  1. Quality match. Was in slow motion at the end they were that exhausted.
  2. Ridiculous pace
  3. Literally clenched reading this.
  4. Where do you think the energy to manufacture hydrogen is produced?
  5. One of the few funny things Frankie Boyle ever said was "Recent surveys show 3 out of 10 men have a problem with premature ejaculation. The rest just didn't really think it was a problem"
  6. Lasted longer than I thought! Appreciate the effort in giving it a go though.
  7. And let's them say "well we did warn you.." pure tokenistic gesture to absolve themselves of the forthcoming civilian massacre.
  8. Probably could have stopped after barsteward tbh.
  9. F**king grim. Glad Channel 4 news are showing this and not just tallys on the screen. Such a hard watch and a reminder of the actual cost of these actions.
  10. Just made me think of the Yorkshire Lancashire duel in Phoenix Nights
  11. It's hard to say objectively if its easy having done it for 25 or so years, but I don't think people should see it as some insurmountable challenge. It's a great skills to have as if something breaks, or you wish to upgrade a single component, you'll be able to do that easily without upgrading the whole box. What do you need and in what order... Pick a processor first. Each processor had it's own "socket" design which then dictates the type of motherboard you need. For AMD, these are called AM3, AM4 etc. and for Intel they'll be LGA1151 etc. Know what you're using your PC for. If it's a work station/email job, focus on low power efficient chips like Ryzen 3 or Intel i3s, if it's got gaming then the higher end ones are required (Ryzen 5 and 9 or Intel i9 etc. Have a look at the below to identify which CPU is "better" than another. Once you've got one in mind, go on YouTube and search for reviews of the exact CPU. Gamers Nexus is great as they have conclusions saying "it's great or buy this other one as it's better" https://www.cpubenchmark.net/ With CPU selected, you'll want to find a motherboard. Find a motherboard that has the corresponding socket to your processor. Motherboards are a bit of a nightmare as objectively there's not much between them. Look for features you want like on board WiFi or Bluetooth and pick one that seems reasonably priced. Again, check the reviews as some are known to over heat. One thing to also bear in mind is that motherboards come in different sizes. ATX is full size but they also make micro and mini-ATX for small form factor PCs. That is important as you'll need to make sure your case is compatible with it. RAM - RAM is easy. CPUs are quite fussy nowadays with which CPU they work well with. If you've identified a CPU you want, Google what memory works well with it and someone will have the answer. It'll either be DDR3/4 and have a corresponding frequency 3600MHz and also a timing spec 2-2-24 etc. Just find the stick for your CPU and make sure the motherboard can accept the RAM you've selected. Graphics cards depend on what you're using it for. Know the games you want to play and cross reference against gaming benchmarks sites. Depending on your monitor will dictate what GPU is worthwhile too. I can't reiterate what a ****ing con "4K gaming is". I won't sit on the fence, but anyone who games in 4k is a numpty. For PC gaming 1440p at 145hz is the sweet spot. If you have a 1440p 145Hz monitor, go on the below link to find a GPU that gives you that frame rate for games you play. Of you play Overwatch or CS, you won't need anything as powerful as someone dug into Cyberpunk for instance. All GPU are usually PCI 16x slots and are comparable to pretty much all motherboards. Hard drives. If you're motherboard accepts it, get an M.2 nvme. They're fast and use barely and juice. If not, SATA SSDs are OK. Power. Depending your CPU and GPU dictates what PSU you want. For most normal gamers 600W is more than enough. They're rated (platinum, silver or gold) depending on how consistently they deliver power. If you're not high end, this doesn't really matter. Case. Find one you like and one that comes with case fans. Case fans connect to pins on your motherboard so are dead easy to installed. Have a look at pre-built and then tinker with the parts to suit your needs. Lots of folk here are happy to help if you've got queries.
  12. I sympathise. I remember many years ago when we were disgruntled about pay, a colleague said in a union meeting "I don't need the money, I just want the fight". Some men just want to see the world burn.
  13. Clubs see it as an investment getting him on a free. Still get at least 20mil for him if he does depart. Money for old rope.
  14. Hopefully not another 20 minute video...
  15. I used to hold interviews in a box at Pride Park as the rate was less that what I was charged for internal hire of a room at my old work. Genius.
  16. Fair enough. I will say though if the media are getting into semantics about whether a baby was decapitated or "merely" had it's throat slit we've jumped the shark on that one.
  17. In the video he's literally stood next to a decapitated woman. “They killed them and cut some of their heads, it’s a dreadful thing to see,” Davidi Ben Zion, the deputy commander of Unit 71, the paratroopers who led the Israeli forces into Kfar Aza, told Reuters. “Thank God we saved many lives of many parents and children,” he said. “Unfortunately, some were burned by molotov [cocktails]. They are very aggressive, like animals.” Again, that's 2 people in the BBC article and another in Reuters saying this stuff happened.
  18. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-67065205 Jeremy Bowen was at the scene of the masscare and saw the corpses. “Mothers, fathers, babies, young families killed in their beds, in the protection room, in the dining room, in their garden,” Maj Gen Itai Veruv of the Israel Defence Forces told the BBC, as his troops searched homes for bodies of victims. “It’s not a war, it’s not a battlefield. It’s a massacre.” Direct quote from a Major General of the IDF at the scene so only way it's not true is if he and Jeremy Bowen (whom I 100% believe) are lying. Sadly a huge amount of "Citizen Journalists " on X are casting doubt against actual journalists reporting from the scene.
  19. Furious about the EU microplastic ban? #BrexitDividend
  20. They throwing bricks at Harvester?
  21. Seeing as my fellow FTers didn't do what I asked above, I've fallen into this particular hole and I'm absolutely loving it even if I am about 8 years late to the party. I've gone in on the F/A-18C as carrier ops snared me in. Even just doing take-off and landing on these things is such a challenge. I've limited combat to ground ops in the Sinai campaign (was before recent events in the region I should add). VR works very well and mapping selection to the joystick makes the "interaction" aspect work very well, much better than MSFS I feel. Level of challenge is order of magnitude higher. Although these things are reasonably easy to fly, you end up spending hours watching videos on operating radar and weapon systems which, shock, are extremely challenging to operate. I have dabbled in some PVP combat but I got absolutely mullered as I'm not comfortable operating all the sub-systems proficiently enough to not make me a sitting duck to far more abled players. I'd recommend those of us into this sort of thing to give it a dabble as they offer 2 week trials on all modules so you can have a good play with stuff for free before they snare you in.
  22. Envious you get to see it with fresh eyes. One of the great series. Pacific was ok but didn't hold a candle to BoB.
  23. They were only in their 20s. What living in Stoke does to you.
  24. It's victim blaming in it's simplist form.
