Re: Baldurs Gate 3 - Release is now 3rd August 2023

I've started playing the original (well, Enhanced Edition) for the first time in 20-odd years as part of a slow build up to getting BG3 and the game is both better and worse than I remember. Better in that I didn't die to a single wolf in the opening area like I remember doing way back when, and in ...

Re: Trump - Criminal Prosecution

Then come next Monday, then AG James will have a first come first served fire sale of his properties then!! :lol: Going to be sweet justice when next week comes. Unless his properties sell for as much or more than he claimed they were worth, in which case he could use that as new evidence to reopen...

Re: U.S. Presidential Election 2024

The American voting system just boggles my mind. In the UK(at least in the areas I've lived), every sub-sub-sub-region (call it a square mile or so) has it's own little borrowed voting centre, frequently churches, gyms, anywhere there's enough space to set up a table and couple of stands. I think th...

Re: Biden's age

From the few articles I've seen, Biden is mis-speaking on a more and more regular basis the past year or so. Not enough to cause immediate concern, but it's an indication that he get significantly worse over the next few years, which will become a major issue should he be re-elected. Trump is showin...

Under certain HABs is a line with '-', i.e '------' for example. I never would have found myself, that the...

Re: Starfield: Thoughts?

I had that happen, but the contents just got shunted to my inventory, which seeing as said contents were a whole heap of contraband... I experiment...

Re: Starfield: Thoughts?

So I have a policy of no "M" rated games in my home. How much "M" rated material have you who have played this game for a good length of time encountered? What are some examples you have seen? There's sex, but it's the 'fade to black' type. Blood, but not in any great amount (there's no dismemberme...

This is another one of those cases where pretty much every new word comes as a complete surprise as you read the headline. I know it was a serious breach of ethics and morally wrong and all that but... I am hopelessly bemused by the two words "Radioactive Chapatti's" (I'm also bemused by a quick se...

Re: Random News not worthy of own thread

In the last two millenia science has proven itself wrong more often than otherwise (flat earth, Sun orbits Earth etc). Science is not a set of facts carved in stone but a stream that flows. Science is never stopping to question science itself. As soon as this questioning itself stops, science ends ...

I've the notion now that somehow, someday, someone soon is gonna get through to him that this is what he should expect, and I reckon he will be a flight risk then. As to where he would go, well, I reckon Putin would take him and then let him spout his anti-Democrat crap to destabilise the US furthe...

Re: Starfield: Thoughts?

I’m sure there’s a few things they’re being lazy about, and 1000 planets just means 1000 celestial objects, most of which are unexplorable. But we’ll see. Either way, I’m my opinion the game definitely seems like it’s worth checking out, especially since I believe it’s going to be on Game Pass. :) ...

Trump has done a video of himself blaming the legal system and putting himself as a victim. What is more, aids close to Trump are worried that he might do a press conference after the event.
He's announced a press conference for Tuesday evening... Interesting Times.

Argentina is not happy right now as there has been an influx of pregnant Russians, around 5K going to Argentina to give birth, so their kids can get an Argentina birth certificate and passport.

So there are consequences when you tell lies to make money, just ask Alex Jones who has just learned a very costly lesson that free speech does not mean you can say whatever you want as he was fined $4.1 million yesterday, which was topped up today by another $45.2 million, meaning he was fined $49...
