Re: The Room 102 thread - for things you love or just having a bloody good praise!

Fair enough. I think a tin opener should definitely last longer than that though!

Re: The Room 102 thread - for things you love or just having a bloody good praise!

Guys, are our standards lower for longevity now or something? 9 and 12 years for a tin opener and fridge respectively doesn't sound like a very long time for either...

Re: I Just Watched (Films)

Shit, thanks for the heads-up, I had no idea! Would have been a good idea to put "part 1" in the title, not sure where it was announced but I've not seen that anywhere. Yeah, I left the cinema with very mixed feelings. Hopefully being prepared for that will make the film leave a less bitter taste i...

Re: The Room 101 thread - for things you hate or just having a bloody good moan

Not to brag or anything, but I recently moved into an apartment complex here that has two large 50m pools and a few smaller ones. Wow! Where abouts is that? Bear in mind I don't even know what country you're in! :mrgreen: ;) Brilliant. :lol: I'm currently living in Singapore, so it's swimming pool ...

Re: I Just Watched (Films)

Watched the new Spider-verse film the other day. Beautiful animation, lots of cool/silly concepts, characters are very compelling. However, it went on for about 15 mins too long, and also didn't actually end. It's not really a spoiler as apparently it was announced before it came out, but I had no i...

Not to brag or anything, but I recently moved into an apartment complex here that has two large 50m pools and a few smaller ones. I get to go for a nice swim every afternoon as a break when I'm working at home. Looks like this:

Re: The 'Look What the Postman Brought Me' Thread - Technology Edition

Even my Dan A4 H2O (which is 11 L...) can fit a 3 slot card, it's crazy that there are larger cases that can't. Your case is 27 L! That said, with the new cards being so massive it is still quite limiting only being able to fit a 3 slot GPU. It means that if I want to change my 3070 to a 4080 I can ...

Hah, thankfully it's academia so no-one cares as long as you're not working in the lab. And even there it's not really a proper wet lab, so people do it anyway even though they're not supposed to...

Re: The 'Look What the Postman Brought Me' Thread - Technology Edition

Nice to see someone else join the SFF club. I built my sister's PC in the normal version of the NR200, it's a lovely little case that is just big enough at 18 L or so to not really be a hassle to build in. I built my current system last year in a Dan A4 H2O case, which is quite a bit smaller. Defini...

Re: The Room 101 thread - for things you hate or just having a bloody good moan

Thankfully there is no dress code for my job here in SG so I just wear shorts and t-shirt all of the time. Also working from home at the moment so it wouldn't matter anyway. I did once try and go to work in short and chinos but they were very quickly soaked from a short walk outside. I don't know ho...

Bloody amateurs. At the moment it doesn't go below 27C at night here. My office room is currently 29C and it's a cooler, rainy day. Trying not to use the air con as much, just a desk fan during the day.

Re: The Room 101 thread - for things you hate or just having a bloody good moan

The phone zombie thing is waaaay worse here in Singapore. Far more people (mainly younger) walking slowly through MRT stations just looking at the manga or whatever on their phone. I also notice it walking around the university that I work at - the staff and students are mainly from China, and the v...

Re: The Absolute State Of It - It's The UK Politics Thread!

Charles looked so old and frail during the coronation. I wonder how long it will be until there is another? I don't see him lasting as long as Queenie. Will as many people have an appetite for it again so soon?

Re: Dead Space Reboot

I wonder if it lets you change your key bindings. I bought this game back in the day and never played it because it pissed me off too much that I couldn't rebind WASD.
