  1. Never did get the point of New Year's Eve stuff. Not sure what to do tonight, need to clean the dryer and bathroom so maybe that
  2. Canadians are wanking themselves over this on news sites here, rather funny that. Wonder what type of gun she had. http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2014/12/31/the-inside-story-of-how-an-idaho-toddler-shot-his-mom-at-wal-mart/ Guess there was no safety.
  3. Shame I don't have more USB 3.0 ports. Need to move 2 TB...this will take a while. Ah well, gives me an excuse to go do chores
  4. Who said it was entertaining ?
  5. Took this a couple of weeks ago outside work.
  6. Watching files transfer to my new external drive.
  7. Well, not accounting for humidity
  8. A fun game of EU4 now. I thought I was ok as Russia, what with Finland being my ally to the north and guarding there and with Lithuania being calmed by my allies Poland and Austria behind them. So I went to beat up Asians and get their land when things unravelled - first, Poland decides to start about 3 major wars dragging me in (I didn't want to lose them as an ally) and then finally Ottomans invade. Hooray for defensive ideas though, in the end I managed to make the Ottomans bleed with attrition, smashed their big stack with mine and got Austria to help. They went from 400k manpower at the start to about 12k in the end. Didn't gain any land, but bloodying their nose like that was fun.
  9. Wasn't Ukraine inching towards NATO before all of this ? NATO has been moving East of late as well, and given the alliance's original purpose being a threat to Russia, it does make sense for Russia to see then that way.
  10. So apparently, surprisingly, this movie is awful ?
  11. Baked a chocolate cake, not too bad for my first cake.
  12. Indeed, first they fiddle with East Ukraine, next they will have tanks on the Channel.
  13. Ah, physics.
  14. Hope you all have a good Christmas even if it just a day off for you.
  15. http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/video/2014/dec/24/cctv-footage-antonio-martin-gun-police-missouri-video Should be pretty open and shut, heh, right, should. Also rather odd, the St Louis County Police Chief is a Colonel, didn't know cops in the US used Army ranks that high.
  16. Well, apparently loyalty to your mates is to trump all and that's the higher ups problem to deal with units rife with scum cops. Rather amusing when I recall cops campaigns to end cultures where "snitching" is bad, at least here but the Blue Mafia culture is pretty strong. How is the cop 'ratting' the other one by reporting everything accurately and not covering up at all ? Cops aren't really supposed to beat the crap out of you once subdued (as you are giving an example of brutality). If anything does look fishy, ideally it would be looked at and not taken as gospel truth as a Brother in Blue said it. It's not really that complex to see you, if you know of wrongdoing and cover it up or keep quiet, as just as bad as the person doing it.
  17. So, you're okay with cops keeping silent or actively assisting in covering up the abuses of another cop out of a sense of loyalty ? I suppose they do have multiple loyalties and some are prioritized over others - but it seems some of them have that queue messed up.
  18. Well, that is kind of true - if you're a good cop but yet don't report bad cops being bad...what good are you, exactly ? I recently picked up 'Cling together, Swing together' as an expression, suits this situation.
  19. Happy Birthday Shady. Downtown here is deserted, seems all the smart people took today off. Still working here, though I am just listening to music and staring at the ceiling until 4 pm.
  20. Needs more bikini
  21. i ve been asking this question since i was in university but where do you people find the money for rigs like that? i work a full time job and i can barely scrounge up money for moderate upgrades every now and then... this one around my parts would cost 3 months worth of pay. inb4 credit card... i'd rather keep the bank's hands out of my wallet Easy. Have no life.
