  1. One word - FRUITLOOP!! Couldn't stop laughing throughout his ridiculous tirade
  2. BBC News - JD Wetherspoon to open first motorway pub on M40 Says it all really about this country. Why on earth would anyone think that opening a pub on a Motorway Service station is a good idea???
  3. Watched it, skipped through the install routines for xp and later and was pretty disappointed he didn't manage to get Doom 2 running natively. Not bad to watch though, interesting to see how windows transfers OS settings during upgrades.
  4. I was going to write a sentence full of grammatical error's, but I just thought that leaving the one in there would be enough!!
  5. How many Teacher's could pass this Grammar Test?? Courtesy of the Beeb BBC News - 10 questions on grammar I took the test and got 2 out of 10!!
  6. Why? What relevance to the topic?
  7. Assume you are not a United fan then? English Football will not be the same. This is a huge loss for the game. 26 Years of success deserves some respect surely???
  8. Absolutely gutted about this. I'm a United fan but as a football fan the sport has lost one of the most influential managers it has ever seen. Don't know what else to say really!!
  9. CERN have put the very first website back online: The World Wide Web project Not very appealing based on Modern day sites but you can see how revolutionary it was. Thank You CERN for releasing WWW to the masses for free. Happy 20th Birthday WWW
  10. Is it just me or were you expecting some elaborate system which opened the filing cabinet drawers to the correct location??
  11. Hi all I have been working on a batch file for exporting wireless profiles. The file i created yesterday worked great, however as normal I left work and then immediately thought of a flaw with it. I have been trying to fix the flaw this morning though and have come up against an issue. My menu options don't seem to be working. I have butchered another script i have that works to create this but tbh i don't understand enough about batch files to work out what is wrong. Working export script (before my changes): set wlanfld="C:\WirelessProfiles" if not exist %wlanfld% md %wlanfld% echo off netsh wlan export profile folder=%wlanfld% key=clear setlocal enabledelayedexpansion for /r %wlanfld% %%a in (*.xml) do ( set oldName=%%~xna set newName=!oldName:~28! ren "%%a" "!newName!" ) Working Import Menu file: @ECHO OFF :listwlan SET index=1 SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION cls echo. echo 0 - No Wireless echo. FOR /r C:\WirelessProfiles\ %%f IN (*.xml) DO ( SET file!index!=%%f ECHO !index! - %%~nxf SET /A index=!index!+1 ) echo. Set /P selection="Select Wireless Profile number: " SET file%selection% >nul 2>&1 IF ERRORLEVEL 1 ( echo. ECHO Skipping Wireless Profile Setup EXIT /B 1 ) CALL :RESOLVE %%file%selection%%% ECHO selected file name: %file_name% netsh wlan add profile filename=%file_name% GOTO :listwlan :RESOLVE SET file_name=%1 GOTO :EOF The file i have tried to create by combining the two and other tips online: echo off cls SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION set wlanfld="C:\WirelessProfiles" if not exist %wlanfld% md %wlanfld% echo off echo Wireless Profile Export Menu echo ============================ echo. echo. echo Which export routine do you want to run? echo. echo 1. Export All profiles echo 2. Export certain profiles only echo. set /p export="What do you want to do?: " if %export%==1 ( netsh wlan export profile folder=%wlanfld% key=clear setlocal enabledelayedexpansion for /r %wlanfld% %%a in (*.xml) do ( set oldName=%%~xna set newName=!oldName:~28! ren "%%a" "!newName!" ) else if %export%==2 ( netsh wlan show profiles C:\temp.txt for /f "skip=10 delims=*" %%a in (C:\temp.txt) do ( echo %%a >>C:\newfile.txt ) xcopy C:\newfile.txt C:\temp.txt /y del C:\newfile.txt /f /q ) else ( echo invalid choice - exiting ) For a bit of background as to why I have started to edit the export file, the current export routine will always export ALL wireless profiles and then try and remove the first 28 characters from the filename. The problem with this is that if the resultant filename exists the new file is not renamed and is just left in the export folder.
  12. Would Printer Migrator not be a better alternative? I use it all the time as it saves me so much hassle. The drivers and ports are contained within a cab file and you can install the printers in less than a minute. If you want more info let me know.
  13. There is no difference I suppose. It's just the fact that they appear to have gone to some effort to disguise his identity, both in the text and picture, and then apparently reveal his identity at the end of the article. Poor Journalistic skills on behalf of the BBC.
  14. BBC News - Spamhaus hacking suspect 'had mobile attack van' This article seems to reveal both the identity and the handle of the hacker in one. Probably coincindental. SK = Sven Kamphuis???
  15. I just sat there for a full 5 minutes moving my cursor really slowly round the screen lol. Wonder how many images there are?
  16. I saw this over the holidays and looked into it more. It is actually physically impossible to replicate IRL. I don't mean the never ending bit I just mean getting it all to line up. Take a look at the size of the slices and you will soon see why this will never work. The blocks that have been cut are manipulated during the animation to grow/shrink to fill the gaps that would otherwise appear.
  17. lol, will try that later.
  18. Umm....soooo..yeah I bought this tie off you earlier...and....well....i'd like my money back please!! That is a ridiculous amount of money for a tie
  19. Shut up and take my money now!
  20. This is the bit that got me too. Bill seems VERY hypocritical to me and loses a lot of his character's strength by behaving in the way he did in last nights episode. I also suspect some homosexual undertones between Keiren and Rick. The conversation in the car made me think that this was the case, which also explains why Keiren killed himself when Rick died.
  21. The venue is only an hour or so away from me so I might be able to make both days without the need of staying over in a hotel.
  22. Watched Episode 2 lat night. Will see this through to the end but it's not all that to be honest. Shame on you BBC for ruining a very good genre.
  23. $3398 for 10MB of storage!! Wowzers!! My personal favourite is the guy playing games who smacks his boss! Nice share. Anyone else got a wall like this?? We could start it as a new topic. Office Walls
  24. either, not fussed. I don't have an office I can put them up in, so i envy all of you that do!!!
  25. Wouldn't mid seeing some of those comics you have on your wall. Think i've seen a couple of them but not sure about the rest.
