As a family we rarely watch “on demand” or live TV. We have a mini hooked up to our TV and sail the seas for shows we want and watch them that way. We have a Roku stick in our bedroom TV and it works great, but if I get the feeling it starts to go all Project 2025 its getting ditched, but I’m in the UK so it’ll be interesting to see how it changes here.
The current problem with mass solar plants is that they lose a good chunk of the stored energy before it is distributed to where it goes. Obviously far better than coal, but the panels need to be at the source of where they need to go, hence why roof top solar panels on buildings are great idea. Wind power is a lot more efficient, but it isn’t like we can all plonk big windmills on our roofs.
Hiya mate. Maybe this link works for you?

Thats amazing. What mp3 player is it on?
Oh wow. You’ve just unlocked a core memory. I said in another reply that my friends and i used to LAN play this at an after school club. Fun times indeed. We found it quite unreliable though so played a lot more Starcraft.
Did it really whip the llama’s ass?
Similar here. At our upper school (13 to 18) we had an after school gaming club and would play LAN GTA Starcraft and even Carmageddon.
IIRC the EU version of Wipeout had a big box edition which included a CD too.
Edit: I’ve done some digging and no it didnt. But they did release an audio CD to accompany Wipeout 2097
I can see why 1, 2 and London are so forgettable. If it wasn’t for 3, GTA wouldn’t be the behemoth it is today. You’re not wrong it was an absolute game changer not only for the series but the entire gaming industry.
Never knew there was a directors cut of this. Thats gotta be quite rare.
Just when you think the geriatric generational 1% are about to pass away and leave the world to younger, more sensible, caring people who want to help the earth heal, arseholes like these guys come along just to ensure we’re all fucked for another 50 years.
I disagree. Fusion / fission is a long term goal. Solar is cheap to produce but requires big areas and currently not very efficient. Wind power i think is probably our best immediate term bet. The UK nearly went through the whole of April this year entirely on sustainable fuels alone. Within fusion there are enough countries doing their own thing with varying levels of success that there is enough competition for it to be spread world wide. It is also easily monetized, however i envision it would be expensive for the consumer first as companies claw money back from R&D.
I remember that image too, I was speaking from my perspective that the first time I remember being made aware of it was in the 1980s. I should have been more clear, sorry.
Couldn’t agree more. Well said.
Well, we’re about 60 to 80,000 years from the next ice age. If we haven’t all died by then we could wait for that?
Or just about every developed nation on the planet needs to move to sustainable fuels now!
Nuclear fusion would be an absolute game changer. Clean, infinite energy, but it is too far away for it to make a difference let alone be able to reverse the damage that is being done. For future generations sake, as a leader of a nation, I’d be throwing all my money at it. Like, yesterday.
No shit. I remember the messages from climate scientists in the 1980s about global warming (as it used to be called), and its almost as if the whole conversation didn’t rear its head properly till mid 2010s. It isn’t something I’m an expert on, but I feel like we are beyond the point of no return. In the UK we have just this week set the record high temp, a month sooner than the usual weather starts. It isn’t that its getting hotter, it is that it is now on average far hotter earlier and longer. The absolute insane greed of the stock markets around the world putting their il gotten gains into AI data centres is just going to exacerbate the problem. As it gets hotter, people buy more air conditioning which then makes it worse! Its a vicious circle.
There is part of me that hopes that the current ruling generation will soon all pass and this age of greed will cease and the earth can breath a sigh of relief, but no. It appears there are a long list of cunts who will happily sacrifice their children’s future and everybody else’s for the next few billion dollars. The 1% simply do not give a shit at all. They literally think, “Well I wont be here when the world burns, why should I care now?”
Oh dear. Well, it was nice knowing you! Sony kills another studio.
I know this is official, but the headline reads as if Canada never helped in the World Wars.
I think Bungie were desperate for Trials of Osiris to be some sort of eSports juggernaut, but they could never ever get the balance right so tried and have seemingly failed with Marathon. Only thing that can save Bungie now is either a totally new IP with massive backing or Destiny 3 and to not make the same mistakes. They wouldn’t even need to change the engine. No one ever complained about the graphics or sound or gameplay in D1 and 2. Just do 3, with none of the bullshit of the last 12 years.
You just know its going to be an early access, live service game.
I’ve lived 43 years with never buying an EA sports title. I think I’ll manage the rest.
