I've had three shots of Pfizer. Same with my girlfriend. No reactions at all. -
The TV and Streaming Thread: Now up for syndication...
Hiro Protagonist replied to Amentep's topic in Way Off-Topic
The Silent Sea. Everything was going so well for the first seven episodes up until the final episode (ep. 8). I guess they wrote themselves in a corner as they threw the science out the window. Overall I still liked it. -
Haven't been to the cinemas in years and not intending to go back any time soon. Easier to watch (the latest) movies at home. I also have a 100 Mbps internet connection so no problem downloading or streaming stuff.

At the very start when the truck is leaving with the cargo through the gate...

I thought Army of the Dead was a good movie but didn't realise it was 2 ½ hrs long. Could have cut half an hour off quite easily. There doesn't appear to be anyone to reign Snyder in with the length of his movies.

This is personal. Now I'm angry. Neeson fills a niche of good action movies. Good but not great. Unlike Nic Cage, Bruce Willis and other over the hill ex stars, Neeson movies are still usually decent. Looking forward to this.

This actually looks good.

I felt it was more of a 3 ½ hr movie (if you exclude the 15 min epilogue) and that it could've been cut down to about 3 hrs. So I could see this as a 3 hr cinema release. Overall, it was miles ahead of Whedon's version.

Snyder cut. If they ran the slow motion scenes at normal speed, it'd be a 90 minute movie.

It wasn't just the media that Facebook blocked. FB blocked Government websites, various State Government Health Departments (during a pandemic), the Bureau of Meteorology, Local businesses including law firms, Support pages for various people like victims of domestic abuse and so on. Facebook went mental and FB had to re-instate some of these pages. Facebook reinstating health and safety pages but government says damage to reputation has been done. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-02-18/facebook-credibility-brought-into-question-health-emergency-news/13166318

If you didn't spend the money on back up generators, satellite dish for communications, built a fireplace, chopped wood and prepped for food for months on end, then it's your own damn fault. Personal responsibility folks.

Some YouTube comments. Texans are now learning that water can be a solid. Knowledge is powerful. Republicans have always wanted America to return to the glory days of the 1800s. Congrats, objective achieved Q: What did Texas use before candles? A: Electricity

Facebook appears to have banned it's own page. LOL. I just checked and it's true. Bwahahaha.

If you're getting your news from Facebook then you're doing it wrong. This is a good thing. In reality, it's a case of Facebook having a tantrum and the Australian Government isn't budging one inch. But it is funny to see Facebook cancel a country and wipe out everything.
-
Facebook just cancelled Australia globally with any and ALL news from Australia regardless of what that 'news' may be. Whether it be blogs, government agencies - EVERYTHING. LMAO.

Monster Hunter with Milla Jovovich. Diabolical.

Been doing quite a bit of research. The solar panel company that we're going with was just here running through the numbers. We didn't need a big inverter system and we don't have a lot of roof space so went with what we have. It's a $5000 system and will pay itself off in 3 1/2 years. We'll be going ahead and saving 75% off our electricity costs. Will be good to pay around $100 per quarter (approx $30 per month) instead of $450 per quarter for our electricity.

Overestimated and overrated are my thoughts about this project. Don’t expect anything close to being good lol

Finished watching For All Mankind. This was great. It's an alternate timeline where the Russians get to the moon first and the space race doesn't end and eventually both Americans and Russians have a moon base each. A lot of historical footage used from the likes of JFK, Nixon and Ted Kennedy. They play on how the Russians had the first man in space as well as the first woman in space. The woman aspect is well done with the Americans playing catch up. And then it turns to the race to get a base on the moon first. The science is pretty accurate, even with the ice on the moon.

Wow. I just looked at our electricity bill and for the last quarter (90 days), we used 1241.8 kWh. In two months, you would use more than what we use in a year. My gf and I often think we use too much electricity and looking at solar panels to offset our electricity.

You know you’re in trouble with COVID when you have to lift air quality restrictions to allow more cremations. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/covid-19-backlog-bodies-cremation-limits-suspended-california-air-quality-agency/

That's right. Gross government debt is forecast to hit $1.138 trillion in June 2024. Net government debt will be $966 billion. https://au.finance.yahoo.com/news/disconcerting-australias-1-trillion-debt-explosion-exposed-200033933.html But that's okay because we're having the economy tick over with $1500 per fortnight going to employees to keep them in work and $1100 per fortnight going to the unemployed. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2020/may/15/jobkeeper-payment-when-paid-eligibility-ato-tax-for-sole-traders-start-date-how-long-application-jobseeker-payments The federal government will pay eligible employers $1,500 per fortnight for each eligible worker, about 70% of the national median wage, as long as you had a turnover of less than $1bn that have lost 30% or more of their revenue compared to a comparable period the previous year (2019). Can be sole traders, full-time, part-time, or long-term casuals employed on a regular basis for longer than 12 months as at 1 March 2020. If an employee has been stood down, their employer must pay their employee, at a minimum, $1,500 per fortnight, before tax. This means that employees of businesses that shut down due to various restrictions – such as cafes, restaurants, theatres, casino workers and the like – will continue to be paid even if they are not working. ------ What we've seen is prices remain the same in supermarkets. People continue to spend money for essentials and workers continue to go on holidays throughout Australia (which helps with tourism), though most mainly stay in their own state as state borders go up and down like a yo-yo.
