This no surprise to me. What saddens me is there are many books and podcasts that talk about stuff like this. Over not followed MSN for a long time.
One of my favourite books is Confessions of an economic hitman, by John Perkins, this is primarily About the US and their need to invade states by the back door after WW2, ultimately becoming the CIA and the world bank. A must read for anyone.
A brilliant book which strikes a cord with me, that i only read about 6 months ago is Operation Relentless: the hunt for the richest deadliest criminal in history, by Damian Lewis. It’s about the taking down of Viktor Bout, by the CIA(iirc), but thier investigation soon hits the buffers and blocks, when its uncovered he was funded by the US and Uk.
he could fly arms, drugs and people anywhere, and was doing it for all the big terror groups, so the CIA wanted him gone. However, because he was the best and cheapest courier, many world governments used him too for thier ‘off the books stuff’ .aswell as all the big charities.
On one flight into Afghan (when we was at war), he took aid into one area of afghan for UNICEF(or the like), they move guns to another before area for al Qaeda, then brought drugs back the other way. Fascinating read, oh he was also on the of Forbes or the like as one to watch (in the up and coming businessman).
It chimed a cord for me because his role in the Kongo, ll. ferrying troops and guns for the rebels, aid and hardware for the UN. servicing both sides.
i had no idea about the guy other than the Kongo link going in. It’s a great read and a fascinating man.
Given your input here Ed I think you 5oo would like Wormwood.
My inlaws just use my Netflix account. I only found out when I seem the kids watching it, and I asked when they got that, given it is well out of their wheel house, the MiL said “oh we had it about a year or more”, later I found out one of my kids set it up for her! Gods job I’m grandfathered in to the old original payment/muti user prices.
It’s about twice the price and more restrictive than it was when we took it out.
I always think klopp would of made a great Panzer tank commander. I can just see him stood on his tank going mental, waving his arms Attack Atack Attack.
Ultimately like them, Liverpool can’t defend either, but boy, they have the blitzkrieg part down.
Shanks would hate the game today. Far too much of a socialist. Some great interviews with him on youtube. He has that ora about him, very much like old red nose.
If you have netfix job check out a short service called Wormwood. It’s very interesting, and I’m sure you’d like it, given what you just said.
I did wonder in the game why vvd didn’t swap roles with Lovern picking big Rom up.
All they did was long balls up to Rom for him to lay not off. More Sunday league than premier ….. However our defence matched it with a good Sunday league performance.
They defended well in the second half, cutting off our narrow play.
They set up for a draw, and we should of taken it. Sadly that isn’t in our skill set.
José is lucky, as if they wouldn’t of held on and we would of got the equaliser, the fans would be happy with 32% of the ball, half the passes to liverpools, (more long balls iirc 10 v 2) with less pass accuracy and zero shots in the second half.
Saying all that, the win is the win in these games. So none of their actual miserable football matters against Liverpool city etc, but that is the reason its quiet for the other 15 home games.
Given the guy in the demo is able to push it down with his finger, imagine a child falling hand first onto one!
I could see this do something what would of workers in the 60s etc.. But in todays Health and safety blame culture. No.
Remember broken glass cemented on to the top of walls. That is actually doing a better more important job, that stopping a car, and that’s a practice long banished to the past.
The simple answer to curb barking is actually make it illegal all over the country . I think atm greater london its illegal and policed. The majority of the contrary its not. So for that alone, you can’t use spikes to stop someone not breaking a law.
Annoying as it is you cant stop or make move a car that is blocking an empty drive. I know this ad my neighbour doesn’t own a car, and had a drive fitted just to stop people parting on the road outside there property. She called the police on me to move my car. She was all smug, until they told her all they could do was ask me too.
I asked the policeman do I have to, but he did I can’t block in, which I wouldn’t. But given they don’t own a car or licence, their drive is used about 4 times a year, when there son comes.
It’s amazing they coped 60 years with a car, but only decided to put in a drive 12 after they lost there licences.
The middle is is ****** cos of us, poking our noses in in the name of “freedom”.
Russia, not the best of the places in the west, but if we didn’t keep poking the bear, he wouldn’t be growling. There is a massive anti Russia campaign been going on since Putin rightly higlighed both us and Americas was supporting an illegal uprising.
Does anyone remember when Assad and wish wife was the darlings of Hollywood, governments praising their secular state, and highlighting it as a beacon of light for the region. Then they decided to upset Saudi so the got the yanks to do their bidding.
