Cyberdyne and the Humanoid Control Project

The Cyborg terminators will be here before we know it .

Here comes another

Just like the others

Pay to receive? Bye bye phone

As I'd rather not have a fixed or mobile phone in this case.

Errr news flash

Technology breaks down from time to time, if it didn't do you really think there'd be a need for an IT department?

I'd guess quite a few of the commenters work in IT, have any of your systems been down for a while?

Remember, the same types of systems you manage also power the mobile phone networks so they will break from time to time.

If communication is that vital such as keeping in contact with family, carry a prepaid card as a backup, resilience in this situation is just as important as that dual power supply supporting your router/servers.

For goodness sake give fellow techs at O2 a break and stop whining.

Regards

A happy O2 customer (no I don't work ffor them but I have the common sense to realise there is no such thing as 100% uptime)

perhaps.....

One of the guests called them because the burgers were so bad they were considered a crime against taste.

Does he howl at the moon at night?

As he is obviously completely nuts or is just trying to bank some serious cash.

Perhaps he's in debt up to his eyeballs.

definitwely time to send in those dressed in white lab coats with a straightjacket.

Big bro icon selected as he is obviously paranoid but would prefer a howling Wolf please

Stop whining

At least they gave you a refund, thery could of kept your money and considered it a preroder

Pronunciation of names (corrected)

I've watched the yank news recently (ABC world news is broadcast on the Beeb news channel in the small hours) and I'm fed up of hearing that disgraced and now convicted fund manager named as BERRnard Madoff.

Sorry but its just plain Bernard, I know that sounds a bit mundane but hey it is a British name after all.

Oh and by the way check (as in the piece of paper you write an amount on and hand to someone as a payment method) is spelt cheque.

Apologies for the appalling spelling earlier but brain was working quicker than I could type and I had to do some WORK.

@ Natalie Gritpants

A vulture, like everything has two sides so how can be it be facing the 'right' way?

RIP man

Poor fella

That's no age to go.

So does this mean....

We'll hear no more of this boring event?

Won't someone lock up Lord Seb Coe for the crimes of boring the shit out of everyone and wasting taxpayer money as I reckon he's the only one that wants it.

Who thought of this crap service anyway?

I sent an opt out request as it generated a hit when I typed in my details, I'm still waiting for them to confirm the opt out.

Phone numbers that I pay to maintain are mine so I should decide who has them.

It does nothing to instill confidence when you read that such an entity threatened legal action against mobile operators to force them to hand over data.

Any links to Scott 'Spam King' Richter?

Good riddence is what I say.

Don't do it Gerry

I'd love to see Thunderbirds resurrected byt definitelt not in CGI, bring back the puppets!!!

Its a bit like them redoing Inspector Gadget in CGI (one of my favourite shows when I was kid) it looks naff.

Shouldn't this be....

A rise of the machines story?

Abtraction from the hardware via a self aware OS?

Then there's the generator, perhaps they might think it should be a small nuclear reactor.

I hope I live to be an old man and die before that happens.

Perhaps the film Eagle Eye is very prophetic indeed and then of course there's I, Robot.

For goodness sake, don't give these nutcases positive feedback or we're all doomed!!! :)

Skull and crossbones because it'll be only a matter of time before it considers us meatsacks surplus to requirement.

The Jobs stalking brigade

I wish the guy good health of course but what's this all about, everyone knows that Woz was the real technical brains of the outfit but we never hear much about him do we?

Seriously are people that obsessed (including some reporters it would appear).

What's going to happen to Apple whenever he does go and meet the Great Biological Software Architect in the sky?

Text E to 118800 to opt out

That is all

VERY bad idea

FFS will the US government do something useful for once and block this

I mean the company took a retrograde step in releasing the steaming pile that is vista, do we really want them designing tools to fiddle with people's genes?

I bet this won't get through the mod process as MS is probably a major advertising spender.
