obvious now someone's thought of it..

and quite good marketing covering it in El reg when it's apparently not been invested in yet.

@ sloppy

think you got trolled by the reg..

my kids(one of each model) both know judo and are looking at akido next.. so they both know how to hit each other and that the other person can do exactly the same back.

entente discordail rules.

troll much AC at 14.48?

also, dogma: if only for Chris rock..

I'm with Kevin, and I'm not fat either..

as for the IT angle, it's linux on a netbook.. sooo last year..

he found something he wasn't supposed to audit

and it prolly wasn't pr0n.

@ hmmm

it allows for the old boy network to get stuffed. all that junk that account managers 'bring to the table' <<coff, sorry>> for the sweetening of the deal to the gatekeepers in accounting..

i remember working at the local PCT.. pipe cleaners of absolutely normal specification : £1.50..

because they had a preferred seller list from which they had to buy from.. and who had paid the toll to get on the list.. the exact same product costs £45.

it's rife. there needs to be more of this, see icon..

definitions

virgin could well be telling the truth about the product they are having deployed. this does not mean the software won't do other things they know nothing about.

they have plausible truth while the spooks use itto garner all sorts of nice info while being paid to run it on virgin's servers

hydrogen fuel cell..

what is it with all these vibrators-on-wheels?

nothing to see here..

it'll take about 3 years to actually hit those numbers, this is just a share pump puff piece by a bunch of marketeers..

the same has been true of the 'trend spotters' opinions for the last decade..

where'd they all go?

that's the important question.

any clues? an article on that might be of interest.

hersheys

not really chocolate is it?

win7?

I foresee my workplace sticking with Win 2K. licensing? they've heard of it..

marketing

seems he's had those gosh-darned extra ribs removed for easy access. now he can fold himself double with ease when blowing his own trumpet.

see also: "you're in marketing? kill yourself."

paris.. well,having a couple of her ribs removed would be entertaining..

title = federal europe

The RIASS are used to dealing with a federated group of mini-States. much like Europe is. if they gain a foothold in one, then they use it to influence the surrounding states. Spain would be an easy one to Hit..

also: " websites like Google could be subject to shut-down under the law."

translates as " local state government see an opportunity to leverage options against the corporation in question either for fund-age or other favors received. quid-pro-quo."

Google are cash/power-rich and any national/state legislation that gives the government that leverage is going to be popular. they have costs to cover, after all.

tangentially

@Lewis. an article on the viability of dirty bombs/dimethylmercury at major sporting events and why hasn't that happened yet(?) and when would it be apparent, given the apparent lack of joined up thinking we do in this country? or is that just a cunning ploy: 'we're too dis-organised as a country to spot it ' but really we're sh1t hot..

just your perspective would be entertaining..

codecs

they haven't installed k-lite on the police systems yet..

Mckinnon

strange, this didn't seem to take much effort to say no. and be upheld.

i thought we were the 51st state of the union now and the legal jurestriction was under the dominion of the US of A...

why isn't this man being transported to the colonies to be reamed by their justice's processes?

disco

Discovery channel like that kind of footage for their AirCrash investigators series. they wants a chunk of that.

scarcity keeps the prices up in any market.

residential users

or is it just for estate agents?

it would be nice to bypass them as a sales portal. they charge too much.

/flameon

my old PE teacher

would have loved that. a cctv feed to a hard drive system that records them getting changed..

But then there were Very Dark mutterings about some of the things he did.

'the kids get changed in the classroom' and this isn't causing the parents to protest? perspective fail..

science?

isn't the search for knowledge, it's the search for funding.

these guys got Paid for this? one part of a connected system changes and they predict alterations that are knock on effects then manage to observe them. outstanding.

as for the comments on global warming and the fundamental sense of humour fail exhibited thereafter.. meh. don't be so uninteresting.

and so you should be

Still, worth the attempt. Shrimp.

where do they get their kit?

i thought they just repackagedother people's oem kit..

my mum

used to have a craving for the smell of petrol when i was busily gestating. this study explains soooo much! thank you ElReg, you have shed a glimmer of light on why i like to imbibe long chain hydrocarbons.

