    Go to cinema to see Mad Max: Fury Road.

    Thank me later

    I was at the cinema last night, stuck in the smallest room in the place, I thought I was going to die with the heat, there was only 2 others there and they were a few rows in front so I ended up bare feet and topless :pac:

    The guts of €40 for 2 tickets, 2 popcorn and 2 drinks. Poltergeist is sh*te if anybody was thinking of seeing it...

    We went local, our cinema has already shut down due to lack of numbers but it reopened so kind of felt obliged not to skimp. Usually bring our own stuff and just pay for tickets if it's out of town, it's the food and drink that they screw you on.

    I like a bit of gaming but I never got into watching it, I'd just turn it off to play it instead :)

    I can't even get through a 10 minute youtube video, I'd have the controller in my hand halfway through it :pac:

    Ha, I'm not that good to be doing that. I don't play any of the games they use in the competitions.

    This is more my thing, it was my first time doing that mission, I was pretty bad :pac:

    I wouldn't worry about the self awareness of your phone just yet :)
    It does look impressive in a demo but it's being asked the right questions. When the Siri demos first came out it looked like you could have a full blown conversation with it about anything.

    I'm fascinated by anything remotely AI though, watched Ex-Machina there the other night, really enjoyed that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,385 ✭✭✭✭D'Agger


    What did you guys make of Chappie? It's been slated loads but I really liked it

    That phone is bananas but, for now at least, I just type that stuff into google, fúck talking to Siri

    Haven't seen Chappie yet, the name kind of puts me off a bit tbh. I did like District 9 though so I may still check it out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,385 ✭✭✭✭D'Agger


    It's not as good as those two but it's an interesting concept and thought it was an enjoyable enough watch. The soundtrack is pretty good too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,047 ✭✭✭Unearthly


    Yeah I liked Chappie. It's IMDB rating is a better reflection than the critics rotten tomatoes score

    This chrome addon released today is great. Thought some here might like it.

    https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/3g025k/i_made_a_chrome_extension_that_lets_you_hover/

    It basically scrapes the first few lines of a player's wiki entry, along with all the info that runs down the right side of the page on wiki (position, DOB, former teams etc.). The creator said on reddit more improvements will be coming like better name recognition (it's currently case sensitive) and giving the option to remove the blue outline from names recognised.

    Works great for me on every site.

    Why does bet365 seem to pop up on every flipping stream page (and plenty of others)?

    I never get one for any other betting site.

    Don't they have something where you sign up for them and get access to live games?

    Anyone go to the Picnic? Savage as usual. In a bit of a heap tonight.

    Thought it was a bit too packed this year...if they add any more they'll kill it which would be a real pity.

    Girl Band are savage...saw them twice and went back to the tent with my ears practically bleeding they were so loud. Love them.

    Hangin' on to your hipster status by a thread I'd say

    Meanwhile, why has no one invented the "ready to walk" new pair of shoes? I'm sitting here in discomfort - but they have to be worn in :mad:

    Used to listen to Girl Band cleaning my apartment in college - you get shít done to their music! :pac:

    I never understand why pundits pick 11 players into a team that clearly wouldn't work .
    Why not just pick your top 5 or 10 players for the week?
