Re: Dead reckoning? MUH... how do do I into pen & paper?

I, for one, am not going to buy a Ring Laser Gyro of Ebay - it might Tweet it's status!

Parents can hide abortion, contraception advice from kids, thanks to BT's SEX-ED web block

Mr Young

Think of the children!

I do that quite a lot actually - the cringeworthy dial would be at 11 if one of mine ends up being a politician:)

Not from my point of view - when will the money printing machine break down?

Take an up vote for the good use of the word 'icky'

Mr Young
Go

And here was me...

thinking ISP's were simply data pipes! I can imagine a phone getting tapped like in spy movies easy enough but blocking a phone call because I use a naughty word? OMG - do I have to go back to modem speeds or buy a satellite off Ebay to get round this control freakery stuff?

Miss Piggy?

Did she slap him with a rocket taking off in the background for the not selfie photo? Get forensics on the case right now!

Re: Meh, an armoured HUMVEE will be cheaper.

I don't know - a bit more battery and motor tech with some extra carbon fibre then your feeble fleshy door size standards don't matter anymore (apart from the lintel falling on your head on the way through maybe)

Don't worry, bears of the future will appreciate the heroic efforts of these early pioneers - "Today I'm going to rip some humans throat IN SPACE!". I feel a little scared now...

Snowden journo's partner wins partial injunction on seized data

Mr Young

Did you see...

Theresa May squirming every time she mentioned the word 'terrorist' on the BBC news? Good - so did I.

Bradley Manning* sentenced to 35 years in prison

Mr Young

Have I got it wrong with the units?

I'd guess grassing up a superpower deserves around 35 months probation? Fuck ye - lets get him out of it - FLAME ON!!!

Essential maintenance website down for, er, essential maintenance

Re: Liar!

surely the quote 'order a shed' makes it sound almost believable?

Mr Young
Thumb Down

Their site is so shite that...

...somebody else really should be "diy.com". I'll buy that for a dollar etc

Guardian lets UK spooks trash 'Snowden files' PCs to make them feel better

Mr Young
Mushroom

I'm increasingly convinced...

Governments have 'something to hide' (how innocent of me to take this long); Detaining partners of journalists "just because" stinks of total fucking hypocrisy when all I hear is 'I've got nothing to fear'. Well fuck them and stop abusing all of us in anyway you can think of thanks...

Manning's max sentence cut, may only spend up to 90 years in the cooler

Mr Young
Devil

Re: I hope so

He must have done something really fucking serious to deserve that comment? Myself - I'd save the 90 year sentences for war criminals tried in a court of law (must maintain faith etc) with proper oversight!

BRUCE WILLIS (ad) DIES HARD (in Sky broadband telly fib ban)

Mr Young

Re: Whats new?

Indeed - I could be wrong but I understand the line rental always goes back to BT whoever you give the payment to? Since it's their line fair enough. The next question I pondered was 'is my line rental somehow subsidizing a fecking tv sport channel in some way?' . Not acceptable - in fact I think the BBC news (for what it's worth) should be sport free as well!

Yours deluded etc

BT's not at home to Mr Profit, but its lordly boss probably isn't too fussed

Hi dephormation

It does seem really difficult to avoid this mass surveillance - in many ways I think humiliation may be the ultimate answer? I've rarely sometimes considered listening in (say spouse or child) and discarded the idea on moral grounds so where does that leave people that feel the need to slurp every little byte?

Indeed

Every time I find myself wanting to buy a great TV the thought of adverts soon stops that idea - even having to press a button on the remote to skip them pisses me off
