  1. I'll look in to that, don't suppose there's a guide anywhere? Not a part of the system I use but the timetabler will be very appreciative if it helps!
  2. I can kind of see the appeal of having it VESA mountable, but I don't know about anyone else but my TV kicks out some serious heat, I would not want a high power PC strapped to it adding to that! Also seems to me that it's either mount it on your TV or don't buy it, it's not fitting in any standard TV cabinet
  3. I invested in some tulip bulbs; the growth was phenomenal in the second quarter but I had hardly anything left by the fourth
  4. Time to head over to various news sites and big up the BBQCoin in BitCoin comments, there's still chance you could make a profit from someone even more keen than you!
  5. Oooh I like the look of this... also, you can get it at a slight discount and donate to charity by buying it from the Humble Store: https://www.humblebundle.com/store EDIT: looks like the discount is gone, works out about the same price now but at least you can justify the purchase by knowing some of it goes to charity
  6. @CAM - I think @SouthCoastSaint has it backwards, formatted sheets contain the UPN in column A (hidden by default), unformatted don't. I hate inconsistency in SIMS!
  7. Likewise, I assumed that once set that was it. Are you sure you're looking at identical data? Fischer estimates can be based on all sorts of different variables, prior attainment or school context, top 50/25/15 etc. Make sure you're looking at like for like data
  8. There's an app called Network Log on Android that will tell you which IP addresses your apps are trying to reach: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.googlecode.networklog
  9. What are you actually trying to achieve? A sorted list of results with no context (i.e. subject) doesn't sound very useful, unless you're trying to do something like get the Capped 8 point score? If you tell us what you want to do with the data when it's sorted, there may be a better way...
  10. Judging by the sizes quoted in this article, I don't imagine that 500GB drive is going to last long! http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2013-11-20-all-the-xbox-one-launch-games-and-their-install-sizes Can't get my head around why some of these games are so big, 1.8GB for Angry Birds?! I suppose it just means keeping your drive tidy when you no longer play a game. Shame the XB1 doesn't have a storage breakdown utility, only software though I'm sure it'll come
  11. Done - looks like your votes are climbing steadily, could see them ticking over while I read your bio, good luck!
  12. Categories are great, can really speed things up. I have to export a load of marksheets for printing every term (I know, I know!) and being able to tick a box to filter down to just the ones I need saves loads of time. Also useful with aspects, I set up a category for my in house reporting system so that it's simply a case of putting an aspect in that category to make my system pick up its results, rather than manually specifying each aspect in code. Saved a hell of a lot of time and makes maintenance much easier. TL;DR: Categories are an often overlooked gem! BTW - I have a website, Geek Josh ←, but I rarely ever get around to posting anything on it. The only things I think would be useful data wise are the KS5 Facilitating Subjects CSV (KS5 Facilitating Subjects QAN List in TSV Format ← Geek Josh) and perhaps some of the tools posted in programs (I really need to add some more of my SIMS specific stuff to the site, I'm just so lazy when I leave work!) Software ← Geek Josh
  13. The only way I know to do this would be to login as your predecessor, open each report in report designer as "save as" public, login as yourself, load each report in report designer and "save as" private. That will make you the owner of the reports, but it's not exactly a quick process...
  14. I can't help but wonder if somehow Quagmire became sentient and managed to convince MS to fund this. $deity I hope the error message noise is "giggity!"
  15. "Have you tried turning her off and on again?"
  16. The problem is, he works for the BBC. There are still a lot of people in this country who look to the BBC as an organization they can trust (despite recent stories!), which in turn means you get your non-techies lapping up his BS and believing every half-arsed, unresearched and sometimes just plain wrong "fact" he spoon feeds them. It's damaging!
  17. This idiot again I'd like to know if he used his own money for his little BitCoin "experiment" [read: f**k up] or the BBCs, in which case he's basically saying "oh silly me, £400 worth of license payers money down the drain because I know jack about my supposed area of expertise, whoops!" Also, the closing line made me laugh: So not only is he a moron when it comes to technology, he is when it comes to money too. Just because the BitCoin might be worth 1p next year, the guy who lost 7,000 has still lost a potential investment of £3.7m today, so I doubt the fact they might be worth nout one day will come as much comfort!
  18. I use test level if I have it, though that's getting less and less frequent. TA I have mixed feelings on. On the one hand, they can be more accurate than test levels as the teacher's assessment could reflect more realistically what the student is capable of, rather than being a "snapshot" like the test level - they may have been having a bad/good day when they took the test. On the other hand, there's the risk that teacher assessments are unrealistically high as teachers are often judged on the progress of their students, so can over-estimate their true ability. Not saying that's a regular occurrence, but it happens. All that said, as soon as Fischer release their Y7 data, we use the KS2 levels they provide as we figure that helps keep things uniform (our target matrices are based on FFTD)
  19. Problem is Sunny, nobody gives a sh*t whether you think it's good value or not. To be honest, your constant criticising and sniping people on here is getting old. If you don't like it, don't buy it, but leave the rest of us alone OK? OK.
  20. haha I thought it but daren't say it BTW if anyone is looking for spirits not normally stocked in supermarkets this xmas, I have to highly recommend Master of Malt - I ordered a bottle of Wyborowa Vodka from them yesterday lunch time and had it in my hand at 8am this morning, only paid the minimum delivery charge too (about £2)
  21. You'll want to check there margin, padding and border are all 0. Easiest way to find these things is load it up in chrome, hit F12 and use the dev tools. Highlight the body (or div or whatever else you want to study), then look down the right hand side of the tools, it'll show you all the measurements.
  22. My guess is it's too cheap, he'd rather pay as much as possible for each game then come here and tell us how much he spent... or simply - TBH, I tend to throw $5 at anything HB have to offer, $3 charity, $1 each to HB and devs - it seems silly not to buy them that cheap! Any I have I gift to my brother, everyone is happy
  23. Don't worry about @Sunnyknight he only plays rehashed FPS'
  24. Ha! Hadn't noticed the link on my phone. Great film, Andy Serkis is brilliant
  25. Can you rearrange the pieces?
