I'm thinking we get the whole Starfield bit first, then they'll have a bit on Forza (I think these are a given...) I think we'll also get a bit of an announcement related to Fable. Might be a little bit of a secondary teaser for TES:VI too

Same here. I think he just needs a bit of consistency and he'll come good.

I never tried Redfall after seeing it get slated everywhere...

I'll be installing Starfield as soon as the pre-load is up though. I've already got XGPU until 2025 so it's a no brainer. I won't even pretend to hide the hype I have for Starfield!

I'm hoping that doesn't happen! I learned in an A3, so my car is a bit smaller which I think helps.

I've bought a little VW Polo!

Yeah sometimes tempering your expectations is the way to go!

[–] jack 3 points 2 years ago

100% worth it! I wish I'd done it sooner now

I hate when that happens.

I think any and all subreddits should go this way.

Reddit is only popular because of the users. We create the content. Yes, a lot of posts on the website are external links but all discussions are generated and concluded by us, the users.

Shutting subs down for 1-2 days and going back to normal is not going to have much of an impact. It's akin to a server blip. If subs shut down indefinitely then reddit has a real problem. 'Normal' users will start to take notice, whereas they currently might not be paying much attention. These subs should go the other route. Shut down and promote alternatives (such as lemmy!) to divert traffic away from reddit.

Pigboy Spez talked about not being profitable. No shit, you dick. This is how you become even less profitable, by pissing off the entire user base.

I've just recently passed my driving test and bought a car, so plenty of little trips around the Peak District & Yorkshire Dales I think this summer! Might try and venture up to the Lakes too.

Having a car feels so strange, considering I'm a little late to driving - so much freedom!

I'm a hand luggage only kinda guy. Easy on, easy off, no faff with the conveyor at the end.

I'm a pretty good flyer anyway, so I just make sure I'm wearing something comfy, my AirPods are charged and I've got something I want to listen to on my phone. Depending on the length of your flight, I think it's always worth having a bottle of water to bring on from the airport, or buying one on board. It can get dry in the sky!

I have debated buying an iPad recently, not for flying/travel but just general usage - however, I think an iPad would be a great addition on a longer flight. Pop a movie on!

Good. I think this is a dangerous time, though.

I can see him & other tearaway Tories setting up an even worse party and trying to bring over there diehards. Him and his cronies have tasted blood (read: stealing from and fucking the public) and in my opinion, that isn't something they are going to want to give up completely.

General election can't come soon enough.
