Re: Apple TV +

just what I thought. I might get a new iPad this year as my old run will not run many apps today and Facetime keeps crashing because of planned obsolence (yeah nice one Cook - get them to buy more of our shit because we purposely break older models ;) ) I will get Apple + then. Watched 2 episodes of...

Re: The Internet

A bit late jumping into this one, but a few thoughts on what to expect: Fragmentation of the internet by geographic blocks - US, Europe, China in particular - I can see that happening. I think the US will get even more internet capping and China may seek to clamp down on even more internet usage. a...

Re: Star Wars: The Mandalorian

left my remarks on Good TV

Finished season 1 - thought it was excellent. Original as well as nostalgic.

9/10

Re: Good TV (aka, the TV series spamthread), the second series

The Mandalorian season 1 This went beyond my expectation and restored some of my faith back into the Star Wars cannon. In fact I would happy convince myself this is the natural sequel to The Return of the Jedi and ignore episode 7 - 9. Some of the scenes are really superb such as the AT-ST and seei...

So Microsoft announced a new Perfect Dark game last night. It's called "Perfect Dark", because imagination is dead.

or

PerfX Dark

To be played on my XBox X Series X

Ocean’s Eight

One of the worst written, unstructured calamities I’ve ever seen. I can’t think of a single positive thing to say about it.

The Internet

YouTube without an ad blocker is reaching a point of becoming unwatchable with ad break every 2 minutes. If its bad now, what the hell will the web b...
