Yay. Fixed my laptop overheating today. Think I mentioned a while back my laptop was getting nearly too hot to touch within about 5 mins of turning on, and the fan would be full blast within seconds of pressing the power button so I'd basically stopped using it. I bought some thermal paste and had to take it to bits - the video I followed and several IT pros in the comments said my laptop has some of the worst access to the cooling system of any laptop they've repaired - you have to remove the LCD screen, top plate with the touchpad, keyboard, RAM, HDDs, wireless card etc. - basically everything that's not soldered on. I've never used thermal paste before, but the old paste was all splodged out the sides, covering all sorts of connectors so I can't imagine I've done a worse job than that. It seems to have done the job so far, so fingers crossed. Guess this is all bread and butter for you guys but I hate this sort of thing so am feeling quite pleased with myself.

This is literally the only good thing about the football which is bloody on again.

If you told me even 10% of the dangleberries that voted leave had a considered opinion on the matter I wouldn't believe it and if they still hold it now, just days after the vote I would absolutely drop dead of shock. Talk about buyer's remorse you can't refund on. I don't think I'd be half as bothered about leaving if I thought it was really what the majority of people wanted and not just a knee jerk reaction to the rancid press and politics we have poisoning our lives.

He's too angry and pessimistic for me to enjoy the show. I'd watch them anyway just to keep up though as he won't be there forever.

It's quite a major addition for an amiibo to give you a sidekick. I like the idea of a wolf companion (will they try and explain why you have two links in the game?) but I wonder if it would make the game too easy - he dispatched the goblin thing without link needing to get involved And removes he challenge of hunting. I also wonder how controllable he is? I saw a come command but can you, for example stop him attacking if you are trying for a stealth attack or environmental attacks with e boulders etc he would spoil those if he barrelled in.

Hmm the post I made before my shower doesn't seem to have landed, and I can't really remember what I wrote, but it surely wasn't how happy I was with the result. I was thinking about it in the shower though and what I remember not putting was that worse than leaving (which I think is a bad decision, but who really knows how that will turn out, certainly not the politicians, nor economic prognosticators) is just that it is such a vote for negativity [...]well, I was going to carry on my thoughts here but I actually can't bear to think about it just now,it's just one more dark shadow cast over everything.

I bought BoxBoy! It got great reviews when it was released and now it's half price as the sequel is out (soon?). Also bought fast racing Neo, and boy the the videos not do it justice, it is so fast even on the first cup. I'm going to be very bad at it.

That's quite some sass, coming from sonic. Shouldn't he be commiserating since they're both shitty versions of early gen greatness. Hedgehogs in glass houses and all that.

There was an arcade aeroplane racing game called plane crazy out in 1997: I'd love a sequel to that, though I'm guessing we've missed the window somewhat there.

Never regretted a day one Sony purchase.Not saying I would have regretted a day one ps4, but I promised myself* I'd wait for the slim and now with the neo coming out I'm pleased I waited as a slim is nicer but you're not missing out and sometimes they actually remove stuff, but the neo is a different beast and I wonder how it will affect/effect people's buying habits in the future. *That was actually to clear my ps3 backlog first which had failed spectacularly.

Yay, a Nintendo fan. Are you planning to get an NX? Lots of people's enthusiasm for Nintendo seems to have ground to a halt at the Wii U. Either way, nice to see you here. Hope you like the place.

I did make a slow no knead bread that took a day to make, but didn't need half that much attention. I was lovely but I must say sourdough is my favourite. I admire your dedication, but can't say that's for me.

Time to see if any of your neighbours topless sunbathe

I will be buying the nx at launch. If it's more powerful than the Wii u I'll buy the breath of the wild console bundle, if it is less powerful (i.e. Some sort of handheld device) I'll buy the Wii u version . Either way I'll have the game and the nx come March 2017.

Not the nx version then?

I bought the humble lgbtq bundle and the comics in it are available in pdf ePub and cbz. Which format is best, and what best to read them on an iPad? is it worth downloading a cbz reader (any iPad app recommendations?) to use that format? What makes it better than PDFs/ePub? Googling just tells me it's a zip file full of jpegs in articles that are years old. I have precisely zero experience of this topic so I just want the least frustrating experience.

Take a bite of an undunked digestive, push it against the roof of your mouth and suck. Something comes out. Juice, sweet malty nectar - call it what you will - it is glorious and you should not resist. Edit: I guess dean replied too while i was writing, but I'd already put the undunked bit in my post. Dunking is an abomination. The juice sucking works best with mcvities I think they're less dry than some other brands

Shortbread is sweet over here, and is often topped with sprinkled sugar too. In fact I would say it is at the sweeter end of the plain biscuit (I.e not with chocolate, caramel, creams etc added) spectrum. I wonder if you have a different version over there or just expect biscuits/cookies to be sweeter than we do.

I'm on holiday next week with no internet and probably no phone reception. Can't decide if I'm Disappointed to miss all the zelda stuff or if I should try and avoid it completely until release. Genuinely don't know if knowing to much about a game spoils it for me or not, maybe because I don't look forward to most games? Only other thing I'll be interested in is info/release date for PS4K and how shafted I'll feel by the XO update.

What's the round thing I front of the mug? Is it sticky tape? If so it's very thin.

Yeah that's what I meant, Americans use Graham crackers, the substitute we're told to use here is digestives. So if I saw Graham cracjers in a shop I'd buy then just to see how they compare. I imagine the opposite is the case in America hence it selliing out when it's not the most exciting biscuit, though i do actually like a digestive I love the juice you can suck out of them I think it's the only biscuit you can do it with

I'd recommend the dandelion and burdock, which is my favourite pop. If you like yorkies, tme, if you ever see their raisin and biscuit version buy the lot as they are lush. My guess is the digestives run out fast is because so many recipes use them, it's the reason if have to buy Graham crackers if I ever saw them even though I know they're nothing to get excited about, would just be curious how similar they are as that's always the recommended substitute

Hamsters are nocturnal, it takes quite a lot of time and training to get them to be more active in the day, some just won't do it ever, don't know how yours normally behaves but if you gave it a shock, it may just be reverting to its more natural behaviour and hiding until tonight when it will feel safer.

I didn't remember her from the old series, the one that shocked me was the guy who manipulates computers. But to be honest I didn't even think about it because as soon as I try and work stuff like that out it just pickles my head, so... This is the guess I just came up with. Molly's age in reborn should be her age in the old series plus the time from then until Claire had the twins, plus the twins current age (15-17 maybe?) shouldn't it? That would fit anyway, so is good enough to satisfy me, though it certainly may be wrong.
