I don't know if anyone will see this, or needs to see this, but I've had a few requests through Google Drive over the past couple of weeks for edit access to my old X-Tension trading guide zip file (which I think also includes the old FAQ I used to manage). These could well be bots phishing for data...

Still the occasional lurk here from me. I think my contributions now are only in topics like this one. Nice to see an old face (muzzle?).

Dickie last week, and now Motty.

I don't know how well he was known across the world, but in the UK, he was the voice of football (for my generation at least).

We've lost many friends from these forums before, but this is the first I can recall where it wasn't from choice (theirs, or the moderators). That is sad. As we pull back from ourselves, we see (or imagine) the impact of the situation on you and your nearest and dearest. And that is sad. But as we p...

Paul, I don't feel I have the right words, so please imagine I'm typing exactly what you want to hear from me. A lack of words doesn't mean I'm not hoping everything goes well for you - I'm very much hoping it does.

As women generally don't like facial hair, I thought I would join the club.

I'm trans

Big trans hugs! (or not, if you prefer another kind of solidarity)

I'm told the same as you've been - it gets better and eventually becomes a non-issue. I hope that's your experience.

I had one in April; Came here via my bookmarks and all seemed fine, though I took the opportunity to strengthen my password. I assumed it was something to do with the new forum software and since no-one else was saying anything, I didn't mention it.

Niki Lauda R.I.P. Ditto Of less fame, but some note; Nan Winton, the first woman to read the news on the BBC, (and only one for the following 15 years!) passed away earlier this month, it has been announced. If anyone wants reminding of the levels of prejudice women faced in decades gone, here's a ...

I think Egosoft probably fall into the 'squeezed middle' discussed in this piece: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-47634263. Personally, I don't think things would get quite as extreme as this. I can see it being moderately successful, but ultimately not to the extent it utterly changes the way...

Congrats on getting what you want! I recall in my early days on the forums someone having sharing stories of buying a house in Scotland with sealed bids - in my mind, either you or Oldman. Have I been here to read of your purchase and your paying off the mortgage? (I've clearly been here long enough...

Portal. The game, and the portals within them. Basically, you could see and walk from one part of the level to another. In that case, they were parts of a continuous level design, but there's nothing stopping you having two disconnected (other than the TARDIS door/portal) areas in the same level spa...

Trump cannot be indicted while he is still the president of the United States of America, his problem arises when he is no longer the president of the United States of America. Even then he may be pardoned for any and all crimes that he has committed in the past, just like Tricky Dicky was, that wi...

You probably won't recognise the name, but if you've watched the Tour de France with English commentary in the past 30 years, you'd probably recognise the voice Paul Sherwen has died. All my thoughts are coming through in his voice.

This just in: Bethesda to face class-action lawsuit for not fulfilling Fallout 76 refund requests Shocking! o.0 I'm not shocked. It's a pretty common tactic for (US particularly) law firms to put out press releases saying they're investigating bringing this or that class-action suit, to see how muc...

Firefly book alert, just came out and was on their facebook

If only someone hadn't locked this topic.

I'm not an angler, but John Wilson was such an engaging presenter that I was a regular watcher of his show Go Fishing.

Gone (fishing), but not forgotten.
