    So she is the one who keeps propagating the lies that you can only email screenshots as bitmaps embedded in Word documents!

    So either deliberate or incredibly bad coding for a financial site.

    Or incredibly deliberate bad coding.

    That sentence stub made my brain incredibly deliberately fall out of my ears.

    RTFA. It's one bunker inside a mountain.

    If the client choses to have this site as one of their on-/off-line backup areas, then more power to them for realising the importance of redundancy. That's not offered by this company, though.

    No, it's 4Mbps to who they decide you get 4Mbps to, not necessarily to who you want.

    If you're found to be incorrect, you can certainly expect a second taunting! If it is I in error, I shall certainly surrender myself to the nearest convent for a good spanking.

    Wow. You should really stop reading the tabloid press.

    Just listened to it too. I reckon it's "sons of a silly person". Most of the transcribed scripts on the next agree with me. Most, being the first three I found using Google.

    That's enough nerd pedantry for today, I think!

    The Bikini Atoll would be a large enough wall. Let's ship them there.

    I have never beaten my wife.

    I did not enjoy any of the adverts.

    Whoa, really had me on the ropes with that one!

  13. Re:I am glad I don't use twitter on Truthy Project Uncovers Political Astroturfing On Twitter · · Score: 1

    I use Facebook to keep in contact with old work colleagues. One of them recently posted that their daughter had just started potty training.

    I posted that link, and commented "I'm fairly sure that in 16 years time, your daughter will be a little freaked out that you publicly documented her first instance of not shitting herself."

    That would be son of a silly person. Further, he should have been told to boil his bottom.

    No nerd cred for you.

  15. Re:WTF on UK's National Rail Shuts Down Free Timetable App · · Score: 2, Interesting

    We should get the Japanese to run our national rail system. Their services measure lateness of trains in seconds instead of minutes.

  16. Re:WTF on UK's National Rail Shuts Down Free Timetable App · · Score: 4, Insightful

    They're probably afraid there will be a central database which shows just how regularly their services are late, and people will start claiming for ticket refunds based on that data.

    They really don't want that to be particularly easy, much less automated. All you'd need is to pick up the scheduled time and actula arrival time using this app, and you'd be well on your way to free train rides for life.

  17. Read it on UK's National Rail Shuts Down Free Timetable App · · Score: 1

    At no point in the first letter did Melanie state that it was free to use by the public and non-commercially. She may have assumed that the person already had a license for the non-commercial app listing timetable information, and wished for a commercial license.

    That's my take on it, anyway. IANAL etc etc.

    The first thing I do when I update AdBlock / NoScript etc is check that G-analytics and other default-whitlisted sites are still removed, as I did when I first read about them being whitelisted.

    Knowing is half the battle.

    Or, develop a good relationship with your children instead of once again relying on technology to babysit for you.

    Talk to your kids about behaving responsibly, and openly talk with them about their concerns, and yours.

    Yeah, it'll print whatever you can draw.

    Go on, draw a Klein bottle. And before you point me to a Wikimedia image, no. That's a 2D render of a 3D approximation of the 4D shape.

    I'd gladly pay a couple of hundred quid on the cost of a 3D printer to cover the cost of being able to download any car I want.

    Wait, I'm expected to buy the car plans and parts as well? It's lynch-mob time.

    When I mouse over your logo in the top left corner, the background image is replaced with a grey box of the same size. Checked in Chromium and Firefox on Ubuntu 10.10 and IE 8 on Windows. I say this to you as you seem quite heavily involved with the site.
