@pPPPP If you want us to behave their way in their country, then make them behave the way we do in our country.
Re: "Study shows soap operas trigger aggression in women"
Personally, I've always believed that the goverment is slipping subliminal messages in these programs to keep the brain-dead masses suppressed and depressed so as to be so complacent for their manipulation.
Paranoid
No they didnt
Virgin NEVER informed the NTL customers (at least) of their transfer to Google mail. I only discovered this after the Spam influx mulitplied from 1 a month pre transfer to 30 a day post transfer.
I HATE Google mail - stuck with it at work too!

I would like to know where these businesses are. Sadly I live and work in "Sunny " Scunny - and I've not seen any improvements in anything.
Not quite
Try getting them to ship 2 dvds in one parcel. Not if it comes from Jersey!
Yes I know it's the way they avoid VAT but it's a real pain balancing your credit card statement with multiple entries for one order price
You're Wrong
It's the british laws that cause the fail

Two stupid questions
Who/what defines low quality sites?
What happens if you block Google itself?
In schools, we have site filtration and one idiot entered *.* in the filter list - that was fun!!!
WTF
"Ten years of Windows XP means that the whole world knows how to use it, from administrators to users."
Like ot know which world your users come from - I support three schools and 90% of the staff have trouble with email and word documents without going into "How to save a file to a different folder other than 'My Documents'.
They did it once
Google seemed to have an innovative idea with their email - and f**ked it up big time
Yippeee
Anything is better the Google Mail - stuck with that rubbish (epithets removed) in this school for 4 years - even Lotus Notes that the admin staf use is better, and I never thought I would state that!!!
Totally Useless
Having to live with the GMail paltform for work, I can honestly and wholeheartedly state that it's the worst email platform I've ever had to use.

If you only knew...
As far as schools are concerned, yes, they do do their own purchasing. BUT you don't realise that they can only buy from suppliers who will let them pay via invoice, the schools are not permitted to use credit cards to buy direct from cheaper sources.
Then there is the extra charge (last I heard £1.50 per) imposed on the school for each invoice submitted to the local government for the budget paper trail.

Good, yet BAD
The idea is great, just wished they had picked someone other than RM. As an IT technician in schools, RM has caused the most problems for me in over 8 years.

Not eveyone needs or wants a mobile phone to chat whilst shopping, or driving or use it in another moronic way.

@Gareth
So you're one of the lucky naive b'strds who have never had their network service fail.
Too many computer morons
The remark posted by Anonymous Coward ... "and the average user is too fucking clueless to know there are alternatives" ... I will be brave enough to reiterate this statement. They ARE fucking morons.
I support 3 schools and a lot of home users, the majority of whom are only skilled enough to turn the computer on - don't confuse them with trying to make choices!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You're an idiot - just because they aren't allowed, do you think that stops them -- if you do you're as naive as the rest of the government education organisation.
And you're dumber than Paris
Censorship?
If this phrase is correct -- "The technology also prioritises friends, family and the frequently photographed so that the camera's smile mode will only take photos of recognised faces when they’re grinning"
what happens when, after frequently taking a family member smiling, you want to take a picture of them pouting /scowling then the camera prevents this???
Isn't this censorship?
Who wants Blu Ray anyway?
Who cares if there's a shortage, the only people who will buy them are the idiots who MUST have the latest toys!!!
