Ah, Steyn Online. Need to add that.  LI gets a little dry for me.

on Mar 30, 2016

LI was better when it was mostly the Prof, I admit, and a few nutjobs have been dominating the comments with childish pissing contests of late, but there's still good stuff & good links there for the most part.

Steyn never fails to deliver, always manages to knock it out of the park.  His writing lands in the same brain space where the pleasure of good music resides.

Wot, nobody goes to the Playboy site?

I hear they have some very interesting articles over there.

Another couple of sites I occasionally visit are NTCompatible and Ted's Hardware

Yeah, I know, I'm boring cos my interests aren't so wide and varied, but there's only so much room inside my head to store information.

That's what knee caps are for, extra storage.

Unfortunately, that's all they have now.

Didn't you hear the sad news? They are no longer doing nude pics.

on Mar 30, 2016

Yeah, I read somewhere the nakedness was being dropped for articles, not that it bothers me any.  What would upset me more is if Stardock dropped the WC forums for naked pics of gorgeous women.

re: post #20

 

True story - c30 years ago:  The Library of Congress had a sub to playboy.  Purists demanded the library cancel its subscription.  The LOC complied - canceled sub to Playboy.  Irony: the version of Playboy in question was the brail edition.  This means the readers were actually reading Playboy for the articles.    (Quiet Norm!)

I go to joe user for non galciv 3 stuff. I sometimes go to galciv2. For the most part the posts are the same under recentno matter where you go so it doesn't matter. So there is no reason to check tiny little frogs or other ones. It would would be nice to have a galciv site that excludes other gaming sites from other game catagories under recent. Does wikipedia count. And yes facebook is really my only social media site besides galciv. It gets a lot of attention. The only problem i get with facebook it kept throwing me off for friending friends and acquantences and claiming i don't know them.

Quoting admiralWillyWilber,

Now why would a gool 'ol Aussie bloke with more sense than that go to Fechen Facebook? 

Next you'll be telling us you Twitter as well.

Anyway, you have more than enough work to do here... so... banned from Facebook and Twitter to prevent dereliction of duty.

I went to Facebook just once - to sign up because somebody suggested it's a great way to stay in touch - but then I thought better of it when somebody else raised privacy concerns and I never went back.  For months after that I'd get a deluge of emails 'did I know this person, did I know that person.  Sent them 'discontinue' emails and even blocked Facebook and its domain, but the damned things kept coming, day after day, week after... until I discontinued using that email address and created another using different credentials/profile, etc.

Yup, Zuckerberg has a lot to answer for.

Damned double posting.... page timed out twice and supposedly didn't upload.  Well it didn't the first time... and when I submitted for the third time I see that the second attempt was indeed successful.... bah humbug.
