I haven't played a dice game in such a long time but yahtzee was a game I used to really enjoy especially with friends. We used to have a ton of fun together playing that. I have heard of Dice with Buddies but have not played it. I may have to try it out as I have started playing more mobile games just recently so always looking for more.

I don't have any specific fitness tracker on my phone but it does have a built in fitness tracker with the health app that I have on my phone and one of the features it has is to track how many steps you make each day. I find this useful if I am honest so that I can try and get my 10,000 steps in on the day if I am feeling up to it and I can keep track of that with my phone. Usually most phones have a built in health app that have a lot of good features for fitness.

Does anybody save their old iPhone (s) ?
Shortie replied to melanie_marie27's topic in Technology & Gadgets
I have many old iPhones that we have kept that either myself or my kids no longer use as we have upgraded to a newer phone but I always keep them regardless as you never know when you may need them. It was lucky as my youngest his phone packed up a few weeks before Christmas and even though he was getting a new phone for Christmas, he was able to go back to one of the old iPhones for those few weeks so he still had a phone that worked. -
How entertainment affects your pets
Shortie replied to Reality vs Adventure's topic in Technology & Gadgets
Wow, seems like it can be difficult when you play video games for sure. Is your conure a pet you have had since it being born or did it have previous owners? Sometimes with animals they may react to something after they have had something happen previously. My mums cat is a rescue cat and she used to panic, run and hide but always be watching my brothers feet when he walked through the house, my mum later found out the previous owners had abused her and the one abusing her was tall like my brother so she instantly thought he would do the same thing. -
I used to do that when I was younger but not too much. Nowadays though if I wanted to I wouldn't be able to manage to much due to my health issues, having a hernia and also suffering fibromyalgia. I do try to stay active though by walking a lot.

This is the first time I am hearing of this game. Was it a really popular game? Doesn't seem to be one that was really out there it seems with me not hearing about it. It does sound interesting though with the telekinetic powers & abilities instead of guns, especially since most games now tend to use things like guns.

The James Bond themes are really good I will admit. I don't think there is a single James Bond theme that I can say I dislike but if I were to choose a favorite one it would have to be Goldfinger and also Diamonds Are Forever by Dame Shirley Bassey.

When someone asks me what song I remember from my childhood the first song that comes to mind is a song I used to absolutely love as a kid and because I loved the song so much my Mum actually bought me the single on vinyl for my birthday. The song was I Should Be So Lucky by Kylie Minogue

I feel like much of the music I like now is music that I grew up with and I still listen to it to this day but I do have music that I got into as I got older such as Country music and also KPOP as well that I now listen to which has just broadened my listening to music that bit further. I still listen to artists like Barry Manilow, The Carpenters, Elvis Presley, Gene Pitney, Beatles and many more that I grew up listening to.

I have honestly never understood why people need to have their music so loud in the car that everyone can hear it. The whole point of you listening to music in your car is so you can hear it, it's something for you and the passengers in your car. It is also a huge distraction I feel as well to the driver to have the music really loud not only on keeping an eye on the road but also for things like hearing and being aware of emergency vehicles as well as you usually hear those before you see the lights or the vehicle.

When it comes to music I always listen to music either through Spotify or YouTube Music depending on which subscription I have at the time. I like to listen to music with earbuds when possible so that I can shut out other sounds and concentrate. When it comes to the radio I don't always listen to the radio and the one time I tend to listen to it a lot is around Christmas time when a radio station called Magic does their Magic Christmas which is non-stop Christmas music from the 27th November to the 28th December.

I am quite a shy and quiet person in real life so I would think that if I had a sound for my personality it would probably be a calming sound such a leaves in the wind or a river flowing or something along those lines. I definitely wouldn't expect my personality sound to be something really loud and energetic.

Out of all the movies I have seen, the Harry Potter movies would have to be the one type of music from a movie that I love. Can never tire of Harry Potter at all and the music always hits different compared to other movies and their music.

At the school I went to they had drama but we were never offered any kind of film class, no. Even with drama we never really did anything that would have helped us get into any kind of acting at all which is a shame as I knew many people who would have loved to be actors or actresses in school at the time.

What popular TV shows or Movies have you never seen?
Shortie replied to reecedouglas1's topic in Movies & TV
As I am not much of a TV show or movie watcher like I used to be there are quite a few TV shows at least that I can think of that I have never seen and they are Game of Thrones Criminal Minds Rick and Morty Squid Game The Crown Just to name a few. -
I have watched horror movies in the past but in all honesty, they are not something that I watch regularly as I tend to get too scared by them. I have watched ones like Saw, Stephen Kings IT, Exorcist, and Carrie that I can remember off the top of my head. I do feel though that horror movies are not what they used to be years ago, they seem a lot more toned down now.

I have seen some anime myself but I can't say it's something I tend to watch a lot of as it's not something that fully interests me. My son does watch quite a bit of anime though and he seems to really enjoy it and does get talking to me about it sometimes.

So many people seem to love Wednesday and I have seen so many clips around the internet of it that I have watched and I will admit, I am quite eager to see it myself but not having a Netflix subscription at the moment, I have not been able to. I am eager to watch it though so hopefully I will be able to soon.
-
Yeah I'm not sure about this movie. I enjoy the games but this does not look like a movie that I would be able to sit and watch. I feel like a lot of movies like this that are from games either work or they do not and in some cases they try it in hopes it will bring some money in but it is never as good as many will think it may be. This will probably be a movie I will skip.

What are the most disturbing movies you have watched?
Shortie replied to Kane99's topic in Movies & TV
It's not too often I watch horror movies myself as I am not a huge fan of them being they scare me LOL but I have seen a few and the most disturbing ones I have seen are the Saw movies which are ones I have seen and really wished I hadn't seen. -

The future of technology and its impact on society
Shortie replied to aerodynamik's topic in Technology & Gadgets
I have to agree with Killamch89. Technology will continue to progress and I can't imagine what state technology will be in in say 5 years time but I can more than likely imagine that it will make the users of the technology more of a slave to it. We are already pretty much a slave to technology how it is now so with technology getting better and giving us more ways to do stuff using the technology, it will only make people use it more and more. -
I am someone who understands why people do use clickbait titles as even though it's not advised it does get people the views but it does annoy me a lot when they do it. Especially when they are misleading and you waste your time watching a video thinking you may find out something to not find out anything. One person I remember that used a lot of click baiting to get views to his channel but nothing ever happened in his videos that he had mentioned in the title was AliA.

How much space is left on your consoles/HD's?
Shortie replied to aerodynamik's topic in Technology & Gadgets
At the moment on my Xbox One X I have 719,4 GB of storage left but the Xbox was recently reset due to issues I was having so I only have a few games on it that I have played at the moment and I have been adding them as I have been playing them. On my phone I have used 80.51 GB or 128GB. I did recently remove some games I no longer play but I was at max before I did that. -
Hotmail or Gmail? Which one do you prefer?
Shortie replied to The Blackangel's topic in Technology & Gadgets
I have had my Hotmail address since around 2004/2005 and I will be honest, that used to be my most preferred email service. Once gmail was released and I made an account with them for my emails, I found them to be more convenient over Hotmail when I started using them and now I pretty much use Gmail for everything but I do still have access to my Hotmail account due to me using it for my Xbox Account but that never really gets used for anything aside from gaming related emails for my Xbox account.