There is an official minute of some document, iirc Dick Chainy (the vp of the time, I’m terrible with names), on record said paraphrasing , Saudi will cover the cost of getting rid of Assad. 6 months later the press propaganda wagon went into overdrive.
I don’t understand how people think our gov and the Americans are any better than any other nation state.
We are basically mushrooms. Fed shit from the square box in the corner and the red tops. Sadly most people don’t question this shit, and take it as gospel cos the bbc and the mirror said so!
And about this Russian guy, i don’t really care either way, and we will find out the truth in 40 years in some MPs biography .
Given he was locked up in Russia for a good while, there was plenty of time to ‘get rid of him’, it was probably one of the many spies he outed, but that wont stop us linking it back to the Russian state, just so its another stick to beat them with.
Our first 35mins was terrible. But credit to Jose he plunked 4 players around the base of lfc’s forward triangle player (they rotate continuously but usually ferminio typically) and nullified our front three by controlling the space he could work in. While keeping. Pace out wide.
However the second half, zero shots on our goal, and the goals you scored was route one for De Gea. Terrible defending on our part, (whats new).
I’m yet to watch it back cos I’m away atm, but i found it a decent watch, just looking at how untied set up.
Also need to look at what went on a WH yesterday. Seems to go from bad to worse.
Extremely satisfying video.
Monitor looks smart bob.
always fun when you decided to replace a component for anther to fail in the possess. Tbh it always seems to happen like that. A real pita. And most of the time it jas you chasing your tail if figure out what happened.
It had a whole boat full of bad press last year. It was more to do with how intel was licencing parts of the CPU to the user. I can’t fully recall the issues, i find pay to much attention .
Linustech tips covered it, and they are intel fans boys, and they destroyed intel 9 big time. Iirc they said you need to have to need one a lot to get one.
Funny you say hibernate, the youngest and the Wife are full of a cold, (so he wasn’t going in anyway), and i have Man flu, its much worse than the cold women get. So i seen my lad off to work and college (one of the two colleges the kids go was open).
Them i went back to bed, and slept. Which is mad as i slept for about 8 hours last night. Usually I’m lucky to 8 hours over a two day perion. Tho i fell back asleep and had mother 5.
I’m feeling a bit better. Though if i could i would sleep from October to March.
Its back , worse than last week, car totally stuck, and the schools are closed! Sock of this now.
Be careful trying out encryption tool after encryption tool on a folder .Its a sire fire way to break it.
Test one. If it failed your needs, deter the folder and the software, do a full restart .than try the next. A bit tedious i know, but you could get in some trouble otherwise.
Well probably no, the PC is probably more clever than my mind, but my gut says be gentle when plying with powerful tools.
Yes, the raf terms between the two were heavies and fairies for the avionics side of it.
He just finished last month, after 12 year, and many tours, and walked into a job in afghan for a us firm servicing Chinies for almost 3 grand a week, the raf was paying about £1800 a month. So he is happy. He starts on the 30 March. 3 months on, 2 off, so loads of good chunks of down time.
Im quite jealous tbh, but shows his hard work, and poor pay, has finally paying off for him.
Though guess which muggins has to take over the running of his 6 properties ! There will be a added fees!
I still use TrueCrypt. It may be ‘insecure’ (which isn’t true) but it’s going to keep anyone that’s wants access to my docs out. And if the gov wanted access they would be free to try crack it open if they wanted. Or give me a warrent.
Also the fact to be able to put file inside files to hide them is a must for any person traveling to America. They can make you open you PC at customs now. So if you have something as innocent as a loads of movies for the flight, could make entrance awkward if you win the search lottery.
There is now a fork of true crypt , vera crtypt iirc. However the last time i checked a lot of 3rd party houses still say TC is still deemed very safe to use. Its the way it all shut down over night was the strange bit.
I like it, it’s simple and I’ve must of been using it since 2006 or 7. Old dogs and all that….
Air tech, sounds very much like my BiLs RAF role. I think he worked on airframes, his job was servicing and refitting chinooks.
Was the helo invented when you was in bob? ? or was you still using gliders ?
Sadly bob, we don’t (or didn’t) have any women on camp, bar the NAAFI gronks.
I was worried about noise/vibration reverberating through out the radiator system. However this one is held on my powerful magnets (surprisingly strong) especially given they have 3mm rubber pads om them.
For the price its quite a good bit of kit. Im gonna get a few more. Probably monthly, to spread the cost. All the £29 woo add up. Tbh im sire you could get the exact same product for half the price from china. I may start looking, or set a reminder to.
