They have such a distinctive sound. You know instantly what's coming when you hear it.
There's a couple of helicopters we normally get over Southampton, either the air ambulance or more often than not the police copter 🙄

I live near a US Army National Guard training base, so we get all kinds of military traffic over my house - a variety of helicopters, big C-130 aircraft (my next door neighbor anime groupie is in the Guard and services the C-130 planes), and we use to see a lot of A-10 Warthogs, Apache helicopters, and the awesomely-cool Sky-Crane helicopters, until they moved them to other nearby bases a bit further away.

Also near me is Solent Airport where you can pay to go up in a Spitfire, so we get that flying around most days when the weather is nice.
Not great pictures as its really hard to get a good one of a Spitfire with your phone.

Ha! That second photo looks like a door came off the plane and is falling to earth... 🤣

Until they do night exercises, from someone living near the Army Air Corps (under the flight path due to the Porton Exclusion Zone).
They can be quite noisy when there isn't much noise

My goodness, living there would have made my 12 year-old-self so very happy! Just remember playing all sorts of A10 tank killer, F117 stealth bomber and likely also Apache flight sim games back then, when not playing Lucasarts point&click adventure games...aaaah good times.I live near a US Army National Guard training base, so we get all kinds of military traffic over my house - a variety of helicopters, big C-130 aircraft (my next door neighbor anime groupie is in the Guard and services the C-130 planes), and we use to see a lot of A-10 Warthogs, Apache helicopters, and the awesomely-cool Sky-Crane helicopters, until they moved them to other nearby bases a bit further away.

Not sure if this really counts as news but Otaku.co.uk website got an update in the last day or so. Seem much nicer and has sort by, so just a bit easier to navigate and a nice simple layout.

After years of telling myself I would, I finally cancelled my Netflix subscription. I'm obnoxiously pleased with myself about it. Anyone would think I'd quit smoking or something, though there were similarities: both would have been leeching money without giving me much in return. With the latest price hike, Netflix is set to cost almost as much per year as Crunchyroll, Funimation and Hidive combined, and I wasn't using it as much as any one of those.
I'll probably just treat it like Disney+ from now on; subscribe for a month or two per year to catch up, then cancel again.

the grid view layout is pretty nice to have
my only complaint is the new item listing page, i have to scroll down to see the product information whereas on the previous layout it was all in 1 screen atleast for me
edit: don't know if it's just me or a browser/addon issue but did they remove the ability to filter in searches?

Think that is what I will probably do with those streaming websites. Subscribe for a month or two to watch the programs which look interesting before cancelling.
I'm toying with cancelling Amazon prime for a similar reason, a couple of the programs I was watching have either ended, disappeared or been shifted to include adverts (which doesn't work with my slightly old Smart TV).

There was much less (items) on each page so had to click through each page, maybe 10 per page. Every one gonna have some preference of how it is all veiwed and its pretty common to have lot of items per page with most layout..
But yeah grid for me is fine (over list view), if I wan tmore info I just middle click on said item to open a new tab.
I don't rememeber filter function all that well, I think it was there but never gave me the result I wanted so stopped using it (but maybe I remembering something else)

Hello. How’s 2022 treating you, AUKN? First off I’d like to apologise to anyone who mentioned/messaged me in the last six months and received no response, I’ve had a bit of a time of it but that’s not really any excuse for ignoring/ghosting which is a habit I really need to break. But I also needed to spend time on myself, and it’s probably a good thing I can return to posting in a sane (as I’ll ever be) and reasonable(ish) manner rather than subjecting you to the miserable, angry thoughts that have occupied my mind recently. But this time it wouldn’t have been in a fun way like it used to be. Anyway, I’m still alive and I hope everyone I like posting with here is too.

I assume this lightened the mood, for a bit:
