No sound chip? No problem.

5 channel music from a machine with a beeper and no "volume" control. Wrote his own sound engine as well as the music and did all of this as a teenager while at school.

Stop scrolling and post two characters who bring you happiness 😀
I go back and forth between Chaos, Laser Squad (Speccy version) and UFO: Enemy Unknown as the greatest game of all time. Maybe a three way tie?

Please don't put me on your list! ;)
Anyone on here recently loaned out a lime green Lamborghini Huracàn or a metallic red 2023 Ferrari Purosangue?

If so, they're currently parked one street over being revved to within an inch of their life. Then they go up and down the local bypass, park back up and rinse and repeat.

Adam Ant in The Equaliser immediately popped into my head... along with that incredible theme tune.

Being pro paying the Taliban to commit rape and murder should result in the swiftest exit from professional politics in British history. Just need a news media that reacts to blatant obscenity the way they react to a Labour politician being a woman and working class.

What are the best TV theme songs of all time? Not the best shows — but the opening songs that immediately get you pumped when you hear the first few notes?

My top 5 (not in order)

Game of Thrones
The Office (US)
Poirot
Narcos
Law & Order

What did I miss?

Just remember adding the VO and song from the beginning of Highlander to the Teletubbies intro makes it epic.
There's a Lamborghini Urus on the forecourt of my local petrol station being worked on by the RAC. Apparently it's been there for five hours now.

The driver, who was taking a bride (and bridesmaids) to her wedding stopped to put some fuel in. Unfortunately he used diesel and not petrol.

I can't begin to tell you how much joy your art has brought me since the early B3TA days. I really wish that it brought you all the monies you could want.

Rest in Peace Ray Brooks, voice of a bona fide classic

Mr Benn was a real joy - think I've watched those 13 episodes so many times and still imagine there being something like 50 eps.

Microsoft has released a new Rare 40th anniversary Dynamic Background for the Xbox Series S / X

Performing one last massive farewell hometown gig to tens of thousands of people and then dropping dead just a few days afterwards is an incredibly metal way to go out.
My partner once sat bolt upright in bed and exclaimed in a panicked voice "THERE ARE NO CELLAR STEPS!"

I had to convince her that I was going to go and build some at which point she promptly passed out content.

WTF?!
Years ago I was asked to install WhatsApp by my boss, friends & family so I could be in group chats and for pictures & messages ("but it's free!").

Who pays for messages anymore!? I briefly relented & it was annoying as hell. Uninstalled, closed my WhatsApp account & refuse to have any Meta app.
