  1. Gromnir dont be too concerned with the utterances of any religious extremists, Flynn is just pandering to Christian extremists\conservatives You have no idea the number of Islamic extremist speeches I can post where they discuss " destruction of the West " and how the " great devil is the US and its Zionist allies " Its pure rhetoric and grandstanding. The US like most successful Democracies recognizes freedom of religion and until that changes you must just ignore people like Flynn and not be worried
  2. I thought this already happened years ago with all the free coffee at your work or old work ?
  3. Looks great, I know we have all discussed this before but I love my hot sauces. I normally have at least 6-10 different types in my fridge and cupboard and I am always prepared to try something new And I am always loyal to favorites like Tabasco and Louisiana really does seem to have the best variety of hot sauces in the US and you get most of the sauces below in SA https://shop.louisiana-brand.com/collections/hot-sauces
  4. You right, its not fair to say children. Its teenagers they use
  5. We could ask @HoonDing but I am worried he will give us a creepy and weird answer
  6. Yeah, he has definitely been quiet about that one ( I wonder why Gfted1 ? )
  7. Thats good news, nice one I meant to tell you , do you know all the years I have been chatting to you on this forum I never knew you were married. I cant recall you ever mentioning it? We learn new things all the time about people, thats why I appreciate forums Let me know if you want me to chat to email\chat to your brother in law about the dangers of believing in conspiracy theories...sometimes the views of an outsider can be more convincing ?
  8. But why dont they have adults as characters or at least a combination? As I mentioned I know its not some kind of weird reason and its very normal but why use children ?
  9. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/breaking-fw-de-klerk-dead-25433597 Big news for SA, FW De Klerk passed away yesterday. He was the last white president in Apartheid and he played a critical role in ensuring the relatively peaceful end to this failed and immoral system Without De Klerk we wouldnt have had our 1994 election as he represented the National Party who were running the country at the time and had implemented Apartheid in 1948 and you always need people on both sides of any conflict that are prepared to compromise and negotiate if you want to find a peaceful solution So he really mattered even though some people misunderstand what he actually did and why he did it. Was he controversial? Definitely ...but I am very grateful for what he did to contribute towards the new SA De Klerk RIP
  10. Their are several things you can criticize Biden for but I find this whole big deal about him farting to be crass and almost childish He is nearly 80 and he is the president of the most influential and important country in the world and I would just assume his detractors can do better than making a big deal about flatulence?
  11. Gorthfuscious you know the people he killed were white, so its not about racism or white supremacy the reasons for the shooting Its criminal but not necessarily about race. Also he worked in Wisconsin and apparently had some sort of business interest
  12. Dammit, okay. Because in that Elder video you posted the reviewer mentioned he has played all DS type games and he mentions Darksiders so I thought I was lucky
  13. Armistice\Remembrance day is always remembered actively by my UK family because in the UK its about the sacrifice and deaths of millions of people in the UK who died in various wars since WW1. Most of the men in my UK family attend the memorial day today and wear poppies for November. We have several grandparents and great grandparents who died in WW1&WW2 In SA we keep forgetting to attend any memorial days, if they even held and I am not sure they are, but its understandable because its not really remembered in the same way so I dont feel guilty
  14. I tend to agree, he is a very bad example to make a stand for the some on the right He sets a very low bar and he does represent " a derpy punk "
  15. I realize this latest immigration crisis is just Internet armchair politics to you and the word " troll " you think is appropriate But its about peoples lives and futures and its about resources. So no Putin is not a " troll , thats not a real word we use in geopolitics and in any RL political crisis
  16. Yes and you also have always raised how openworld, like W3, can be effectively implemented without being an " empty " experience like Mamie was concerned about I didnt realize Darksiders is considered a Dark Souls type of game ? Because I thought I had never played a Dark Souls type of game but I have played Darksiders 2 and I thought it was great ...do you think Darksiders is similar to DS?
  17. This is an interesting story Poland and the EU are 100% correct to not allow themselves to be blackmailed by Lukashenko with Russia backing, Putin plays a role as Lukashenko wouldn't still be in power as another example of a dictator and failed socialist experiment without support from Russia....but this is a Belarus primarily created issue The arrangement with Turkey is not the same as this egregious blackmail, that agreement everyone understands and supports and Turkey is getting paid to host illegal immigrants for processing and they are not just guaranteed to get citizenship in the EU. This Belarus facade is just abuse of immigrants and playing geopolitics with peoples lives And of course part of the way it is covered on certain international news channels is " what is the EU going to do about it....this is a human rights issue " and as usual the actual cause is ignored. This is a Belarus\Russia created issue, why dont human rights lawyers focus on them as a solution? For example why doesnt Russia allow these illegal immigrants into their country? Problem solved And finally as I have raised for years now when you have mass, illegal immigration to countries like the US, EU, SA and Australia you will notice the general solution from liberals and human rights lawyers is always the same and completely counterproductive...they dont want to address the source of the problem which is failed and ineffective governments that immigrants come from. No they expect countries that dont have failed leadership to absorb these citizens Its not sustainable and for many people its unacceptable and this is never going to acceptable
  18. I had no idea what you talking about initially but congratulations to you and other members on this significant day for the US Marines And thanks for your military service and commitment to making the world a better place, its appreciated like all legitimate military service. If I was living in Denver I would insist on taking you out for free drinks and dinner
  19. Very good gameplay video, this game is looking incredible I think the openworld definitely works and the guy explained how its been implemented and how exploration matters and rewards you. And some of those monsters are artistically just stunning I love that dragon in the swamp and its AI ...very clever
  20. But on a serious note, I agree that its not sustainable to avoid family and friends for 24 months or so Human beings are gregarious creatures and most of us need social interaction and the reality in all our countries is the unvaccinated are amongst our friends and sometimes our families. So like I was saying earlier all I can do is ensure I am fully vaccinated but its just not possible for me to avoid contact with people who are unvaccinated. And I mean from a work perspective and social side
  21. Day 1 purchase for sure !!!
  22. You know that saying Pidesco " many a true word is said in jest "
  23. And if the Republicans do take back control of Congress whose fault would that be ? We not going to blame Trump for that right and bemoan the state of Democracy in the USA? I find there is lots of scapegoating and finger pointing in the USA when political parties lose elections and not enough " what did we do wrong when we were in charge and how did we lose votes "
  24. Absolutely " must watch " Todd Howard video for those fans of Bethesda
  25. I have excellent news, I completed QFG4 after about 25 hours and I enjoyed it The first 2 hours were hard, I nearly quit because of the outdated graphics and basic gameplay mechanics but I persevered and I started using my imagination and the "look " icon to understand what was on the screen The game is very humorous and the writing is well done. I am going to play QFG5 now but the best part of me enjoying this type of older game is I am well on my way to now being able to play all the classic older RPG like M&M, Ultima and Wizardry and the classic Gold Box AD&D games So I feel I have made huge progress in truly embracing using imagination as one of the main reasons for gaming enjoyment
