R34 is also short for rule 34 - "if it exists, there's porn of it on the internet"

So if you search R34 and anything, you'll get porn.

The current version of Peggle is utterly unplayable, monetised trash.

However, I recently dug out a first gen iPod touch that hasn't been connected to the internet in ~15 years, it's got 1 game on it, og Peggle.

It's gained a new lease of life as a standalone peggle console and I love it.

ingredients to a recipe may well be subject to copyright, which is why food writers make sure their recipes are "unique" in some small way. Enough to make them different enough to avoid accusations of direct plagiarism.

Not sure how long it's been since you saw the movie but it starts and ends with a much older Rose in the modern era, on board a research vessel out looking for the wreck of the Titanic. While aboard she starts telling the story of her time on the Titanic, that story then becomes the rest of the film. There's a sort of epilogue at the end where she wraps it up, then passes away in bed.

I think that's what OP is talking about.

Or you really like studying worms. But that would be whataboutism wouldn't it?

So, you're in favour after Thatcher then? Because you make it sound like a direct competition.

Yeah? Well this is razzle dazzle camo I think we all know who'll be seen last.

He's the 37th of the Dirtnapbrian clan, I thought that was obvious.

It's not a crack house, it's a crack home.

That's my take on it too. It could just be natural selection - noisy, young Civs get eaten by the big bad space predator, while inherently quieter Civs survive.

So the universe could be full of life but it's the sort of life that doesn't attract attention.

There doesn't even have to be a "big bad" in this situation either, it could simply be that the sort of life that creates noisy Civs, is also the kind of life that ends up annihilating itself before it gets advanced enough to be able to make contact with others. That sort of crosses over into the Great Filter though.

I believe Starling Bank and Monzo both do virtual cards (looks like you need to pay for a Plus account in Monzo but it comes free with Starling).
