It’s a silicone VR face cover.

Has the site gone down, I could use it earlier but now going back to a bookmark it’s no longer there

Yeah absolutely, I’d love nothing more than to hear from old school friends. OP, do it, message them.

Wow, truly impressive, every single thing you said managed to be wrong. Have you actually read Chavs, or are we just vibing off Facebook sections now? For the record, since you seem very invested in inventing backgrounds for strangers, I’m from the UK, I’m absolutely working class, I work two jobs, and I’m just scraping by. But sure, “OP’s alt account” was a bold swing. Not a clever one, but bold.

Jones’ point, which you’d know if you’d bothered engaging with the argument instead of throwing labels around, is that the word “chav” strips people of individual dignity, turns real social hardship into a joke, and makes it easier to dismiss actual human struggles. And shockingly enough, when people are told the poor are just “lazy, irresponsible chavs,” they become much more comfortable supporting policies that punish them. Wild how language works like that.

Using the word “chav” doesn’t just target “behaviour”, it functions socially as a neat little way of sneering at an entire group of people. That’s what makes it classist in effect, even when the user insists they “didn’t mean it like that”.

But yes, clearly the only possible explanation for anyone disagreeing with you is a secret alt-account conspiracy. The much less dramatic truth is that I’m a knackered, working-class Brit with two jobs and enough life experience to see lazy class contempt when it’s dressed up as banter. I know, devastating to your narrative.

I’d argue you aren’t using it right, Chav is definitely a slur & Owen Jones would agree it’s a slur. So if you ‘used it right’ what would it be?

Say hello to Howard for me

Did a sad mod change the title?

Likely?

Lots of type 1 diabetics now use their smartphones to keep track of their numbers, they use them to work out carbohydrates, the phones also warn them of high numbers and potentially fatal lows. So yes they do need phones.

The child’s phone also sends blood glucose values to family members.

Also a teacher having a mobile phone doesn’t help one iota.

Type 1 diabetics would like a word.

They don’t care about their legacy, they don’t care about anything other than themselves.

I’ll second PopOs, I was sick & tired of windows, I’d wanted Linux for a while and tried a few, PopOs just clicked for me and I’ve not had one problem gaming (which is what I mainly do). 20 min install time and not one problem since, which is about 14 months.

Thanks for that, prices seem quite reasonable

What are you using to print stickers, I’ve been wanting to do the same but can only find quite expensive machines to do it.

I got a 3Dfx from a computer fair in Liverpool just so I could play Quake 2 CTF, it was absolutely mind blowing not even an understatement.

I’ve got the revision guides on order now, thanks.

They’re using a very funny (imo) line from The Life of Brian. They just changed the words.

You can bet your ass they would.

Alot of people with mental health issues would be wandering the streets. Some would simply die at home due to not being able to look after and feed themselves. A fair few would be going around sexually assaulting young girls/boys (not understanding they’re adults & it’s wrong) and alot would be so pissed off and confused they be trying to kick the shit out of anyone they’d see. The world wouldn’t end but it’d be a pain in the arse to navigate.

I know that’s the funniest bit for me, like she’s not finished.
