I agree with both Odd and Inky to be honest, but I had a fun time with DAI after not caring about 60% of the collectibles.
One thing that stuck with me is how good the characterisations were, with characters ACTUALLY having a sexual preference than everyone being bi in the DA2.
Also had a good laugh with people getting pissed at Sera not being a moe potential love interest for men, but instead a weird lesbian.

Not that I don't love(d) some Bioware characters and world-building. Mass Effect 1 and 2 built a universe.

[…]With this setup in place, BioWare quietly shows you how to be terrible at your job–and hilariously, doesn’t punish you for it. In Dragon Age: Inquisition, you’re a scumbag. I mean: you’re the reason HR departments exist. (Hell, I promoted my HR adjunct, Leliana, just because she didn’t ride my case. I felt I had to force the game to make SOME nod to management realities.)
Your first strike is hitting on your employees without consequence. By and large, all sexual advances are initiated by you, the boss. You are blissfully unaware of the power inequality. It’s okay; the game doesn’t ask you to worry. You have the loyalty and command of the finest soldiers, spies, and functionaries of two major nations, and a few from outlier lands as well. You sit atop a fragile Jenga tower of employee trust. And if you bang them? The game only rewards you for it.
Or you play favorites. You neglect folks in critical roles and lavish rewards on your friends. I went through the whole game never talking to Leliana or Cullen more than once–they even remarked on it, so the game has mechanical awareness–and yet, there were no actual repercussions. […]
Worth a read for sure.

This tweet made me so happy yesterday.
It should have made me angry and sad, because this absolute clown and tragic anti-juventino is pretty much the face of italian sports jounalism abroad. But it's also the perfect example to show people when you're trying to explain how the sports media scene works in Italy, starting with Gazzetta, of which Tancredi Palmeri of 138k Twitter followers is part of. They have absolutely no fucking shame. They are the original fake news-ers and post-truth-ers.

I love the gameplay ideas in divinity : OS but the setting and world are as boring as they get for RPGs. But I'm probably alone on that, I thought dragon age was generic in a bad way as well
Dragon Age world is pretty generic fantasy, yes. I didn't mind that much.
I don't think you are alone when it comes to Divinity. Gave it an honest try but I didn't like its visuals or story, and I felt the gameplay encourages you to be very creative in combat, which I just couldn't do so I wasn't having fun.

I think it's coming out on PC as well. Not that a high end PC should really be necessary to run it. It's not a bad looking game but there's very little fancy work going on.
Never heard this before :lol. Ruud, what a lad. Makes you appreciate how special people like Fergie and Wenger are/were when squads are turning on Mourinho and Ranieri after a year, and these guys have done it for 20/25.
Got an interview for that job I mentioned a while back this morning. Nerves kicking in now.

Spurs European campaign this season was a thing of beauty.
Not shocked or bothered about the Leicester business, last season was just a perfect storm of everything coming together not really a masterclass of management, been truly rancid this season manager has to pay the price.

Stormzys album, fucking hell, really really good let's see how it ages before I pass judgement. But yeah colour me a fan, probably the most rounded grime artist we have.
edit: good luck!!!

By FortuneFaded Go To PostLeicester deleted the tweet from a couple of weeks ago about their unwavering support for Ranieri.
Well that tweet was a red flag for everybody. These are the mechanisms of the business everywhere.
By Elchele Go To Postif that's actually Mou writing… wow. I hope he gets sacked too
Why? I think he's sincere. He had exactly the same happen to him a year ago.
By DerZuhälter Go To PostWhy? I think he's sincere. He had exactly the same happen to him a year ago.He got fired for being shit at his job. I don't see why that looks like a betrayal to most here
What makes the fireing of Ranieri even more stupid is that he just came back with a good result away to Sevilla....

Dillinger also announced for Copenhell. What a time to be alive. One of the few festivals it's truly great to see them at, considering they don't mind stage invasions, crowd surfing and so on.
Good luck n8 dawg.

Both had bad seasons, before bringing the title to the club. Something the majority of the teams in the premier league failed to do so.

By Punished Go To PostBought my belfast ticket this morning. Reading about TDEP on wiki, I didn't know about the Reading shit incident. Blimey
While they are still quite wild live (and the best current band I've seen live still), it's not really like back then, where it would be full on riots after shows at times, with everything at the venues destroyed. That poop incident at Reading was all triggered by a lot of the people there, bottling them and just not being pleased with Dillinger that early, while waiting for Puddle of Mudd hahahaha. Had someone try to sue the singer for public indecency law and be banned from the UK. :lol
There is a few videos of them from that show, but none with the poop incident.
As you can see... They were fucking pissed. First real time they were on a proper tour in Europe, and thinking it probably wouldn't last very long, decided to at least make it memorable. They cut the sound of the show at one point as well, to tell them to calm down now or it would end. That is where he shit on stage shortly after hahah. They were extremely one note back then, just crazy fast song all the time. It had its charm, but they have become so much varied by now... and less likely to poop on you.
By Frustrated_me Go To PostHoly fuck at the Cloudflare data leak… Jesus.
Just reading this... Hahaha. It should surprise no one at this point though, that even the big players consistently fucks up in this field. So all about having your own security in place, rather than trust them.
By n8 dogg Go To PostI Bayern'd it lads
Your old one is a permanent one though right? So can always stay with that and wait for a better chance again.
By n8 dogg Go To PostI Bayern'd it ladsYou abused an old french man?
By n8 dogg Go To Postm8 bayern are winning the league
I thought Bayern'd it meant having all the chances, but still failing horribly, just to see Bosingwa and Torres win it.
Congrats

The examples we're finding are so bad, I cancelled some weekend plans to go into the office on Sunday to help build some tools to cleanup. I've informed cloudflare what I'm working on. I'm finding private messages from major dating sites, full messages from a well-known chat service, online password manager data, frames from adult video sites, hotel bookings. We're talking full https requests, client IP addresses, full responses, cookies, passwords, keys, data, everything.

It's the same as with Chelsea and Mou. It sucks and I hate the players who were clearly being cunts for it, but... When the situation comes down to this, it's reasonable for the board to sack the manager.
I understand why he went. Tbh, we have known full well for 20 years Ranieri is no managerial genius :lol
Just a shame to see it end like that.

This is why you need to fuck off your problem players before the rot sets in, Fergie style.

Chelsea should and had lots of chances.
Not sure Leicester could really manage to do this though, especially after winning premier league.
By n8 dogg Go To PostDid you see what I posted earlier? Never knew RVN did that :lolbest part is RVN acknowledges he had been a cunt in the past and properly apologised to Fergie.
What a hero.
