    Movies Rate and Discuss the Last Movie You Saw v.16

    The Man from Toronto [Netflix] 6/10 For a bit of a time pass and some lolz, Kevin Hart always delivers. This is good fun and Woody Harrelson probably does a better job than Jason Statham [originally cast in the role] wouldve imo.

    Premier League Fred 2022/23 V28 : Champions League Semi Final Second Legs- HALA MADRID Edition

    Disgrace. I stopped watching after the Man City game because I knew this game and the last were coming. Serious questions need to be asked about Arteta. I supported him since very early into his tenure, but theyve shit the bed two seasons in a row now. Whats annoying me is that Arsenal basically...

    Are you THIS kind of a gamer?

    Definitely did this with the Fallout games, and also Final Fantasy, where i never actually got around to completing 10 or 12's storylines.

    Multiplatform Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III (2023)

    Mostly for me its ok but i dont play a lot, but there are plenty of complaints of what youre describing in MW2. Theres some who feel like Activision purposely keep the netcode shit to level the playing field for 'bad players', on the assumption that if they wanted a butter smooth game they can...

    International US intelligence : Wuhan lab workers were sick in Autum 2019

    Not sure why you quote me, but to my knowledge all of the kind of work youre describing was with sars-cov recombinant viruses, because it was a main focus [along with mers-cov] of the research on coronaviruses due to the 2002/03 outbreak in humans. If they were really sick with a virus from this...

    Social Do you enjoy the Valuetainment channel?

    Hes had some good guests/episodes. The Cambridge Analytica whistleblower; the real guys portrayed in Narcos; the dopamine expert; theres also a lot of ex-mob guests who have some cool stories. He hosted some frauds during the pandemic though which turned me off. Last time i checked there was...

    International US gov. resumes funding grant to EcoHealth Alliance, same org. that supported the Wuhan lab

    Despite the clear public interest, in the light of the last/current pandemic I really wonder how fruitful this research is now, save creating new products for the pharma multinationals: Governments and private entities will continue to destroy natural habitats in regions where Sarsr-Cov are...

    Opinion Coronation thread (will it be the last coronation?)

    Away from the stolen jewels and fancy dresses, there was a rather ominous police operation taking place around this event. The police were operating a trawler net policy of arresting anything that had a whiff of discontent. I heard the account of a journalist who was standing in the vicinity of...

    International WHO officially declares Covid-19 pandemic over

    I think whats more concerning is that as technology advances, its going to get increasingly more difficult to ascertain truth from falsehood, especially so in subject matters that involve having to understand concepts that go above the head of most lay people. This -as we see novel diseases...

    Multiplatform Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III (2023)

    I hope theres enough noise to boycott this one as [as much as Activision will deny it] MW2 was meant to be a 2 year game and many people only bought it for that reason. The suspicion is that they will go heavy on remastering old maps that were meant to be in MW2. I dont know the timeline on...

    Besides Joe Rogan, who's your favorite podcasters to listen/watch?

    The Jordan Harbinger Show is really the only podcast i listen to these days. He has the variety of guests that I used to enjoy on Joe Rogan before he became insufferable. The last one I listened to was from a forest commissioner type guy in the US who works to try and tackle the apparently major...

    Opinion Coronation thread (will it be the last coronation?)

    I think William will be king and so there will be another coronation, but this one will probably be the last with the full pomp and ceremony (there was some pressure for some of it to be scaled back for Charles). I can see the monarchy lasting another 50 years due to the ages of the King and...

    International WHO officially declares Covid-19 pandemic over

    I dont disagree, but the extraordinary transfer of wealth during the pandemic and its lasting impact on the economy is not much discussed. To your point about conspiracy, we saw real conspiracy with how the pandemic funds were siphoned into friends and associates of ministers for public...

    International WHO officially declares Covid-19 pandemic over

    In the UK at least, the extraordinary amount of money that was pumped out by the government largely went to the rich & wealthy and that has factored into much of the inflationary pressures that remain today. Gary Stevenson talks about this: [timestamped]

    Economy The UK is in recession; worst fall in living standards since records began; inflation at 41year high

    I dont doubt that it could, but I sense an undertone of optimism about Labour getting back into office, and whilst it is time for the Conservatives to sit for a while (for their own good as much as for the country's) I think the bubble might burst pretty quickly. Agreed; theres a lot to do

    Economy The UK is in recession; worst fall in living standards since records began; inflation at 41year high

    Not enough politicians are talking about this. The Torys trot out the Putin and Pandemic spiel and Labour blame 13 years of Tory austerity and Brexit. I think its telling that the LibDems are bringing this up here because it seems like Labour are trying to woo the corporations to get back into...
