I'd be happy to keep the ones that say:

"we notice you are in europe and we can't use our cookies to track you so you can't come to our website"

It's good to know sites with policies like that to ensure I never visit them.

I recently started getting ads on my discover feed, it was the last Google thing to be ad free, it used to be a good selection of my interests and local news, I've turned it off now as it's full of irrelevant crap and adverts.

There's 7 spaces in the baking tray, there's 8 brownies! What is the 8th brownie op!

I've played this and enjoyed it, but I feel it lacks the immersion that a first/third person game world could bring to my fantasy game

I've toyed with the idea of playing, watched some YouTube walk throughs, it does hit the brief of my wish list game other than not being First/Third person game world....maybe I should give it a go

Mine are Shokz, I've had them a couple of years now with no issues at all, the battery lasts for many hours, I've never had then run out for.my use case

An open world game but the world is just a few city blocks, every single room in every building must be detailed & explorable, there would be a hospital, apartment, houses, businesses, shops, tunnels, parkland, garages etc etc.

The game would be a group of survivors, their needs for food, water, medication , clothes, fuel would be satisfied by exploring the environment and buildings, you need insulin? Search the hospital or medicine cabinets in the homes, you need food? Search the shops and kitchens? Water? Collect rainwater ... Each game day would present a list of priorities for the survivors to manage.

Risk and jeopardy would come from the environment it's self, other survivors who you could trade with or fight. Packs of wild dogs, maybe a few zombies but certainly not hoards, perhaps a Lion, escaped from the zoo. There are no long guns in this apocalypse but perhaps a pistol with limited ammo.

Importantly this must be a 1st/3rd person open world, the look and feel of the Last of Us 2.

Bone conducting ear phones, I have tiny narrow ear canals and can't get any type of ear bud to go in my ears, the bone conductors are a revelation for listening to audio books, radio and music when I'm out and about

My satellite TV (Sky TV ... UK) subscription ended recently and they would not give me any sort of deal to sign a new contract, Come black Friday they a spamming me by email and every type of advert for great deals for NEW Customers only!

I called SKY to cancel and they offered me a better deal but we're going to charge me an admin fee to sign a new contract, they wanted me to pay them to sign a contract with them!

I told them that it was not acceptable and cancel my service, having been put through to "my manager" they eventually waived the admin fee...

How has it come to this, I'm an easy customer, I am happy with the product, I'll sign a contract if it's a good deal, but they went out of their way to lose me

We had all this back in the 1970s with "Robots and Computers will take all our jobs" scaremongering.

As factories & production lines started to use robots and CNC machines, CAD and digital imaging appeared, accounting software etc etc we were all going to lose our jobs and live a life of unemployed leisure.

Never happened.

I'm sure AI will play an important role in the future but like so many new fads it will settle into its niche and we will all be okay.
