Re: Block by IMEI
I never understood why they don't do it state side. Back in Blighty I know they do this. Simple solution.... to a problem & people want to over complicate it?
@ Matt....
Politicians make promises all the time, they never keep.....
Re: Hoorah!
Or any other country that has an extradition treaty with the US.........
Re: "Huawei says US probe had 'predetermined outcome'"
LOL now that was funny...
Nice way to get some FREE press....
.. for MGK. Do wonder who told him to be a "bad boy gangsta thug". Did he work that out himself, or did the artist management team behind him tell him to do it?
"You will be the most 'biatchin' gansta' ever if you do it"
"But I don't want too"
"Do it or we pull your contract! You need some press coverage"
"Yes, boss"
We need a Bill Hick icon.... for those that know.....

/yawn.....
A computer that you can only surf the web on....... They are called Mobile phones & most of us have them now.
Just warning you all but ........
......... My gold plated butt-plug business is being sued by Apple.
Apparently they have a patent for overpriced crap for arseholes.
Sorry if this has been posed before.... some one emailed me it today & it amused me no end ;)
Anyone know what CDN.....
.... WikILeaks was using, so we know to avoid them.
Posted in Why women won't apply for IT jobs
IT & women......
To any female reg reader who's thinking of taking a job (or starting a career) in IT, its not all doom & gloom out their. "Lady Lien" works for a real nice company. She is treated as equal to anyone else at her skill level. So don't be put off applying for for a job or taking a qualification.
Only bad thing about "Lady Lien" working in IT..... its hard to hide the "Grumble" ;)

Text Wrangler....
... love it. Been using it to make terminal scripts since Apple messed up TextEdit. I don't think I'll ever go back to TextEdit unless they drastically improve it.
Onxy & FontNuke are well handy too.
Anyone else....
.... wonder how much money the Lawyers have made out of this case by making it run this long?
@ Thad....
... don't think anyone gives too shites anymore what the Pope thinks about anything.
The religious mo-mo's have lost there grip on being able to dictate to the masses years ago & ever since then we have been able to enjoy life a bit more.
Beer, because everyone loves a nice pint :)
@ Thorne....
Bloody hell, I stand guilty as charged.... its always a surprise when my partner lets me have some :)
Posted in Ten... eight-bit classic games
Head Over Heels? To be honest there are way to many games for the speccy that I still play. Saboteur still gets played quite often.

Re: Er wrong!
Always found that a bit strange that your so pro-life you feel the urge to kill.... Could that be one of the better examples of the oxymorons that can reside in human nature?
Re: Hardcore Charlie
You mean junglist....... Its my religion.... I'm off to kane my M-Beat tunes at a loud volumes just like back in 94 ;)
Vinyl....
... has been on its way out since the late 80's, or thats what everyone was telling me when I started my "black crack" habit back in 88. The 1210's I got in 95 have been going strong since. Might have had a shed load of needle changes, but decks were built to last...
Re: Dirty linen
Troll post or humour thats gone wrong.

@ Mondo the Magnificent....
... its more than just an Ipad... its..... its..... OK, your right its just an iPad.
Posted in iOS 5 'crashes more apps' than Android
Mail app on IOS 5...
... is really bad for crashing when you reply to emails. I've worked out if you delete the entire email thread before you reply its fine. Very strange bug in the application. You have thought this would have been found in testing.

Paris because.... well because ;)
Gay people...
... have just as much rights as everyone else to be miserable & have that ring on the finger, that tells the world they have now started a life of celibacy. ;)
@ Matthew Anderson.
We used to smoke on a few Jamaican wood binds then do it. :)
Paris because she smoked, but never inhaled ;)
I could not find anything in the article about the daughter being the hacker or passing on the information. So its safe to assume she might not have know what was going on, not everyone is tech savvy.
Norton AV software...
... is about as useful as using water as sun cream.
David Beckham....
I used to work with a guy who's claim to fame was calling him "David Beckham farty pants" & watch him run home crying to his mum when they were kids. It seems plausible as they are both the same age & came from the same area.... slightly off topic but quite a funny story :)
@ Cazzo Enorme
Too right, Operation Get Behind Darkies for Battalion 14 was a complete success!
@ Darryl, Look up Streisand effect.....
Bit of an own goal by Apple. Bet a few heads roll some where.
I think they should...
... round up a few "undesirables". Pop them into a rocket & send them of to Mars. The neds that frequent the High Street on a weekend would be a good place to start looking.
I duno what them loverly ladies were trying to sell.....
... but I'll take 2 please.....
Ha Ha...
.. I worked with a guy who did the same. Lent his USB stick to a fellow engineer & it had some "art" pictures of his girlfriend. Queue mad dash accross the office once he realized what had happened.
"it this which prevents me from holding him up as an icon for young people"
So who does?
The 'interactive' flashlight...
... does that man look like Arnold J Rimmer or what?
Heavy Metal...
... does that count?
"The Fate of these two will be decided at the Breastry Area in Nippopolis!" - Major boobage ;)
BT...
... seems to be an easy ISP to hit if you want to try & block something. Wonder if they will bend over & do it.
@MD1500 adding a S will not work. Technology has moved on & it is possible for a device* to processes your HTTPS requests & read/log anything you do over "S". It would be safe to say that all tho BT don't do it, they could if the need ever arouse.
* I believe Fortigate Firewalls can do this, or thats what they said they could do when I went to a presentation they did for me last year. So if anyone can confirm this as fact or fiction, I would be eternally grateful :)

Zetas...
.... anyone else think that Catherine & the family have come a long way since Darling Buds Of May.
Posted in Farewell then, Sony Ericsson
P800....
.... I wanted one of them so badly back in 2002, but they were out of my price range for a lowly underpaid IT 1.
They look like a brick now, not dated very well. lol
(In your best Nelson voice) Ha Ha!!
Remember when you could do the same thing on Experts Exchange.

Posted in Apple gets patent for ‘unlock gesture’
Next in the News...
... Apple patent breathing in & out.
Randy Marshes....
... long lost cousin after some weed?
(Just incase you did not get that reference, South Park S14 E03)
Trouble with this drivel....
... people will believe it. Not everyone is as tech savvy as most people who read these articles on the Reg.
There must be laws against this site, as it's false advertising.
One word to describe these people.....
Starts with a C & also contains NUTS.
Take down access to PB.....
... it will get mirrored somewhere else & another 10 torrent sites will pop up. Your pissing in the wind on this.
Ha Ha.
Number 6 amused me :)
Degree from....
...... Skool of hard knocks, is worth much more than anything on paper.
I'm so sorry.....
... but any Reg article that has "explain that sex is mandatory" & "intersex" in the text, brings out the childish 14 year old in me.
I'm off to draw knobs in people hands in the school books & sneek out for a sly ciggy behind the bike sheds.
This one & the ILOVEYOU...
... got me a shed load of overtime back in the day :)
Upvote number 2....
.... may the legend thats Bill Hicks live on :)
Why don't we just go the whole hog....
... & get Judge Judy to set-up over here.
