As the title says. I looked up a few reviews, all seemingly posted before the episode even aired which seemed to praise it (which made me suspicious, plus one was actually on dave's site). I haven't seen the first episode but saw about a minute of it with kryten and rimmer, apart from chris barrie seemingly aged quite a bit, his voice was changing randomly (nothing like rimmer's character), kryten's costume looked incredibly tacky and the way he was acting was also, completely out of character. If I'm honest, it seemed like complete garbage, so I'm open to what everyone that saw it (or parts of it) thought of it?

Hey n_k i saw the same trailer too and thought it looked tacky and even posted i probably will not enjoy it we'll im just about to find out for myself after ive posted this and made a brew! I would post what i think about it, but ive been off my tv, movies and everything else infact so probably best to try it for yourself or wait till someone else replies, here is hte link im using <Snipped> i will suggest that if you dont have one installed allready to install an adblocker as i believe the site throws a few at you i get no ads but then i have blockers on.

Anyway time to make that brew hope you enjoy/get a decent review.

Removed link.

I thought it was pretty good. Big improvement over that last short series they did.

Also felt the episode got better as it went on - felt stale initially. If they can carry on improving then I think it'll be a winner.

    • This machine could very well be a second gaming PC for their living room as a console experience. So we would have to assume their main PC exists as well; With that said, I have 10gb home network with a 2.5gigabit internet connection here so we tend to have more than enough speed to download games. However, we can't make use of the 10gb LAN using Steam's built in transfer tool because it always compresses transfers and that slows the transfer down to well below a standard gigabit port speeds, sometimes as slow as 200-300Mb/s transfers. While that's probably still faster than most internet connections anyway, if they'd fix the LAN transfer issue it'd be upto x5 faster even on a gigabit LAN, than simply dropping a 2.5gbe port on there with hopes of a few people having fast internet connections. There are solutions, work arounds, like using LANCache if you run a NAS... or simply copying the files over manually using a network share.
    • Samsung announces ultra-fast UFS 5.0 storage to supercharge mobile AI by Paul Hill Local AI models tend to run a lot more slowly than cloud services like Claude and Gemini; however, Samsung has just announced that it has developed its UFS 5.0 solution, which increases data transfer to speeds of 10.8GB/s, enabling faster storage and processing in mobile memory that has the potential to provide more optimal local AI experiences. Commenting on this development, Jangseok Choi, head of Memory Product Planning at Samsung Electronics, said: If you’ve tried local AI, you’ll know it can be quite slow, especially if using the larger parameter models. By developing this new solution, Samsung says that storage is evolving from just storing data to a core piece of infrastructure that supports AI computation, too. The Korean company said that UFS 5.0 integrates the latest embedded memory interface standard from JEDEC and achieves up to 10.8 gigabytes per second (GB/s) transfer speeds. Regarding write speeds, Samsung UFS 5.0 can reach 9.5 GB/s. Both the read and write speeds are twice as fast as those of the previous UFS 4.1 standard. Aside from being ideal for local AI, Samsung’s UFS 5.0 is more power efficient by 40% compared to UFS 4.1. Samsung achieved this by implementing innovations such as clock gating and multi-voltage technologies. UFS 5.0 is also ultra-compact at just 7.5mm x 13mm x 0.9mm; that is 16.7% smaller than UFS 4.1. The company said it will be bringing it to multiple devices in the future, including mobile, wearable, and extended reality.
    • A bit like the steamdeck, this probably isn't for you.
    • Gamers Nexus already did their review, and building your own will be faster and cheaper, so not very convincing.
    • They've told outlets who got review units that it isn't. Partially because they believe that contributes to closed ecosystems. GamersNexus also believes this is because Valve's fighting a monopolistic practices lawsuit in Europe right now. They've also never subsidized any of their past hardware efforts and well, they definitely aren't subsidizing the Steam Deck right now.
