    What would a third world war really look like?

    They'd all be put up against a wall for treason. I think looting during war time is still a capital offense here. As in the Military Police will shoot you on sight.

    What would a third world war really look like?

    Especially here. I just don't see where we would get that "Blitz Spirit" from. There's no sign that everyone would band together and get through it, I can only see mass looting and martial law with the way people are now.

    What would a third world war really look like?

    I don't think either Russia or the US would truly launch a nuclear strike. They would both be keen on de-escalation. The aim here is to break the Russian economy. Russia will go bankrupt before the US does

    What would a third world war really look like?

    Not in Britain. We can't produce enough food to carry the population here and we are dependent on imported food. We would have to drastically alter our eating habits, we would probably all have to become vegetarian overnight as the land used for farming animals must be turned over to plant...

    Are you a dirty minger?

    I can't even go to the shower to have a cheeky "think". Quite often the wife will burst in to use the toilet whilst I'm deep in "thought" and I quickly have to turn around and pretend I'm washing my nether regions. I should invest in frosted glass.

    Skyrim remastered free for pc if you own skyrim already

    @Sc00p007 but the danger is that it cannibalises the market. If their first thought is to maximize profits rather than to make compelling games in VR then it is going to stifle the platform. More people will be put off of VR because of it. Releasing the game at a reasonable price would foster...

    Advice on pc upgrade gaming

    Upgrading to a newer i5 8600k or Ryzen R5 will give you a 6 core processor and that will be much more useful in the coming years for gaming. Obviously this will require a new motherboard and new DDR4 memory to go with it and it is not cheap these days. You will see much bigger gains from...

    Man ‘team-killed and virtually 'teabagged' female journalist during shocking in-game rampage

    He's trying to get ahead of the problem before it comes to light. Having a woman take offence at something you say or do can be the death of your career. By putting his version of events out first he is "establishing the facts" and making it difficult for her to gain traction. That's...

    Man ‘team-killed and virtually 'teabagged' female journalist during shocking in-game rampage

    Video gaming is done. It got pozzed ages ago. All the edgy kids are attending secret training camps to hone their survival and murdering skills for the upcoming culture wars. I had a great time with the lads last weekend, we learned to tie knots out of reeds, dig a fire pit and put tractor...

    Screaming child quandary

    Don't forget the nagging nines and the squabbling sevens. Honestly the amount of lip that comes from my 9 year old is astonishing. I think it's partly because she hangs around with older kids at her swimming club and some of that teenage attitude is rubbing off on her. She has an answer to...

    Overclockers bundle

    Depends what it is binned for. Over 5GHz the 8700k does get mighty hot so they probably want to cover their own behinds and make sure they have over specced.

    Skyrim remastered free for pc if you own skyrim already

    Greed. They already set a precedent with the special edition version that people double dipped on so they know they can do it. Payday 2 has full VR support too and they aren't asking for full price again. Granted, Skyrim has worked in the touch controllers and you can wave your hands around...

    Skyrim remastered free for pc if you own skyrim already

    If the VR update was around £15 - £20 I would have no problem paying for it seeing as I already own the standard and Enhanced version of the game anyway. It's this kind of thing that will damage VR uptake. It's looking like everybody who will ever buy a VR headset has already bought one. They...

    Why do that when @Rifte will buy remaster after remaster after remaster? *Edited :D

    Screaming child quandary

    What did us with our first child was allowing visitors to come round and pick her up from her cot to give her a cuddle. Everyone and their aunty wants to come round and see the adorable new baby but none of them will be willing to pitch in later that evening when they've disturbed the baby's...

    Do it now. She's started the ball rolling so make the complaint yourself. Slash her car tyres too

    Screaming child quandary

    Conventional thinking these days is that the little girl is probably confused and believes she is a boy. Put her on hormone therapy right away.

    Do I wait for The new Ryzen CPUs

    If it's only 11 days away then absolutely wait it out. I'd be prepared to wait for a month or 2 if it was that close to a new release. It makes sense because we will get to see what kind of real world improvements the new Ryzen chips bring. As well as that I would not be surprised if Intel...

    Screaming child quandary

    It took my first daughter until the age of 5 to get her to sleep through a full night. We would get screaming abdabs if we put her down and then left the room before she was completely asleep. I remember having to crawl out of the room and creep down the stairs so that I didn't step on a creaky...

    Screaming child quandary

    I would have been very close to giving them a completely different reason to call the police, if they were physically capable after the fact though. Either that or flip it around on them and call them out on how insensitive they are to a child with autism. That would get them scurrying away.
