  1. This was the best season of Slow Horses and it's Apple's best show by far imo. Watched Wolfs and probably the most surprising thing about it was that Clooney and Pitt didn't fuck at the end. It's one of those cute little romance films where the 2 main characters pretend to not like each other. The latest season of Acapulco is another show that's really bad. The only other two shows in my queue right now are S2 of Tehran and Blitz. Other shows I will check out are Criminal Record, Bad Monkey, Afterparty, Presumed Innocent.

    New Music 2024

    Lucinda Williams Sings the Beatles Abbey Road is pretty damn good. The guitars are on fire and the contrast of her voice with the pop tunes is great. Most songs connect but not all. "I'm Looking Through You," "Rain" "While My Guitar Gently Weeps," and "With a Little Help From My Friends" are among the standouts. The production is outstanding and she manages to bring a wonderful freshness to songs we've all heard a million times.

    RIP Toni Price

    What a shame. She was great, should've been a big star.

    When we found a long-term furnished rental we used Foxtons. They have short-term, as well. I'm guessing you already know this but "Let" or "Lettings" are the words you'll want to use.
  5. Would've mattered because Golden caught it but it appears all PI's are not going to be called equally today.
  6. Kirby's? Could be his sister Kendall or Karl, his brother.
  7. Have you searched the directory of starter packs by keyword? I posted some sports starter packs in the thread about twitter PSA. What type of business? Here's business law and related scholars https://bsky.app/starter-pack/katejackson.bsky.social/3larpckyvfn2v Here's business and economic news https://bsky.app/starter-pack/katejackson.bsky.social/3larpckyvfn2v Here's some business reporters and commentators https://bsky.app/starter-pack/thebegonis.bsky.social/3lathikruew23 investing https://bsky.app/starter-pack/cullenroche.bsky.social/3lbgrvn57r424 Reuters business reporters https://bsky.app/starter-pack/reuters.com/3lburgxdorn2i The Economist's data team https://bsky.app/starter-pack/reuters.com/3lburgxdorn2i The Economist's journalists https://bsky.app/starter-pack/economist.com/3lba54f2oba26 Financial TImes journalists https://bsky.app/starter-pack/financialtimes.com/3lcd5d7lzus2n
  8. Edmunds did a real world test of EV range. Here's the top 20 performers. One Tesla model in the top 20. https://www.edmunds.com/car-news/electric-car-range-and-consumption-epa-vs-edmunds.html
  9. Not to mention having to figure out whose xitter account they're referencing can be a pain in the ass.
  10. This is perhaps the single most annoying thing about reddit. Everyone has an opinion and you're not going to block them just for a shitty opinion in one thread. I mostly browse the local sub for local news but I've noticed a lot of threads in the bigger subs seem like questions to generate training for AI, or users with fake or reposting old posts trying to get rep. Nothing like that on bluesky. It's rather peaceful and straightforward imo. The block button on bluesky, along with using the blocklists, is a beautiful thing.
  11. Conclusion: the number to follow is between 100 and 1000 depending on what you're looking for and who you're following.
  12. doesn't seem like that at all but you do you
