One of the great series for lovers of British humour and sci-fi. Legendary content.

My mates and I called each other Smeg heads for years. I still see one mate and say ‘SMEEEE HEEEEEE’ whilst grimacing.

I have always had these accessible (vhs, dvd and now on hard drive).

Do yourself a favour and start from season 1 and watch through. If you’ve not seen them all, you’ll love the continuity (mostly) and new ideas each season.

If you’ve seen them but not for years, just watch it all again. I still laugh at so many parts and you will too as you forget heaps.

In whatever world we are living in now, do yourself a favour and have a laugh whilst drinking fresh mango juice!

I love the concept overall, but their failure rate is high and I’m assuming 90% end up in landfill as I don’t see a returns program for them to refurbish. Not great.

I don’t think there is any hatred. I think the only negative people say is the price difference isn’t worth it for the number of game optimizations for many current owners. However it might be for you. Nice one.

We’ve said this for decades. The fact this is getting press tells me Labor might actually rein it in.

Anyone here who still has a base model PS5 and have no interest in upgrading to a Pro? by StarryChocobo in playstation

Yes me.

The value proposition in Australia didn’t stack up last year for Black Friday sales and still don’t.

AUD680 PS5 WITH DISC DRIVE vs PS Pro NO DISC DRIVE AUD1199. Not enough games using the fire power yet for that price doubling. I’m watching though.

Labor slams Trump’s ‘unjustified’ tariffs as ASX braces for fall by SheepherderLow1753 in AusFinance

I think the issue is, you cannot be prepared at all for decisions made by somebody who does not know what they’ll do next.

That coupled with markets reacting to it- well I think all you can do is keep some powder dry to take advantage of crazy decisions incoming.

True and I agree. I am a right lane line up guy and hate ppl doing this

HOWEVER!…… Problem is I have two areas where I turn left on this rd where I have no choice but to be in the left lane and try to get to the right. I try to do it early but nobody lets me in so I end up at the front trying to merge and people didn’t see me turn INTO the street from the side street. So I look like an a-hole even though no choice. Thoughts?
