    Spec Talk That One Gadget You Regret Buying

    What's the one gadget you thought was going to revolutionise your life but turned out to be a wet turd?

    Discussion Binge or Weekly?

    I'm old enough to remember when you had no choice but to wait until next week for the next episode. When a TV show was on at 9pm on a Saturday and if you missed it, well that's it, you missed it. Now, everything is On Demand. Streaming services are many, and you can often access an entire series...

    Discussion Star Wars Horror TV Project?

    Apparently, it's time for Star Wars to put on a spooky mask and try horror. Because after galaxy-spanning civil wars, morally bankrupt trade federations, and an increasingly confused timeline of Jedi trauma, the next logical step is Force ghosts that scare people.

    Discussion Social media is now less social, more media.

    I hate social media. Okay, that’s not 100% true. I hate our reliance on social media, the addictive nature of the medium, that it is so front and centre in our lives. I also get mighty pissed at the damage it has done to good old fashioned internet forums. Everything on social media is...

    Discussion Which app do you open first every morning and why?

    It’s not a productivity thing. We’re talking habit, instinct, muscle memory. Is it messages? Email? Reddit? TikTok? Something else? Your first tap says a lot. Let’s see what everyone’s running on reflex. I check my emails first, then usually Discord as there’s inevitably one or two messages...

    News Instagram’s Future Is on the Line

    The FTC vs Meta trial started yesterday, and they’re going after the company’s ownership of Instagram and WhatsApp. If this goes badly for Zuckerberg, Meta could be forced to split them off entirely. The FTC’s argument is that Facebook’s buyouts were “killer acquisitions” meant to kill...
