Are there any magazines in the UK worth reading?
  • It's one of two magazines I still buy; the other being Viz comic, the other end of the spectrum.

    I used to enjoy Fortean Times too; not sure whether the quality of the articles declined, or if my tastes got more refined. Probably a bit of both

  • Projectivy Launcher stopping BBC iPlayer working.
  • Ok, it's not Projectivity. It looks like iPlayer has been removed from the app store on that device, so it can't be updated to the fixed version. Boo.

    Workaround!! If you have BBC Sounds installed, keep that, but uninstall iPlayer. Then, open BBC Sounds, and it'll say "can't find iPlayer, please install it" and that gives a direct link to install the latest iPlayer version. No idea why BBC iPlayer isn't showing up in search results on the Play Store though.

  • How do you balance playing with your kids and leaving them to play by themselves/with siblings?
  • I found time spent playing alone has seen a gradual increase over the years. Once upon a time I could leave them alone for all of 15 seconds before the call of 'daaaaaadeeeee' came along. Nowadays they can manage over an hour by themeselves. I'm hoping this trend continues.

  • [Forever-free Friday] The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall
  • I really want to love it, but gameplay-wise it's got little in common with later TES games, and there's still plenty of things functionally broken about it. Probably my favourite gaming / let's play youtuber is Many A True Nerd, and even he gave up after three episodes. I think it's worth checking out that series for a decent overview.

  • Linux Mint 22 Adopts PipeWire, New Linux Kernel Cadence - OMG! Ubuntu
  • I'll start using Mint... heck, any version of Linux... as soon as they introduce a proper UI for a plethora of system settings. If I ever have to use a command line for anything but THE most esoteric, potentially system-damaging scenarios, the O/s has failed in my book. (Windows user since 3.1, never lasted more than a day with Linux)
