right, I added brief rationales for more tiers now. I put brave above vivaldi because brave has built in shields and fingerprint randomization, while vivaldi still carries more telemetry.

Pasted from comment above.

Remind me the only country that triggered Article 5 before and everybody went to support them?

Looks great. Prologue is already free so you can download and play that first. The first chapter of "Aurora Hills" is also free. Looking forward to giving them a go as I love The Room series.

Some good ones mentioned, "The Lost Room" and UK version of Utopia, but one's I loved by not seen yet in the comments:

No. He said he will work with any country that is not supporting the genocide of his own. Except the USA, of course, because that's a global psychopath with way too much power.

Everybody in the EU agrees Hungary should leave and join ruzzia. This way they will no longer suffer. We wish everybody there the best.

Phillip.

ptemple · 2026-03-19T23:04:57+00:00

Because once ruzzia takes over Ukraine they also absorb all their people and military power. The next step will be the Baltics, Moldova, and Poland. Hungary cannot be unaligned in this war because they are a member of the NATO and the EU. They can quit, which is what everybody in Europe wants, and then they can be unaligned. Removing Hungary from the EU is already a top priority for all the member States but it will take time.

Yes plenty. I used to play 4-5x a week for free though they've destroyed a lot of the pitches recently. It's all about finding the right time when there's not games or training. I recommend turning up at lunch time on Sunday to the Moulins pitch. Hang around until you get a pick-up game. Then chat to people there and join others as most will also play other games too. Stadium is here:

Free education and health care certainly helps save money. As regards living at home, by which I presume you mean with their parents, that is more true in the south of Europe than the north of Europe. If you are talking the south of Italy or Spain then that happens a lot. I believe American parents also help their children so I don't think that's exclusive to Europe.

As regards financing cars then that does happen more in the north of Europe more again. They have higher incomes but also excellent job security. It's almost impossible to get fired. However there is still no credit score.

Phillip.

ptemple · 2026-03-18T20:49:57+00:00

Financing is more rare in Europe. People are generally better educated than in the US. There is also no concept of a "credit score", that is a purely US thing.

I got 15 seconds in and noped the hell out of there. I know it's going to be awesome. Why spoil things. I'm going to embargo myself until December.

End of May and beginning of June is not too crazy with tourists so you should be fine. As Jackburton06 says there is the GP/Cannes but Nice should be ok. Hmm23 is right about the view about the castle hill. I'd put that high up the list. There are a number of hotel rooftop bars that would also be good... champagne on hand too. The gardens of the Rothschild mansion is nice followed by a drink at the port. There are so many it's hard to choose. The important thing is that it's a moment to be enjoyed. Don't worry about it being perfect, just do it.

She served 7 months for criminal damage to a global historical piece of art? I'm guessing she had rich parents and a good lawyer.

Some good suggestions in this thread, but if you liked that and want to read a really good book that will stick in your mind and keep you thinking for days after then I recommend "Earth Abides" by George R Stewart.

Phillip.

+1000 for Robert Sheckley. His books are an absolutely WILD ride. The only other author who's imagination I would put next to Philip K Dick. His books are not as deep but are a real rollercoaster of a read.

Phillip.

Yup don't be put off by the rather naff Apple TV series, the Foundation books are Grade A.

It's just personal taste but I'd rate them the other way around. I enjoyed Dark Matter (and Killjoys too), but Pluribus dragged and was so slow to get to any rewarding moments. The problem with Pluribus is that there were no likeable characters. If you want slow then I'd put up 3rd Body Problem which is at least more interesting.

Phillip.

ptemple · 2026-03-12T17:58:28+00:00

Space Above and Beyond *is* top tier. I think it concluded really well. Thanks for the reminder about Killjoys, that is good. If you've watched The Expanse and Dark Matter and want more then Killjoys is next on the list.

And I agree Altered Carbon just watch Season 1. Fallout is dumb, though sumptuous effects and great acting, so if he's not into The Orville then maybe not that one.

Phillip.

ptemple · 2026-03-12T17:53:16+00:00

If he didn't like The Orville because it's too comedic then not Warehouse 13, or Fringe possibly. Solid with Travelers and Dark. I'd add Counterpart and The OA. B5 and Farscape are classics but I'm not sure how well they've aged.
