When I was a kid I mainly bought demo discs, I loved this game. You could go around smashing everything to pieces, flip flop, crash and still be moving forward.

I tend to watch it more these days for video podcasting content and live sports, the platform is actually really good for live sports. WSL, J-League and Bundesliga and whilst they don't show The 6 Nations Rugby (yet!) You can view the Rugby Europe matches there too. Plus more Public Service Broadcasters in the UK are putting their content on the platform. My only worry is the oncoming Boomer onslaught to the platform so they can watch their shows lol

To be fair it was a fun movie if you were a kid and the soundtrack was great.

There are certainly a few good young performers in the UK cast. However, it will be interesting to see how it translates over here. They will be on BSKYB which doesn't traditionally have big viewership numbers, definitely not in the realms of the BBC or ITV. I will say The UK is rather panel show heavy so it will be nice to see some other type of comedy show.

Speaking of panel shows, They have knocked it out the park with the US version of Have I Got News for You. Their casting choices for host and team captains has been inspired.

I recently done a full install of Linux Mint on an old Lenovo Laptop, even with a new RAM Stick, taking it to 14GB of RAM it was still very sluggish running Windows. There was so much Windows and Lenovo bloatware it was wild. Ever since I installed Linux Mint the laptop has worked a dream - It's like a whole new machine.
