I sailed on the HMB Endeavour replica (for those who dont know The boat Captain Cook sailed to Australia in). Did a trip down in the southern ocean and copped a force 10. By far the best thing I have ever done in my life. If you are ever up for a trip like this again, get in contact with me.

EDIT. Was offering myself up for a trip! If there is enough of us, perhaps we can convince the folks of the HMB Endeavour to do another extended voyage?

First off, I respect anyone that goes to war for their country. You guys have got balls, I would be crying like a baby at the first conflict.

Despite all the negative shit the press bleeds about Iraq, what you guys and gals did was liberate a bunch of citizens from a nasty dictator. Dont ever forget what that nasty cocksucker did to the kurds. He violated peoples civil liberties left, right and centre. He had woman raped as a political tool. etc... You should be proud of what you have done.

Anything is possible. To say any controller or system is hack proof is nonsense. What you do to avoid it, is make it hard enough to hack that it does not warrant the effort required.

In the case of the Italian Job, it would be easier just to run red lights!

Can confirm this. Only someone who has been to sea in 10m waves can understand. The cameras just cannot show a wave and its power.

No they dont. The percentage remains the same. The jackpot is factored into the statistical calculation. Over time, these are incredibly accurate.
