    ahh,nice to see how many /Âers have such a wide hands on experience of our wonderful benefits system. please show me a western country that does not have a percentage of its workable population as long term unemployed ? most folk who break into their rent payments do it for kids bills,such as new shoes,school trips,after school clubs and classes etc etc,you just hear about the scumbags,not the ordinary parents who have nowhere else left to turn in emergency with the end of crisis loans,which dwp allowed to be be very badly abused by a very small number of people as an excuse to just close the whole scheme,even though most folk paid them back. i suppose they could go the payday loan route and bankrupt themselves totaly,quicker. reminding folk again that high street banks still charge patday

  4. audio on Intel's Knights Landing — 72 Cores, 3 Teraflops · · Score: 1

    how would one of these do for software synths and audio processing,from my past use,these appear to use up any and everything you can throw in a pc,some of them need fat gpu's as well on top of as much cpu/ram as possible.

    Brian Bates = the way of the weird. its a good read and reminds/teaches folk that there is more to life than just science,tech,good solid explainable ideas,some things in life are not as easily explainable.

  6. Cheap panic button on Putting a Panic Button In Smartphone Users' Hands · · Score: 1

    bluetooth headphone dongle paired to phone. mapped mine so long push on stop button triggered wifi to signal local wifi network local site security where i was and that i had problem. long push play button and phone then did local wifi and phone to offices on and off site that i had serious problem and please send cavalry/coastguard/ghostbusters etc etc. mine was easy to do because i was a lone worker on a bt site and being bt they had a very good local wifi network of course and there was private security guards permanently on site but would be fairly simple to set up for routine visit sites and is still better than nothing if no local cover/aid available. with newer more powerful phone you can do a lot more now, such as use as a proximity dongle, better gps fixes, better voice command, more button mapping (one for coffee delivery)

    well enough folk around the world everyday get away with it,if this data had no value,the price just would not drop,so they must have some worth in the real world,if we go by average police catch rate of say 33% for this type of crime,thats a lot of cash or goods that are from other folks account. you have to use your imagination.
