Yeah I think seasons 4-12 are the kind of 'safe' era, but you can go a few seasons either way and still get some bangers, it's just a little more patchy.

I thought the general broad strokes of what happened were fine (IE with

spoilerDaenerys being the big villain and stuff
), I just thought it was rushed and done in a kind of sloppy way. I really didn't like
spoilerBran becoming the king though

'cause I fucking hate that character lol.

Yeah I'm similar, I'm in for about $45 or so from the Kickstarter. I wrote it off and stopped paying attention about 6-7 years ago (it was already pretty far behind then!) but I figure, I've wasted more money on dumber stuff before, and if an actual game ever does happen to materialise then I'll give it a look.

It was originally supposed to come out in about 2016 I think.

My first car was an ancient Renault that was plagued with electrical issues, to the point that it was actually pretty funny. I was also a penniless student at the time and I don't know how to fix cars, so I just sort of put up with it.

It used to drain the battery when it was parked, so I kept a spare battery in the boot and some jumper cables and used to have to jump-start it every time I switched the engine off.

One time I was driving at night and the headlights started dimming until they were nearly off, I turned the radio off and they came back on again.

Eventually I finally took it to the scrap yard, they said it was worthless but they gave me £10 for the tape deck lol.

Technically the worst car I ever had, but also one of my favourites.

To clean them, simply attach a big brush to the underside of the trains. 👍

If it helps at all, I'm typing this on a Lenovo Ideadpad 5 that has a Ryzen 5 and 8gb that's running up-to-date Arch (btw) and KDE perfectly well with no troubles at all. I haven't owned the Yoga Slim specifically, but I've had a few Lenovos over the years and mine have all run various forms of Linux quite happily.

Eaters of Light is the most Scottish Doctor Who has ever been I think. It was written by a Scottish writer (Rona Munro) under a Scottish showrunner (Steven Moffat) with a Scottish Doctor (Peter Capaldi) and a Scottish Master (Michelle Gomez) and is set almost entirely in ancient Scotland lol.

The Steam Deck sort-of has it on some games already, but it's a bit hacky. I did get 60fps Cyberpunk going though, which was a nice surprise. It'll be great to get a proper unified way of doing frame-gen though.

I assume this is the same reason why they want to ban TikTok but not Facebook - it's not so much that they object to the data harvesting, they just object to non-American data harvesting that they can't readily influence.

When they announced Steam Machines the first time, I thought it was a great idea because it would give PC devs a sort of baseline system to aim for, and then I was surprised when they launched and they were all sorts of different system specs. I'm still convinced that's at least partly why they failed - if you buy a console like a Playstation or XBOX, part of the appeal is that you know exactly what you're getting and what will run on it. If it says 'PS5', it'll run on your PS5.

So hopefully if they try again it'll be something along those lines, kind of like the Steam Deck.

Yeah same here, I thought it was one of the few cases where the adaptation was better than the book. It cuts out a lot of the waffle from the books and patches up lots of holes, especially with characters like you said.
