  • Chernobyl was 30 years ago today

    The only Level 7 Radioactive disaster other than Fukushima in world history, hopefully there will be no more...

    I wonder how many of you know about the 1957 disaster at Mayak, Ozyorsk in Chelyabinsk Oblast in then Soviet Russia. Rated 6 on the INES, it's virutally unknown to a lot of people (probably because it happened in a closed city and was largely covered up) yet resulted in several towns and villages evacuated and close to 10,000 deaths;

    ....yeah I should've seen that coming, what a fucking non-episode...

    Spoiler I bet when Season 7 starts they'll drag it out with a flashback to an earlier event that will have some deep meaning towards who actually got smashed to death and it'll be extra long just to piss you off even more. Then when we finally find out who it is, you just shrug "eehhh" and it resumes into more filler episodes of crap until the season final where it'll probably end on another cliffhanger where fuck all happens for 99% of the episode. The fuck do I still watch this shit.......

    Islamic terrorism as the name suggests is islamic and has everything to do with religion, trying to argue otherwise is burying your head in the sand. This is not the same as saying all muslims are extremists and terrorists, which is obviously total rubbish, but there is a longstanding issue within certain branches and communities of islam. Today, islamic terrorism or jihadism is the largest terrorist ideology active globally, I can name over 30 islamist terrorist groups active as we speak, I can name less than 3 Christian ones and they are largely irrelevant in comparison. Whilst the vast majority of muslims are peaceful law abiding people, there are still significant numbers of those that for some reason act as supporters or sympathisers for extremists and terrorist organisations, a problem that isn't present within other religions. Muslims should never have to explain or take responsibility for any terrorist attacks like some people think they should, it's just asinine. I do become irritated however when following an attack and the authorities take action to follow inquiries and make arrests that there are always those who treat the situation as being about "persecution of muslims" or other such tripe. Still we should never try to turn the stakes into a war on Islam itself because that is playing into the hands of Daesh and others alike.

    An iman once said that the problem is that it is said in either the Qur'an or the Hadiths (I forget which) that the prophet said that there would come a reformer to bring islam into the new age and that whilst some embrace this, others reject it. This is Wahhabism, the ultra conservative branch of islam which the Saudis retain, promote and spread all over the world. Much of this is about countering Iran's influence on the Middle East following the revolution of 79 in a long drawn out cold war that has been playing out ever since. Unfortunately it also spreads into Europe as well or Wahhabi followers from outside come into the continent and preach their venom and attempt to convert moderates into takfiris.

    Indeed part of the issue is the history of colonialism, the creation of Israel and the US presence in the Middle East and of course.. OIL. But a large part is rooted within Islam; Christians do not blow themselves up in Mecca...

    What the Hell is up with Carol, I really loved how they transformed her from the abused, vulnerable person she was into the independent kickass bitch she morphed into and now she's going back the other way again... whyyyyy

    Spoiler Was almost falling asleep at what was looking to be another boring filler episode.. and then... CROSSBOW BACK IN DA HOUSE! Didn't see that one coming... Poor Tara, she doesn't seem to have much luck in love, that's what.. three of her lovers killed off now?

    Damn the anticipation on Negan's appearance is actually making me want to watch the next one now as oppose to watching everything else that's more interesting and finding 40 minutes to spare with nothing else to see...

    Couldn't believe what I was seeing yesterday, Daesh need to be cluster bombed to pieces fast...

    I read that there's a problem with the Belgian intelligence services sharing information with the police to the point where M15 often tells the Belgians about potential terrorist attacks. What's up with that?

    It's been mentioned, the refugee situation does not help matters and I have no solution to the problem but letting everyone in and taking our "fair share" is so utterly flawed since we have no final numbers and people will keep coming and coming no matter what bit of paper Europe signs with Turkey. The security situation is alarming too.. surely when it's known that the attackers came back from Syria through the floods of people coming in and were never flagged once, that should start to raise some alarm bells, who else has got through that shouldn't have? I've got no time for the "we're all human" crowd, safety of our citizens above all, then we can talk about the rest...

  • System Shock 3

    Interesting idea, I would have prefered a new take on the franchise rather than a remake with the same look of the original made tech 2016 but this does look pretty cool all the same. Let's be honest, had Doom 4 done this, we'd all be jizzing onto our monitors, in fact.. I demand DICE scrap the current version and start doing that right now...

    Quote from D3ads

    I hope the next installment of the franchise is set in Imperial Russia during the October revolution, All sorts of art-deco classical architecture to troll you haters

    Bam! Too bad it's a not a brand new game though! The graphical style is a bit annoying, everything's grey apart from the red stuff? Meh...
