  • Dr who The 11 hour

    Having been told about Dr who, and having seen a fee episodes prior. This one encapsulated the entire series for me and explained all of the why’s I had with previous doctors and previous companions

    To have river song start with the 10th doctor and carry on just allowed me to inhabit any episode past or present.

    Now as a whovien I will cheat and say part one and two of the pandorica was a fantastic episode.

    With honorable mentions to the Christmas special with all three doctors



  • Unless your planning on running your own infra for everything… I would argue planned obsolescence is a much greater and immediate threat.

    Research is never long term. Imagine if the last 20yrs had been invested in increased ram and battery storage. Instead we have had a 20 halt on innovation in the residential side. Why big Phone wanted to stick with 4gb phone. And then 8gb so much so the reason they stopped was because it was becoming more expensive to make 8gb chips.

    Unless you only pay cash, dont use Amazon to ship, google to research, Microsoft to compute… You are being tracked, the only difference now is the focus of the companies were for greed.










  • Not an issue when you pirate 🤔

    100% capitalism is part of the blame, why isnt there a public option for music? Promoting local artists that are in the public domain and can tour and make a living in public venues. Instead we have ticket master and other such big music. Companies, now this is applied to music but really can be applied to every sector.

    Elect local politicians who can make change for the people on the local level.




  • Hey very valid statement and salute to you.

    Personally, I believe this ultimately hurts and affects customers like yourself. Because YT is spending all of this additional effort to effect and crowdout, if looked at a very tiny percentage. Instead of investing into platform improvements for visitors and creators.

    YT should of focused on competition which is every other streaming service. If they provided shows still using network ads breaks, instead of these psycho every 4min you 2.5mins of ads unless you pay is just extortion. Plus they aren’t really sharing revenue with creators… sigh
