And all well within a single lifetime

I remember the days when having a telephone was uncommon, being in the phone book was a status symbol. Otherwise you were generally "unfound".

Now we have politicians scrambling to know everything we are doing and with whom.

All inside a single lifetime. I shudder to think what the next generations will be forced into.

Must go

I need to take a Captain Cook at me chooks to get some fresh bum-nuts...

Like the Apple watch...

Cool, but ultimately pointless.

Living in a bubble

<<< POP ! >>>

Ouroboros

The GOP is slowly disappearing into it's own void.

I'm not complaining, mind.

Dingbats

See title

Stormy weather

I've already predicted whether I will weather Win10.

The sun'll come out

Tomorrow

Bet your bottom dollar

That tomorrow

There'll be sun!

Desperately seeking relevance

Remember: This guy believes in demons, exorcism, bigotry towards the LGBT, bans against contraception and divorce plus magic biscuits, etc.

He is not exactly up to date.

All data are equal

Some more than others.

All he's got

Malcolm is a truly hollow man.

All he really has going for him is the 'perception' in the media that he is some kind of Internet guru-master-jedi.

If porn is so bad

Why did [insert deity] make our arms just long enough to...

Finally, a GOOD religion

All inclusive

Non discriminatory

Takes the piss out of itself

and best of all:

Pirates!

If passed

Just imagine the associated detection, enforcement and court costs.

It would make the war on drugs seem like a school project.

Reserve the last 5 rows for phone-a-holics

That's where all the (ahem) action has always been anyway.

Quick, Reboot

Oh, not that QR code..........

See you next time around!

Surely some of the (now radioactive) detritus would stay on the same relative path.

A found USB drive?

Think: dog turd.

There is no "clean" end.

Swedish servers?

Bork, bork, borked.....

No Swedish Chef icon?

What next?

A bill to print more money to end poverty?

New bandwidth terminology

- Inadequate

- Largely inadequate

- Grossly inadequate

- Non existent.

Fake CEO's ?

What is the world coming to?

But all those Nigerian Princes, they're legit, right?

"is renowned for illicit and illegal trade, unmonitored and anonymous"

Oh the Dark Web!

I thought the article was referring to the world of international money laundering and tax evasion.

Now, where's my Panama hat?

A new low for a politician?

Blame your own kid?

This

It's articles like this that keep me coming back to the Reg.

Religious bigotry

Or is that a tautology?

Easy mistake to make.

FFS, when will these fools grasp the concept that NOT EVERYONE subscribes to their out-dated belief system.

Feel free to bigot away as much as you like, just let the rest of us live in a modern, civilised and inclusive world. Please!

Data wars!

Tin-foils hats set to: stun!

Alternate headline

"Trump fail"

Says so much.

Bring back Time Team!

This seems as good a justification!

Laying cable across an ocean

In some ways it seems archaic but at the same time, it's a huge feat of engineering.

Nice article Richard

Good detail.

"The star spins once every 1.2 seconds and the star it feasts on orbits it every 1.3 days."

So that's what the Andromeda Strain is.

Ahhhhhhhh

No

Ruby off the rails

Well done that geek.

Not quite old enough to drink*, so I'll have his.

* who am I kidding, he's from Manchester...

Guns eh, America

How's that working out for you?

You know what I'm thinking....?

What? You don't?

Hmmmmm, must destroy thinking ASAP!

Apple updates

I have found it best to stay one update behind, at least for a week or so.

I'm looking at you too, iTunes.

Land of the free *

* conditions apply.

At least they know where THAT is

Yes?

Pretentious? Moi?

Come the zombie apocalypse, families like these will be the first in the pot.

The puppy will be for afters....

Yikes

We've all worked on projects like this.

The bigger they are the bigger they fail.

Peter Dutton?

Government?

Commercial interests?
