I did preface it with "Enhances" :-) In No Man's Sky, the sentinels are complete and utter b***ards all the time. 3 weeks off a month is an upgrade?
Anyway, no offence intended, I have huge respect for the fairer sex.

Please Miss, can I have one that enhances rather than diminishes???

The sentinels are fine for 3 weeks of the month, but then they're LETHAL :-)

Having watched the news this evening, the video of that incident is clearly and unequivocally murder. At no point was deadly force required. Yes, she was trying to evade ICE and had been harassing them verbally. But that's the thing VERBALLY should never equal deadly force. Shocking... :-(

I'm surprised you survived the visit. I simply assumed you would burst into flames :-)

Happy New Year day to you and yours too. Hope you've had a lovely time :-) Scurrilous comments from your nephews notwithstanding. PS. Did they get coal?

Nice, that should be a chunk of change in the bank :-)

No no, I'm old. I don't get annoyed when other old, but only slightly younger people point that out :-) Merry Christmas Tilly :-)

Ooooh crikey, we were poor up North. But I remember nagging my single mother for this when I was about 11.

Big thumbs up to Corsair. Even though the faulty DDR4 was installed in 2019, I submitted a claim under their lifetime warranty and it's been honoured. Not only that, but they sent me a pre-paid postage label. Can't fault service like that. Well done Corsair :-)

DDR5 went into short supply as AI & Data centres hoovered up all the supply and future supply until at least March 2026. This lead to a demand for DDR4 systems which has lead to a shortage of supply of that. If you can find any for sale before Christmas it will be 3x what it was last year.

Just spent one and half days diagnosing and fixing my son's PC (and putting Windows 11 on it). In the end, it was the DDR4 memory. That's gonna be expensive to replace at the moment. I've given him some from my own PC, but I can't use that now until prices drop to a more sensible level.

That is a mighty fine collection of games played, well done. 10/10 :-)

Is that "An original" or "The original"? If it is "The original" I hope you're charging the going rate for an artist who might be getting recognition in her own time :-)

I never said Arc Raiders should've won, but not to be talked about at all... It's Hades Vs The Last of us PT 2 all over again :-)

Given that Expedition 33 was so bad, yet it swept up at the awards, there needs to be an alternative GOTY list. And if Arc Raiders isn't on it, we'll be 'aving words :-)

I think you forgot to edit this one. Seems perfectly sensible to me :-) See, you're supposed to edit an existing book cover and change the title to make it humorous. There, I've explained it to you :-)

And is it safe for the lucky person to assume that you would also be there? Just in case, they're not a classic game box fetishist :-)
