I have a few prescription medications that are called different things in the US. I thought it was fairly common knowledge with paracetamol, though. Tylenol being one of the common brands names.
The demoscene was brilliant. People shared them sneakernet-style like games back then too, which speaks volumes for how good demos were. Very fond memories.
Lego will always be cool to me. Without wanting to sound like a cliché, the only limit was your imagination when I was a child, before home computing. Forever grateful for those years.
I almost had an Atari, but ended up with the Amiga back in '88, which I am forever grateful for. I'm not sure that I would say the Atari wasn't ground-breaking, though. Think back to the '90s and you can see how much of…
No, it's a 128. The obvious giveaway being the audio.
But that name. Ugh.
As an '80s kid, swedes/turnips were the norm in my hometown in the UK.
I hadn't heard of privacy.com cards, but that thought had crossed my mind. What is to stop organisations simply banning privacy.com cards?
It would be quite amusing if the final verdict was, amongst other things, "Never mind"
Many? You sure about that? Also, "opinions about sexuality are being presented as fact in contrary to the principles they want to raise their child with". How do you think things like that help? We want a tolerant and…
I take it you saw the photos then?

I can remember when they were the hot thing in fast fashion, but they were pretty much crushed due to the horrendously bad PR. Grim company.
Almost everything is cyclical in fashion. There was a period not long ago when jeans became unfashionable in the UK because they were associated with middle-age dads. People looked towards chinos (not the type you're…
If you live in London, you can/could go into the store, buy the trousers (34" length?) and have them tailored within the day (can't remember if there is a charge for it). If you're outside of London (not sure if the…
I don't mind brands/logos but it's a double-edged sword. It's hard to like or want to wear something that's perceived to be in decline if there are logos/branding all over it. Gap, Superdry, Hollister all seem a bit…
Not in the UK - Old Navy is unknown here, Banana Republic pretty much the same (you can buy it online). H&M, Uniqlo, and Zara have certainly affected Gap's standing in the market.
Old Navy doesn't exist in the UK, though. Primark is something else entirely - it beats everyone on price, but attracts a different shopper.
I wondered if they were just looking at how Uniqlo operate. Here in the UK, Uniqlo only have stores in London. You can find one or two other cities - Oxford, Manchester, but that's it. For anywhere else you have to shop…
For me that depends on the position in the market. I doubt some of the major clothes designers feel quite the same way.
Not in the UK it doesn't. Old Navy is unknown here.
I find the rapid store expansion a problem and wouldn't be surprised if they repeat the same mistake, although they haven't plastered their clothes with Zara logos. Uniqlo is the only store that hasn't yet repeated this…
Agreed, although they're not at the same price point in the market and haven't run into problems yet, at least not here in the UK. There was a period in time where Gap rapidly expanded and had stores almost everywhere.…
Gap's quality is higher than H&M, IMHO. Zara is another of Gap's rivals that seems to be expanding in the UK highstreet, although I rarely find anything worth purchasing.
Gap's problems for me: 1) Sticking Gap on everything. That kind-of logo/advertisement in huge lettering is great on the way up, but not on the way down. Superdry take note. You could not pay me to wear either. 2)…
