Fullbeem

Inside for 6 and a half years?

Considering he has been inside the building for 6 and a half years, he is still maintaining a good amount of vitamin D from natural sunlight it seems. Im sure he has been sneaky in and around Harrods next door for dinner. Doesnt seem the type to live on pot noodle, but i could be wrong.

Hoping the future fascist UK has places like Steel Harbour, Cider City, LagerTown. I'll be a resident of Ale Cross. Lagertown would be too gassy for me.

Half a terabyte in your smartmobe? Yup. That's possible now

Dashcam

I would'nt want to use a microsd card of that capacity in a dashcam.

Had too many 32GB card fails and become write locked due to overuse.

How many Routemaster bus seats would it take to fill Wembley Stadium?

Re: This concerns me....

She won but as long as the broadcast has no pre-recorded footage or any Premier League titles etc can she feel safe. My understanding anyway, and i might be wrong.

Virgin Media hikes broadband, phone prices by five per cent

Fullbeem

The most basic fibre broadband package they do is 50Mb for £31

How about a 20Mb for £20, or even 10Mb for £10

I dont need 200Mb downstream, and certainly dont want a phone line.

(Moving into my new flat this weekend)

TalkTalk to swallow £35m ‘financial impact’ after attack

Fullbeem

Dido cannot give a meaningful answer

And they let her sit on one the BoE Court Commitees. Lets hope she doesnt give any meaningful answers to that also.

Trident test-shot startles West Coast Americans

Fullbeem

So where did it land or what was left of it? What goes up must come down.

Surely launching the thing out and back into the Pacific would have been better but as said above, China or Russia might have made a phone call.

I apologise and beer o'clock is in 1 hour.

(This comment has been checked for grammer)

Fullbeem
Facepalm

This why we cant have nice things

I seem to remember the government making alot of noise in 2014 about the UK not having enough cyber security professionals. Come 2015 and after 2 (maybe 3 if i include BG) massive IT security breaches (TT & CPW) we still playing catchup and we not got enough cyber security professionals.

Well its the British way I assume, we queue, we crap at football and we crap at IT Security generally speaking. Im off to the pub at lunchtime me thinks.

Find me that Capt JL Picard facepalm image.

History repeating

Any one know if the teen that got arrested and charged back in 2011 for the Lulzsec/Anyonymous hacks now is working for BAE systems/GCHQ or was a fall guy for that.

TalkTalk attack: 'No legal obligation to encrypt customer bank details', says chief

Fullbeem

Holy sh*t. They have no legal obligation to encrypt customers data!!

Can see the CEO and CIO losing their jobs and Talk Talk being taken to the cleaners.

Surely the data protection act must have something they can pin on them here about protecting the data they hold about their customers.

Apple hypegasm countdown. What will the new, big iPad ACTUALLY be called?

Amazon listens to MORE of your private stuff

Fullbeem

And there was me watching Enemy of the State last night on BBC3

Followed that up with Skyfall obviously for the hacking aspect.

CIOs: What tech will be running your organisation in 2020?

Fullbeem

Agree pretty much the same stuff as got now. Everyone will still be driving cars powered by petrol and diesel so why would computing change so much.

iPhone and iPads will still be being used, Apple may have fixed their iOS to actually propertly work with Exchange and those activesync issues may have been ironed out.

A department within my company may have a VR headset or 3 to use to visualise upgrades and refits that we conduct to properties we own.

I think/hope the cost of printing will come down in the future as technology gets better.

Is that the bottom line here?
