  1. THE F-35 is machined out of a solid billet of Corruptium, one of the world most expensive metal alloys, its similar to Titanium but due to the addition of corruption, it costs 30 times as much.

  2. BY FAR AND AWAY THE BEST EXPLANATION the BBC as it used to be - helpful, reliable and informative

  3. BORIS WONT BE HAPPY IF THE FRENCH negotiate a deal over this - THIS is his primary distraction from cake ambushes and ABBA parties...

  4. My friend lives in Utah for her job at a hospital there. She is mandated BY LAW to have a lawn and to have sprinklers to keep it green and lush - which she does not want. She wants desert plants. This is the best bit - this is so American. She is not ALLOWED to cut her own grass she has to pay the approved contractor that belongs to the housing developer to cut her grass... What a f-ked up messed up country. BTW - its not filling the pools thats the problem cos that's a one-off thing - its that they dont have pool covers on them to stop evaporation cos its "inconvenient" to have to remove it when you want to use it.

  5. this tiny sample - smaller than a government ministers brain - is telling us so much about the universe

  6. No its not - its the UK and the USA's distraction - anyway the Queen has covid so the Ukraine crisis is over.

  7. It means some private equity companies might not be able to price gouge the consumer - that's the crisis

  8. MY FIRST BOOK took me 5 hours a day, 6 days a week for 18 months - and then the editor threw 65% of it in the bin and reduced it from 300,000 words to 100k and make it WAY better. When I got my first Amazon review and it was 5* and glowing I cried my eyes out and it took me a year to stop crying at the reviews - me, the dyslexic kid who could not read or write at 13, the kid who took 5 attempts to pass his English "O" Level had written a book and people LIKED IT. The key is dedication and consistency - write 1000 words a day no excuses was my mantra.

  9. Im a Brit living near Sunny Beach in Bulgaria and I can say [to my shame] its not a stereotype. I can almost 100% guarantee if you see a brawl, if you see lads so dunk they are lying in a pile of sick in the street, if they are shagging up against a trash container - they are British.

  10. MEETING JD VANCE WAS TOO MUCH FOR HIM I'm not religious but he was a great pope

  11.  @Backlawn  - It is in a country built for a maximum of 90F. For a population only acclimatized to 80F. when it got to 100F in 2019 - 1200 people died... So you want to tell the people who will die today that " It’s really not that bad but okay man… " ???

  12. Yeah Iran will soon have a talk

  13. NEARLY ALL "feel good" stories of people doing wonderful things for others in the media - are actually horrific entitlements on the state of society. AND the "Buy Nothing" is no exception 1) we should ALL be doing this anyway, its idiotic buying new stuff and throwing perfectly good stuff in landfill, I have been "buying nothing" for 5 years. 2) People are doing it our of desperation which is horrific 3) if it becomes the norm it will just allow wages to go even lower as a % of a house, subsidised by people living on second hand gifts.

  14. @Oink Oink OMG you people - I DONT LIKE Biden but for the love of GOD have some creativity. It is depressing that you keep reminding me how stupid people are.

  15.  @christee9590  - I always love the intellectual comments on YouTube.
    26
  16.  @Thepoweroftheriffcompelsme  "Advertising as party hot spots, serving very cheap alcohol, " this is the exact mistake they made here in Bulgaria in the early 2000. Appealing to this demographic to get trade and now they regret it.

  17.  @PoochieCollins  - 10 people in my apartment block died, most were my friends, I have long covid. It really deeply annoys me, and hurts me when people say its not real.

  18. Rich people, you have to make an effort to find rich people cos they are important. Losing a Billionaire is like losing a God in a capitalist society

  19. For Shitsrael and Trump - the ultimate waste. I would not sacrifice a small potato for either of them

  20.  @JeatBunkie  TBH many are. The real experts are incredibly scathing about this sub and its design - I quote you the comment below "Painting it hi-vis orange like a lifeboat would seem to be an obvious precaution to take." What colour do you think most subs are..??? Bright orange, bright red, bright yellow or bright neon green - you see @JohnDoe-tx8lq IS smarter than the engineers on this sub. They painted it cool white with a trendy eye design on the front. Why does it not have a manual release float to the surface EPIRB [radio beacon] as well as a galvanic corrosion released EPIRB so if its under the water form 24 hours a locator floats to the surface and notifies you of its position? This sub is NOT a good example of design.

  22. We DEFINITELY have to up the regulations and working practices on renovating historic buildings and things - the Cutty Sark, Notrodame, This. Its ALWAYS when they are being renovated.

