I can't remember the last time I saw one of these. These used to be as ubiquitous as the digestive and rich tea (which incidentally, the finger version seems to have fallen out of fashion too, and they were much better than the round version).

It looks like if you want this biscuit now, you have to search it out. Why did they stop being sold in supermarkets?

Edit: there is one mention of them on Wikipedia about being a variant of Rich Tea. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rich_tea

My second microSD card has corrupted :( I have a feeling I was sold a fake.

I've watched enough Atomic Shrimp to know external storage is a minefield. Argos is an authorised sandisk seller, but so is Amazon and I know they get counterfeits mixed in due to 3rd party sellers. Afaik Argos would only sell their own stock if I buy a card from their stores, right?

Hello one and all! I'm null, also known as null, null or null.

I'm new to Lemmy.wtf, so I hope I enjoy my time here in the fedeverse ::: spoiler spoiler (I forgot how fredeverse is spelt even though I use the damn word.) :::

I always assumed the term is used specifically to differentiate it from "working days", but talking to my bank today they claimed that "calendar days" doesn't include weekends and bank holidays.

Is there still music and singing at school assemblies?

As a kid I went to a CoE primary school and they used to play classical music as we walked into assembly and we used to sing hymns (a lot of which early on were more like groovy nursery rhymes). Regardless of the religious content of the lyrics, looking back I think that it was actually very cool to have uncritical communal listening and singing.

Is that still a thing?

adding: a better friending system more customization options more games

and to the guys who think my last post was promotional (fick dich) i only asked for feedback and u always have an option click the link or leave it alone...it"s not like i held ur family at gunpoint and told you to click the link🤣🫵

anyway thx guys

hey, i’ve been working on a small project for a bit called the hideout.

it came from something i noticed using discord — it’s great for big communities but sometimes it’s kinda annoying to just quickly start a game with people. usually you need bots, setup, someone explaining the rules, etc.

so the hideout is basically just rooms where people can join and play right away.

right now there’s:

• mafia
• spyfall
• wordle

people have been using it for a few different things:

• quick games with random players
• small study rooms where people just hang out while working
• friend groups that want a place to chat and play something together

recently two random people ended up playing and talking in a room for almost 2 hours which was pretty cool to see.

we just passed 100 users and i’m trying to grow it a bit more.

if you want to check it out or give feedback:

The Hideout

Some positivity for your feed :)

Not too much though: it will still be raining.

Some comments:

1. The video has no sound because... well, arguing parents.

2. VERY baddly cropped. It's hard to record a video and be able to crop it decently when you had to record a gameplay holding the phone with your feet.

3. Yeah, I HAD to use the portable emulator. I'm VERY slow in this game on a phone emulator, so...

4. I'm not spanish, but I play games in spanish to help me learn the language.

Anybody remember these?

Figured this summer I will meet someone for real, at a demo, a get together or some other IRL event. It is now the end of summer and sadly no romantic relationship. So comrades, I am back to the comodification of my romantic life 😭

Can't help but think the BBC could have avoided a lot of controversy over the new series simply by using AI to replace Gregg Wallace with Loyd Grossman.

From what I've read is that it was on from mid July until mid August, I'm wondering if anyone has seen them with any luck?
