  1. https://youtu.be/d5VOssysTog It probably took 20 tries for me to get that far. It doesn't look like it but the game controls are really hard to get use to. There is a link to the kickstarter in my video. With instructions on how to play the demo. Game is set for release some time this year. For now you can wish list it on Steam.
  2. Good to know. I'd like to hear more people answer the same question though.
  3. So by self definition. Can we assume that if someone identifies with being of a certain gender. That genitalia, chromosomes or any other biological criteria should be considered irrelevant?
  4. I want to start off slowly and work our way towards a common understanding before the pitchforks come out. How do we establish someones gender. I'm not asking how many genders there are. Whether you think there are 2 or 8 it really irrelevant at this point but we'll get to that. My first question is simple. How do we establish someones gender? If we meet certain biological criteria is our gender inherently imposed upon us? Or is gender self defined? Free from these constraints whether they are biological anomalies or not?
  5. I'm suddenly intrigued by what you have to say about it then. I'm actually being sincere here. No sarcasm intended at all. Please. Enlighten me.
  6. I think that's where Arya got the line she gave Sansa about sticking them with the pointy bit. Its the same thing John told her back then. And if you caught it you'd flash back over all those episodes. Realise just how much she has grown as a character and everything that has led her to that point.
  7. I'm left wondering what happened to Elleria. Can we assume her dead beside her daughterShe was alive at the end of last season. Ceisei is also far too twisted to simply kill her and be done with it. If the guards were ordered to keep the lights on so she could watch her daughter die. There's a slim chance she might still be alive.
  8. Seeing him crack like that was heartbreaking. Especially after promising Missandei that he would be back to scissor her on the beach. But not as heartbreaking as watching the Dothraki get wiped. Remember what King Robert said? Only a fool would face the Dothraki in an open field. I guess Robert never considered the dead.
  9. Its big though. Dale hasn't been in downhill for years
  10. Case and point for each bike I guess. I'm usually between 35 and 50 depending on bike. I also prefer a more centered position and flatter bars. But these are personal choices. My focus is always on how these changes affect the way the bike feels while descending though and any compromises I have to make (if any) will be for the climbs.
  11. I was so confused by this. I thought the point of having different sized drops was to work on the skills to do the top one. That's what I did. I thought it was a great idea to have them lined up next to each other. Get a feel for them and nail the big one when you're keen. I liked achieving that after some practice. The ramp ruins it.
  12. Shoot these guys an email. I was looking for some really hard to find screws for a custom computer build. I also needed a part of the screws to be threadless. Much to my surprise they had exactly what I needed. If they don't. I'm pretty sure they can point you in the right direction. Especially since they're not in your area and these things are pretty hard to get right without a sample.
  13. For those unaware of the film genius that is Neil Breen. Prepare to be amazed. https://youtu.be/aFgQ34b96_U https://youtu.be/GQ44FLJA4Js Trailers for 2 of the 5 films witten, produced, directed by and starring Neil Breen himself. Double Down and Fateful Findings. Both are absolute masterpieces. I've seen both movies and have the rest lined up. I can assure you. These films are legit. They are not a parody of any kind. Neil Breen has gathered a cult following over the last decade or so. His movies have the budget of a Somalian cigarette vendor. And the talent of Marelize on a bicycle. As a result he has raised funds via a crowdfunding campaign for new movies. The increased budget really shows in his latest title below. Twisted Pair. I can't wait to see it https://youtu.be/S2BfsbZOuTI
  14. Alpha's was rubbish imo. And in hindsight. So was the attempt to revive Heroes. What I like about Umbrella is how the characters are defined by their personalities and relationships rather than their powers.
  15. Umbrella is one of those shows where the juvenile presentation just seems fitting. Its not pg13 by any means though. At least not enough to be discouraging. It doesn't unfold in any real meaningful or thought provoking way either and there are also plot holes if you're the nitpick type. BUT. Its a great story. One I really enjoyed watching unravel. Especially on the character development side of things.
  16. https://youtu.be/XSPBLWtcTqs I'm not sure if its local. But its based in Jozi with a local cast. It looks like a Saffa show that's actually worth watching. Some gritty, supernatural, action, thriller type show. I really hope it doesn't disappoint.

  18. I still think they ugly. But I do appreciate the madness. Especially that 29er super enduro. We need guys to keep pushing boundries. Especially at a time where so many bikes feel like they've have exhausted the neo geo status quo. Sensibly opting to explore and/or refine other areas. Like GG and the 4in1 bike. Refreshing and thought provoking while Pole just looks eccentric.
  19. To answer your question though. Mondraker was probably the cut-off.
  20. Its not a made up word I swear!
  21. It was only a matter of time. We plateaued the long, low, slack routine ages ago. It won't be long before we regress to the forgotten wisdom of 26 inch wheels.
  22. Just tell Bae its for her.
  23. Haven't surfed the reserve in years. I always preferred Diaz beach though. Beautiful setting. A jacking westerly at Platboom and I knew I would have my ass handed to me. But that little cove at Diaz would usually be a bit calmer and still shoot some punchy barrels.
  24. I know someone who plays both on PC. Steering setup and everything. Proper petrol head games those. I never could wrap my head around the complexity of simulation styled racing games. I mean I would love to but much of it just wooshes over my head. I play forza on xbox though. Which admittedly is a simpler arcade style of racing. Car customization is pretty much the 'plug and play' variety or 'tuning for dummies.' Been a while though. Horizon 4 was the reason I fell in love with retro Italian rally cars. The Delta, the Stratos and my personal favourite, Lancia's 82 Stradale 037 http://supercars.net.s3.amazonaws.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/12194526/1098383-1536.jpg
  25. The only show that really matters. Everything else is just to pass time while we wait. https://youtu.be/LMeqY7ogdF8 Started this last night. First impressions were meh...try hards. But not enough to discourage me from the rest just yet. I always brushed off Dark Horse Comics as a brand where half the content wasn't even theirs. Over the years they've made comic book adaptations of movies, series, games and books. Umbrella Academy is however one of their few original publications. With a plot that's not too unimaginative I reckon there's potentially a good story to tell here. It will have to do though. Since Netflix cancelled everything Marvel. Well there is DC's Titans too. If you're into that sorta thing.
