Their Fire TV stick one was decent before but has become meh

Asking the important questions.

In the UK it was where they showed Mr Robot and a few other things on streaming services and channels not usually available here. It introduced me to Halt and Catch Fire and other good stuff. YMMV depending on location of course.

I just bought a zenfone 10

My Samsung fridge has been fantastic over the past 10 years but for one thing. The control panel is borked so I can't actually change any settings lol. But as it stands, doing a solid job.

It helps to just go to Faron tower, glide across to the lizalfos and take em out. Lots of durian trees there, pick em up and make a good few hearty meals. All the extra hearts means you'll need to cook less.

No idea how I found this out, probably just from being on the BotW subreddit, but the specific timings are 23:30 - 00:00. This guarantees a crit effect from your meals (more duration, more hearts etc).

In my head it was informed in a loading screen or by an NPC but I can't find anything online that confirms this, so guess I just came across a thread once!

I think 5 x Hearty Durians is 20 temporary hearts normally but under a blood moon I got 24 temporary hearts in one recipie.

Morrowind would just soft reboot the Xbox during load screens. I think Blood Moons are a smarter move overall as it adds to the fun and gamer knowledge that enemies have respawned etc, but the Morrowind implementation was such that the player wouldn't notice the background soft reboot, because the screen retained a static loading screen during the process.

Also Skyrim (PS3 at least), just added the info tracking the game state to the save file which made it incredibly large after many hours of playing so some found it unplayable.

That said there's evidence that most night time blood moons are scripted (i.e. for gameplay), and anything you see during the day is a "panic" one, added later in the coding timeline, for the memory free up purpose. Blood moons weren't originally planned for that (or they were maybe but timing wasn't implemented?), but they work well for it.

I have it but revanced is a much better experience overall. I also pay for Premium so I get downloads but if youtube included swipe controls for brightness and volume I wouldn't need revanced. Though the skip segment stuff is good.

Interesting, I haven't rewatched Altered Carbon. How does it hold up? I had read the book before the show came out so I had that reference point in my head.

Nah it's not cheating, cos there's a movie too. But yes, I have seen Firefly a fair few times (and Serenity), and once half way through with the commentary. Also I have watched The Orville more times than they have seasons.

I too have enjoyed this suffering a few times now.

I've watched The IT Crowd so many times over the years that I ended up in one of the episodes :o

I've stopped rewatching of late but have seen many times through the years.

SG-1 wasn't on any streaming services I have in the UK for ages but just noticed off the back of this that it's back on Prime. I haven't watched it for SO many years. Great show.

Halt and Catch Fire I've seen 2-3 times and I love it.

In music: GZA and Raekwon probably. Bloodywood and Lake Malice are more recent bands but they're still on their rise and not as well known as the Wu-Tang overall.

In comedy: Russell Peters, more recently Nimesh Patel.

General: Gary Vaynerchuck

It really did Dude.

Yeah it's one I'm struggling to replace, but because I use it so little I'm not as fussed just yet. Will keep it until it doesn't pass MOT anymore, or something else makes more sense.

I'm pretty tall. I move a lot of family members around on rare occasions. I go for week-long trips out of town in my car. I barely drive it in town (usually evenings and weekends and not even every evening or weekend). My car isn't quite that behemoth but it is large enough for what I need. I have helped with over 4 home moves in that car and even used it to transport a fridge to a civic waste site.

It does the job fine. I've never felt the need to get a pickup truck. Some people probably have genuine use cases. The majority probably don't. Those things are wild.

Honestly, perfect gummy fodder. Need to watch it again in different circumstances.
