[1/18] Question: What do you do with a broken iMac that's over a decade old?
The conventional answer is obvious: "throw it away and buy a new one"
But I had other ideas...
An iMac '09 in 2020, a thread:

@BaronDestructo Bobbie Draper for me, although I was seriously tempted by Marcus Boone!

@TheotherWill_NE Doesn’t the “Pop!” app that they love to advertise have all that stuff?

@MathOJames22 I’m very curious to know more about what policies you see the LD as unserious about.

@HVilday I don’t know how to meaningfully vote on this one! 😅

If I were to leave my party and join your party (not that one yours specifically) would you want me to?

@chase_blount Be controversial and drink Irn-Bru. Nobody will be expecting that!

@BaronDestructo Tough choice, but I’m gonna have to go with Wash on this one.

Holy smokes! The search for our ship's Helmsman concludes in a most unexpected championship face-off! Can Pilot pull the upset?

@villagemidiot @caibyy That and the cost of logistics. I suspect that has much more impact on prices than people realise.

Supermarkets run notoriously slim profit margins, they really aren’t the problem. This is just antisocial behaviour.

@AndyLandy I believe the Coburn estate only affects streaming and they had already negotiated a deal for physical media before Stef Coburn went a bit doo lally.

This could mean a Season One box set is further around the corner than we all would have thought. Unless they're waiting for Marco Polo to be found. #DoctorWho

Can't find the original source for this, but apparently Radio Times got it wrong. Episode 5 of The Daleks was amongst the collection. The stored field copy of that episode was damaged, so could prove to be very useful for The Collection.

@MondasScavenger @TheCyberdevil For sure. That’s likely, but it’s also possible that the decision to sell as an 11-parter was made after the VTs were telerecorded. I remember Paul Vanezis (I think) speculating along those lines. As other episodes have shown up as engineering prints, it’s possible FoS might too.

@Camille_Hiiragi @Doinkadect There’s no evidence that a 16mm tele recording was ever made, when the story was offered for sale it was always minus episode 7, and documentation shows that the master tape was wiped.

I have a suspicion all of Master Plan (bar 7) might be out there somewhere…

@OrderOfVader99 Exactly. It’s a winning formula and that’s what they should be targeting with every story.
English
@AndyLandy Oh I’m not saying make it so childish that it should be a CBeebies show
Some of the best classic era stuff got the balance so right for being engaging for an older audience whilst not cutting out the younger viewers
Same as with the early revival seasons
English
Doctor Who is primarily aimed towards families and kids
If you want a more mature sci fi show look elsewhere for it as Doctor Who was originally a Kids show and should look at making it geared towards them and their interest than the more mature audience
#DoctorWho
English
@OrderOfVader99 I agree that Doctor Who certainly does not need adult/mature content. But I’d also prefer it not to be childish rubbish. It’s perfectly possible to create something that’s intelligent and engaging while remaining family-friendly. I like it best when they do that. 🙂
English
@AndyLandy True but I just think the people wanting to cut out that whole demographic to get a show they want really should look elsewhere for that idea as the whole concept originally was for kids which then developed to families which low & behold includes kids in that area

@mellis107 @thatotherharry @Sontar22 Ugh. Ian always has to show up in my TL and spoil things. I never thought I’d see the day when he was actually disappointed by an episode recovery!
