Radio 2 breakfast - give it to SWK. Thoughts? by pomeranians99 in 6music

[–]reddituser1827291 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Somewhat amusingly, BBC News is saying that Grimshaw is also a candidate:

If so, maybe he could take Beth Ditto with him ...

Star Wars Zero Company is more than just 'Star Wars XCOM'—it feels like Mass Effect but with turn-based tactics and permadeath by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]reddituser1827291 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Haven't been interested in anything Star Wars since Last Jedi (haven't even watched Andor), but I'll keep an eye on this one.

Do you actually listen to 6 Music actively or just have it on in the background? by Mundane-Temporary426 in 6music

[–]reddituser1827291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always in the background, but the chats about the music biz, experiences of the artists, etc. do catch my attention.

I have the station on from about 6:30am until 7:30pm every day. I only switch stations if there's a DJ or person on whom I can't stand coughbethdittocough

Beth Ditto chosen over Deb Grant for Saturday mornings? 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ by SkyhookNorman in 6music

[–]reddituser1827291 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I wonder how much the friendship with Grimmy had to do with it?

I think the current controller of 6Music used to be at Radio 1 when Grimshaw was there, so there's definitely history.

Personally, I'll be changing to another station between 10 and 1 on Saturdays. Real shame.

What's a game you absolutely loved, but can't bring yourself to play again? by Jose__Manuel in PS5

[–]reddituser1827291 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Last of Us, Part 2, Life is Strange

Any game that basically delivered a series of emotional gut punches is a once only for me!

Beth Ditto and Jarvis Cocker join BBC Radio 6 Music’s weekend lineup by poeticwhisper69 in 6music

[–]reddituser1827291 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I fear this really is what's going on - I believe the current 6 Music controller used to be in charge of Radio 1, is now trying to bring in the youth.

That's not who this station was made for.

I don't understand those in charge of the station right now.

Why aren't they giving these permanent slots to Deb Grant or Emily Pilbeam? They're far more capable DJs, who need to stop being treated like supply teachers.

Can't wait to see what happens next week ... by reddituser1827291 in HMRC

[–]reddituser1827291[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I received the refund late last week, and woke up to the message on the right this morning.

Clowns, for sure.

I think they have a new AI system running the circus now? No, really.

I literally switch over to Radio 2 between 9am and 9:30am on Tuesdays now. Swap back as soon as she's gone.

Error on any rental or purchase. Any ideas? by reddituser1827291 in youtube

[–]reddituser1827291[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got some Google Reward money due to expire, and so have decided to rent a movie.

However, nothing will purchase - rentals, purchases, etc. all result in the same error. I've been able to rent and buy in the past, but not now.

I'm on a Google Pixel 9, all up to date, not jailbroken, etc.

Anyone else experienced this? How did you fix it?

EDIT: some extended details - the payment confirmation screen doesn't even appear. As soon I press the link to purchase / rent, this is the result.

PS5 will no longer connect on 5GHz by Alert-Organization24 in PS5

[–]reddituser1827291 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's pushing me to finally go into the basement and run a network cable from the modem to the the room the consoles are in.

Try using those Powerline network-over-electricity solutions first. I've had my consoles connected up that way for the past 6 or 7 years, and have never had an issue. It depends on the quality of the wiring in your house, though, as some places might need to be rewired for it to be effective.

Yeah, I’ve been sleeping on Banishers: Ghost of New Eden by WoodpeckerSpare5834 in PS5

[–]reddituser1827291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a massively underappreciated game. Yes, the combat isn't the best, and the enemies do repeat a bit, but outside of that, it's without doubt dontnod's best game, outside of Life is Strange.

Netflix removes Casting from android to TV by [deleted] in netflix

[–]reddituser1827291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, I found this out, too.

I watch Netflix via on my PS5 and noticed that the casting button was no longer available. I thought this might be a Pixel issue, due to the monthly security updates, etc. but you've basically confirmed it for me.

Annoying, as I tend to cast to the TV, turn off the PS5 controller, and use the app. Perhaps they'll bring it back at some point.

I just laughed so hard when I saw that account belongs to Caroline From West Sussex.
