π Used to be able to watch The Benny Hill Show on BBC America, wonder where it is now. Will need to find out! Probably BritBox or Acorns TV π
Yeah, The Phantom wasn’t really my cup of tea either. I always found that sort of thing did better as a radio broadcast but I may perhaps be a bit old fashioned π
Saw April Fool’s Day the other day and…[Read more]

Yeah, I remember how Windows used to overwrite my newer video drivers with some that were several years old. It broke things when it did that! π Fortunately, it seems that Microsoft has fixed that issue π

Watched Valérian et la Cité des mille planètes (excuse the French) the other night.
Should we ever mention that word “uneven”, some spectacular visuals, the basic plot line worked, but wanted beefing up, ditto for the leads, enjoyable enough not to turn it off half way through, as one would in the ca…[Read more] -

Funny thing about this, we say nothing if things are fine, and become very loud if they are not.
Yep, video drivers updates used to be weird, MS preferred to handle them “automatically”, the video driver folk were always wont find something to complain about WU, and in many cases, justifiably so. Things have settled somewhat since then. π -

Sorry for missing this! Know it’s been six weeks but any luck yet?
Speaking of, I need to get my own drivers updated at some point, specifically the video drivers. Been a ton of updates since I got the new system and I haven’t been keeping up. π

Let’s hope it helps! There is a plugin available that lets you add snippets to the site so they don’t get lost during a theme update. Might be worth looking at once we get BuddyPress updated (I’ll try to get those threads up this weekend if you don’t beat me to it) π

Tried a LiteSpeed modification, the above would work for a local setup, as corrected at BBPress.

The city was using a robotic lawnmower yesterday to clean up the roadways and that thing was quiet! Was fun watching it for a few minutes while the guy manipulated the controller π
Power Girl has an interesting cover coming out in February: https://s3.amazonaws.com/comicgeeks/comics/covers/large-4994261.jpg?1700346193

Who wouldn’t climb a mountain to see Benny Hill? There are plenty of memories here, this compilation came up first in Google.
The Phantom was on FTA tonight, not really worth watching twice, notwithstanding it’s been that long, and it flunks out in a rather fun way.
On Portlandia, there’s a diagnosis of Early Onset…[Read more] -

Been a big fan of the site for years. It’s a great way to keep track of some of the more obscure films that I like π
I only watched the first six episodes or so of La Brea before I gave up on it. Too much just didn’t make sense! For example, the ambulance landed miles away from the portal (how, they never explained) and was still in working…[Read more]

Yep! π
I usually go west since there are a lot fewer people π
In terms of quality, I think the East coast has better quality personally. π
The one I went to the other day had interesting facilities. They hadn’t yet rebuilt it from the hurricane a few months ago so the facilities were still in the marshlands, upside down. Pretty hard to use…[Read more]

I think what we did was turn off the previous plugin in most places but I’m not entirely sure.
Yeah, I think it’s a side-effect of how they function. Granted, I don’t know a whole lot about server stuff π

The larger crabs can double as mummies for extra effect – to be captured a youtube video, no less! π
Do you journey east or west for the best beaches?
Yay, Codeproject feed has returned, heralded by a marvellous gripe about Stupid Editor Lines & Symbols courtesy MS no less. π -

The Broodx are getting through to the DAS in the fibre-optic cables! Let’s check with them:

Well tonight the bubble on the forums landing page was at least a minute slower than the one in this forum topic. Hmmm, don’t think there was this particular problem with Cache enabler, assuming the memory is reliable.
Can say with certainty there were no issues before the caching plugins bubbled up. π -
Spastic Hamburger replied to the topic Forum & Topic "Read" Bubble Slow in the forum Forum 11 months, 1 week ago
Could be that the caching only affects the index? I think the previous plugin we used had the same behavior

The “read” bubble dissipating within the forum thread, but not in the main or root forums page points to an indication that at least something in there is off. π

Sounds good! I may be getting a sub to Nature or Science for my birthday, which would be nice as well. π
Yeah, I miss the RSS days. Now it’s too hard to keep up with everything! I’m finding that it’s much easier to follow print than it is to follow the sites. Most stuff on the sites now is too abbreviated for my liking. They used to be a lot…[Read more]

No idea! It’s amazing what the atmospheric conditions do to the sound!

Space sounds are awesome!
