  1. Which is what it was all about...
  2. Tell that to the 1.4 million Indians living in the UK (not including people who are of partial Indian heritage). There is a reason why London is having a reputation the best Indian curry in the world
  3. I loved my Blood Axe clan in the old Epic40k. Who cares what the other clans thinks, humies got the right idea with the camouflage stuff Evil Sunz were my second choice for favourites, they really do go faster. If not, add more red paint.
  4. May be old news, but my inner tinfoil hat guy wonders if it entirely coincidental that the Chinese government has a biological warfare research center in Wuhan? Someone forgot to put the lid on a specimen jar? Sold test animals to the local food market? http://english.whiov.cas.cn/News/Events/201502/t20150203_135923.html Edit: I don't care who gets the movie rights as long as Milla Jovovich is in it
  5. Meh... now I suddenly miss the 80's... again...
  6. Personal favourite is the C64 Comic Bakery loading music (yes, playing music while waiting for cassette based games to load into your computer was a thing in the 80's). Instant Remedy Remix:
  7. For the Radiohead fans out there....
  8. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2020/02/fighting-rages-northwest-syria-turkish-troops-killed-200220131908647.html tl;dr; version, Turkish artillery started the fighting, paving the way for a rebel assault that broke through the Syrian lines in two places, Russian airplanes and Syrian army struck back. "The UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights war monitor said at least 11 pro-government fighters and 14 on the pro-Turkey side were killed along with the two Turkish troops."
  9. I seriously hate this forums quoting software
  10. Honest Government Ads agrees.... Obama was not born in the US Not that Australia has been much better in dealing with island nations...
  11. Double post... yay me. A bit busy these days, arranging removal company, cleaners, doing packing etc. Almost forgot I need a new place to live too, so I better get back to that. Yeah, details... I guess you get a bit jaded when you move internationally/interstate (in this case the latter) every other year or so
  12. Excellent choice in music Could I also recommend: (Flood II is quite appropriate too)
  13. I was watching a few Danish movies the last week or two. I managed to dig out some English subtitled trailers for some of them: This one is even dubbed in English: A prequel to a movie. Sadly, the first one is much, much better, but I couldn't find English subtitled versions of the trail ("In China they eat dogs") Warning, Danes like their humour dark, like pitch black dark. Danish Noir is a real thing.
  14. Australian Economy 101
  15. 30 years of software engineering / development, I can relate
  16. Exploring the new areas in Guild Wars 2, flying around Bjoras Marches, once homeland of the Norn, now occupied by Jormag and it's corrupted Icebrood minions. Exploring the mountains from dragon back, blizzard incoming soon: Taking in the scenery:
  17. How do you think we ended up with 5 (five!) fingers, the design was for 4
  18. Who cares about primaries? Iran's worst nightmare, Paul for President (too many beers at work on a Friday afternoon does that to you)
  19. ...or it could be sheer coincidence. If you ask 10000 people to predict the outcome of an election, using different models. Some might get the outcome right (seriously, it's a 50/50 chance even if doing a random guess), even if their model is flawed. The litmus test is, can they get it consistently right? I was more impressed by Paul the Octopus who got all of his soccer match predictions for Germany in the FIFA 2010 World Cup right, to the point where the Russian mafia offered half a million USD for him (no kidding) Television even started showing his predictions on live TV, so convinced were they that he would get the outcomes right. Unfortunately for Paul, he predicted that Germany would lose to Spain. "The prediction led to German fans calling for Paul to be eaten. In response, the Spanish Prime Minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero offered to send Paul official state protection, and the Industry Minister Miguel Sebastian called for Paul to be given safe haven in Spain" Who needs complicated mathematical models? All you need is a psychic octopus Edit: "Paul's notoriety attracted criticism from the President of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who accused him of being a symbol of Western decadence and decay." Paul, a threat to the Iranian regime: Edit2: Paul according to Iran:
  20. Honest Government Ads... slightly addictive. What's not to love about East Timor? Except the truth of course (when you're Australian). A bit of dirt from the down under side of the world. Mind you, they not only take shots at the Australian government, they got some good videos that puts the Indonesia and the US on display too.
  21. Theme song from a Danish animated movie: Ronal the Barbarian. Not a movie for chilcdren!
  22. Oldies but goodies. They just don't make Ozzy Osbourne songs like they used to anymore...
  23. The CIA are probably pissed off over the Chinese stealing their proprietary backdoor software IP
  24. Hey. watch who you call stupid! I wouldn't want to miss out on the countless thousands hours of fun that games like Jagged Alliance 2 and X-Com 3 gave me (and still give me) for some hollow, dull game play with shiny packaging
  25. Taking the piss on Scott Morrison and The Liberal Party Warning, lots of profanity inside the video
