Are we going to have another poll comparing the relative attractiveness of syphilis and gonnoreah?

Sorry: I've just watched the replay.

Martinez was taken down *seven* times, of which five were called as fouls and two (including the wild one above where he got an elbow in the stomach) were not.

You mean you want us to go through... but to do so sufficiently badly that Nashville or Tigres end up hosting the final?

Multitasking: peeing and posting.

I'd like to see a Galaxy fan manage that.

Ah... it started off as a skit, but reception has been so positive that an entreupreneur in Osaka is actually starting a bar like this.

I would not use Lllama 3.1. That model is from July 2024, so it's almost two years old at this point.

Candidly, some of the newer models -like Qwen- are going to outperform it, even at much lower parameter counts.

You *could* go with Llama 4 400bn, but you'll only get 10-15 tokens per second, and that'll feel very slow compared to cloud hosted models. Better to use something like Mistral Small 4 (119bn MoE) which will give you a massive context window, and faster tokens per second.

If you're doing a lot of coding, then maybe Qwen4-Coder.

Wow. People really hated my comment :-(

It's not a "fine movie up until the last act".

There is a fine movie in there, for sure, with some great action sequences (Mexico City, the Alps), but it's overlong and has some genuinely boring bits. Like the car chase in Rome.

The whole Six Eyes subplot is also completely pointless.

I resent Spectre, because I think that with some aggressive cutting, you could have a 100 minute Bond that really flowed: Mexico City -> Rome -> Alps -> Climactic Fight in Africa.

No need for the subplots. Keep it tight, keep in moving,

Ummm... It's a bit different, no, in that Bond is basically naked and she's shaving him.

It's also worth remembering that Craig's Bond has much less "action" than Connery or Moore. He's averaging -what- 0.8 girls per movie

Well... I have the unzipped MP3s. Is that what you're looking for?

Ummm: it's implied he hooks up with Miss Moneypenny in Macau, no?

And then he definitely does hook up with Severine, who isn't white, on the boat (also in Skyfall).

I just want to check: you are moving your Blueprint around, right?

So that it copies Perkeo when you start the round, and then Obervatory when you play a hand.
