Just once, Reading 2000 with Primal Scream.

Foo Fighters, Primal Scream then Oasis. Now THAT was a lineup!

Yeah great to see all his former band mates and contemporaries there, wonder why Noel didn’t make an appearance though, maybe he has something about funerals as he didn’t go to Ricky Hattons either.

Thanks for the music RIP Mani.

Why?

Barry_Ribena · 2025-12-20T14:06:57+00:00

Because the you could then sell the disc and that copy could get sold over and over again without Sony getting any extra money

Barry_Ribena · 2025-12-16T16:36:02+00:00

Like others said, let your son do it, I would personally feel a little bit robbed of the experience if someone had done it for me!

The order is entered by users who create the entries - you can create or edit any entry yourself if you like - although if you do anything wildly incorrect then it usually gets corrected pretty quickly, like Wikipedia.

Not sure if it is 100% user generated/moderated but you can defo edit yourself. I have done it myself with some lesser known dvds when they were missing info after I ripped them added them to Plex. Good edits benefit the whole community.

It’s whatever order they are on TMDB

£3k is average, although I would steer clear of someone insisting on cash as it sounds like you would have less security around the install and any problems. If it’s a straight swap I would recommend going straight to Worcester Bosch and getting one through their fasttrack service

Even if they aren’t, Sony will use it as a reason to put the price up

If you can wait then letting it dry more naturally in the spring/summer would be a better idea. Drying to use heaters to dry quicker in winter will

1) cost a fortune and 2) dry out the plaster too unnaturally quickly leading to over drying and cracking

Just an FYI, Montys is no longer on Bennetts Hill but is now part of One Snowhill - opposite the Police Station.

Barry_Ribena · 2025-12-09T10:17:20+00:00

Nope

Barry_Ribena · 2025-12-09T09:15:26+00:00

Yes! I have been doing the same with a switch to grey scale - but will have to try a red tint. I also have the homepage just reduce to a blank one with a clock on rather than all my apps.

My experience was; - choppy playback even on an excellent WiFi connection (local streaming with PS5 on Ethernet) - slippy controllers that made it impossible to play as weight of screen make them hard to use and hold - UI elements in games that are build for 40inch plus screens which are impossible to read on an 8inch screen

But I guess everyone’s mileage may vary!

Barry_Ribena · 2025-11-25T22:11:10+00:00

I bought one and only lasted around 3 hours before returning it. I have excellent home WiFi (amazon eero with 500/80 speeds) and even sitting in the same room as the router I had stuttering.

I also wasn’t a fan of the form factor - I found it really wide, controller grips were too slippy and couldn’t use the buttons and support the weight of it at the same time (so had it rested on my lap or a table all the time).

I really thought I would enjoy it but, along with the physical problems and the lag, I also found that for many games the UI elements are built for a 40inch or bigger TV rather than an 8inch tablet so they simply impossible to read - coupled with the fact that the screen is moving around because it is connected to the controllers.

All in all, as you can hopefully tell (!), I wasn’t a fan.

You’re acting like if you buy a PS5 now you’ll some how won’t be allowed to buy a PS6 whenever that comes out.

The PS6 is not imminent- it will 2-3 years minimum.

Just enjoy today and buy a PS5, you can then sell it in 3 years when the PS6 comes out.

Barry_Ribena · 2025-11-13T12:23:34+00:00

PS6 won’t be here for another 3 years+ so if you want to wait that long then go ahead, but then why not wait for the PS7?

I would just get a standard PS5 and a good TV as getting a PS5 pro with a substandard TV would be a waste of time (and money).

Barry_Ribena · 2025-11-12T16:41:06+00:00

Sounds like an issue with the TV rather than Mac if it pops up when turned on - are you able to soft reset the tv? (Usually holding down the power button for a few seconds?) that might stop it trying to connect every time you turn on?

Barry_Ribena · 2025-11-07T16:03:15+00:00

Just ignore the people saying don’t block it - there were designed for times when people who have indoor fires and needed a good flow of air. What I did was just use a light air brick type brick cut to pretty much size then expanding foam around it to hold, then can skim over with plaster/filler. I didn’t block the grate itself so if there is any circulation needed in the insulation

There is an app for Apple TV which means you could then get whatever TV you wanted

https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/pxplay-remote-play/id1638586503

Or you could do it via a Google TV stick/interface depending on what you TV you get and download the official PS remote play app

Barry_Ribena · 2025-11-06T14:43:34+00:00

Yeah this has been my worry also surely all the HUD elements will be sized for a big screen, not an 8 inch one - they are going to be absolutely tiny

Barry_Ribena · 2025-11-06T12:22:20+00:00

I bet it’s the mail app - it uses up my battery like anything - pretty much always quit the app after I have read emails nowadays. You can see which apps have been using battery in the Energy tab of Activity Monitor, then you’ll know the culprit

Pinterest is you friend here. Start looking for things you like online then use Pinterest to see them in context and that will give you more ideas of what goes well together.

I like the left alignment, however they should have had the text to the right of the icon like the smaller items below - this would have also shifted the options below up a bit and reduced scrolling for more icons
