    Watched the first six episodes (out of eight) of Alex Garland's DEVS.
    A tech company with a secret department doing profound research with quantum computing that may impact on the whole world. Garland also wrote and directed Ex Machina, another thoughtful discussion of near-future technology. DEVS also shares the same cinematographer, Rob Hardy, so is extraordinarily beautiful. And the sound is fascinating, sometimes reminding me of 2001.
    Absolutely loving it so far. The pacing is very, very good. Expect to watch the final two episodes tonight.
    It's currently on BBC meaning the ful series is up on iPlayer for easiest access. In the US it was Hulu for anyone there (and has finished).

    Hi B4,
    Skype is not the same as sky. Skype allows you to video calls from a mobile phone, laptop or tablet. If you google it you should be able to find it. You then need to install it, register and then you can use it. Hope it helps.

    Try to maintain social contact with friends if you're having to self isolate even if it's through phone calls, texts, FaceTime, messaging on social media.
    Keep yourself busy and keep your mind focused on things that you are able to do indoors to avoid the temptation of dwelling and ruminating on things in your mind that you may not have any control over. 
    Eat properly and do exercises inside like burpees, push and sit ups, running on the spot, if you've got something like a Peleton or cross trainer at home even better.

    A bit like the phone in on Monday night. When we 've been hammered people queue up to give an opinion and when we've been good nobody calls the show. My grandad used to say happy people dont have much to say.

    How embarrassing... I just asked the guy in Boots what gets rid of Coronavirus.
    He looked at me and mumbled “ammonia cleaner”
    'Wow, so sorry I thought you worked here'... ..

    Hearn on Talksport talking a good game. He's saying that Pulev is deal is not done for the summer yet. 
    Pulev and Fury both promoted by Arum, and Hearn said Pulev could stand aside to free up a summer Joshua v Fury undisputed title fight.

    There you are, all done and dusted, so efficient. Perhaps Cunning Dom should get mods to run the country instead of misfits. (Fully expect this to be moved to Political Thread)

    I feel guilty now! 
    Almost like that time I dobbed on Ginger Jenkins in secondary school for flashing me a glimpse of her panties, even though I thoroughly enjoyed it!
     
    *She was just called Miss Jenkins, before that day.  Obviously died her hair! 
    Anyway, 2 months later, they promoted her to headmistress, so we all lived happily ever after... which brings us very much back on topic...

    Love this.
    We have a fan in Korea who's really active on Twitter. He has a really good knowledge of the club, including its history, and he's even learning how to properly swear in English! He's brilliant and he's going to come over when he finishes school.
