We enjoyed this show and loved the second series. The third one’s a little naff though.

It can never be too big, but it’s a problem if it’s a big city with nothing to do (Cyberpunk).

I don’t get all this work from home shit. I much prefer being in the office.

I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic but no that’s not ironic.

Didn’t we already do this?

I want to get Luigi’s Mansion as I remember really enjoying the first one. It’s just so expensive though.

Personally I think AI generated content could be great when it’s used to create content that otherwise wouldn’t be present. Like when you have a game where all the buildings are just static models with all the doors closed and the curtains shut, imagine resolving all that with buildings you could go in. Basically I want Cyberpunk where all the lights and movement actually mean something.

Honestly, you might have been better choosing Windows. I use all three for work and MacOS is more like an iPad nowadays.

There was a low budget indie film I found in Amazon Prime called There Are Monsters that I really enjoyed.

Helping is one thing, paying for everything is something else. I don’t want my kid lying awake at night worrying about bills but I want her making decisions about how she’s spending her money and having to go without things.

My kid will get a little financial support until she’s out of studies and then I’ll mostly be a safety net. I learnt far more about money when I didn’t have much, and I also learnt empathy for those who don’t have anyone to help.

She’ll definitely be getting a job when she can and if she’s at home she’ll be paying rent, but I’ll just put that aside to help her with a mortgage. I’ll probably buy her first car but it’ll be something cheap. She’ll get money towards a house deposit.

I’ll be figuring it out as it comes but she doesn’t need to be living comfortably all her life. I’d help her with money towards a business if it seemed like a good idea but I’m not bankrolling her. Learning to be responsible with money is important and they can’t learn that in a book.

I wonder if those officers knew it was illegal before they took up the job?

Still popular in a lot of poorer places. If you have no infrastructure then it’s often the most suitable means of keeping warm at night, especially since you don’t really need to worry about storage or anything.

I honestly don’t mind as long as it’s down with permission. At least Microsoft are trying to do something interesting, computers are so boring nowadays. You could take any of the operating systems and wind them back five years and I probably wouldn’t notice.

“mostly because the English have been trying to erase Irish culture for centuries”

What on earth are you on about? Do you think anyone in England is waking up thinking about ways to suppress Irish culture? You do realise that England and Ireland are separate countries now?

Isn’t part of the problem that the EV market basically belongs to China right now. If they said you could only buy EVs then they’d be saying you can’t buy cars made in the EU. my understanding is that even EVs made by EU manufacturers have all the important stuff made in China.

The last season was pretty naff, it never really picked back up after the first one. In the first season it was a few small town people just trying to find a missing boy, now they’re trying to save the world or some shit. These shows always feel that they have to increase the stakes and everything else just suffers.

I think they just date from the circles they hang out in. I don’t think rich people hang out with poor people in general, I guess they don’t have much in common given that they have different problems. Rich people go to rich people schools, rich people gyms, etc.

Printers are sold at a loss. If you want cheap toner you’d end up paying more for the printer. If you want to be ethical you probably need a second hand one.

The flooding a network thing really isn’t an issue, they’ll only flood for the first packet just to find the way and then it stops. Fire up Wireshark on a different machine and transfer a file between two other machines, you won’t see anything. I don’t know too much about WiFi but it probably does the same, it’s just a bridge to the same network.

Wired is probably better because machines can estimate your location from the SSID and they can leak the password giving access to the network.
