First class stamps of all 11 Time Lords - from William Hartnell and Tom Baker to David Tennant and Matt Smith - will be available from March.

The new look Tardis is better than the old one, I think most people forget that no rooms in the Tardis are permanent, they can be created and deleted. I remember that one of the original reasons to update DT's Tardis was the quality of it when filmed in HD - I actually think this new set looks cheap in the background but still way better that the last, which was basically toy land.

I don't love the new opening, but I don't hate it either. It takes quite a while for the Tardis to enter the time vortex (which seems to be fixed now, no smoke everywhere, previously it looked like someone left a smoke machine floating in it.

I love Matt, I love Oswin, and I love them together.

Yeah, I'd love a set (or three) of those stamps. It's weird as well, since I used to collect stamps back in the 90's after my father handed his collection down to me (sorta). So, yeah I'd love a set. I do wonder if US citizens will be able to get them some how.

I don't see how they can go with another female companion who has the hots for the Doctor, especially with River still in the picture. Clara obviously had naughty thoughts about the Doctor's bum.

Seriously, this. What is going on here, he's married to River now. :huh:

Even if he wasn't I'm tired of the whole Doctor's companion is his girlfriend thing. That's why I loved Donna, she wasn't interested in him.

She has the potential to steal the show a bit, her character is very entertaining and actionable. I agree though am over the whole companion/gf thing I feel like since the end of time the show has veered too much to centring around the companions, needs to get back to its roots a bit perhaps. I guess it doesn't matter though, ill still keep watching it no doubt :p

Yes and we still don't know the following:

With the first Doctor he had a "Grand Daughter"

So the next Logical Choice -- That River + Doctor = Baby who then had had Susan twist.

Though who knows if they decide to go with Doctor's Daughter (the clone) had a baby which was Susan.

Though strange enough is How can someone live multiple times?

Or is this the resurgence of "Bad Wolf?" or "THE MASTER" Who created her ??

My favorite part was the Sontaran -- So who are you being now Sherlock Holmes.?

My favorite part was the Great Intelligence. If you've been watching Who since the start (or at least, all the back episodes) you know what I mean :)

Also, that Sontaran was just awesome. Brain damaged much? lol

That is okay my Potato headed friend... as the Doctor Kisses his head.... That was priceless.

    • Linux 7.2's first release candidate gets off to a good start

      Could you come up with a slightly less depressing background for Tux instead of that gray gradient? Doesn't have to be cheerful, just less of a downer...
    • Linux 7.2's first release candidate gets off to a good start

      By zikalify · Posted

      Linux 7.2's first release candidate gets off to a good start by Paul Hill Credit: Larry Ewing It has been a few weeks since the release of Linux 7.1, and in that time, the Linux 7.2 merge window has been open, where developers can submit their features and patches ready for the upcoming release. That window is now shut, and the release candidate phase has begun so that new features can be tested and further fixes applied. According to the founder of Linux, Linus Torvalds, this week’s release candidate looks “reasonably normal”. Although we are super early in the release candidates, this is a good sign as it makes it more likely that an eighth release candidate will not be needed. Torvalds even mentioned that the update’s stats are only larger than they really are because there was another AMD header drop with a third of the patch just being AMD GPU register definitions, which aren’t big changes but make the code contributed look larger overall. In addition to this, he noted that just over half the patch is drivers, even when excluding the AMD register dump. The rest of the changes are spread out over architecture updates, tooling, documentation, and core kernel updates. In the next week, Torvalds says that he will be chilling out, taking the week “mostly off”. Despite this, he will be reading emails and keeping up with things, so if he is slow responding, now you know why. He said he is hoping for a calm week, but we will just have to see if the second release candidate is actually like that. We should expect seven or eight release candidates before Linux 7.2 is released, so expect it around the end of August. If you missed it a few weeks ago, be sure to check out our coverage of Linux 7.1's release.

      Ridiculous claim that the labor cost difference of $6000 annually would increase cost per phone by $200. The employees produce 3 phones per month or what?

      Never used the G7 Pro, but I've never had a good experience with that style of d-pad and fighting games.
