Ah, fair point, I forgot that!

A few that I don’t think have been mentioned yet:

• Rosemary’s Baby
• Ring (Japanese original)
• Mulholland Drive
• Get Out
• The Exorcist
• The Omen

Wtf? That sounds dodgy as hell.

And a bowl of petunias.

What does that code mean/do?

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is an obvious but nonetheless relevant answer. What a ride.

Also Infinite Jest.

The Scotland away shirt from 1992 can confirm:

You can only swipe down to minimize a video if it’s the first video in a playlist (or not part of a playlist at all).

That seems really daft. Things like swipe gestures work on muscle memory - but if you have yo also consciously remember whether what you’re watching is in a playlist or not, it’s much less intuitive.

I like swipe down to minimise and use it a lot. This feels like it could be a real pain.

Aloy from the Horizon games was my first thought.

And if they can, will they?

6’6" checking in. Not often I see someone taller than me :-)

What about the apostles?

Do your own research.

The green streak at about 8 o’clock? Or the striped segment at about 5 o’clock?

Dick Cheney - January 1941 (83 years)
Liz Cheney - July 1966 (58 years)

Oh, sorry, yes! I’m too used to using the shortened version :-)

That’s true, but it doesn’t negate the point you are replying to.

They aren’t though, are they? They may not do everything the way you want (although your bringing party affiliation into makes your motives seem pretty transparent) but Edinburgh the City generally runs very well - services are provided, children learn, roads are mended, grass is cut, buses run, traffic is managed, etc, etc.

Is it perfect? Of course not. Is it “incompetent”? Not by any stretch of the imagination.

I’m only amazed you resisted lobbing in a “Clowncil” reference.

As for Gorgie Farm it’s a shame it’s not open, but unless you’ve been privvy to the detailed ins and outs of the process, I’d suggest you are, at best, operating from a position of limited knowledge.

Very likely it’s down to money, and councils are generally skint - not least because of the long freeze (imposed by Holyrood) on their ability to increase tax revenue.

It has been quite obvious they have been incompetent for some time.

Has it?

it highlights just how inept Edinburgh City Council is.

Does it? The people who were going to run it have decided to hand the keys back. Is that really the council’s fault?
