Damn shame. Always liked an old thumper when it was on at my local.

The Amazon Alexa app for android is really slow and clunky for me. Especially irritating when you just want to turn things on or off or access a device quickly.

You're making the mistake of thinking "the rich" we're talking about here pay income tax at all. If you pay income tax, no matter which bracket, you're not rich. You're part of the working class.

Weird. I bought the bundle last week and it was discounted.

For the sake of those unfamiliar with the title's of those films, could you comma separate please?

As someone already mentioned, BBC Radio 4 have some brilliant dramas. One of my favourites is "Tracks" by Matthew Broughton. Fully dramatised with cast/sound design/score its a thriller with a medical edge. lots of twists and turns There are 5 seasons too.

I think a lot of people have an apathetic outlook towards privacy because they're cynical that anything they can do will have the desired effect. The belief that they can't possibly outsmart these data hungry corporations without putting in what they consider to be hard work is enough to sacrifice it.

A lot of comments suggesting AV1 has better compatibility than h265. In my experience the opposite is true. H265 is supported by all of my devices including Plex on my smart TV without transcoding, whereas AV1 makes everything have a fit trying to play it. Am I doing something wrong?

I'm a bit overwhelmed by the response this has gotten. This thread could serve as a great source of inspiration for people who want to create subs (or is instances the right phrase now?) around topics they're passionate about. Forgive me the cliche but, be the change you want to see! If it doesn't exist, make it.

 

I'm genuinely so excited to see some of the more focussed communities blossom on this platform as they have on Reddit over the years. Which are your favourites and which do you think could succeed here?
