  • 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.



  • This is factually incorrect.

    They can sell it for whatever price they want on other platforms.

    What they can’t do is sell the freely generated Steam keys on other stores for less than the cost of selling them on Steam.

    So they cannot put a game on Steam, then generate 100 free keys and put them on Greenman Games for 30% less than Steam. They can definitely put it on Epic for 30% less and let Epic pay the hosting and distribution.







  • On the one hand we have

    Man claims he needs benefit that he no longer gets

    And on the other we have no critical analysis or explanation of how the cap works and why £2.50 would reduce benefits by £500. Without this it sounds like “old man grumbles”.

    If this is true then its awful, but I would have hoped that a BBC article would provide a bit more context.

    If these people are really that bad off then we should just provide a better pension rather than fucking around with lots of tiny allowances. Either people dont have enough money and have to choose between heating and eating and we support them, or they don’t.

    I need some, any, context before I can understand this.




  • What’s being green got to do with being left wing?

    This is really the problem with left/right, you can be green and Tory or Labour. Green has little to do with supporting workers rights or supporting the church and monarchy.

    [Edit] To clarify, being against building and preferring green spaces is a green position and also a driver for NIMBYs.

    Tories get played as fools by their own party constantly, the little old dears in church voting Tory aren’t supporting them because they keep moving more fash.
