Monsters and madness and men, oh my! The Terror is the unsung treasure of peak television With a world-class cast that will have you constantly saying β€˜hey, it’s that guy!’, this horror drama about a doomed Royal Navy expedition is a grand treatise on colonial folly

Both the book by Dan Simmons and the TV series are absolutely marvellous. Dark, mysterious and compelling.

So, my SECOND DualSense Edge controller had started to develop bubbling in the grip (the last one was replaced for the same thing). It was now out of warranty, so I decided to have a go at replacing it. Seems okay!

Please, Sony, use better adhesive.

I would say "MS can't be dumb enough to do this!" but the days of them seeming vaguely rational are gone. This would be a huge self-own and a gift to Linux, especially when you consider the low take-up of Win11 due to arbitrary H/W requirements.

Btw, Storm Troopers are very romantic. No matter how far away, they'll always miss you.

That certainly seems his (and I use this term very broadly) "logic".

Who would you choose as the new presenter of House of Games? πŸ€”

Were it not for the obvious licensing issues, my vote would go to Fozzie Bear.

Evil Dead’s Bruce Campbell reveals he has cancer: β€˜Fear not, I am a tough old son-of-a-bitch’ Actor and horror icon says he will need to withdraw from work to receive treatment, telling fans, β€˜I’m sorry if that’s a shock – it was to me too’

As if this year couldn't get any worse already.
Fight hard, Bruce, your fans love you. Knock that cancer on its arse.

The Sun: INACTION THIS DAY PM wont hit Iran back Rift grows with US Prez

Have we woken up in America? The deeply unpatriotic Daily Mail and Sun seem to now be supporting a menace of a foreign leader over our own govt and national security. They are really only loyal to their own vested interests. Which are a direct threat to our own. The routine betrayal is sickening.

Nigel Farage calls for changes to election voting rules The Reform UK leader says postal voting should be restricted to those with a 'valid reason'.

Temu Trump has a tantrum over voting, which is suddenly problematic after Gorton and Denton by-election loss. He was, however, fine with it when it delivered the catastrophe that is Brexit.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Clouds retreating far off in the horizon. I've watched sunbeams casting down upon me for a whole British day. All those moments will be lost in time like...tears in rain....time....to draw...

I'm beginning to feel genuine despair over my country's leadership. I find myself in true confusion over the decision making that is going on because it is so utterly unhinged.

Does Starmer just want to get ousted? This is a terrible decision that will make us complicit in every atrocity committed out there. I'm in disbelief.
