Empire Strikes back. Han Solo being carbonised, Luke skywalker hanging from bottom of cloud city. Just wow. Probably earlier ones but that was stamped on my brain.
It sucked for Leclerc with the timing of the yellow and the fact that Verstappen car seemed damage proof, but be able to challenge on older tyres and get past must have been a confidence boost.

It would have been more interesting as an independent activitpub connected service to help illustrate Fediverse != mastodon. Dont really need another twit app though.
Hey folks, just checking in to see what everyone is playing this week! Did you find a hidden gem or are you jamming on a classic? Let us know what you’re playing and what you think of it.
Pretty much sums up Checos year I think. How about Lando, man possessed. Second place hero > zero. Yuki - coulda woulda managed to get a decent haul for AT…
Mercedes will be rueing what could have been. Looks like the one stop strategy didn’t do Danny ric any favours but he’s going to have to do more to prove he deserves a seat.
Of course he’s going to say that, but somehow this is the first I’ve heard that Fede Álvarez is directing an Alien movie. It’s hard to be optimistic about a new Alien announcement lately, but I’m hoping this gets a treatment similar to Dan Trachtenberg’s Prey. It’s also a Hulu release so we’ll see.
It seems that there are safety issues with the tyres this weekend. 3 mandatory pitstops and a maximum of 20 laps per set of tyres would be the solution if the damages are also found after the sprint race.
Mike Portnoy joins Roie, Dan, and Vic on this special episode of Wheel of Prog to help rank the albums of Opeth. How would you rank these? Let us know in the comments....
Given its a ranking list link, I’ll post mine below: I havent heard / purchased all of their albums (mostly the later prog ones as they haven’t clicked enough to warrant repeat listens - yet)
Watched season 1 back when it was first airing, but never got around to season 2. People seem to hate it but I can’t quite tell if that’s because it wasn’t up to the standard of season 1 or if it was just bad TV....
I didn’t particularly like it at the time, but that might have just been it wasn’t what I expected - should do a raimi-a-thon at some point and revisit.
What a fucking disappointment. I’ve not watched the final episode and I’m not going to, as apparently Netflix only understands something sucks if people don’t finish watching it....
Glad I’m not the only one who thinks this. I realize now that I might have preferred a Witcher for hire show with the occasional nod to a bigger story than all this boring conflict.
My favorite eps were probably where he took on the spirit in the house and the dragon quest.
My friend and I collect old video games. But all my physical media just sits on my shelves and collects dust. Why do I even collect them? I literally just emulate everything. Is there a purpose to what I do? People ask me why I collect and I never have a real answer because I don’t even know. If I never play my stuff, is it...
It your stuff. Keep it or get rid of it when you’re ready. There is no obligation either way.
Case in point. I just gave away a PS1 with FFVII and FFVIII, plus a PS2 with GOW1/2, FFXII. We’re moving house and I packed the PS1 in a box and then I realised right then, I didn’t want it anymore. A switch flicked. Inmy case I didn’t want to sell, just give to someone who would treasure them.
If you no longer have a connection to the stuff, maybe free up the space always good to declutter - but don’t get rid of it just because you think you should.
