Exactly the same for me. Full fat coke is basically the only option now if I do want one.

Right?! So basically now I drink water when I am out and about because so much stuff has fake sugar now

The god-awful taste of sugar substitutes.

A lot of people can taste things like saccharine I think? But I can taste any fake sugar, even when there is a mix of real and fake sugar in the same thing.

Aspartame/acesulfane is definitely the worst of them all, but sucralose, stevia… all of them taste like medicine kind of.

I can also taste the difference between cane and beetroot based granulated sugar. Beetroot sugar is sharper.

I feel like Prime is way more terrible.

Actually came across a useful thing the other day… if you go back 20-30s because you missed something (because you didn’t have CC on), when it restarts it will add captions for 20s.

Unfortunately that doesn’t appear to be in our corporate-approved suite 😭😭

I wonder if I can use copilot in outlook to do something similar

Didn’t use cortana directly, but the “auto block out focus time” in my work diary was a freaking game changer and I am pissed they took it away.

My brother did the same thing with the cigarette lighter in our car when we were little. I don’t think that one ever grew a full fingerprint back 😅😅

keep in mind, you fuck up a steak at a cooking job you’re out the cost of the meal + time.

What? Where?

I have the same problem but it’s two watches (despite turning off the setting that means either watch should have an alarm linked to the phone)

I was not aware the share codes last that long now, the last time I used one (for work, although this was several years ago) it was only valid for 4 days and my employer refused to accept it which was a whole thing. I was under the (incorrect) impression that the system for border clearance would be worse than that. So I have changed my mind on this point despite your flippant comment, which was argumentative for no reason.

On the case of trusting the UK government to manage the immigration status digitally for people I still have my doubts. They don’t have the best track record.

I have my own UK passport now so I am a bit out of the loop but any sort of system where a person doesn’t have offline proof of their status that they can keep seems like it is open to issues (although physical only also has its issues so there are pros and cons no matter how you approach it).

Ha! I am from the south but haven’t lived in the US since 2009…. I do still go to waffle house when I go visit my family though 😅

It’s the A1 on the hashbrowns that draws me back.

I don’t quite understand why you are dismissing this person’s concerns like this. The codes are available for a very short period so there is a chance that if there is a WiFi or other network outage they genuinely could not get to the code.

It’s also not as though the UK has the best record when it comes to managing immigrants despite their promises.

You are welcome to do a quick google on what happened to Windrush immigrants, the trouble that EU immigrants have had post-brexit, and UKVI’s general rules, wait times, and fees. Much like the US, the UK’s immigration policy has been made highly hostile to many forms of immigration, limiting options for families and managing to bungle things at several junctures.

I agree that it is hard to put faith in a system like this where your immigration status relies on the availability of a network or even a single government site with no physical or offline backups.

I’ve seen a huddle house before but never been in one… never seen a waffle king though :D

Imitation waffle house…?

Hadn’t actually thought about this but it’s a good point, they are varying the T&Cs with no consideration here.

Man I use mine all the time, I have just dance, fitness boxing and ring fit adventure.

So much easier to get up and do some sort of physical activity when it’s a game not a task.

*mario kart is the game that sits on the shelf gathering dust until the nieces come over.

Oyster crackers is a pretty good shout actually

A parliament has a maximum term of 5 years. Any change to the date of the next election will have a direct impact on the latest date of the next election.

Depends on whether or not there is a snap election this year…

My tiny gripe…

On iOS, I have set a couple weekly to-do items (recurring) that all have sub-tasks….

Except there isn’t a way to just see the subtasks? I have to click into the reminder, scroll down to subtasks and click into that.

What the heck?!?
