@linkkling game night when

@yttriumlove we are poor though so you should give me 500 dollar

@yttriumlove I think most people cope with fans which arent as expensive, but I see a rhetoric that Brits are poor for not buying things Americans get into debt for (usually substantial), not just in the case of air con due to the credit card culture (?) there

Brits are so poor they view 500 dollars to not die from heat stroke as something unaffordable and a luxury good

Mate's got a laminater on his wall, mental innit

@linkkling everyone was in city centre too so that was awful

@linkkling ive been outside all day and it feels like ive been dragging a bag of rocks around... i was not made to withstand a high of 34° where i am today

it's so hot that the aircon isn't even cooling my room down... the sun is cancelling it out somehow...

@T4LKINGTOMY23LF raw chicken on the top shelf, just let it leak into everything else. thats the way

average uni fridge

@megthekind thought you asked if you were metal and id say yeah heat resistance is pretty metal. dont think its mental though calm down mate.

am i mental or is the uk heat really not that bad

@Nottzguy79 dont like solero mate and dont tell me what to do alright

Gotta love us brits on twitter/x, one half of us are complaining about the hot weather and the other half are complaining about us complaining about the hot weather, both just need to chill and have a solero

@wfl0wrz what the fuck is apple phone i think you mean banana phone. boop de de de do

Tetris fans when you point out the game's blatant problematic oversexualization of women

@linkkling like "flank the enemy" means to move to a place of tactical advantage and is used in the context of an action whilst "attack the rear" is naming where to attack rather than the type of attack, i.e flank is both a verb and noun and rear is just a noun

@linkkling doesnt flank typically define that from your current position infront of the enemy, you need to move to a blind spot to attack, usually having to loop around but rear isnt relitive to your own current position and just means attack from behind?

i always get confused thinking "from target's flank" means from behind. because when you flank someone you sneak up behind them... so positionals always confuse me because both "rear" and "flank" mean behind to me. personally i think it should say "from target's side"

@linkkling you know as soon as a good headline article comes up theyll be grumbling like "ai discovers cure to cancer? back in my day we keeled over and died why dont we do that anymore. it made me strong and now kids these days cant even take a horse trampling like a man"

@linkkling honestly i think its because it hasnt made a hard task for them easier for us "yet"? theyll probably get angry if its ever beneficial to the youth or fixes a major issue that they saw as a standard challenge of life, that or they cannot comprehend it

why is it that all the normally anti-new technology, pro-"back in my day" boomers are the ones that are so heavily in favour of generative ai now. like what happened to insisting on doing things the old way

@linkkling yes i went through a lot of things trying to find an outlier. when i got to pilk i knew i was onto something amazing here

@akkerall u cracked the code..... milkshake is only for when the flavour isnt already a drink..

is a latte a milkshake. like it's just coffee flavoured milk. what makes it not a milkshake

@linkkling i did feel like an absolute genius writing it as if i had figured out a profound debate unanswered for millennia

@akkerall this makes sense

@linkkling additionally the latte is now a compound & becomes coffee- dominant, so bcs coffee already has a name & is a beverage we dont need to shorten it from "coffee flavoured milk" to "coffee milkshake" like we do fruit based ones because they arent a drink, but flavours to the milk

@linkkling by that logic every coffee drink that isnt just black coffee would be defined a milkshake, latte just generally has a higher milk ratio- frappe person was so right tho

go ahead step on my dumplings, i don’t even fucking care anymore
