Big fan of Star Blazers. I did eventually watch that years later, but my first anime exposure was via a VHS bought from a charity shop of a series called ThunderSub.

Very similar to Star Blazers, don't know if they were related in any way.

Oh I get it. The top picture is a bike. 🚲 The bottom picture is the same bike after being hit by a 6ft tall SUV while trying to cross that intersection.

Great, we should see many more companies accepting back everything they sell as recycling. It should be the norm.

Exactly, I was the same. This is the News that Twitter was good for, the live events.

I'd always check Twitter for the initial on the scene explanation of what was happening from local people. In my case it was a massive warehouse fire that I could see the smoke in the distance. Obviously there was nothing about it on the traditional news sites, but loads of stuff from local people on Twitter immediately.

Then afterwards you'd just read the proper News outlets for the full official details after the fact.

This really grinds my gears!

One of the things they do that really drives me nuts is when they dig up a junction with road markings, when they tarmac over the bit they dug up they then repaint the white lines, but ONLY on the tiny strip they dug up, leaving the rest of the old faded lines with just one patch of bright white paint on it. Looks ridiculous. Seriously they can't repaint the entire line!?

Great, Mastodon is really starting to be able to replace much more of Twitter now. The only thing i miss from Twitter was the local accounts I followed for info, will be a while before they all abandon and move over, but hopefully in the end.

This is great. It's so good to have this game maintained by the community. I played this game so much as a kid and have returned to it many times since. I think I'm due another go! 😈

Nice to see something impressive done with a ping pong ball on the internet that isn't NSFW.

That machine is impressive though. If it's a preprogrammed sequence that's great, but if it's got sensors to monitor and adapt on the fly its even more impressive.

It makes sense. It may suprise a lot of people on here but their biggest market is not the people who demand 4k 60FPS in all games and will riot if they don't get it. Their main market is kids playing FIFA and Minecraft and other casual gamers who just enjoy fun games at a reasonable budget. For that they really got it right with the Series S.

I have no idea what I'm doing.

The quality of Lego helps, you shouldn't ever really need to be throwing them away. The problem I do have with them is the excessive use of single use plastic in their packaging. So many plastic bags in all their sets. I'm sure they said they were sorting that out but I'm still getting packages full of plastic bags! It can't be that difficult to sort that out and repalce those with some cardboard boxes or paper bags!

Seems like the perfect fit. Maguire would be good at West Ham. They have loadsa money and European football next season. He must be tempted, hopefully. It's a win-win if they bid and he goes there. I think if West Ham bid £35m - £40m then we should definitely go for it.
