Casablanca* was on Foxtel last night and I called my mid 20s son over to watch a bit. I was explaining the politics of the time and why the script was so clever. But when the scene below came on it was quite emotional given what happened yesterday in Paris. Just mentally substitute the Nazis with Islamic extremists.

Mine too. Just perfect in every way. And I don't think I've ever seen a movie treat its audience so respectfully in terms of assuming they are intelligent. The scene at the end where Captain Renault (Port connection?) starts to pour a drink from a bottle of Vichy water then looks at it and drops it into the bin is just magnificent in that way.

lol, Poland has gone full right wing. Closed the borders and is rejecting mandated refugee quotas imposed by the EU. They recently voted in a pretty far right party and recently there was a march of 90,000 against Immigration. The right well and truly entrenched there. Interesting times, the EU is looking shakier by the minute. Hungary has passed laws to allow them to deploy the Army to prevent further refugee entry into the country too.

lol Rousey, cop that. Maybe now I can enter the sports section without a ****ing Rousey article or twelve every day on what she does from eating quinoa to wearing white socks. The more overexposure and over-hyped you are, the further you fall. Onto the scrap heap you go for a while.
 
Fallout 4 is so laggy what the **** suddenly my computer goes from being able to run games on medium settings at 1080p to stuttering out at lowest settings 720p (which is some Neanderthal resolution)



Mine is running smoother and looks better than any game I've played on it before. Bought it for planetside 2 about 3 years ago.

Test cricket is not going to last, there is far too much favour given to batsman. Cricket bats need to have tighter design restrictions and pitches need to meet certain requirements in regards to page and bounce. Unfortunately imposing these sort of requirements will likely only increase the cost of hosting and preparing for a test match and the changes would need to be deployed at county level as well which is a big ask.

It's in real strife aside from the blockbusters. The decline of the West Indies is a real loss to the game - and they will not be back. T20 and 50 over cricket will be the only forms played in the next decade or so. A real shame, test cricket is so unique but the scheduling is a nightmare and the fact that 500+ scores are so commonplace now is awful. 300 used to be the "this is a safe score" 400 was the "lets declare". It's out of control.
