This thread is really hilarious. Especially the people like racingbluepaul who can't take a joke about the UK - I mean come on guys, our countries net capabilities suck so badly that it's now funny just to think about it. Get over it and stop being so pathetic

lol

oh yeh, changing the subject abit, my new motherboard has made a VERY big change to my performance.


A7M266 3DMark Score: 2309

A7V333 3DMark Score: 3514

quite a vast improvement.

I can now play Mohaa in 800x600x32 @ full Detail, but is slow on very active areas, so safe to say it will be smooth on high or higher setting.

same with SoF2, 800x600x32 @ Max Settings, sluggish, but still playable.

Queen Head of Military Thats funny


I have bad news for you. She is.

The Queen is head of state, head of the commonwealth, Commander of the British Army, Highest ranking officer of the Royal Navy, and also of the Royal Air Force, among other things...

And she's also head of state of Canada, Australia and New Zealand, as well as 14 or so small island nations. Its all from the old empire days. Each has her own representative, who just goes around opening shopping centers.

It doesn't mean she has any descision making power, its just that she awards medals... during the Falklands conflict she just nodded as the Generals and Admirals explained things that she might be interested in - not that she really understood it.

The only true power she has is to dismiss Parliment at the request of the Prime Minister, normally before a general election.

oh, you are in the Military?


Not exactly. I'm an officer cadet - hope to get a commission in the RN when I get out of university.

To be honest, I'm not sure about her position in the Church. I think she doesn't actually have one... British Royalty and the Church never really got on that well throughout history.
