I think you can watch it on you phone, on the link that I provided. Tablet will be better than a phone for a bigger screen.

I would be super excited if that was a new addition to Super Smash Brothers Ultimate.

I hope its not Hearthstone, I refuse to play pay to win and I hate card games. I know Dioblo is on switch and Overwatch is too.

I would be interested in a Warcraft platform game version. I’ll look up shadow legends I don’t know what game that is.

i used to operate one of those machines.
i’ve got the borked knee to prove it :flushed:

it seems technology hasn’t changed much when it comes to working in a spinning mill.

i only worked there for about a year, the people were great, the work wasn’t too bad… but i had no idea that the demands on the body would last a life time!

looking at some of the modern upgrades to the machines, it seems they’ve changed the “knee stop” to a much less demanding hand operated switch :slight_smile:

“What is that?”

when the machine needs threading, or when a strand breaks, you need to stop the bobbin from spinning to thread it.

there is a pole at the base of the machine.

you put your foot on the pole, then push up against a stopper with your knee, which puts a brake on the bobbin you need to thread.

if you look at the length of the machines in the picture, there’s a lot of little strings which can break.
usually it’s one person to a machine, the machines have 2 sides.

when an entire machine needs threading, everyone leaves their machines to help get the fresh one started
