I usually quite like Guardian articles once I start reading them. I just feel wary of news when its couched in emotive language. It's like when you see current affairs items on television with backing music.
I know objective truth is perhaps, an illusion ... but even so .. you'd like it to be an ideal, at least, of sorts, in news and current affairs media ...

I would like more facts, more systemic coverage. Less shouted opinions. Then why on earth are you here? To give you the benefit of my wisdom, obviously. And because the alternative is doing some work or being bored elsewhere on the internet. |

As baby sorta says...
The nvme drives you get in PC's that are now in the PS5 are very very fast.
Good luck getting one. I see the bawbag scalpers got another 2000 machines from Game. With the usual 'some of our members are furloughed and this puts food in their kids bellies' bullshit.
I'm sure it's true for a few of them but not as many as they make out.

Ah - thank you, thank you ... I am thinking of getting one, mainly for the novelty of having something new. Though the sensible part of me says I should wait until its smaller and has wireless VR ... |

Demon's remake update (only available on PS5):
Last night I beat the Old Monk. Based on Sheep2's information, I'm pretty sure I was lucky enough to go up against the computer controlled Old Monk rather than a human invader scumbag. I know this because, a) I didn't die in 30 seconds and b) I won, smashed his face in actually.
Four worlds left, 1-3,1-4,5-2 & 5-3.

I'm not Scottish (though I think my nan might have been born in Scotland) but I might buy a bottle of Scotch whiskey for Burns night.
I'm not really familiar with the poetry of Robert Burns either (except for that poem about the mouse). I'd like to become Scottish though, I think, in a purely technical sense. A back door into France.

Do you think ... if you live in Scotland at the exact moment of independance, you could become Scottish? (if you were born in England)
I hope it doesn't go like the partition of India.

I don’t know, a mad scramble as both sides try to get over Hadrian’s Wall at the same time could be fun to watch. (Yes, I know the partition of India was a terrible thing and lots of people died) |

Hadrian's Wall is entirely in England. Wallsend is over 60 miles south of the border.
Plus apart from the bits in the middle the wall is not a significant barrier
