      My cars have all been relatively stupid, by modern standards, my motorbikes too, as I’ve never owned anything younger than ten years.

      Linux would be great if… I could get it on great hardware, and have it play VR games (plus any modern titles). I’m teetering on a second hand Razer Blade running W10 to get my fix.

      I’ve had a few smart TVs, and none of them have ever bothered me with ads I don’t know what TVs people are getting. But currently I have a Panasonic TV and a Samsung TV and both of those are fine.

        Mine is not ads as I haven’t connected it to the internet, but the fact that the settings out of the box on a so-called state-of-the-art TV are absolutely fucked and contrary to how it should be.
