Well okay yes, also a totally fair interpretation, but still very much in contrast to "people I don't like" at the end of the day

Don't get me wrong, I'm totally here for it,

See, to the informed, liberal means someone who follows the liberal capitalist school of thought, typically associated with the Austrian school.

To absolute fucking morons, it means "people I have been told I don't like"

This is why constructive conversation is tough

We really need someone other than Qualcomm & Apple to come up with lossless Bluetooth audio codecs.

TBF the whole Bluetooth audio situation is a complete mess

Trakt.tv has limited lists to maximum 2 of 100 items and watchlist to 100 items unless you pay $60/year - do you have any alternative to recommend? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

People don't find their VIP features value for money because it's vastly overpriced for what it is

$60 almost feels a bit steep if it was for a lifetime subscription of trakt

End of an era as Radio City tower hosts final live broadcast on Christmas Eve | Liverpool (www.theguardian.com)
 

It is known across Liverpool as the Radio City tower but that moniker may not be around much longer as the structure hosts its final live broadcast on Christmas Eve.

Microphone cables are being bundled up and heaving contacts books packed into boxes, leaving empty what is arguably the most famous building of the city’s skyline – St Johns Beacon, to use its proper name.

Built in 1969, originally as a luxury revolving restaurant that was one visited by Queen Elizabeth II, the tower was listed Grade II in 2020, with Historic England describing it as “embodying the technological bravura and spirit of the space age”.

Uefa warns England could be banned from Euro 2028 over regulator concerns - BBC Sport (www.bbc.co.uk)
 

Uefa has warned ministers that England could be excluded from the European Championship it is co-hosting in 2028 over "concerns" that a planned independent football regulator could lead to "government interference" in the sport.

A bill to establish a body to oversee the top five tiers of the men's game in England was reintroduced in July.

The UK government has said the football watchdog will "protect clubs" by "ensuring their financial sustainability".

But in a letter sent to Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy and seen by BBC Sport, Uefa general secretary Theodore Theodoridis wrote: "We do have concerns remaining... as normally football regulation should be managed by the national federation.

Why aren't there adult only flights? (lemmy.world)

Honestly, I will never wrap my head around how people can happily bring infants on any flight where you can expect people to try and sleep, it's incredibly lucky if they don't spend some of it screaming their heads off—I would be mortified if my choices were preventing hundreds of people from sleeping. But I'm not going to rant too hard about that.

Why on earth hasn't any airline started marketing adult-only flights?

It seems like a complete no brainer to me, I would choose it every time and pay extra for it.

Disclaimer: I may or may not be on a 36h day with only an hour of sleep right now
