Mau-Mau is a classic

Definitely one of the most interesting card games, imo. The problem is finding actual people who play it these days... Do you play other card games?

I don't really play online, but heard good things about https://www.skat-online.com/, could maybe give it a go. I haven't played Skat in years it's all about Rommé for me these days, I must be getting old

Hellooooooo? Anyone in here? We should bring this thread back to its former glory

And? How did you like it? Yes, Season 2 just started a while ago... Which reminds me that I have to watch Episode 3

I'm the same. Was in the track & field team at high school so did a lot of running, my first few kms were always a bit sub-par, but after that I would get a "second wind", improve my times significantly and have plenty of energy for the rest of the race. One of the reasons why I always prefered long distances instead of short sprints. I don't run anymore, but it still happens whenever I do cardio; I usually struggle a bit for the first few minutes/kms and then it gets easier and I feel a sudden surge of energy.

Nothing is ever too expensive when it comes to US military spending... They can always charge their citizens even more than they do now for basic medical care in order to make up for it

I bet that's going to end well

I've been on the old F1 seasons watching streak (as you well know, haha), and didn't realise how similar to Carlos Reutemann he (Bottas) appears to be. Could be very good "on his day", but more often than not frustratingly indecisive, sloppy, and somewhat mentally fragile. This Nigel Roebuck quote describing Reutemann sounds eerily similar to Bottas too: "Through the days before the race Carlos was relaxed, full of good humour. On the Sunday, when it mattered, he faded to nothing. As I watched that afternoon, I was embarrassed for him. Afterwards he mumbled about understeer on right-handers, and gearchange problems, but in all truth he drove like a man who had suddenly decided he did not want the World Championship."

Have you considered putting it on your resume?

As in free travel with no restrictions at all? Fairly unlikely. That said, it depends on your destination. It's possible to travel to quite a few countries already at this point, it's just somewhat complicated and often inconvienent.

No.... Been busy with work and then had a card playing & whisky night last night

Come on, it's not THAT bad

I started the first one and then forgot all about it Should restart it again.

The question is though, have you watched For All Mankind?

Definitely worth it, imo. I usually lose interest very quickly and seldom finish most of the games that I start, but I thoroughly enjoyed that one.

Think you three should share the crew sleeping quarters on the Starship; do some bonding, heard it's great for camaraderie

Thought we could have a TF365 meetup and go to the Moon at the same time...

About 15 hours, mixing story mode + Jedi knight difficulty levels a bit. I didn't do 100% of all collectibles though, just went through the main story.

Anyone up for a trip to a Moon on the Starship, all expenses paid? @CaaC (John) @Bluewolf @Mel81x @Stan

Actually got his book, will give it a go once I'm done with most of the books in my current reading queue. Alien technology sounds a bit far fetched, but Oumuamua is indeed a very strange object.

Things are getting really bad in Myanmar, with 38 unarmed demonstrators shot dead by the police and military forces on Wednesday alone, bringing the number of deaths to around 60, with hundreds injured and thousands arrested/disappeared. Some videos taken are just shocking. Machine guns, sniper headshots, brutal beatings.

Third time's a charm... They managed to land Short version for the lazy: Granted, the landing was not perfect, as there was a methane leak and the rocket exploded on the pad after a while - apparently the landing gear/landing legs didn't work perfectly, with a slight tilt damaging the methane lines.

Could at least put Ewoks instead of animal print...

No Death Stars and Lightsabers?
