9 months agoI got fucking chills the first time I realised who he was. Then his total change of demeanour, then when he finally said his name. Ooh. 2007. What a time to be alive.

I really liked ’the Fam’. It was a nice change of dynamic from previous (usually) single companions. And different from the Amy and Rory relationship too - grandfather/grandson and Ryan not being romantically involved with Yaz just felt different.
Plus they were all good fun and bounced well off The Doctor in their different ways.
And Jodie Whitaker was a great Doctor too. While I won’t try and defend every idea in every episode, we needed the change of pace from a decade of Moffat and Segun Akinola’s music was also excellent.
Thirteen gave me what I wanted out of a Doctor when she left - the desire for just a bit more time with her.
My favourite Doctor is:
-
Whoever is currently playing The Doctor
-
Paul McGann (the film wasn’t great but he was, and I wish we’d seen more of him than one mini episode and a quick cameo…)
-
Fond memories of GoldenEye on the N64 where everybody’s head was a photo wrapped around a D20…

12·9 months agoFugu. I’m far too much of a coward to try it normally.
How do we stop Iran killing their own citizens? I know, we kill them first! I are very smart!
9·9 months agoI’d assume they were still called “Woody” and “Buzz”…
Nah, cows can’t move that fast.
They can’t fly either…
41·10 months agoHah. To swap eSIM on O2 in the UK, you have to order a physical pack that gets posted to you with the QR code in. There is no way to get the code to appear on a screen you can scan with your camera, or in an app on the phone you can transfer to the phone’s eSIM manager. It’s so dumb.
24·10 months agoYes. The answer to this isn’t to restrict what the NSA can do, the answer is to stop people’s privacy being a legally tradable commodity.
1·10 months agoHoly shit, Troy Baker is doing an incredible Harrison Ford impression…
I’m dubious on the first person stuff, especially since they seem to have put a lot of work into recreating Ford’s likeness. But I was dubious about Cyberpunk too, and that turned out OK, so what do I know?
Cautiously optimistic.
1·11 months agoShould copyright for works that old be expired? Yes!
In the actual world we live in, was this guy ever going to avoid being sued so hard that his grandchildren will be embarrassed for him? No!
You’ve got to admire the lemming-like devotion to the legal cliff he threw himself off though. Writing a sequel to not only a copyright work, but one that is still in the cultural zeitgeist thanks to a 20-year old wildly successful series of films? Ballsy. Subsequently suing one of the largest companies in the world and the estate that produced the original works as infringing his copyright?
Chutzpa, I believe the term is.
0·11 months agoWhile true, the Tory party that won the last election looks a bit different to the gobshites that are in government now.
Don’t get me wrong, I thought the last lot were assholes as well, but while technically legal, swapping out basically all of the government several times seems like a bit of a bait and switch.
There were literally decades of violence and terrorism over that, so clearly someone cares.
That being said, But then I’m Welsh and live in England, I do not have a horse in this race. If the people in NI want to unify with Ireland and regain all their EU citizenship benefits as well as removing the whole “Northern Ireland border issue”, then I wouldn’t blame them at all.
