  1. Learning a second language is supposed to be good for brain plasticity
  2. Metro Exodus is on sale if you want to try it. https://www.gog.com/en/game/metro_exodus
  3. Drowning pool - Bodies I like to listen to this while doing flower arranging Yeah just kidding...Ikebana is not on my hobbies list, but I see people doing it at the community hall I go to each week for Japanese lessons...very pretty.
  4. Some more info. Lab tour EDIT: TLDR Not yet viable for gaming laptops. Next generation possibly. (few years)
  5. Not really serious...I just find EVERYTHING to be fascinating, especially things I have no understanding about. But yes I was also trying to lighten the mood with @ryan clown picture
  6. To be totally truthful I do not understand bears. I'm Australian and whilst there are plenty of critters who want to kill you we have nothing like a bear. Pigs, dogs, big Kangaroos, spiders, scorpions, jellyfish, snakes, lizards even sharks. But a bear to me is just an alien creature. I did watch a while ago Grizzly Man from 2005. I am sorry to offend those that are offended BUT....Him and Steve Irwin got what they deserved. Don't play with dangerous animals kids. Spiderman was a fluke shot.
  7. So on the recommendation of a random internet stranger who said "If you like The Last of Us you will love Station Eleven! So of course I totally believed the stranger and........ So far I'm only up to episode 7 (10 episodes in season 1). I'm still just not sure if I like or hate it There is a LOT of time shift and 1899 stuff happening. The story line in this is a bit thin at the start, though the time shift tries to fill the gaps in later episodes. The characters are also a bit "who TF does that" their reactions to an end of the world event don't seem plausible (but then I've never experienced one myself so who am I to say). I mean the reason I loved The Last of US is as Ed Wood was fond of quoting "The suspension of disbelief" (I already knew of parasitic organisms that control their host). The characters are so "normal", so 'guy/girl next door" types. Final opinion has yet to be determined for Station Eleven
  8. Damn....I never even thought to check on my bookmark security! I didn't realise it was a thing. I ended up using the in built sync on brave browser (thanks to @serpro69 for the heads up)
  9. @ryan What the hell is that? Scary clown Here is a nice clown for you
  10. Foo Fighters - Best of you (to think that if Nirvana was still around the world may have been ignorant of Dave Grohl's voice )
  11. I almost cry watching this beautiful child! Knowing that some time after puberty she will develop fangs, claws and a cold heart 😈
  12. I loved the game so much I bought a real true actual hard copy book! (Metro 2033) and a couple of ebooks.
  13. I think your 100% right and a course would solve most of my issues. Good advice! I'm watching this guy's videos on youtube because 1. I'm in Japan and attending a course presented in Japanese for linux just adds so much more complexity and 2. I'm a computer geek, why wouldn't I
  14. Just Chillin with Disco Revival KC and the Sunshine band - Get down Tonight
  15. I don't think anyone here is a true Ahole....some heated discussions do happen from time to time (this is a hobby for passionate people) but nothing we couldn't agree to disagree and shake hands on (or just ignore). I have used other forums and got sick of the vitriol, political infighting or agenda's some people had (including NBR at times). But as you have already learnt, treat people as you would like to be treated. I like NBT and the people here and will continue to frequent as long as I'm welcome. So yes I'm with you! Let's make it good
  16. You are correct! My only defense is that I didn't swear...I posted an offensive picture...."American beer" is foul language in anyone's world
  17. Been a while since I did powder coating Wrong part....hate those ebay sellers, jerk you around with their BS just trying to scam for a buck.
  18. @Maxware79 has some nice Alienware paint jobs! He might have a clue?!?!
  19. Say no to drugs.
  20. I am sad My Alienware 17 (R1 Ranger) is slowly dying. For about 2 years now the right side USB ports just havent worked, no voltage at all. I tried a new board (usb, rj45 daughter board) but it didn't resolve the issue. Tonight the left side front usb port stopped recognising USB sticks and portable drives (in windows and BIOS). It will still power the laptop cooler which also has a usb mouse attached. Left side rear port works fine. My Father gave me this pc new shortly before he died, so the sentimental value is great. Schwepps
  21. Command line I'm a WIMP!!! Windows Icons Menus Pulldowns
  22. Holy crappola batman....thats a scary lookin person ... bug eyes
  23. I think it was ZorinOS 16.1 base, I tried on my Panasonic Toughbook cf-31 but nothing I could do to make it recognize the touchpad. Nothing in Zorin's forums or Ubuntu help pages would make it go....I finally gave up and installed windows 7
  24. @StripeySnake G'day mate. I just watched this video and thought this is something very interesting (how it might work for SFF)...positive air pressure and flow.
