Morning Chumbles, morning all. Having now seen the address label it's no wonder FedEx had bother. Those krazee krauts... The board is built. I've tried two different keycap sets so far but I think I need a set with shine through legends as my eyesight. Anyway. Set one:   Set two (currently on)  |

Nice looking keyboard Crank. Are you now all set to become an FPS god?
I have man flu. Feeling rotten.

Hello,
Watched Thor Ragnarok last night. I actually quite liked it.
BOTW: found the master sword, but don't have enough hearts to get it.
End of post.

Are you now all set to become an FPS god? I'm about 35 yrs too late unless they start a seniors tour. |

We have Disney Plus again and have started watching all the Marvel films in the order they should be watched in. Therefore we started with the first Captain America film last night, my god I forgot how awful that film was. There's no final boss battle so to speak, Smit just accidentally blows himself up. The whole thing is just very drab, like those shit X Men films.

Watch "Summer of Soul" - tremendous stuff. Sly & the Family Stone are amazing.
{Edit}That was aimed at baby - but if you've got Disney+ go for it.

I did have Sheep2 down as the 'boxer most likely to distil a complex and dangerous situation down to a mere banalities.
I thought you would struggle with anything more than a 1 line executive summary. I see I misunderstimated your stupidity.

I don't think I'll ever watch any of them again, apart from possibly the first Guardians of the Galaxy. |

Not so good for playing The Division.
You press W, Ctrl, space to walk forward and crouch behind something and you end up sinking shipping in the mid Atlantic. There's enough produce not arriving already.
Also I love how you include a picture of an enigma. None of us have ever seen one.

I don't think you can underestimate the knowledge of some on here.
The knowledge levels of IT oriented librarians are probably higher than average.
Chumbles probably learned his IT on an Enigma machine or possibly a Colossus.

Morning scum on the run!
Sweet keyboards crankers. I've many a time been tempted to dip a hoof into the water, but the custom keycap sets costing approximately £5000 per key put me off.
What a weekend - deployed chemical weapons on a big spoder, got sunburnt sitting in a park, dealings with agents of estate, train journeys, the full nine yards. And of course...
Games! Went back to the Last of Us 2 for the first time in Yonkers. Its good when you don't really have to do anything, but the combat bits are just a pain. Moribund. Also smashed up a Rathalos in Monster Hunter Rise, and realised that the mad lads and ladies have put Rathalos *post credits* in a Monster Hunter game. I'm not even in high rank yet. Madness.

I have started The Forgotten City.
It is some sort of Roman thing, developed from a Skyrim mod.
I only played few minutes last night, but it looks really intriguing.
I expect it would be right up Scamander's alley.

Any predictions for the cricket? 200 odd is gettable but depends on which england decide to come out. Might be a problem if they can't get the last two quickly timing wise.

Chumbles probably learned his IT on an Enigma machine or possibly a Colossus. Coding the diacritics to interpret MARC records for custom built terminals for Automated Library Systems - it wasn't my job, but I was the only guy who had any clue what a MARC record was so got lumbered. Cutting edge technology! We rejoiced when we could manufacture our own midframe machines - even more so when the main system disc pack 'tumble dryers' were replaced by £460 64mb winchesters. Disc packs were still used though ... This is a 300mb disc pack and I used to have to drive around the country collecting these for customer security copies
And this is a 'tumble drier' |
