He wasn't insured, they're calling him unlucky but the law is there to prevent him hitting someone else and leaving them stuck with the bill.

I'm sure he'll have some recourse against whoever sold the car. You expect at least a refund for that, it's nearly as bad as a bag's strap not lasting 3 months.

Rory McIlroy's gaff in "Belfast" up for sale.

Looks decent, would probably tolerate living there. Must be selling to fund a few more Ulster signings.

I actually used to have that patch, albeit a bit smaller, but through no actions of my own it has vanished. I don't really know how/why.

Its because you went bald

It reminds me of the atheism sub. The only group of people as obnoxious and annoying as the aggressive Christian elements are those populating the atheism sub which is essentially "You're a f*cking moron if you believe in a higher power". They turned into everything they complained about.

I had that discussion with a bunch of atheists on Facebook one day, they just couldn't get what I was saying and kept arguing that if I believed I was unevolved, an amusing insight into groupthink.

That was significantly worse than I imagined it could be.

I'm guessing ulnar and radius, and that clearly wasn't a greenstick fracture, so metalware required. Savage.

That's reminds me of that scene from The Fly...

Ah it's 7 or 8 hours to Chicago, you can just sleep on the flight.

All the reviews say it's the best of the three sequels.

I can't say I'm surprised in the slightest. I saw an ad for it and it revealed the entire plot. I'd say if you want to see dinosaurs, mindless action and a few quips out of Chris Pratt; its the film for you.

Picked up a Nexus Shield TV instead of the Razer Forge... Nvidia's Grid service is forkin amazing! Does all the GPU grunt work in "the cloud" and feed the info down to the android set top box allowing you to play games on your TV as if it was through a high end console/PC. Great device.

How does it handle the latency? I've never used one but in my head I can't work out how they would be able to get around an issue like the speed of light.

I assume they've some caching going on client-side. I was playing on a pretty poor WiFi connection and it only had a small glitch once every 15 seconds or so. I bought it mainly for media stream, but I can see me using it for gaming a lot, if first impressions are anything to go by!

It's a popcorn movie, entertaining action scenes, check your brain at the door. But the plot is full of holes, writing is poor and you don't care whether anyone lives or dies.

Might be the best sequel for some but I wouldn't consider that much praise. Not in the same league as the original whatsoever.

That's interesting, it looks pretty nice as well, I might end up giving in and buying one...

Looks absolutely woeful. CGI is muck and the story looks atrocious. Like, I know that's what you expect, but they had the ability to do anything with it and totally took what was wrong with all the sequels and looks like they amped it up.

Tame raptors? :rolleyes:
