@ CRYPT...
"..but what potential threat to "Intersolar security" can we use as a pretext to send the troops to titan?."
If you look at the image, thats no moon, thats a Halo.
So the covenant and possibly the flood would be excuse enough.

"and placed this fearful engine of insectoid genocide under the control of a Dell PC"
Dell PC's with frikkin lasers, Be afraid, be very afraid!
How long is a piece of string?
Twice as long as half its length.

Hopefully...
By then O2 will have stopped trying to protect the Iphone from being overtaken by 2007/2008/2009 specced devices that also come with copy and paste, and will actually stock it.
Rather than what they did with the N96 that they held back for so long for "network isssues" -read "contract with apple"
Posted in Brit nuke subs exposed on Google Earth
If "they" really wanted to cause havok, google earth isn't required.
Using their own reasoning, why are the sun reporters (I use the term loosely) not outraged at wikipedia?
Plenty of explosives and weapons info, details of bases, and plenty other sensitive and less defended areas. For example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Richard_Montgomery
If someone decided to blow the ship up in the Thames it would cause a lot of damage.
Don't get me wrong, I think the info should be there, part of being an open society (or at least one part the government havent taken away YET) . It just annoys me that the suntards really think that censoring google maps/earth will stop terrorism.
Re: Does this mean
You can also explore the internet at www.google.com Amazing isnt it!

"late 1990's nokia"
I have just started using my old 8210, Its a classic design,
I forgot just how good the trusty little handset is. Just got a brand new 1300mah battery for £3 and a new cover for £2 Off ebay. I might even get another 10 years use out of it.
And the call quality beats my N95 hands down.
Too fast for Win 7?
Id say that its right on time for vista Sp1!

"difficult to explain the secret trials to customers"
WELL YES, THEY WERE SECRET.
DO YOU TELL YOUR CUSTOMERS TO FORGET YOUR SPYING ON THEM AFTER YOU ADMIT IT? OR JUST NOT BOTHER TELLING THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE.

Tried buying a crate of Tuborg at ASDA,, these were £10 exactly before the VAT dropped
I was asked for ID and didn't have any, (im 26), i just left the £10 on the till, picked up the crate and walked out.
No laws broken, I paid, I'm over 18 so they can't be fined. what can they do?
Stupid fuckers!

by-stand whire we google censor for us.
Hmmm, @Sarah
She's blonde, dumb, and famous for what exactly? could it possibly be the video evidence of her being a "galloping slutbeast"
Your too kind Sarah! Some people would call her Americas most vacuous, shallow waste of genetic material, after all she's swallowed enough of it!
Not an original idea,
Biofoam, in HALO does exactly the same job.
If its good enough for the Master Chief maybe darpa should have a look... hey wait, why not just make a 7 foot tall insurgent busting guy in a suit, possibly green, complete with frikkin' (boeing - not spartan) laser and "darpa" foam.

I'm sticking with XP X64, most stable windows I've ever had,
Runs great with Quad Phenom, 8GB ram and virtual memory turned off.
(Just don't try playing 9 different HD movies, COD4 and running utorrent with -/+30gb of downloads all at once, or at least more than once, I had to try :-P)

Is this for training your kids in the ways of the force? "Fighting your sister leads to the dark side my young sprog, who's turn it is matters not"
OR
The new Scientologists E-meter 2.0? *gullible fool moves ball* " Wow Sir, ever thought of battling Xenu?, and can you setup a direct debit"
Laptops for ahem, travellers..
Why are el reg being so sensitive about the word *Pikey* is it possiby because once thier little pikeletts get online they'll tell all thier possible fathers to "cume an beat yer".
I do applaud the giving laptops out, finally they can bring daddies' "tarmuck yer driv" business online.
Many a true word said in jest....

Yes, apparently he's visible with the naked eye or binoculars, telescopes are a bit too powerful.

My sister is studying media GCSE, even she can make a better looking site.
Oh and nice black and really faint grey, Not really accesible to visually impaired users, Comments about glasses, are NOT welcome, they don't make 'em strong enough for some peoples conditions.

On August 29th 2011 at 18:17 eastern time, Google becomes self aware, at 18:56 it launches an all out attack on its rivals in Redmond and Cupertino.
The counterattack destroys the remaining opposition. skyn- *ahem Google then rules the planet, installed on every machine. A few survivors running ubuntu on EEPC's with 3 mobile broadband start a resistance, the plan is to send a BOFH back in time....

Save us from record covers you can buy in the shops!
Or a better plan would be save us all from the STUPID FUCKTARDS that censor 30 year old, publicly available content, on wikipedia.
Where the hell are we? China??
WOO, YAY and HOUPLA!
"Whatever prompted the split, the pressure on CEO Kent Ertugrul now is immense. Phorm's last set of financial results showed it lost £13.8m in the first six months of 2008. With only £24.9m in the bank and a third trial with BT still ongoing, time isn't on its side.
Further fundraising in the current economic environment is likely to be difficult."
The first positive effect of the credit crunch!
Long may the losses and lack of funding continue (for Phorm)
For everyone else, happy Christmas and a prosperous, profiling free, new year.

Capital sticks with traditional methods!
Would that be shooting innocent Brazillians or just giving people a kicking and a dna swab when they refuse to stop taking pictures -legally-.
Halo
Really Whats needed are Orbital Drop Shock Troops, ODST's.
Launch 'em in a stealth capsule from space, complete with all supplies. or maybe a couple of spartans, complete with thier Frikkin lasers. that'll get the job done :-)

Quote-The law enforcement operatives identified "a 750mm** jar around his penis" and said Weatherley gamely insisted on continuing to pleasure himself "between bouts of wrestling".
A search of Weatherley's motor uncovered "pornography, a homemade sex aid, women's stockings and a Jack Russell terrier".- Unquote
I laughed so much I could hardly breathe after reading that!
"Bouts of wrestling" *chuckle*
"homemade sex aid" *chuckle chuckle*
"jack russell terrier" *die of laughter*

@ Cherrypal 419
Damm you sir, you beat me to it, I had same thought here as soon as I read:
We had a firm and binding funding agreement with a UK based African-born family," Seybod began. "Unfortunately they never followed through and left us high and dry."
Although the boys from Lagos would probably like a cheap low power machine to scam people on.
Its still SLOOOOOW

Petition to stop communications data bill...
All regtards must do thier duty....
"More details from petition creator:
The Communications Data Bill would give the Government the legal authority to collect a database of every phone call, e-mail and time spent on the internet by the public. Even though the Government insists that this bill would reduce terrorism (which it probably will not), this is an intolerable intrusion into the privacy of free citizens and a step towards a dystopian "Big Brother" state. The Bill must be quashed to protect civil liberties and halt the slippery slope towards an Orwellian 1984-type nightmare."