I Love the smell of a 955 in the morning, son!.. smells like... breakfast.

serving suggestion

looks pretty but the consequences will kill you.

mines the one with the Pepto in thepocket.

hmm

post codes aren't public domain info? how the hell did the RM swing the ownership on that?

ABCA

have they heard of the eleventh commandment? especially apt given he's in the security biz..

surely

that's 'fromage grand'.. they have this odd grammar over there you know..

last couple of decades

and he's 34. that's either a very early starter or he's being a little less than scientific about the details. typical mandarin-speak.

he probably means he started in the late 90's after he couldn't get a proper job when he left uni and has been doing a bit since then.. and he clearly didn't get in on the qinetiq pork roll. shame.

wonderfull virgin

i thouht i was having dns issues on my laptop. most of the sites were intermittent and just giving 'not found' messages. been that way for weeks. tried many things.

seems it was those darn kids at virgin afterall.

gosh.

tossable bots

surely, that's 'tossbots'

parasitic lifeforms

where there's a large resource, there'll always be something making use of it. Flease on cats, Rhemoras on whalesharks, patent infringement suits on large Corporates.

@ dima..

home insurance clain? or some such similar insurance prod to replace rather than repair?

i wouldn't mind one of these but i'm a habitual late-adopter.. mostly due to financial constraints.. and i might never put the thing down if i had one and that might be a bad thing.

i liked the article and it's light approach as an intro on how-to etc. well written, more of this please Monsenior El Vulture.. this is much better than the bash-the-government-for-yet-another-software-snafu stuff.. :)

illiterative much?

that is all.

ref the property values

if a customer speaks to me and has exceptional bb speeds, i often pop them a spot of advice about adding such details to their property advice pack or whatever they callt hem. it would certyainly be a question i would ask when viewing property..

as muswell hill: pah, who cares. conservation area? does that extend to the typw of car you are allowed to drive? ge trid of those ugly modern cars..pre 1940s models only to suit the rest of the borough's mentality..

top gear

had some positive, constructive thoughts on the solution, i particularly applaud Mr Leno and his opinion. Coffee cups and 'spandifoam.. the way forward.

Apple

will build something like the iphone but bigger and with 50 other extra functions..and a prettier screen with colour.. this thing has some uses but when that mooted iTablet or whatever they're going to call it comes out with full Mac Os and such, this might look a little too like a dinosaur/niche product.

nice enough but too early in this market to justify purchase..

also, i'm not a HappyAppleSlapper, i don't own a single product of theirs. I can just see better things coming and the most likely source would be the Tw@tablet.

sad

a poor thing to have happenned. suicide or not, someone's at fault here. my overly developed Cynic Gland says nowt will come of it.

there are enough people likely to have a stake in the acquisition of a somewhat important product prototype that it could easily have been purposefully obtained/nicked, and that certainly seems where the 'thoughts' of those involved in 'investigating' the loss process have gone. and, i suppose, what ever pressure was placed on the poor soul, he might have jumped. They do seem very serious about personal honour and such.. it may seem alien to our western values but it should not be underestimated as cause, even if some of the specifics are suspicious in origin.

@ the people pointing at apple as complicit, i'd suggest they look at the cost of production and the customer price point and turn some degree of complicity upon themselves.

also, i'm sure i've seen a number of motherboards with Foxconn component scattered about them, intel for one used to have a major fabrication deal with them for sure.. i see no less complicity there also.

i'm certainly complicit. i buy these things as cheaply as anyone.

@Apologies to sensitive people.. the polite applause in the background shall be for you, humour blacker than the inside of a cat.

condolences, as if anything on here matters..

FOI

Footage would be subject to availability under the FOI. much like being caught on MOD cameras when stood outside their establishments.. Mark Thomas i'm looking at you.. there's a new sport right there..

Anybody else thinking the police setup in Halting State is the next step from this? Testemony submitted by webcam and email pleas on plaintiff's behalf..

@cody

i agree. can i have yor baybeez? yu shurlee arr clevre.
