Thank heavens
So I'm in London on a weeks training course. Is this place anywhere near Liverpool Station?
Just so I know to avoid it...

I'm looking forward to this like I am a good dose of the clap. Mind, saying that, anything Bay does makes me violant.
That first scene in the second movie where Prime jumps out the plane, why the fuck do you insist on stupid as camera rotations where you can't see what the fuck is going off?
Your style of filming is appaling. If I met a woman who sweated the way Fox did in both movies I'd send her to the doctors, it's unhealthy.
Still, I'd smash her backdoor in any day of the week.
Bill Gates, if you're reading this, if you want to save yourself 3 billion dollars and be known as the man that *reversed man made climate change*, take note.
Are you ready? It's quick, it's easy, can be done with minimal effort and with no damage to your wallet.
Wipe 2 billion people off the planet.
There we go wasn't that easy!!!
If there aren't people here to drive big 5ltr cars or fly around the world because they can then it's not possible to dump crap into the atmosphere.
Sterilised at birth, an IQ test before being reversed and only one child per couple gets my vote. Oh and no gingers. Unless they're fit... and willing to take their clothes off to entertain IT nerds like me.
Stop me if i'm wrong Lewis as you'll know far more about this than me.
Hosting three of our four subs in the same location mere feet from the surface of the sea would require a non-nuclear weapon to pretty much butt fuck our defence yes? Our always live sub isn't armed to the tooth and therefore would only scratch the surface of an all out war.
Now if I, a lonely 20something lad who watches to much South Park and not enough porn can figure that out, you don't think anyone who's actually planning an attack doesn't know this themselves?
We don't need nukes. Simple. Your desire to arm this country to Empire days frightens me.
I went to see it on the day of release and came away feeling all tingly at just how incredibly gorgeous it was.
I went back about three weeks later to watch it at Birminghams i-max thing and thought whilst visually impressive, it had a few holes in it.
By the stroke of luck I then managed to score a date with a fit girl at work who wanted to watch it so earlier this year I went back for a third time and released just how incredibly shit this movie is. I mean, there's shit, but then there's real shit. I found myself wanting to throttle every charecter, even the really fit smurf...
Still, I'll be the first to admit it, I'll go watch the sequel. And no doubt come away feeling dirty.
All Sony have gone and done is pissed off the ps3/Linux programming community, it's inevitable these little geeks will work tirelessly to crack it wide open, something Geoholt was likely no where near doing.
I'm seriously on the fence here. I did have Linux installed and darn tooten I used it for illegal activities. It was piss easy to rip a Blu-Ray and convert it to a nice DVD9 size hd movie, so much so I rejoined LoveFilm and had me a wild time. So for that reason alone, using Sony's own hardware to circumvent Sony's own Blu-Ray protection and avoid paying Sony's tax on Blu-Ray movies, taking this feature away from me sounds like common sense. And that's before anyone figures out how to play cracked games on it.
But then at the same time, as has been posted by millions of fans, this was an advertised feature, one that should not be stripped away from us, not without ramifications. Just reading the comments suggest they've lost a lot of custom by doing this.
One has to ask though, is this really as big as the moment they took backwards compatibility away from us? Sales seem to have picked up significantly since then and there were a dam sight more ps2 owners than there are ps3/Linux users. And it wouldn't surprise me if our American cousins are already starting legal action against Sony so backwards compatibility by software is added to keep us all quiet.
And I'm half tempted to sell it on ebay for a 250gb slim. I've a reasonable sized catalogue of PS2 games but long since got rid of my PS2. I dare say at some point Sony will either re-enable PS2 support on the new models or add them to the PSN as they are doing with PS1 classics.
I used to use Linux to rip Blu-Ray movies but the length of time it takes to extract, then compress to a decent size, it's just as easy to download off the net.
This model I have can be noisy at times. It's also a refurbished model as my previous one stopped playing discs. Which again puts me off keeping it.
I do love my PS3 though. And I'm only a casual gamer. I use it more for media streaming than I do for anything else.
It all sounds fair to me, I'd say fairer than Virgins throttle everything.
But as someone's already mentioned, what about SSL?
I only download from newsgroups and I do so using SSL encryption. How can they define the difference between legitimate SSL traffic and piracy without deep packet inspection and isn't that illegal?
I were a lowly helpdesk bloke back at the time. It tore a hole at the hospital I worked for. One has to wonder if the creative geniuses behind said viruses were aware of the damage it wreaked. Its one thing to take down a companies IT infrastructure, it’s another to risk the lives of patients. Given all drug administration is held on computers these days we were literally racing against time. We had many threatening phone calls from ward staff advising if things weren’t up and running again in minutes as apposed to hours lives would be lost.
Scary times.
There's no doubt at all you know a dam sight more than I ever will about the current state of the MOD or the rest of the worlds Military for that matter.
But it's so difficult to accept what you have to say as Gospel when I can't remember ever reading a single positive story about anything Blighty gets its hands on.
The US spend as much as they do on defence as it i, regardless of it been back door hand outs or in the lime light for all to see.
Even half of that budget put into usefulness such as space exploration would see us further ourselves.
Hey ho, nothing like having the biggest fucking gun in a firing squad ey, even if you are likely to shoot your ali.
