- Comment on Mr Bates vs Post Office drama lost £1m, ITV boss says 2 months ago:
ITV seem to be so mismanaged. I know money is tight in TV these days but they should at least be breaking even on their big shows.
In my opinion they only occasionally have good shows like this and the rest is a bit crap. Plus ITV X (or whatever it’s called this month) is the worst streaming service app I have ever tried to use.

- Comment on Is TV Dead? Global TV Shipments Hit a Decade Low in 2023 3 months ago:
Has there really been a killer must-have feature from TVs in the last couple of years? If yours is still working is there a need to buy another?

The entire point of the “fediverse” is to combat the network effect. Don’t like Lenny? Move to another app and still communicate with people on Lemmy. Plus it’s all open, can’t find an app you like? Build one or wait for someone to build one you like.

I don’t think the dialog was that bad, not great but passable. I guess I looked past a lot of issues, performance, combat, because I just wanted to keep exploring the world.
- Comment on What's your favorite game that you will NEVER finish? 5 months ago:
Not my absolute favourite game, but one that I loved is Kingdom Come: Deliverance. But I just don’t have the time to invest into relearning the combat system anymore. Which is a shame because I think the world it creates is amazing and you can get a bit lost in it.
