Re: Israel and Palestine

Absolute cowards openly targeting children at play.



Complete hypocrisy by the US, calling for sanctions on Iran only. FFS.

Re: Israel and Palestine

I noticed the "Cease fire now" crowd were celebrating Irans attack on Israel. Almost like they don't want a ceasefire - just the eradication of Israel and a total Islamist victory. I was not celebrating the Israeli attack on the Iranian embassy in Syria. I was not celebrating Iran's right...

Re: Israel and Palestine

From my perspective Sam is trying to have a conversation and Youssef is just repeating talking points, trying to shout down any questions. If you keep watching beyond that Youssef eventually apologizes for his behaviour (putting words into Sam’s mouth etc,,) and they eventually come to some underst...

Re: Israel and Palestine

After the first 13 minutes, it's clear that your man Sam has his mind made up and keeps asking the same questions with no regard for the answers given to him. He's a terrible listener. The answers he's getting are not taking in and fed back with more relevant questions. It's like he's on a constant ...

Re: Funk

Herbie Hancock turns 84.

Here is a track that arguably spawned the turntablism movement. Many of the most prominent DJs of the genre proclaim this track to be their 'eureka' moment. The spark that lit the fire.

Re: Tech tips, tricks and hacks

You need to be careful adding wireless devices to your WiFi network like this. They could cause excessive use on your WiFi if they have continuous activations like leaves on trees, spiders webs etc. Wireless is a shared medium, all your devices share time using the shared frequency. It's also half ...

Re: Tech tips, tricks and hacks

I got the kit with three cameras. You also get a hub. It's all on your Wi-Fi network. The hub is powered by USB but the cameras are all battery powered so are easy to install where ever you want/need them. There is an app to go with it all. The app allows you to see what the cameras see, either pre ...

Re: Annoyances & Irritations

When you hurt your back doing something mundane so you start regular stretches and being careful to look after your back, and it starts to feel better, and the very next week it goes out again. On the weekend. Very frustrating.

Re: Tech tips, tricks and hacks

I have a set of Blink cameras and have had for a few years. I recently changed Wi-Fi company and had trouble getting the hub module to connect to the new network. After about 2 hours of noodling around on Reddit and trying various settings etc I eventually just called Blink. The rep went through all...

Re: Israel and Palestine

Well, if we're to believe the line of 'this is for the security of Israel' then the US should try to avoid further conflict. Buuuut...do we really believe any of these lines?

Iran: "Call off your dogs or we go to war"
US: *checks calculations for profit* I guess it's war o'clock!"

Former Biden donor calls it out clear as day.

It's all coming out in the wash due to the World Central Kitchen backlash.
