Currently reading The Flying Sorcerers by David Gerrold & Larry Niven. About 1/3 way through and not sure what to make of it so far. Very strange!

Loved that series. Must read it again soon!
And don't forget the rootkit debacle.
I'm on ps5 but the upcoming psn price hike is putting me off after reluctantly paying it the last 2 years. A steam console (I think I saw 'leaked' recently) sounds ok if it can play GOG/owned stuff too.
And they selfishly go to block the other /lower outlet - who's the real Satan?
Agreed. UK's NHS is a poor shadow of its former glory due to Tory/right cuts and desperation to privatise. And just a decade ago the (IMHO awesome) 2012 Olympic opening ceremony showing our thanks and respect... 😭
There are so many more types of biscuits.
It's casualuk after all.
Ignoring people!
Grumpy, Doc, Sneezy, I definitely forget the rest though.
In the UK you might say a sheepish hello to the person(s) next to you in the waiting room but never to the whole room, that would be... uncomfortable. It might also prompt a conversation when you just want to ignore the world until you're called.
Thanks for your helpful comments. I'll give it a go and hope I can stick with it. I did read the first 6 books before I gave up as that could have been half the length with a good editor. What is it with these 'blockbuster' adaptations that can't stick to the story or characters or pacing. The wooden acting/script doesn't help at times either. Not saying I could do better but when you're told they spent so many millions on it... Prime's LOTR suffered a similar fate and I only managed 3 episodes of that.
Has anyone watched ep 1-3 yet? How was it, considering series 1 was a bit underwhelming I thought.
Here comes the juice!
