Re: He got off lightly compared to Tufty.

Grey squirrels are disease-riddled cretins that wiped out most of the native red squirrels. I absolutely support these Meerkats doing their national duty to stamp out consume these fluffy menaces.

"Seriously new tax or not does anyone think that the megacorps are going to walk away from the potential profits of the worlds 7th larget economy"

We're the 5th largest economy in GDP terms, but your point still stands.

"So, you're suggesting, rather than simply ignoring the little red text for a few days the user should completely change their operating system, then spend time finding decent alternatives for all the software they use (which may or may not exist), then learn a completely different workflow and set of system admin skills because of a small transient issue? It does seem a little overkill."

I'm suggesting anything except Windows at this point (heck, even use Mac if you prefer). Windows is becoming so unstable and untrustable with your personal files that the alternatives are all much better. Every week few days there's another report of a massive bug (usually because of Microsoft not quality testing anymore) deleting people's files or fucking something up drastically.

"You get screwed over and over by microshaft and yet seem to believe this all a laughing matter"

Yeah, it's bloody hilarious. You keep getting screwed over and still stick with Microsoft. There are other operating systems out there. Are we all supposed to ignore this and not point out the obvious to spare your feelings?

Re: Just go Linux

The best way to upgrade Windows!

RE: h4rm0ny

"Honestly, she is not fit to be in charge of anything."

Hence, why she's so high up in Labour. She's absolutely incompetent, and that makes her perfectly qualified to be at the top.

"While my quick healing and long strong claws lean more to the Wolverine side, I keep them blunt. It's safer for all that way. And in this current heatwave, a keyboard made of butter would just be a sticky puddle on the floor."

A sticky, delicious puddle...

RE: onefang

"Touchpads loathe me and my long strong fingernails. My home keyboard has deep gouges in some of the keys"

Is your keyboard made of butter, or is that you Wolverine?

Re: Who would have thought

"I think that we are lucky in the UK at the moment that discrimination is not the issue that it was 50 or more years ago"

You're joking right? Even as a minority you can see the Western world is being geared up more and more to discriminate against straight white men as much as possible. The goalposts have only been shifted buddy, not removed.

RE: Scott

Australia has compulsory voting. You can be fined for not casting your vote.

I actually like that system, since it shuts up those people we all know who complain about politics, but never bother voting. If you don't like the system, vote to change it, don't just complain.

Re: Sqlartist

Would a tinfoil hat protect you from these hackers and miscreants Sqlartist?

Finally a conspiracy theory where a tinfoil hat is plausible!

"It takes a special kind of c*nt to hack and otherwise mess with someone's life saving medical device"

Or your average intelligence service...

Yes...And this is a Christmas Tree...

Re: RE: Forget It

I've a few more suggestions if Facebook wants more ex (Or soon to be) politicians (All ironic of course):

Tony Blair as head of Middle-East public relations...

Gordon Brown as head of accounting...

John Major as head of Human Resources...

Theresa May would make a good coat rack...

RE: Forget It

And hire Ed Miliband next as Chief Bacon sandwich eater.

Re: Eight times brighter than the Moon?

"Here's a picture of the Earth and Moon taken together which gives a better idea of it's colour and relative brightness"

Wrong picture mate. Here is the correct one

Re: price, or it didn't happen...

Or £350 when it launches in the UK...

Re: Common platform is sometimes better

"Android is after many years still a work in progress"

Three guesses who's never used Android before. Even Android 1.6 was/is famously able to do more than iOS.

Re: 2-week battery life

"It's no different from putting petrol in your car: you do it when it is getting low or because it's a convenient time"

Don't you refuel cars as often as you would charge an iphone? Every 8 hours.

Re: Photo, or it didn't happen.

"This watch is resilient to accidents because of its ceramic bezel design, stainless steel shell and DLC coating"

DLC coating? Fucking microtransactions in everything these days...
