    Kick Ass 2 is really good fun. Don't know why people are down on it (Union J product placement aside) :P

    Are the end credits long or did you stick around for the after credits scene?

    Humble Bundle is crazy at the moment.

    https://www.humblebundle.com/

    Mirrors Edge, Burnout Paradise, Medal of Honor, Dead Space 1 & 3 and Crysis 2 for however much you want to pay.

    Pay more than $4.50 and get Battlefield 3 and The Sims 3 thrown in as well. :eek:

    Yeah it's mad. Even though I have most across ps3 and pc, I may as well get this for the others.

    I actually didn't. Nowadays, I find it's easier to wait till I get home to see what it was. Reading it though, doesn't sound like it was much other than a set up to let them make KA3.

    I joined as well. I won it last year (though if SlickRic had been in it that would not have been the case).

    clare. Cork is the last team I want to win the AI, and I cant see limerick beating cork again after the munster final. Clare could hurl cork off the field if they turn up though, should they get past limerick.

    Limerick for the win! Born there though like most people who say that Rugby was always sport no.1 for me and ill admit never being too involved in the hurling though I do enjoy it when I see it. My folks are heading down to Kilkee this weekend, the place is essentially Limerick in Clare at times so they should have some good craic there i'd say

    Im pretty happy with my broadband speeds I got this week. Downloaded a 15gb game in under 10 mins. Going from 500kbs downloads to this was crazy.

    Oh yeah? damn 100kb a sec must have been torture :p

    Pity 50mb broadband in Ireland is so damn expensive. Thank god I live in a shared house where we all need speedy broadband.

    guess I was lucky as only now that I have such a good connection would I look back and think of it as such though that was only an average speed it could go up to around 200-300 at the best of times ha!

    50mbs a sec though... average movie downloaded in 14seconds, holy fup!

    It's a shame it's generally only urban areas like the cities that get the good speeds, there's sod all choices out in the countryside.

    2905199078.png

    It says 1.56 MB, but I've never gotten that when downloading anything.

    maybe thats the peek it could physically do or something, I just tried a different program to test mine as I had just been going by what it said when I was downloading since moving and this other test says 6.2mbs/s which is around 3 times faster than i've seen thus far

    and now I tried another one http://www.testmyspeed.com/ and got 16.7mb/s so I dunno what to think

    To get your actual download speed in megabytes, divide by 8 what the mb/s speed on speed test gives you.

    The mb/s on speedtest is megabit, not megabyte.

    I myself am going Luimneach. Wouldn't begrudge Clare the win but I just don't think they'd bayte Cork.

    Diabhal just doesn't want another odd Davey Fitz pre match promo where he channels his inner Mankind circa 1997 cutting promos in a Boiler room.

    I hate Manager Davey. Have all the time in the world for penalty-taking Davey. Saw him in a Clare county final years ago and he ate the umpires for 60 minutes.

    Not a nice lad by all accounts the umpires are fortunate he doesn't carry around that snow shovel he used to call a hurley anymore.

    Google went down for 2 minutes and Internet traffic went down 40%! If you want a cyber attack, take out Google it seems.

    Decent. They've a top player in Eanna Burke. Cooney is very good too from the club games I've seen him play. Dunno anything about Limerick and if they've a nice team or not.
