking the law to conquer the market (btw, now that they’v…

I read the Unit 731 Wikipedia page recently and almost wished I hadn’t. Im surprised I’d never heard about it and neither had any of my friends. Not that it’s a competition, but so…

Why’s that the message sender’s problem though? I can’t help if you pressure yourself even if I’m clear I’m putting none on you.

>> Think you're naive to what the area was before, to be honest. Without the Olympics it would have done just fine. I first lived near Hackney Wick in 2014 and it was a bit of a du…

A lot of the businesses were already struggling (as per the article) and given the 'death of the high street' and the pandemic, probably would have died anyway. It unfortunate, but…

4/22 F1 races are in 'dictatorships'. Two of chose races have existed for many years (10-20 years). Doesn't seem like there's been a rush to dictatorships based on that. Apart from…

I'm not sure I understand this. The Olympics certainly massively improved certain areas. Hackney Wick has went from a handful of warehouses and junkyards to having a brand new trai…

>> Sorry but Hamilton was ahead going into the last race He wasn’t. They were tied on points going into the last race. It was a huge talking point as it had been a long time since …

Curious what people think the consequences would be if the US was the only western country locked out of TikTok. Is it a big enough market that the app would lose its influence? Or…

Why can’t we do both? We clearly need more time so why not try to get it if we can while still also trying to deal with the root causes?
