    How much data do you have?

    How are you finding 5G? Is it much faster than 4G? I saw a huge difference between 3 & 4 but wondering if 5 might just be incremental. It’ll reach the point where speed will be throttled by device limitations.

    Humble Bundle

    One good thing about it is you can gift games you don’t want to friends. I’m currently building a collection of keys for use as competition prizes.

    Next Project is Blog or Forum

    My blog is just for my personal thoughts. It's been going since 2005 and I care not if anyone reads it. I find writing cathartic. Getting my thoughts out helps me understand them. https://alsarcastic.com Forums though, I love them. Just started one and planning another.

    How much data do you have?

    My plan gives me 100gb of data a month and I use about 10% of that in a busy month. I'm due for renewal in August and I'll be reducing that down to somewhere near 20gb. I like to have a little bit to play with just in case.

    How do you pick staff?

    My golden rule is, if someone asks to be staff say no. Unless you're actively seeking and they apply through a process. Other than that I pick staff based on activity and subject area knowledge. There's no other way to do it really.

    Humble Bundle

    Anyone else have a subscription to Humble Bundle? I get to choose nine games a month out of a stable of 14 or 15. Usually there's an AAA title in there somewhere. In May I picked up Jurassic World, Xcom 2 and Gladius: Relics of War. Still haven't chosen my June selections yet. Any...

    Xenforo Must Have Add-Ons

    The only one I'm using is the XenPorta homepage. I am trying to limit third party plugins to keep things smooth. There's a huge amount you can do with just vanilla XenForo. I don't think loads of plugins are essential. One thing I noticed about xF over vB is that most plugins have a cost...

    Trump: What's your take?

    Jumping on the Trump-Hate-Train, the man is a wotsit-faced, tiny-handed, pussy-grabbing, sex-criminal. I’m no expert but I’d put money on an emotionally unstable personality disorder and a narcissistic personality disorder. Leader of the free world? I hang my head in shame.

    Herd immunity for Coronavirus?

    Herd immunity is the only way a species survives against viruses. It’s necessary and must happen, however the way governments go about it could be better. We have heard immunity against influenza and the common cold. It’s how we’ve not been wiped out yet. Yes there’s still cases, yes there’s...

    #BLM blacklivesmatter

    What are your views on this very relevant subject? I’m happened upon a protest recently here in the UK. Very peaceful, good-natured and organised. Opposite this group were a bunch of what can only be described as thugs. They shouted ALLLIVESMATTER as much as they boo’ed and jeered. Yes all lives...

    Greetings

    Very retro. Love it. I’m old school. Love a good old fashioned forum. I’m from England and very pleased to be here. I’m a 40+ year old grumpy bloke who still thinks he’s fifteen. I like the odd beer, science fiction movies, gamin’ and complainin’.
