Look at Me!
I could understand if Google Glass filmed the wearer and posted the images on-line in "Look at Me!" sycophantic manner, but why go around filming everyone else? I really don't get the point.

It's all the Governments fault for forcing the banks to offer PPI refunds, and that stupid grant for cavity wall insullation. I've never taken out PPI with loans, and I don't want cavity wall insullation. There's aother piece of nonsense just been announced by the latest shambolic idiots in charge of the country and straight away you realise that it's just another excuse for the spammers to try and call you endlessly.
Write to your MP and tell them to stop interfering. Any party will do, they're all shambolic idiots unfit to govern.
But if you ask 3 medical staff how they work you'll get at least 3 different answers. This is why a country wide system will never work. Particularly now that hospitals, AKA Health Trusts are essentially disparate companies.
That said, it really shouldn't be that difficult to create a database table with 65million rows in it?
I've spent a year or more telling cavity wall installers and PPI "ambulance" chasers to piss off! I'm fed up with the government announcing these schemes that do nothing but generate nusiance 'silent' phone calls for me.
"According to our records..." No, I've never had PPI, your records are WRONG, and don't I want cavity wall insulation.
Go away! Leave me alone!
To paraphrase Oscar Wilde...
"To lose one disk, Mr Smith, may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose three looks like carelessness."?
After 3 disk failures I'd be checking the RAID controllers and stuff to ensure it's not something other than a disk issue. Unless you tell me it's software RAID that is, then I'll just laugh at you.
I really struggle to see the point of this. Why would I want to give money to a third party to 'look after' so I can then spend it later. If I want to make a cash transaction I'll use a debit card, or horror of horrors, cash. This is simply a solution to a problem that doesn't exist. and a way for Vodfone and Visa to hold onto your cash so that they can earn interest on it.
I have iPlayer on my Sony Blu-Ray player. It works well enough, but it's a bit of a faff to start it, pressing ok multiple times, and searching for stuff using a standard remote is a chore. It has other stuff, but I'm not bothered about being able to watch Youtube on a TV, especially when searching for anything is such a chore.
7/10. Must try harder
Maybe Virgin Media should start with the basics before offering to provide services to villages. They can't get fibre rolled out in the mid sized town I live in. This is particularly annoying when you live on a new estate that has all the ducting in place from the point when the estate was built less than 10 years ago.
Solaris may be slower, but at least it works, and you get meaningful support from Sun (or at least you do at present). Move to Linux / blades and move to a world of random meaningless error messages and no possibility of proper fault diagnosis. The only way you get hardware fixed on blades is to keep swapping bits until the problem stops re-occurring. That's hardly viable for a mission critical solution?
