I stuck with 7 for an extremely long time under similar reasoning. Like I missed win 8 completely and only got 10 in maybe 2018. And only because I needed a version of directX for work that was unsupported on 7.
I only upgraded to 10 in early 2021, and only because I had reached a point where I didn't see another option. My next upgrade is increasingly likely to be something Linux. Every new bit of info about Win 11 just makes me want it less.
This being one of my absolute favorite military fiction novels, I very much fear Hollywood screwing it up. At the same time, I'd love to see a miniseries, maybe directed by Ridley Scott.
Is this the one where they used footage of New York instead of London?
Yep. From the article:
Issued by Conservative Central Office (CCHQ), it has already been edited and re-uploaded after viewers spotted that one of the dystopian-looking scenes it depicted was of the New York subway rather than the London Tube.
There is crossover potential with Deep Blue Sea.
