    What's in your computer junk?

    I've just cleaned out some cupboards as i'm having a new set of fitted wardrobes installed, and I found a near mint, boxed HP iPaq  2210 PDA, with a 4GB CF drive and a Wifi SDIO card.

    What's for Lunch?

    Two years ago i was in New York, and after a entire day with no food I went to the pizza place down the street from my hotel and ordered a large pizza. The waiter looked me up and down, and simply said 'no'. He then pointed to another table and showed me the large pizza 4 were sharing, and I...

    What's for Lunch?

    I had a 'large' burrito from Tortilla, a small UK chain that does burritos/fajitas/tacos. I'm aware what what consider a 'large' burrito is probably a 'small' by US standards.

    Jake on Lowendtalk is a thief.

    Sign up and order something without paying then. As dubious as Mr Biloh may be, you should at least attempt to follow the instruction before suggesting he's mugged you off.

    Continuation of DotVPS brand - HTTP Group Proposed Take Over Cancelled

      I didn't intend to imply you were, I was the one making that suggestion (mainly based off the fact they started selling under the new brand/company before the deal was done). It's the sort of thing I'd expect from some of the less professional players in the market, but not from a company...

    Continuation of DotVPS brand - HTTP Group Proposed Take Over Cancelled

    Strange times. HTTPZoom always seemed like a pretty professional outfit in the past, so all of this seems a little bit odd.  Shame it didn't work out for you Jack, but from a consumer point of view I'd prefer there to be a bit more competition in the UK lowend market, so it's good you're...

    offended by "Balls Out" ?

    Next time go for the 'coffeehouse drinks' special - I'm thinking offers titled 'Tea-bagging' and 'Flicking the (coffee) bean'. Should be enough to tip the miserable sod(s) over the edge.

    VPN.sh - 50GB vpsBoard special - 13 locations - $2.79/m OR $21/y

    You can, but it's shit. The OpenVPN app automatically resumes connections whereas the native VPN feature needs to be manually activated every time.

    offended by "Balls Out" ?

    I wouldn't worry about it. Your complainant seems to have a habit of playing the grumpy old man of late.

    What do you use your Raspberry Pi for?

    I've got two Pi's running RaspBMC streaming video and audio from my NAS. Not terribly exciting I know, but a hell of a lot cheaper than buying 2 network media players. Once I pick up another one, I'm either going to use it for a mini-mame cabinet, or mount it onto the back of an X-Arcade...

    DrMike what happen to him.

    Based on some of the posts on his personal blog (which has been gone for a while now) he was very up and down emotionally and had had some difficult times in his life, just to counter-balance the 'not all there' comment.

    Woolwich attack in UK!

      There was rioting last night in Woolwich, about 300 in the streets apparently. I wouldn't be surprised if we see more, especially with the EDL and the BNP looking to make the most of the opportunity to spread their 'message'.

    Woolwich attack in UK!

      Really, who's coverage were you watching? The BBC stuff seemed pretty straight-forward, and the 'speech' from one of the killers made it pretty clear what their motivations were.

    Woolwich attack in UK!

    It's being termed a terrorist attack due to the motivation behind it, it was supposedly aimed at the armed forces and their families.
