@AC 02:36 -

You come here with your swanky new sayings, but please, explain, why would they belong in prison?

Personally, I think setting up a mesh network beyond the reach of regulatory bodies/dictatorial governments is a great idea. As someone else mentioned, just blueprint a self-configuring node and we'll work on getting the price right down.

So, to summarise, the arse has fallen out of IT.

Time to leave the kids to it and set off for pastures new?

Perhaps I'll start iPad's Anonymous and turn some coin helping the poor technology refugees of the future.

This happens when you get clan members on the same FFA FPS servers too! Slighly unfair :D

Teamkilling with the knife in BF1942 whilst waiting for the plane to spawn 'Nein, das ist verboten!' :p

See you on the airstrip

Seems to me, that most people selling the Big tIssue are fakers.

Aren't these hobo's going to end up with malignant tissue?

'A history of excellent, well engineered and durable hardware' NOT!

Check out the download page for the A8N-VM CSM/NBP (NBP means nVidia Business Platform)

The final BIOS is Beta for chrissakes and can't even boot Windows 7 because they fucked up the Trusted Core module (as far as I can tell) and never finished the job.

It's far from the only problem I had with Asus boards, but then I haven't bought Asus for over 5 years because of the problems. Rumour has it they've improved, but I'm once bitten, especially considering there are other excellent manufacturers out there.

A 'momentous' event?

Possibly not the best adjective to use.

But I can buy a 60GB Agility III for £62, why would I want this?

Install Windows on the SSD and everything else on a fast SATA3 HDD, surely?

Please let this be true.

If it is, I'll be dancing on the grave of optical media.

I forsee being able to send existing 360 games in the post to Microsoft so they will license me to download them through Live to my SSD.

I've been waiting so long for console manufacturers to get back to ROM style usage, rather than these utterly shite unreliable optical discs.

Sometimes I'm glas to be my own boss, VSFW!

I've got the Hammer House of Horror complete collection in my Lovefilm list at the moment too.

AndrueC: From my point of view, that's exactly the problem with BT, rather than upgrading all the exchanges to 24mpbs, they're focussing on upgrading the most lucrative exchanges to Infinity.

David Rickard: the 'broadband only' part, presumably means when an ISP provisions broadband but you continue to pay BT for line rental. There will never be a broadband only product (unless the line rental charge is incorporated, in which case it would be pointless not to have a phone service thrown in as well)

If it's vitally essential, then surely they must ensure all their staff are getting enough of it.

You stuffy old gits, I thought that looked really good :D

No sound here, can someone tell me, was that rear light projecting the safe stopping distance onto the road behind?

Let's do away with the telephone numbering system and have a DNS for phones!

VNC, rly? Troll on!

Can't we just put all 09 numbers on a fire and forget the whole sorry premium rate fuck up ever existed?

How does a database app not run in a WinXP VM?

To all intents and purposes, it's just another WinXP box.

Glad to see Version 1.0 got more upvotes than down for that!

Works for me

We could of course extract the heat from the mud with GSHP's.

(were it not, unfortunately, massively expensive)

Should make heavy petting in the back row even more fun!

HDMI 1.4 also allows for Ethernet which would be quite useful

Would like to add, Chu-Chu Rocket from Sega, Super Stickman Golf, Unblock Me Free.

+1 for SpeedX too

Off to get GTA3 though, cheers for the heads up

Let's hope legal people around the world stop Apple from stifling competition.

I, as a consumer, would like one of these Huawei tablets. I as a consumer, would never buy an iPad, so it makes no difference whether or not it looks like one.

So are these the drives with the reduced warranties?

Well they would say that wouldn't they.

An attempt to blackmail us into quieting down about the poor conditions at their manufacturers'.

Dare to think: Office for Tux maybe closer than you think.

In Paisley, at a business centre, we get 2.8 if we're lucky.

Even when we do get 2.8, the modem rarely holds the connection long enough, so the IP profile never has a chance to stabilise at that speed (it takes 7 days).

Basically it's piss poor and we all know who to blame.

There are some unknowns here. The woman put the pictures up in 2010, 5 years after the divorce. They may have been taken soon after the divorce and only posted recently for some reason.

However, as it states that the t-shirt was purchased by the current boyfriend bought the t-shirt in 2009, they can only have been posted a minimum of 4 years after the divorce.

I have to ask, why she (and the boyfriend) felt it necessary to post these pictures on a public website, 4 years after the divorce? It sounds like she has moved on and found a new partner. Why he feels the need to highlight the fact that the ex-husband is an arsehole, is beyond me.

Perhaps the new boyfriend is getting his jollies provoking the ex-husband for some reason, or perhaps the ex-wife hasn't finished tormenting the ex-husband yet even though she's in a relationship with another man.

Not sure why the ex-husband is getting a hard time on this forum.

Considering retard means to delay or slow (something) down, it doesn't particularly make sense in this local parlance.

Articulatards

I've always used the bank assigned PIN, which seems random enough to me.

Simple solution, give you a PIN and don't allow it to be changed.

Wasn't the source code available at one point?

Anyone have a copy?

Just change the name of the product in China, not that big of a deal.

Sorry, you did say teaser? Seriously, what's teasing about that?

Meh.

At last, a sensible and just outcome in the UK, that uses technology intelligently to prevent the infringing of copyrighted works - NOT!

The higher you climb, the more your heads are in the clouds.

So much for the paperless office, again.

So their cash cow is bleeding because they haven't innovated, yet they want to cover up this laziness by using flaky patents to go after companies who have bothered to design modern software?

Gotcha

Bye Bye Backup Exec

Works for me, that's what I want. The simplicity of Android and the scope of Windows. Just get the form factor right and gimme a folding screen, please?

So are we paying more for our insurance because of these dullards and their TomTomfoolery?

Bakunin, what's this 'disk' you speak of?

Flash and VMWare View, how business centric. How about Word, Excel and Outlook? Seems to be what most business users want. Oh, and iTunes of course.

So which is it? disabling a number of Windows XP machines, or, machines were unable to boot Microsoft's browser (not that that statement makes any sense to me)

Are you refering to Windows XP as the 'browser'?

Make sense Reg

The following is very childish

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Not all of it is portable, but practically everything on the list is good.

Don't forget rkill and TDSSKiller

Regarding encryption, just Truecrypt a folder then choose that folder during the setup options, no?

But then again, perhaps you don't want the feds to throw you in gitmo for the rest of your natural for not surrendering your passphrase and you'd rather Google took the rap?

not gonna be any easier if you're tied in to a 24 month contract is it?

Perhaps the regulator should prevent this extortion instead.

How about, it's the Feds 'pretending' to be Anonymous, doing naughty deeds with the internet so as to get support for controlling the internet?
