So glad that you've made this. The metoffice redesign is crap.

Seems that sunrise/sunset are missing

Agree with the sentiment but the author's brain rotten rant is projection for being part of the problem

No, all games require updates, they do not function without them

In my case, 4.6 degraded massively over time. 5 fails the same basic tasks that I gave 4.6 yesterday. And quite frankly this low, med, high, extra, max, turbo, ultra, ludicrous nonsense is getting tiresome

It's not just new hardware, even used hard drives manufactured a decade ago have at least doubled in price. Scam Altman has effectively killed personal computing for all but the most affluent

It's very convenient, I wish I could offer a worthy suggestion. The trouble in my case is that it's very sensitive and the palettes are barely in view before the page refreshes, they don't reach the center of the screen. Thanks for sharing

Very nice. My only gripe is the automatic page switching on scroll, never encountered that before and I absolutely hate it

Cancelled my subscription after repeatedly hitting ridiculously low limits. Unfortunately since off-peak free usage was increased there are way more timeouts and failed requests, but hey at least it's free.
