    Everytime I read this sort of sentiment in a comment I'm just totally confused. Do you think Microsoft only looked at your usage for their reports?

    Joining aside, No one is denying it works for you, but the article is suggesting that's not the same for all.

    Im happy to draw the line if you want. If you actively take away the lives of multiple people, then your "human rights" (what human rights are being violated?) should be inconvenienced a little and you are made to sit in court.

    It's just weird that youd link this scenario to a TV show scene.

    It'll be interesting to find out. I personally use rainviewer app on Android for rain notifications/radar. It's been hit miss so far, but generally the same as metoffice (but it has rain radar widget which is what I like)

    The above link and rainviewer both have the same rain cloud heading in my general location. The linked app says there will be rain in 25 minutes but no one else does.

    You're saying that "citizen rights keep being constantly eroded everywhere" so we should allow actual murderers of children to not attend sentencing for this reason? Wouldn't want to hurt their sense of rights.

    Not a chance. I'm not suggesting forcing everyone to appear at their sentence hearing, but for crimes like the one discussed, then they should be made to show up. It's not often murders of at least seven human life's appear in UK courts, but on the rare instances they are, they should definitely be made to show up for sentencing

    I think with kids and loot boxes, it's not an issue of people should spend money how they want, but more about being left out.

    If it was one game and one kid, loot boxes sure, it's a bit of harmless fun. But as soon as there are a bunch of kids, and one kid has a better item, every kid has to have the better item. And it's all blind luck who gets what,unless you spend everything you have

    "Music has the right " is my current go to album while working. Not a big Boards fan, but that album is perfect for background concentration.

    "Beaucoup Fish" from Underworld is my go to if I need a pickup while working.

    To answe OPs question, one album I could listen to forever, would be hard but a coin flip between Radioheasd In Rainbow, and Burials Untrue

    This one was flying low past the house. So I ran to garden to get a photo as it very low but it never appeared so I went back to the front and could see all the bushes around the corner blowing. And when I looked it was just there with a few doctors jumping out

    Still playing Tears of Kingdom. Think I'm nearly done with all quests apart from final boss. First I'd like to get all armour and upgraded. But beyond that it might be nearly end of game time.

    Not sure after that. Just dusted off the old GameCube as it's been a while since I played that. Also have Humble Bundle of metroidvania games I'd like to start.

    More people need to watch Dead Loch on Amazon . Good comedy cop drama.

    A lot of early reviews said it was good but complained about one character. That one character was written to be annoying but get more bearable throughout the story. The series as a whole was a great traditional murder mystery with twists, and some comedy to go with it.

    Currently just started Will Trent. Only watched one episode but seems to fill a gap created by Monk, Psych, Castle, Lie to Me.

    Also binge re watching Silicon Valley. Such a funny show.

    I recently watched Clone Wars, not for Ashoka series though. Thought it was ok, but the last two season and half were incredible. The last three episode arc of the season five was amazing.

    Don't think I'll watch Rebels though. Like you, feeling a little Star Warsd out.

    Same with me. Bought home (20 years old, not a new build). Hot water tank needed replacing + energy company we're doing grants. When I enquired, they replied my house was not suitable due to pipes being too small.

    I wonder in the number of enquiries in to heat pumps between the two countries is just as wide, or if they're a bit more similar?

    Started watching Dead Loch on Amazon Prime. It's a fun comedy small town big murder mystery cop show. It's really funny. Read a few people complain about one of the characters being frustratingly annoying, which is accurate but that's part of her personal story arc, so does change a few episodes in.

    If you like comedy, and small town murder mystery shows, definitely give it a watch.

    And just re subbed to Netflix after about a year away. Got Beef and Diplomat on my watch list. Any other recommendations for year old good Netflix shows?

    Not a massive Trek fan but enjoyed Voyager. I really couldn't get in to Discover. Season 1 was ok but it all felt a bit too cheesy or predictable.

    Star Trek New World on the other hand has been great. I think that's also on Paramount+

    Sometimes I'll get stuck in listening to a single album for a month or more, and nothing else. Currently I'm stuck listening to Underworlds Beaucoup Fish. Such a great album.

    Currently trying to finish off Clone Wars still. I've got a few days left of Disney subscription and everyone says it's "a great show." Found it to be pretty average, except for the last two and a bit seasons which have some amazing episodes.

    To add to this, the dotted line on the map OP has shown is the route in the depths.

    Also the lesser dragons, their route is supposed to be 30 minutes. Perhaps just stand at top of tower Thyplo for a bit and look towards east
