Turnstile System for select students access
SpuffMonkey replied to Shadow_Walker's topic in Hardware
Again - don't bother - we had them for a while, but they just didn't work, kids jumped over, wriggled under, lent each other cards and they were a risk should you need to do a swift evacuation - complete waste of money. They all went for scrap. -
I agree with you about S2 of Mr Robot - I was a bit disappointed after S1 Walking Dead I enjoy, but I have to switch my critical faculties off while watching, else I'm always thinking "surely all the petrol/bullets/etc would've run out by now" - the zombies are just back story now - its more post apocalypse survival now - though I think they would be scrapping round in a very basic agrarian lifestyle by now - more like in the 1970s BBC series - Survivors - for those of us old enough to remember it

It had my full wheelie bin off down the street 3 times today - had to wedge it in position with heavy planters...

I think Taboo has got better over the series - didn't much like it to start - but now eager to see how it finishes

To me - it looks like a similar wiring set up to a bathroom extractor fan that has a timer - you have two lives, one of which acts as a signal to turn off and the other which keeps the unit running until the timer switches off - the switch is to isolate. As above - if you don't know what you're doing - get in somebody who dpes - cos this stuff can be dangerous to you and your house - and that would be a dangerous and expensive mistake!

Just reading Railhead by Phillip Reeve - very good - loved his Mortal Engines series
-
My garage is full of boxes of computer garbage - I was rootling through just the other day to find a spare monitor cable - and saw SCSI cables, parallel printer sharers and other odds and siods that'll never be used again - I must get round to getting rid!

Just watched the Santa Clarita Diet - zombie flesh eating sitcom! It had potential, but never reached it in my opinion... I was a bit of a Justified fan - but seeing Mr O gurn through various sitcom upsets was a bit of a disappointment
-
I always like the Labours of Her-cules - but all these are a problem for the autodidact I think..

It used to be a zoo when we used to go to Tenby on holiday as kids! I can recommend it for a holiday with kids - the beaches are great and the town is still quite pretty!

I watched the whole lot and quite enjoyed it - though the jumping into parallel dimensions through what appears to be "interpretive dance" was a little strange to say the least!

Just binge watching Braindead - good fun and explains a lot of the discussions we have in the Politics forum

As others have said - it depends on how far away you will sit and how big a screen you are going to want. Personally I find that in our smallish room - I can't see any difference between standard and HDTV on a 37" screen. As above - get your Smart features separately - the TV manufacturers are very poor at keeping features up to date and stuff just stops working over a fairly short time frame - at least with your own box you can update

Just finished The Essex Serpent, which disappointed me - bit of a soppy story in the end with quite a few untied ends...imho Did read Wolf By Wolf and Blood By Blood by Ryan Graudin - highly recommend them as teenage readers - the action zips along! Currently started the Travis McGee books by John McDonald - from the 1960s - heavily influences the Jack Reacher books (according to Lee Childs on a radio thing I heard) - enjoying it a lot at the moment
-
Just finished watching The OA, quite strange but I enjoyed it - not what I was expecting, but worth the effort I thought

Just get the drivers off Compuserve... -
That would certainly be the neolib solution, which works well for the captain until the pirates who got nothing kill the captain anyway because they are severely pi$$ed off - pretty much the situation we are swiftly arriving at in our western democracies at present

Do you think a 386 chip will be powerful enough to run a server for 25 staff? (it was)
