Not worth it. The PS5 games catalogue is piss poor compared to when the PS4 Pro released.

The music to this game is ingrained into my head
- Comment on Anon checks out mobile gaming 3 months ago:
It was in the early days of the Apple App Store. Games were 79p to buy. No in-app purchases and were generally good indie titles. “Helsing’s Fire” comes to mind. Miss that game!
- Comment on Anon checks out mobile gaming 3 months ago:
Mobile gaming is awful these days. The vast majority are just cash grabs.
That said I look forward to Balatro being released
- Comment on Halo on Paramount+ has been canceled after only two seasons 3 months ago:
Fallout wasn’t too bad imo. A bit shit in places but they kept close to the game which certainly peases the gamers.

3D World is one of my favourites. Really chilled game. Apart from Champions Road. Fuck that level!

Thanks! I didn’t know about this. I never use audiobooks. Just changed my family plan. £2 is £2!
- Comment on Helldivers 2 now delisted in 177 countries 6 months ago:
Same old shit with everything. A company makes a move that users don’t like. The company just ignores all the flak they are getting online. The uproar calms down and then things continue.
We’re seeing this more and more. Windows with ads, Amazon adding ads to their prime account holders. Spotify moving lyrics to their premium subscription. The past couple of years are shit and companies continue to do whatever the fuck they want.

Does that include cheap Bluetooth devices that need a password and use 0000?

- Comment on Not buying a shaver from Philips again.. 7 months ago:
I didn’t get a DE razor until I was in my late 30’s. Gutted that it took me so long. I never really liked electric shavers so used your average Gillette razor and suffered from irritation up until I switched. DE razors are cheaper (in the long run) and easily a better shave. Not to mention no irritation.
I’d say DE Razors are one of my life pro tips. It’s a shame the large majority of nations use the traditional safety razor but then marketing and advertising has worked it’s magic.

I really like it, much prefer this layout over the default one.
One question though, how do I respond/reply to the original post? I’ve had to go back to the old UI as I don’t see a Reply button or comment box. I can see a Reply link on other people’s comments, but not on to reply to the main thread.
- Comment on Stardew Valley 1.6 is out now - player count on Steam explodes 8 months ago:
The dev is legendary. It boggles my mind how someone can be so talented in art, programming, music, story lines etc. Stunning.
Stardew Valley is one of a kind. I doubt we will ever see a game made this well, by a single developer and looked after for this amount of time.
- Comment on Email admin 8 months ago:
I purchased a new domain just for creating aliases with SimpleLogin. I have over 300 email aliases now. If any start spamming I simply delete the alias. Also if I get unrelated emails I know exactly which website leaked or sold my email address.

I’m from the UK and you sound like an average person talking on Twitch.
- Comment on This shouldn’t be normalised 8 months ago:
I’m sure it will come. The first time I drank from one of these I was confused and thought my cap had a manufacturing defect so pulled it off.
- Comment on This console generation seems skippable 10 months ago:
I got the PS4 Pro having not bothered upgrading from a PS3. At this point there was so many good games to play. I was so impressed I got the PS5 a year after launch. I’m really disappointed as the games have lackluster compared to my time on the PS4.
Honestly the only console that I see is worth having is the Switch. Other than that I play on the PC and now Steam Deck.
- Comment on That escalated quickly 😬 10 months ago:
Duolingo is one hell of a spammy application. I uninstalled it just because it was so noisy.

I hate reading the Americans now typing “y’all”.

We’re in our 40’s, so not old enough for typewriters. I do remember my dad had one at his workplace though!

Like my wife who uses Caps Lock to create capital letters. I’ve told her to use shift but she’s too far gone.

- Comment on UK workers ‘should get day off’ if workplace is hotter than 30C 11 months ago:
Indeed. A shirt and trousers is absolutely lovely attire for sitting in a room that’s 30°C. No thanks.
- Comment on This toilet paper at my work 11 months ago:
As a kid, I remember when the schools used to have that paper that literally was paper and on one side being shiny. Shit used to literally smear on the shiny side. I don’t think it actually exists anymore.
