Great as allways, the start of another ware between the PFY and the BOFH? This could get messy.

/awaits further twists

Not Surprised

Having recently upgraded "Galaxy Note", they seem to be the only quality alternative for those who dont want a fruity phone, HTC are looking good, but Samsung seem to be ahead of the game ATM.

just finished first play through....

....... And i cant see what all the negetive fuss is about no spoilers, but the combat is engrosing, the story touching in parts and really funny in others but is paced to perfection, the ending thoughtfull and not to over the top.

Will give it a rest for a little the start my renegade play through at a slower pace, well all 3 games can take some time:)

Ive played some sequels in my time as a pc gamer, take any one of the Mass effect games and they are good on their own, taken as a trilogy the whole pushes it past anything in gameing and i am really glad i had to re do my play through from 1-2-3 made everything freash and so much more enjoyable, multiplayer? havent even tried it and was happy with the outcome i got this time.

Even if you dont buy it now promise yourself youll get all 3 at some point in sales etc and enjoy the ride.

Well.........

As one of those LEA support bods who apparently had no idea, i spent most of the 6 years working in primary schools i got at most 1 full day a week to main tain upto 60+ machines 30 laptops and 2-3 servers and printers and often asked these same questions, why dont we do vanilla systems? why are we locked in? why not linux etc etc etc ,many many times. No one was interested.

Duff hardware more so the recent cc3/4 kit, and having to bypass all the god auwfull admin front ends to get anything working.

Co workers had no spark or intrest in IT.

The cuts came and allmost all schools slashed their budgets so when the reductions came i took the money and left.

It wasnt just RM it was LEA BSF and BECTA all had a good slurp of the gravy train and left those trying to help in the school with their hands tied and acting as proxies when things went bad between the management and the schools and getting no support from anyone, glad im out of it and from what i saw in the schools i weep for the future.

The way things are going this will end up on a 32 or 48 month contract, still cant justify a 2 year contract when phones seem to break on me:(

SWG pre CU FTW

It wasnt the lag fest of corronet or the naf missions. It was the community making your own towns and making the world around you, spending an hour sorting out a set of orange padded armour some rebel scum had msgd you about simply because i hannt done it.......... now this? hmm im a big ME fan and am eyeing a full play through once more before 3 comes out, do i wanna sub to that type of game? not with BF3 and Skyrim i dont:P

Im about lvl 15 and just starting to get to grips with everything, just wandering about makes for a good few hours entertainment on an evening.

sky+ Nevermiss.tv

A combination of sky+HD for the front room and nevrmiss.tv installed in the bedroom covers everything i want to watch hardly ever have to sit through a ad, gave up on the myth tv/mediaportal setups as i moved to an area with bad freeview reception that about covers it for when im not gaming etc there are very few must sit down and watch shows, even then if they are on a comercial channel we will start watching 15-20 after start so we can blat through the comercials and by the end be caught up for the last section of the program.

Ah that would be....

that game they play with that bag of air i never watch.

@Steve K

"Wasn't that the plot of the 1980's childrens' film "The Last Starfighter"....?"

well almost but with this they could pipe the live stream from the drone direct to your own computer screen as the AC said at the top, no need to fly across the galaxy and sit in a prototype and be shot at buy the entire opposing fleet , while you wait for them to get in range of your really super duper weapons system, you could just sit in your pants sipping coffee and head shoting the enemy of the day. gives a whole new term to bonus level.

wrong pic

That's Sir Humpy not the Rt Hon. J Hacker MP. he's just a secretary under or over can remember.

More dwarfism

LISTER: We're going to die, aren't we? How much food is there?

RIMMER: There's half a bag of soggy Smoky Bacon Crisps, a tin of mustard

powder, a brown lemon, three water biscuits, two bottles of vinegar and

a tube of Bonjella gum ointment.

LISTER: Gum ointment?

RIMMER: Yes, it was in the first-aid box. It's that minty flavour. It's

quite nice.

LISTER: It's quite nice if you smear it on your mouth ulcer, but you

can't sit down and eat it.

RIMMER: You may have to.

LISTER: That's it? There's nothing else?

RIMMER: Just a Pot Noodle. Oh, and I found a tin of dog food in the tool

cupboard.

LISTER: (Sighs.) Well. Pretty obvious what gets eaten last. I can't

stand pot Noodles.

/coat the black bomber jacket and the furry hat:)

Google News

well when looking at google news the section on tech had this story as its main header at the time and right next to it was the cover in thumb nail form, so if it is illeagal does that meen google are guilty of making it available? just a thought

yes!

I still use "Greetings" when i meet people, i just dont say the full "Greetings Programs" :)

/coat mines the blue one with a frisbee on the back

Only those that squark.....

... the loudest have the juciest worms, allways loved the shock of users when there mouse started moving after riniging up for support, shame i dont do it much anymore:(

excelent BOFH user interaction, wonder if he had to break out the emergency LART!

Pr0n on Mobiles

while i can apreciate the usefullnes of your own low ish quality amature pr0n studio available in most handsets these days, with such high storage capacities people never have to delete files (esp jpg's) because by time its full there onto the next model etc, this can lead to this sort of thing, people these days just arnt concerned with digital tidyness, and assume things will just take care of themselves. tho for a friend of a friend his mistake was to plug his mobile to his pc via usb to add some mp3's unknown to him Googles Piccasa happily helped itself to the nice store of snaps on his phone and sorted it out for him, unfortunatly this placed them in amongst his family snaps, and when his mrs found said snaps and realised she wasnt in them but certain parts of him were oooo the hilarity ensued:)

be carefull ;)

/finally i can use Paris!!!

Read this

great read, made me rethink my position, used to think there should be loads out there, after reading that i reckon we will most likely find an empty universe, empty of inteligent and technological civilizations that is.

re:i want one

@Tim

If you could get a woden floor gondola and attach a rope ladder to it, you could grow a thin pointy moustache, wear a floppy hat and jump and summersault everywhere to a techno beat!. Tho youd have to use peddle power coz its green.
