Project Hail Mary they would've had to have worked hard to stuff up what is close to The Martian 2 and starring a popular Ryan. They've done a very acceptable job with bringing the essence of book's story over.

Rocky is a whole load of fun, The Goz sheds many manly tears and it's a good ...

Trumps problem is interceptors, or lack thereof. They literally can't keep intercepting all the cheap drones that Iran is capable of sending, so he needs an off-ramp to be able to say 'it's over, we won'.


I saw something about this I think...

Iranian drones cost like $30k each and the ...

I know it'll never happen, but I would pay to see Trump deposed or on the witness stand, under oath...

Fake news

Not true (although believable, which is the point I guess)

Trump's claim that he predicted the World Trade Centre attack a year earlier and wrote it in a book is utterly fabricated too. How much further does he have to move away from reality before being sidelined?


Is he just being used as a figurehead/battering ram by those behind him?

A helpful ...

My wife is out this evening so I'm watching War Machine on Netflix

It's like a really crap remix of Dog Soldiers, Predator, War of the Worlds, and with a sprinkling of Lord of the Rings style walking through dramatic looking scenery

It's utter rubbish

Should have just watched one of the films I ...

Cheers. The internals are of no consequence to him, he likes the look. I'll have a look, the Invicta doesn't look bad. I've got some of their watches, but the cheaper stuff was quite cheap in feel and look, but that one looks better.


It's a bit more money c£180 but the best Submariner homage I ...

Curved spring bars (and possibly not straight aligned locating holes in the lugs) could cause strap issues (edge case, but worth considering IMO)

Something I'm really enjoying at the moment is this:

Mrs mik makes a range of most excellent soups. 8-)

Yesterday’s concoction included barley, and I discovered that barley may well be the marmite of the soup world…. :?

Personally I love the texture, and the fact you kind of have to chew your soup. Others at the table were less keen, citing ...

Say what now?!

Rare earths are magnets?

And no one knows what magnets are?

But China has a monopoly on magnets?

But it would take two years to build a "magnet system"?

OK....

My primary thought on these ICE shootings is that trained Police officers the world over face far more dangerous situations than these ICE offices have, and somehow the Police don't end up shooting people in the face/10 times while they're on the ground

And especially in the US, Police are ...

Watching Legal Eagles's video on the the execution of Alex Pretti was incredibly sad. The administration seems to think they can make 1984 a reality this year.


It's fucking insane what's happening in the US

ICE is basically a nascent SS/private army, they have full permission and support from ...
