I used it once for 4 minutes.. as long as it took to realise what a load of crap it was.. to reboot a live linux disk and wipe the rather nice laptop that was spoiled with it and install sabayon..

I have done 30 since xmas.. not bad really after 30 years smoking the horrid things. I was going well until I got beaten up 3 weeks ago.. Needed that old friend to make me feel better then took 2 weeks to get rid of them again. It's possible.. I know it is, but addictions can come back and bite you ...

Sorry.. really bad day, but.. and it is but.. I can't see much point really.. they come asking about n00buntu and then get stroppy when they don't like the fact that something is being removed upstream from the parent distro.. Anyways.. take care of yourselves. I'm outta here because I can think of ...

And im afraid Janrocks XMMS has NOT been removed, its just you probobly didnt add the main source. errr.. excuse me?? I run debian full time and it has been deprecated from upstream after etch. ubuntu relates to debian by always being from the "testing/experimental" repos not the "st...

Sorry.. I'm a bubble burster here.. My experiences of vista so far are.. It is like a very badly set up unix system.. permissions are all over the place, and nothing works properly.. It's slow and bloated.. what a pile of ****. I have started turning vista machines away because they are just too muc...

the kind of scum we have walking the streets these days.. I say string them up.. in public.. Bring back public executions in the UK and lets have an end to these "for fun" killings. As for getting kicked out of the European Union.. so what? Our government doesn't dare to give us a vote on ...

All you need to be aware of is the UK customs have a nasty habit of sticking 17 1/2% vat on imports from the USA. They have been holding one of my orders since last November because the import duty/tax/whatever they want to make out it is.. wasn't paid before it arrived. I have cut my losses and lef...

XMMS has been dropped from the main debian path. They have moved to amarok. I believe xine is the same, as it has been replaced by something else, either totem-xine or totem-gstreamer. /me doesn't like ubuntu very much.. broken dependencies all round some days. the repositories you need to add are t...

Seen it myself as well.. Occasionally it's a virus that has been injected into the templates. The file will attempt to re-direct you to another site to download it's payload. I think IE is more vulnerable to this kind of attack. There was one of those circulating over the MSN chat networks a couple ...

I'm not surprised or even particularly shocked by any of this. The video is what it is. I ran a few consecutive frames through some image comparison software and the results were inconclusive.. It is just too poor quality to tell one way or another. There is a smear campaign of the axis invasion for...
