  1. more than once a day seems like a criminal waste of drinking water and energy
  2. I shower either straight after work or after I've done a couple of hours of manual work after the office job. I prefer to just get up, do my teeth and get in the car in the morning.
  3. You could apply the same logic to trading any other kind of stock Pick a short period where MS or Apple stock drops and say 'Who still thinks these are a good investment?'

    Theme Hospital

    Oh man I loved Theme Hospital
  5. I don't put any work into my hive. just built them a box and largely leave them to it
  6. Yeah I caught this on bbc news this morning, love it
  7. I advocate repairing, I broke mine a few years back and bought another broken one on ebay and combined the parts
  8. I personally like having a second 'cheaper' device for music (old ipod), something I can chuck in the car or leave in my workshop dock. I could not do that with my phone.
  9. I tried to move to a sansa fuse+ after I thought my ipod 5th was on it's way out. it was unusable without rockbox and not particularly brilliant with it. Then it stopped working. I've gone back to my ipod (it's still just about ok) and will probably get another when it really is dead, despite how crap iTunes is.
  10. I thought you guys might appreciate this I've spent the last few weeks worth of evenings gradually putting it together It's a standalone media player based around a Raspberry Pi and a 1Tb hard drive. The chassis is from an old 16 port network hub and i laser cut/etched the replacement front and back panels. It's got (or will have) 4 usb ports, ethernet/LAN, HDMI, scart, composite video, analog audio, power switch and standard computer/kettle lead power input. It also has a remote control (sensor on front panel) http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b316/GreenBeast999/Projects/DSC02081_zpsa00f41b8.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b316/GreenBeast999/Projects/DSC02074_zps24808d04.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b316/GreenBeast999/Projects/DSC02076_zps8c40c038.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b316/GreenBeast999/Projects/DSC02078_zps1204e64b.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b316/GreenBeast999/Projects/DSC02079_zpsaf6d25ff.jpg I'm pretty pleased with how it all turned out. Probably accomplished for <£100
  11. surely wouldn't matter, one all powerful being is the same as the next
  12. as per his response above, he cares about misconceptions being repeated, not the existence (or not) of a deity
  13. so we either care enough to respond and we have 'belief' or we don't respond with logic and our point of view isn't heard. great alternatives.....
  14. just because DNA has discrete positions does not mean it has not evolved. Besides, there is no one 'gene' for a nose, so the addition, removal or change in a single gene would not cause a second nose to appear or disappear
  15. er, WTF!? how is evolution digital in any way, shape or form?
  16. I've just finished Wool and now reading Shift by Hugh Howey, great bit of post-apocalyptic stuff
  17. definitely one to watch!
  18. brilliant!
  19. wonder when/where they'll be available to the public. looks good
  20. frankly amazing how far it's come from humble beginnings. those geeks did not know what they were unleashing on the world.
  21. i agree, that is pretty mental
