Today 400 million functional PCs have been pushed towards early obsolescence, let's take a minute to appreciate how much eWaste that will generate.
I get many people will use alternative OS's, but all those businesses out there won't. Quite shocking really isn't it! 😔

Collect CDs (Thrift them it's cheaper) rip them and play them anywhere. (You might be able to tell I way too many CDs)

Depends which Speccy as 128 has AY sound along with the beeper and much more available memory than the C64 despite it's lack of graphics hardware.

Near Future Labour probably"all subjects required to have A-Level English attached to their digital ID"

David Neil Robinson @ddigitalmedia.bsky.social · 18h

Well I'm British and I don't have any A-Levels I have NVQs and City & Guilds relevant to my skillset. I never sat an English GCSE because I can't write due to disability.

We had to read a few at School (bare in mind this was a class of the poorest readers and anti social idiots) I've always been good at reading but a boring prose is a boring prose even when extracts are read aloud.

David Neil Robinson @ddigitalmedia.bsky.social · 1d

Yes there's not enough time to read boring slop. Some books are boring and that's alright

I'm never really bleeding edge, heck my last full build was partly cannibalised from a OEM machine and another old build.

Also quite enjoy the SteamOS handheld experience.

Just gonna stick with PC here on out, my PS5 has not been turned on in ages nor my Xbox

David Neil Robinson @ddigitalmedia.bsky.social · 1d

Xbox has had a tiny physical games footprint over here in the UK for the last two generations. GAME is not really a thing now as a store but Smyths Toys are more interested in pushing the PS5 and Switch.

I'm on Plusnet which is BT and I now can't access the Internet Archive and several other US sites even with Google DNS without first pointing my VPN at US servers.

Anyone else experiencing huge Vodafone outage, use them for broadband and been down for ages and can’t access their website or their phone number

David Neil Robinson @ddigitalmedia.bsky.social · 1d

Several others have randomly gone down as well not as widespread as Vodafone but I suspect probably sharing of interconnects somewhere that affecting other providers in some areas.

I wonder who is going to step into the void, I don't think it will be Valve even if they return to consolised Steam Machine as SteamOS is very much for the PC nerds (me!) It's not got any normie market penetration.

Well it's not like Hollyweird elites will do anything, most of them are either in cults and other weird groups or outright sexual predators themselves.
