State of the Game

Good also. Somehow the less potato was in the snack, the better it tasted.

Prawn cocktail Skips were somehow a "thing" back in my school in the late 80s. We were all poor as dirt, so if someone had a bag it somehow made them posh and exotic. Rest of us sitting around with our 5p bags of Taytos, while LORD FAUNTELROY OVER THERE HAS HIS 12P BAG OF SKIPS.

That's the Brits confirmed at it again then.

Aren't they always?

You got it, my friend!

It's like building a new rig that really only needs 550W and plopping an 850W fully modular Corsair in there instead because, why the hell not?

Or taking a look at the family car and deciding that what it REALLY needs is a 4.8L V8.

Bliss. Pure bliss!

cars and equine sports... you can never have too many horse power!

In my school the Dark Lord of Snacks was Salt and Vinegar Squares, or Salt and Shake.

I prefer Seasonic but

seasonic forever. best manufacturer warranty in the business. extremely high quality components.

Once you go seasonic...you never buy anything else unless it's not in their product line.

I also used to like the Spicy Tomato Snaps - I remember the advert with Harry H Corbett 'Snaps - Only 3p', although I'm old enough to remember when they were 2 1/2p

I can remember buying my first Beano for 5p.

Sure, but I would add a SuperCharger to this pretty small V8
Whining is a nice side effect too, you won't drive any* pedestrian over in such car - what makes this mod very environment friendly.

Actually environmental friendly would be to hit the pedestrian not to miss them.
Think about all that saved CO2.
That's why electro cars are better for the environment.

Electro cars?

Agree with everything except the last.

In order for the electric car to actually definitively end the CO2 pollution of the pedestrian, it would first have to accelerate for approximately 45 minutes, thus giving the pedestrian plenty of time to get out of the way.

I can remember buying my first Beano for 5p.

Oooh, that's got me thining - 2000AD - was about 8-10p I think. It also had a game printed on the back cover of several episodes.

with psu's... it's important to check the breakdown of amps for the different voltage rails rather than just focussing on the total power.
Especially with high end GPU's and cpu's.

You can easily tax some PSU's in one rail and have a lot of wattage totally unused in others.

But it's silent and once sped up you can hit multiple pedestrians at once.

I think tesla model S' has a dragster mode of 0-60 in 2 seconds (with the right rubber).

It definitely gets points for the silent ninja effect, that much is true!

I'm making a nice Korma later. Bring in the artisan beers from down the road and bosh!

Thanks, I came to conclusion that pumping my bad first impression has served it's purpose.
So I switched to an average guy, but per contrast to my previous signals, it will be received as something surprisingly positive.
You know, the usual manipulations of new environment, I found this "fall down to bounce up higher" technique more efficient then trying to build the final image from the beginning.

I'm obviously kidding, and have no idea what it even should mean...

I'm glad you said that last bit... You had me stumped there!
TBH, I've changed my avatar around a bit too. But I mostly don't give a wet kipper for it either...
Edit- So I use to to Bash now

I'm in - where are we going.
