Banned for thinking it was me... t'was her husband, who is away on business a lot and couldn't afford to pay a gatekeeper. Sort of like when King Arthur went away to war and put one on Guinivere, leaving Lancelot behind to protect the realm... and his queen. As Arthur was about to leave the castle he gave Lancelot the key for safe keeping, just in case he lost it on the battlefield. Anyway, after about 15 minutes Lancelot was on his trusty steed and was galloping at full t

[quote who="Jafo" reply="34" id="3841903"] Russia might be able to slant reality at home but the 'soldiers on the ground' know what's going on...and clearly their heart really isn't in it.

This war has gone on far too long and Russia [Pootin] is the one who believes that most, which is why he and his generals are resorting to dirty tactics to beat the Ukrainians into submission. God forbid they resort to chemical weapons to so-say end this never-should-have-started-war a lot sooner. That would be a travesty against the brave Ukrainians the world could never ever ignore. I sure as hell it don't happen, but Pootin is as mad as a hatter and as unpredictable as th

I had ideas that I'd boost the graphics capability on my Threadripper rig, but when I saw that any kind of an upgrade on what I already have would cost $AU$1200 +, that was the end of that. To get what I really wanted would have been AU$1500 +, so I'm going have to make do with my RTX260. Anyone else think prices are too steep?

[quote who="naroon1" reply="21" id="3840020"] I now feel a lot better as a military man to finally see the creation of "An International Brigade" a volunteer force made up of many Nationalities who will make there way to Poland then cross the border, i am personally aware of several of these guys who have already left.

Banned for it's really Pootin, but he changed it so as not to cause such a big stink. Thing is, Pootin is the biggest, worst stinker on the planet and should be banned.... sent off-world to some derelict asteroid heading to another galaxy.

I read not long ago that Russia is willing to hold peace talks with Ukraine... but in Belarus where they hold ground and staged the Northern part of the invasion. President Zelensky, however, has rejected peace talks in this location and has offered to do so in Poland or another neutral location. I can see that, why would President Zelensky offer himself up to the Russians in hostile territory? For mine, though, Russia is facing greater resistance and logistic difficulties

Given Putin's continued push into the ukraine, I do not believe the economic sanctions are causing him to rethink his intentions. Those sanctions may prove to be effective over time, but by then the Ukraine will have already fallen and become a puppet state of Russia. Furthermore, China is an ally of Putin's and there will be no economic sanctions between them, just trade as usual, if not an increased trade due to Russia's economy being strangled by the West. Sadly for the

I think the title [and sub-title] pretty much explains it....and BTW, this is not a political post, but rather a sad look at world events. I have been following the news on events regarding Russia's dealings with the Ukraine and it has me quite worried that a full scale invasion will trigger WWIII... and then there's the lunatic in the East showing aggression to Taiwan and other neighbours in Asia. Frankly, these are not the best of times to be alive, what with these two crack
