Dunno where op was but in the UK at least it wasn't possible for the longest time to get the Dreamcast to use a flat rate dial up because Sega did a deal with British Telecom. This made multiplayer pricey af... I know this because my dad was not amused at the ยฃ230 phone bill I racked up in the first month of PSO ๐Ÿ˜…

Oh it's worse than that. It was never even legally binding, it was just a finger-in-the air - only after the fact was it treated like the cast iron democratic will of the people while over in the real world the Electoral Commission would've actually declared the whole thing void if it was a legally binding referendum because of illegal overspend by the grifters pushing it in the first place.

The whole thing is maddening to think about, honestly

I have just gotten into baldurs gate 3 and holy shit it has consumed my soul.

For all the invasive problems this feature causes, what the fuck does it actually do? The ability to ask an ai what website you were on last Thursday? Who needs this garbage

 

Not sure if this should go in general UK sub or politics... on balance, I think this is clearly a very political video.

I would've absolutely paid more attention in maths if the learning material was this utterly contemptuous of "ordinary mathematicians" haha

Yeah it's just brutal even for the time and pretty agonising to watch. I don't know how it even got past the concept stages tbh.