10 minutes of forced foreplay, 5 minutes bouncing around on top of someone only to finish off sweaty with dried cum all round your knob.. Not attractive. Then you've got to talk about stuff afterwards. Who wants to talk?
I prefer the DIY job myself. Less messy, only takes a few minutes, I never have to worry about my hand enjoying it... Good times.
I think I need a new girlfriend.
This isn't going to get posted is it? Woe is me.
I'm running two of the older MyBooks, it was bloody hard work getting Twonky on the damn things so its a welcome change having it built in.
Does the reg have a breakdown of hardware? What CPU and ram is it running? The older ones couldn't handle too much going off at the same time, it took 3 days to shift 500gb to a desktop machine once upon a time,
I say long time, I was a long time user, I havent touched it now since July 2004 and have no intentions of doing it again. Not because it was crap, hell no, because I got tired of all the retoric crap of caining the hell out of the little things with complete randoms at some ones house till midday on Sunday, getting no sleep and looking like shit at work until Thursday.
Yes kids I was what they call an abuser, none of this poxxy 1 pill a week, hell no, 1 pill before I even hit the club then a further dozen before the weekend was out. Heck I even took them when going to the cinema (Lord of the rings - Two towers on pills is FANTASTIC!) Now ask me how many times I ended up in A&E having my stomach pumped. Or how many times I broke down at work and had to be sent home because I wasn't able to cope. Or how many relationships I lost to drugs. Or how many friends died. Or got sent to rehab. The answer is a big fat zero.
See the thing is, Pills will not kill you unless you have an allergy towards it. Dealers don't mix them with rat poison, thats a lie. Why would any self respecting business man want his customers dead? Its good old drowning thats responsible for the majority of E related deaths, look it up. And who's fault is it for these deaths? Thats right, its you Mr government. Why are you teaching children to keep yourself hydrated if you're "stupid" enough to take pills? Its your dodgy propaganda thats killing these kids. You need not drink any more or less than you normally do in any other situation.
Should this be downgraded to a class B? Hell no. Lets go even further, lets legalise it. It'd cut the stuff being mixed with ket and heroin (which unfortunantly it is), you could the shit out of it and you'd stop 13 year olds getting their hands on it. And I'm afraid to say they do. Because they're so cheap and they don't do the damage many would like you to believe.
Waste of money if you ask me. Actually that’s a lie, it’s a good idea to have a deterrent. The problem I have with nukes and indeed the armed forces is simply this;
We are an aggressive state, we have been for centauries and for as long as our head is up the arse of the yanks we shall continue to be.
With the exception of the Falklands we've not fought a defensive battle since world war 2 and even then the Falklands was a political move by Thatcher in order to raise public opinion of the Conservatives, it was a war that shouldn't have been fought and could have been fought in the court room.
We're only the target of rogue states because we're complete assholes with utter disregard to said "rogue states" way of life.
Pull all our forces out, keep our traps shut, throw no weight behind Americas continuing reign of terror and hey presto our enemies will disperse.
Nothing Twonky / ushare / media ctr won't do really then is it.
Though having said that I was tempted with one myself, play.com advertise it with mkv support which lets be honest, if you download, the chances are you download mkv's.
Nope, i'll stick to NAS with Twonky on thanks. Does the job for me.
Assuming the upgrade of the dongle3 thing (or whatever the heck it's called) could quite happily handle every man and his dog downloading 40gb blu-ray movies at peak time and at full speed that still negates the fact its fucking expensive as hell.
Cashing in on the fact no one can offer anything half as good as that me thinks.
Back in the real word you sharen't get a penny more off me until you lift the fair usage bollox. And even then you sharen't get an approved nod in your general direction until you fix the crap speeds during peak time.
And then of course you sharen't get anything off me because quite frankly 20mb is more than enough to fulfill my pirating needs. And believe me I'm a BIG pirate whore.
To be a little bit stupid maybe? Sure you can put a rocket together and triangulate the distance between blah blah blah and blah blah blah but if you're not willing to hack a colleague to death whilst waring a nappy or download dodgy videos then quite frankly you're not right for us.
These things are going to reside where exactly?
On a Navy ship? Thus they have to be fired into the atmosphere first of all to do their job wasting valuable time getting into the desired position to begin firing spit pellets off?
Or will they live on satellites thus break that whole no weapons in space pact?
Come on Obama, do the right thing, shut this crap down,
Man getting his coat because its cold in the office.
Always good news to hear further steps have been taken towards a fusion powered Earth.
Big shame is by the time its cracked and used main stream I'll no doubt be long dead from alcohol abuse. Should I be unlucky enough to knock out children they'll probably be retarded due to a low sperm count.
This post isn't going to make it is it, dam moderation.
(Yes it is. Damn contributors - Ed)
Do M$ make off the subscription service? Must be a fair whack. I'm not very good at maths so excuse me if I royally fuck this up.
If only of users subscribe to the gold service thats roughly 18 million users paying £5 a month.
£5 x 12 months = £60 a year.
£60 x 18m = £1,080,000,000.
Thats a fair whack if XP calculator did that right.
I did a stint at PC Service Call many a year back (what's now called The Tech Guys), the morons paid me full wages for 9 months after I left.
I'm paying it back in monthly installments of £15 (ETA, 30 years).
Topple the fuckers and its good times all round.
£20 for a memory upgrade?
£35 for a health check?
How's about do one.