  23. You cant have wireless coms at that depth - you would need an umbilical - umbilicals get snagged so they are a safety hazard. BUT - you can have a comms-only fibre optic umbilical that has an explosive decoupler so if it gets snagged you blow the umbilical and return to the surface -BUT its money, it makes every dive more complicated as you have to wind in the umbilical as they rise back up, it can get damaged recovering in rough seas. A PROFESSIONAL operation would have one, a professional operations would have a backup ROV to assist and a professional operations would have a controller made of space grade engineering with 2 levels of redundancy

  24.  @archiebald4717  - NO WE DID NOT ALL BREAK THE RULES - you are a terribly selfish excuse for a human being and DO NOT try to justify YOUR terrible selfish behaviour by taring all of us with your disgusting brush.

  25.  @common_sense_supreme  - OMG I hate stupid people so much.

  26. Frank Worsley - the guy who navigated a tiny lifeboat to South Georgia, a micro speck in the vast south atlantic. I figured we could rely on his location for the wreck. Shackelton was probably the best leader of men in history - Frank Worsley, probably the best navigator...

  27.  @jimpickins7900  - Thats funny cos its so on point...

  28. THE LEVEL OF BIAS HERE IS UTTERLY SHOCKING As a British person living in the EU I am disgusted at the BBC - Ir4ns air defences are among the best in the world and at least as good as the "Iron Dome" The difference is Iran is MASSIVE and Shitrael is tiny. Ir4n is paying for its own air defence, whereas Shitrael is getting t for free from the US.

  29.  @MrVioletpandora  THESE F-35's sure do crash a LOT.

  30. They voted Brexit - they got Brexit. Britain exits the developed world...

  31. ELON MUSK "I paid $44 billion for a company that loses $400 million a week" Also ELON MUSK "Im guest speaker at an investor conference"

  32.  @mthompson0331  - She is IT director for the hospital so its NOT a financial problem. But not being a total arse she wanted to make the garden location appropriate to help with the water problem. Id absolutely get surprised by a HOA thing cos I live in Europe and we don't have them THANK GOD. Just another thing that makes me laugh when Americans tell me how they have "FREEDOM" My neighbour is literally distilling whisky in his garden as I type this - that's legal here the ATF won't be around to arrest him LOL. But it might explode cos that happens a lot - hehehehe

  33.  @stoufer2000  - Well it would have reduced the earth to a smouldering pile of nothing. God you people are so jingoistic and dumb.

  34. The Queen has covid so the Ukraine crisis is over. Thats a WAY better distraction
    14
  35. Russia is not going to invade - this is all Boris distracting from cakes and Biden distracting from achieving nothing. I live in Bulgaria and I have many friends in Ukraine - no one here is worried. If Russia is to invade it will be in November when he can cut off the gas to Ukraine and the EU.

  36. IM literally a communist and I feel deeply sorry for the queen. At this point, I would hand the country over to her to run if it meant taking it off Johnson and the rest of them... Cos its not JUST Johnson - its the culture of the lot of them.
    13
  37.  @Scarz3ny  - HAHHAHAHAHHAHHAHA - you are such a joke. The only good thing here is Russia knows the UK is a wet collapsing island in the Atlantic and it can ignore it. If the UK had any power this situation would be dangerous. But they can take the insult of sending an unprepared Liz Cheese Monster Truss and just ignore it.

  38. Good luck grappling with reality

  39. " will take Israel less than a month to completely decimate Hezbollah." AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAH. oh man you are SO delusional

  40. Reading the comments they are definitely NOT looking up
    12
  41. over in the US they are taking credit for "providing the intel needed" HAHAHA they cant accept its not 1995
    12
  42.  @Martial-Mat  Im angry cos she is a human being who was grieving and that POS Johson was partying. And now this has come out it wil have opened up that wound agian like it has for tens of thousands of other families. its the needless narcissistic hurt he has caused cos he does not give a sh!t who he hurts
    12
  43. THAT WASNT A METEOR that was the dreams of Brexiteers burning up on reentry to reality...
    12
  44. Another 15 years of tory rule in the UK and you will find out first hand how it happened, 8 to 10 if you move to the USA. This is not hyperbole - look up the "Here are 14 early signs of fascism by Laurence Britt" and ask yourself how many the UK Govt ticked off THIS week alone...

  45. THANK YOU FOR RESTORING MY FAITH IN HUMANITY to both the seller and the buyer who paid 103 X the usual price
    12
  46. YEAH BUT BE REASONABLE - ELON NEEDS TO GET RICHER...!!! he HAS to make a profit even if it ends scientific astronomy - surely that's a small price to pay to make the richest man on earth even richer...?
    11
  47. Thats not true - a lot of people, like my sister, who could very easily afford the fines - stook to the absolute letter of the law cos it was the right thing to do. Im not in the UK - I stook to the rules here.

  48. ITS NOT "one guy wiht a gun" Every single person in America has blood on their hands. There comes a point where inaction is in its self ACTION. You fail to stop a tragedy that is predictable - you guilty of aiding and abetting that tragedy. You watch a car roll down a hill towards a load of kids and you do nothing - you ALL HAVE BLOOD ON YOUR HANDS - national strike people

  49. Poor little Rishi must have been sitting there thinking "Why cant I do this?"
