re: DVDs and Behind The Scenes
The bluray of Doctor Who series 12 is a really big disappointment to me, because of this.
• There's commentary on the first 3 episodes, and nothing on the 8 others.
• There's a "closer look" for each episode, which is a 5 minute thing which mostly is just clips from the episode and the main cast explaining the narrative, with about 30 seconds total of actual behind the scenes stuff.
• Absolutely nothing else.
DVDs and Behind The Scenes
One of the major disappointments of streaming services taking over is the huge reduction in quality of the Behind the Scenes stuff that's bundled with DVD/blu-ray releases nowadays.
It used to be that, if you bought a DVD of a tv series, you'd get:
• audio commentaries on every episode
• behind the scenes on set footage
• discussions with crew and cast
• vfx breakdowns
• creature/set/costume design bits
But now, you get almost none of that.

@catdraiochta hello!
@softgoat (but for the most part, you're just going to get some in-game slowness at worst - you're not going to do damage to your hardware, afaik)
@softgoat it depends on the game - if the game required a lot of loading stuff from the hard drive (e.g. an open world game, or something with a lot of different models and textures), then there would be an amount of stress put on the HDD.
But if it didn't require much loading from the hard-drive (e.g. a procedurally generated game), then it would be fine.
