Can't exactly remember, but I think it was about £50 cheaper not to have Windows (Home Edition) installed.

I'm in the UK, and last year got a Lenovo ThinkPad laptop with Linux pre-installed that was cheaper than the Windows equivalent. I had a choice of RAM, SSD, display and OS. Ubuntu was the only choice of Linux, though.

All other things considered, that car just looks laughably shit. Idiots and their money...

I'll have to try Bachelor's beans the next time I see them, as well as Lidl's own when I'm near their store.

Now, what's this thread about? Oh, yeah, pirating beans. That's it. ;)

I find Heinz beans a bit watery. I prefer the supermarket own brands to Heinz... Branston's are much better and tastier, with a thicker sauce. Still, YMMV and all that jazz.

Oh, I forgot an annoying trivial issue: the Heinz cans don't stack up well (lock into place with one can on top of another).

A story that The Onion would be proud of. Could have been used as a form of self-advertising, too.

I loved how Alien brought together horror and science fiction. If it didn't do anything for you, as you admit that you're not into horror, then fair enough.

Now, I'll throw in here that I can't abide Aliens. To me, it betrayed the horror elements of Alien, making it more akin to some dumb action movie with some added schmaltz thrown in. Unlike many, I actually consider Alien3 the better film than Aliens (certainly not Alien), in that it does try to bring back the horror elements and darkness in a different way. Still, I can understand why many deride that film. The Assembly Cut does make amends, and is possibly worth watching if you didn't care about the theatrical version.

Is there a shortage of dildos in Texas that they need such laws to stop hoarding?

[–] Gort@lemm.ee 3 points 6 months ago
  1. Pulp Fiction
  2. Reservoir Dogs
  3. Jackie Brown
  4. The rest (not that fussed about them to decide their order)

Just finished watching Joker: Folie à Deux.

Admittedly it was something different, but it didn't really grab me like the first one. Being a musical and a promotion video for Lady Gaga did raise my cynicism level somewhat. Not terrible, had its moments, but a missed opportunity.

I suppose the joke's on me...
