Ignore the annoying presenter, the performance is worth it.

 

Yes, I know Quiet Riot did a cover of this.

 

Probably the lamest vocal intro in rock history, but I love this.

Exactly. Most of us have encountered that person at some point in our lives.

You may have a point. That chicken definitely looks underage.

Documentary evidence that the 1970s were more fun than the 21st century.

Lighting was Wright's speciality. The Alchemist is pretty epic too.

Yes, the architectural detail is amazing.

Well it is a cart horse with a bloody great spike on top of its head. What is more surprising is that anyone ever thought of unicorns as being cute.

Yes, I mostly buy from Qobuz and Bandcamp these days, and they've been solid so far. But I don't trust keeping my files in the cloud (aka some else's server), I buy DRM-free, keep copies locally, and keep them backed up.

Exactly, it's not news. If you buy DRM-encoded media you don't own it. You are just leasing it on terms decided by the seller, which are subject to change at their whim.

Buy DRM-free or physical media and make your own copy.

Yes, when I have used Edge it's been absolutely fine. Probably better than Chrome. I'd likely be quite happy to use it most of the time if it wasn't for the fact that Microsoft are so intent on forcing me to do so.

I mostly use Vivaldi now which I think is by far the best of the Chromium-based browsers.

I think in this case the madness pre-dated the religion.
