Guilty as charged, m’lud. Although I suspect the internet being turned into a battlefield has kind of changed people’s behaviour.

That and Austerity fucking a lot of people over, of course.

Congratulations on surviving if you are still alive.

To everybody I pissed off – sorry.

Thread is now obsolete beacuse of change November 1st 2018.

You already know that probably. 🙂

I’m enjoying the last dying days of Fakebook… don’t see them holding out much longer, one of their ex-moderators just launched a class action lawsuit complaining about mental stress caused by watching so much beheading, child porn and torture.

Currently the hottest place in the solar system is reported as Culham, in Oxfordshire.

Back after a long standing love affair with an Android device.

Nice to see the old forums still about, I couldn’t access for a couple years (damn that security blanket).

If you’re on a hilltop, you don’t need to hide the receiver, you just need the right antenna.

(oops… but it’s OK, I don’t live on a hilltop. Can’t be me governor.)

A bit like all the State Stingray systems that dot London. They may look like cell towers but they’re really there to track subversive mobile phones to prevent a replay of the Poll Tax riot.

Tried it once in the West End when I needed some up front cash to buy some Big Issues to resell.

Made 3 quid all night. Most miserable horrible experience of my entire life.

Admitedly I did have a smack head decide to crash on my sleeping bag during peak period. For well over 2 hours. Ungrateful bastard then said “I’m off to my flat”. Turned it…[Read more]

Jim Marrs has been studying the subject of RV for some decades but I honestly don’t think he’s ever actually tried it. At least, in a double blind sense, where he was unaware of what the target was, and so was everybody else in direct communication with him, at the time he wrote down his impressions.

Also, I don’t think he can see the wood for…[Read more]

Wimps. Completely pathetic, over pampered brats.

How can we expect our young people to become successful tax avoide… er… entrepreneurs if they can’t even master that sort of algebra?

Oh wait, the teachers didn’t actually teach them algebra. That might explain it.

But dude, it’s ok. Now we have hunting rifles. And wigs.

Just as well really – different video was uploaded over the one I originally posted. That was nearly 2 hours long, the bogus one isn’t even 8 minutes.

Searches on the subject just revealed epic amounts of “woo woo” & fluff, overwriting the original scientifically based programme. You can find some references to it here;-

Ah! You forgot the important number 6!

6) Get somebody else to pay for them like a parent, guardian, or sports organization like a college sports team.

I think I read this wrong. Something like “I’ve buggered my fixing laptop”.

I still can’t make my mind up what you were trying to say but no doubt you’ll remember it if it’s important or perhaps if I give you money.

Plastic screwdriver? Breaking one? WTF are you doing with them? I’ve never broken one… at least, while trying to use one as a screwdriver.

… from components from outside the UK, yes. I reckon it’s a case of manufacturers can get better ore and coal from outside the UK cheaper. So they do.

Ozzy iron ore is $40 a tonne, it’s a lot cheaper than nicking existing road signs from anybody

Surely some mistake. There is no British steel anymore. Unless you are getting a one off from Sheffield Forgemasters or similar… and no steel is actually made from UK materials anymore. Sorry guv, you missed the boat.

Good news – there have been better designs made for PI boxes.

Most of the ones I’ve seen 3D printed have been awful. This one’s both good looking and robust enough for use.
