I don’t care about colours or AA batteries, I’d rather have a cable personally, I do agree on the choice though.

Anything from the 360 onwards and my preferred controllers. A permanently wired 360 controller that does away with the massive battery compartment it my favourite but these days I use an “Xbox one” version with the USB C cable.

I’ve owned 5’s and 6’s and used 8’s and 10’s, as you say there are probably objectively “better” monitors but for some powered speakers that are of a high quality both sound and build wise I have no qualms recommending them.

I don’t know if I would consider myself an “audiophile” but I do DJ for myself and like to have a decent set of speakers.

I have owned a few pairs of KRK Rokit speakers and currently have a set of Rokit 6’s. I like them for their overall pretty neutral sound, ideally I would have a sub along with it but space is an issue for me right now so I can make do. They have a sufficient amount of bass for my small flat by themselves to be honest.

I run them through my DJ controller (Traktor S4 mk3 if you care) and have run past pairs I’ve owned through other DJ controllers and basic focusrite USB audio interfaces.

I wouldn’t say these are super high end but I find they offer a very good listening experience for not a great deal of money (I always buy second hand where I can), this set set me back around £160 if I remember correctly.

Nah not shavings, it was a chocolate sponge cake with a chocolate sauce over the top

Not “fast food” but a junk food, cadburys used to do a chocolate sponge cake in a tin that was the best. Im not even a massive fan of chocolate but these things were great!

Ours are getting so out of hand that they are starting to encroach on the TV but I’m not even mad. TV looks better when viewed through a jungle anyway xD

Our outdoor plant game is much weaker though, I feed all the neighbourhood birds and the pigeons love to get into the outside plant pots and wreck out shit!

I haven’t played 1 or 2 personally but would echo what is being said here for the rest.

I played p4g first and fell in love with it. P3P is pretty similar really but with slightly less QoL things going on but I don’t find it too much of a downgrade to be honest.

Either way each one has its own story then with similarities like in spell names and the like, similar to how final fantasy is.

I enjoyed Metal Gear Ac!d games which were a sort of card game / turn based spin off in the metal gear world.

I’m currently playing Persona 3 Portable so if you are into those kind of games it is pretty great.

I think someone else mentioned it but Valkyria Chronicles is worth checking out, another turn based delight.

I’m an expert on one-armed Herdazian jokes. ‘Lopen,’ my mother always says, ‘you must learn these to laugh before others do. Then you steal the laughter from them, and have it all for yourself.’ She is a very wise woman.

I do, also funny how conservative government affiliates and past if not present family members own the largest cannabis farms within the UK. It is almost as if they have other motives too…

I was reading your response knowing I definitely remember the whole “Talk to frank” campaign but couldn’t recall any of the adverts. That one I definitely remember as soon as it started though!

I think the SNAP one I mentioned was a precursor to the frank campaign and was a lot more negative leaning than this. At least this acknowledges that it isn’t all negative, still fucking pathetic that this country still won’t legally let me go and buy my fucking weed though.

I don’t know if it will help with your search but the UK equivalent (at least where I grew up) was not DARE but SNAP, which stood for Say No And Phone. It was your usual anti drugs propaganda encouraging people to snitch on others when offered drugs as well.

It wasn’t pushed super hard as I only remember a couple of intentionally disingenuous talks full of lies and scare tactics and a few “discos” that pushed the same bs. I don’t ever remember anything about it on TV and I get the impression our anti drug propaganda was a lot more half hearted than the US equivalent DARE.

This was in the late 90s and early 00s.

What do you mean by “I’m not sure about the inclusive words for French due to my convictions as a Christian”?

They currently have 75% off if that makes a difference to you but I don’t pay for it and have been having a fine time with it just watching a short advert every now and then.

I quite like busuu for Spanish so far. It is a lot better than Duolingo trash as it actually explains things rather than just throwing stuff at you that is often incorrect anyway.

There are literally 10’s of us that still desire a physical keyboard on a phone.

The blackberry keytwo was the best phone I have ever owned but it is too outdated now to carry on using :(

I had it exactly once. I watched three videos and then used it as an excuse to just go to bed. Did exactly nothing and haven’t had another pop up since *shrug"
