HTH.

Re: Only satisfied customer?

I've been with TT since '08, and I'm just about to sign up for another year. They always give me a cheaper deal than the year before, and my 22Mb line has never given me any problems.

Until this weekend...

You are not alone, there's two of us! ;o)

P.S. Seems fine today, back to its usual nippy self.

Re: "you'll regret that"

"Oh dear."

Wasn't that Worms?

Multi-player Worms is the best game ever!

</Armageddon>

@Rawr.

Correct Sir. Certainly for your first paragraph.

I know that old Land Rovers had handbrakes that worked on the rear drive shaft, so if it was in 4WD it was a 4 wheel handbrake...

Re: It's amusing to watch...

Biter bit?

Re: If you want cheap

+1 for the emachines jobby. I'm using one as my general pc. Low power consumption, more than powerful enough for general net stuff, plus HDMI and optical audio output. Not too good for a build machine though. Apparently, it's an Acer inside.

I paid £120 for mine. Rats.

Optional title here.

Plop.

Glug.

Fin.

Re: No need for lots of base stations - leaky coax

Spot on David!

I worked underground during the construction of the channel tunnel, and can confirm that they used a "leaky feed."

30+ reception everywhere. DSC too.

Best money I ever earned.

@ David Hicks RE: Stemcor

Perhaps a more relevant question would be "how does a poorly paid MP manage to acquire £1,800,000 worth of shares in said company"???

Seems the obvious icon.

Re: I will have to revise my numbers as well.

Pffftt.

Hands up who's surprised...

Re: So basically a lot of bling and nothing else...

Shame it took you so long to realise how little its customers mean to most companies after they have your money. (Even your "friends" at Microsoft.)

Even the fuckers that then expect you to be repeat customers.

Welcome to the modern world!

Icon hand crafted in the U.K.O.G.B.A.N.I. Minimum price, 45p per unit. (50p for the affluent Jocks.)

It looks just like a Telefunken U47...

You'll love it!

Re: Time wasted

Thanks for the link. Takes me back to my childhood.

Is that old Lightning still rotting away by the side of the A1?

Double yawn...

The first Twatter posting was at 11:41 AM - 23 Nov 12.

Is this a time zone thing, or time warp?

XTree Gold?

Now that was a decent file manager. And it would run off a 1.4M floppy!

Re: Hmmm

734 votes now, and rising fast...

Hope you Merkins are behaving yourselves! ;o)

@David Hagood. Re: Print version

I've been coming here for years, and that's a new one on me.

Thanks.

Have a little drinkypoo, and a thumb up. ;o)

@ Thorne

You know the Daily Mail comments section?

This isn't it.

Re: Vista

Bob 4.0?

Re: Me Gusta.

Schadenfreude Trevor?

;o)

re: and the "Unrelated Racist Commentard Award" goes to.....

If you think that's bad, you should have a shufti at the BBC HYS comments about the 3p fuel duty rise. (Yes,really.)

It's all the fault of illegal immigrants and dole scroungers, apparently. Oh, and those greedy, inconsiderate bastards with kids.

Shudders.

Re: Well I use....

Just add http://deb.opera.com/opera/ to your sources list and Bob's your uncle, Fanny's your aunt.

HTH.

Busses?

Don't worry laddie/lassie, you're not the only one in class to get that wrong.

Saw it spelled that way on a road sign near my home. How I laughed.

It's buses, by the way.

Re: Still waiting for a candybar phone with WiFi-3G bridge

My trusty semi-retired 6310i could pair and share internet to my Palm TungstenT5 PDA over Bluetooth in about 2005...

Or IR if I remember correctly.

Shame about Palm...

You lucky, lucky bastards...

Due to health problems, I can no longer partake of these porcine pleasures. But if I could, I'd have to say that the A90 beast wins on simplicity. Slightly overdone for my taste, as previously commented upon.

It could only really be modified with the addition of some lightly fried, wafer thin sliced, lambs liver.

Fuck, fuck, fuck. I WANT BACON!!!

Re: Whats with the colour?

That's brune, not bleurgh.

And your spelling is merde.

;o)

Re: Can't bloody wait for mine....

Andus, I've just had another Pi delivered by Farnell.

Took two weeks from order to doorstep...

You might want to cancel the RS order. ;o)

HTH

Re: Sheesh

Or maybe he just broke one of their laws...

Stranger things have happened.

Re: So you want to claim damages from a company found to copy everything in sight...

Upvoted for the irony. And the chuckle.

Think you should have used this one.

@Katie re: just go check my tor connect again.

If you must download things you shouldn't, please think about using a VPN or proxy service, rather than the TOR network. TOR really isn't designed for torrenting.

Thanks.

A TOR bridge relay owner.

Thank you Malcolm...

I think you summed things up quite nicely there.

I suggest you send your bill to Apple's lawyers. :o)

@ Toadwarrior Re: If they rename it pussy fart, I'll buy two copies.

I won't buy (or pirate) any copies, no matter what they call it, but that made me LOL.

Cheers!
