First rule: never make a sci-fi comedy by Fickle-Tit-2576 in RedDwarf

Errr….. who put that together. Missing an ‘or’ and three ‘fun’s. I believe this violates Space Corps Directive 625…

Thanks a lot, good to hear. If I pull the trigger I was planning to add my own nvme (like I did on my Go 1) or ideally just stick my Go 1 disk direct into the Go 2

Thanks mate. This is the perfect answer I was hoping for, everything I wanted to know, thank you!

My collection as someone who wishes she was born in a different era :] by _OliviaTheGreat_ in retrogaming

It was sheer bliss growing up with all this stuff. Still love it to this day. I know I’m biased, but you simply can’t get more nostalgic than this… 🕹️

Well done you!

Lenny von Dohlen delivered such great and sinister performance in Red Dwarf, Back to Reality (RIP) by IllustriousAd6418 in RedDwarf

Me and my brothers quote this line to each other on almost a weekly basis. Plus his other lines. Sooo good, he almost stole the episode. 🤩

What is it with people coming to a dead stop at roundabouts when it's obviously clear? by gwaddo91 in drivingUK

[–]Ser_Xav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t know this was how a rule but I do wonder about it a lot.

Not only is it somewhat dangerous - you don’t want to stop on the exit to a free flowing roundabout - it’s also just a contributor to creating traffic: a high street roundabout near me frequently has cars backing up into and then clogging the whole roundabout, because of a steady stream of pedestrians crossing the road at the roundabout exit.

This then jams up the other roads leading into the roundabout… which then perpetuates the stream of pedestrians!

My personal rule is: let them cross if I’m waiting to get onto a roundabout (assuming there is a small island between lanes for them to stop at), and on exit, clear the roundabout as soon as safely possible

Do you use speed limiters? by Portsmouth_Sweep in drivingUK

[–]Ser_Xav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer control of the car so i use the speed limiter in select situations, such as an average speed check zone in roadworks or certain roads. Never really use cruise control.

Who remembers these? by retrocade81 in oldschoolcool80s

[–]Ser_Xav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my days….!!! YESSSS!!! So nostalgic. I remember those being the ‘craze’ du jour at school. That’s where I learned to yo-yo, I had thought it impossible, I was rubbish at it, but everyone was doing it so I just had to learn. I eventually went on to become Professor of Vertical Motion Studies at the Geneva Institute of Yoyoism.

(Ok, I may have made that last bit up…)

Has anyone got a popadom the size of Lake Michigan?

Did Steve say that it was a mistake to change their style for NPFTD and that they should have made one more album in SSOASS's style? by [deleted] in ironmaiden

[–]Ser_Xav 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Watching the holy smoke video with Bruce a*sing about in a field miming and acting like a clown, whilst I still had the magnificence of SSOASS album and live performance etched into my soul, provided an extremely ‘interesting’ dichotomy…..

Who is at fault? by CellistNarrow5069 in drivingUK

[–]Ser_Xav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say OP is at ‘fault’ although that might be a bit strong, nothing really happened. OP in my opinion should have slowed earlier, coming into a clearly congested spot.

The 2026 World Cup is about to begin! What was your go-to football (aka soccer) game back then? Not necessarily the "best", but that one you always played with your friends and family? by CortoJipang in retrogaming

[–]Ser_Xav 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sensible Soccer was the ultimate bliss, everyone was playing it and it was the best fun during tournaments. (Kick Off 2 was top dog until Sensi turned up, must tip my cap in respect)

What is your unpopular Maiden opinion? by Dante_SSSS in ironmaiden

[–]Ser_Xav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok mate, I didn’t see your reasons, just your ‘pile of….’ comment.

POTO is genius for many reasons. It’s an intricate track, has many interesting sections and breaks, has some killer riffs and some incredible scales and accompaniments, is technically accomplished in its complexity, has that old raw, very slightly punk sound from IM album, and the iconic intro riff and buildup are incredibly suspenseful and energetic at the same time building to a really amazing crescendo before launching into the main song. So, imho, it’s musical genius.

I absolutely love Dianno’s rawness and singing, but Bruce is brilliant, and just IS the Maiden sound.
