  1. Does anyone know the default length of time Microsoft hold a message that's been put into a users delete messages when content search is used to examine the inbox? Sounds like an exam question I know... but unfortunately someone got phished and the attackers been in there for 70+ days siphoning stuff off into the deleted items inbox.
  2. Because I live city centre the physical size and height of the car is the real issue for her. Even for an estate it's on the large side (it's longer/wider than stock Mondeo estates which aren't exactly small). I've already bought a cmax which is a little smaller and a little higher (and a lot easier to drive), once she gets used to that and a year or two no claims I might go back to an ST if finances permit.
  3. I wish I could say it was on purpose but I only noticed when I started editing out the number plates...
  4. My partner is insisting that it's not "learner friendly" so I'm having to get rid of the best car I've ever owned... I'm looking for £3,500 (or a near offer) or bid on ebay from £2,000: 2004 FORD MONDEO ST220 SILVER | eBay Collection from Leicester City Centre Key Points Low mileage (66,000) Full service history 11 Months MOT, Recent Service October 2014 New DMF and Clutch at 64,844 miles (these tend to go at 70,000, so I had it done early) All four tyres under a year old (plenty of tread left) All discs/pads changed less than year and a half ago, and on Halfords Autocentre lifetime guarantee Apart from air filter, spec is as it came out of the factory (no boy racer modifications) Other nice points Sunroof and A/C for the warm days Heated front seats and front/rear windows for the cold days Red Leather Recaro interior Sony 6 CD multichanger/radio with Auxiliary port in glove box (factory fitted) Dog cage in back (although I never used it for dogs, so no dog smell) - can be removed if buyer wishes Loads of paperwork detailing work over the years and all the owners manuals Estate car so insurance won't bankrupt you http://i.imgur.com/wslDd6J.jpg
  5. I know there's some developers here, so thought someone would be interested in the Education Open Data Challenge. It's open to anyone and teams can form as late as at the Creation and Innovation Weekend. I just competed in the Crime and Justice one which was a fantastic experience (I won with my project CheckThatBike!), so if you have any questions let me know.

    I believe most forces use UHF Frequency telemetry, the same stuff used for falconry. Not sure how you'd get one in a mac though... If you do go down this route let me know I bought the kit to experiment building a bait bike but never got round to it, so would be happy to sell at discount.
  7. Trying to upload a large CSV files (154,000 records) to Google Spreadsheet when I got this message... I really would like to see what a 20 Terabyte CSV file looks like... Also any suggestions on how to offload the work of looking up keys from my own computer? I'm thinking about spinning up a VPS and using mySQL at the moment because my I5 laptop sounds like it's going to give in at the thought of cross referencing 154,000 records against another list with 20,000 records (currently using a countif).
  8. Not what your looking for at the moment but the Humble Bundles have family friendly games every now and then... They had a Worms one last week and the donation you make goes to charity which isn't a bad thing either.
  9. I've not got a life insurance and got a mortgage a couple of years ago... Didn't realize it could be an issue. The way I did it was went onto a comparison website, and worked out the most I could afford based on the deposit I had. Then I looked at properties around that price range, once I found one I was interested in I made the offer and got an agreement in principle from the cheapest provider (from their they sorted out surveys and I employed a solicitor). The reason the estate agents might be asking is it's likely that they earn a commission is they refer you (likely to be several £££).
  10. My mistake ^_^ Still I wouldn't want to be doing that in a sorting office on a hot day.
  11. Are you sure many places assemble the bikes then partially disassemble parts like peddles and handlebars so it fits in a bike box... In fact just found this link: How to build your new bike from Tredz - Tredz Cycling Blog What I'd do is cancel the order and then buy a used bike, you get much more for your money and will end up enjoying cycling much more because of it. Edit: Just read that you already knew this... nvm
  12. Getting testimonials and feedback is all about making it as easy as possible for someone to give it. You don't need it written down so just talking to someone over the phone (perhaps offer a free thingymagig) and asking them if it's okay to list them as a customer would do wonders for updating those testimonals. If you pick up the laptops yourself, you could maybe talk to them then and get some feedback straight away whilst loading up.
  13. Thanks and I'll put in my standard security functions tonight (overlooked it as it wasn't putting stuff into a database).
  14. Most of the above is fixed (apart from the Google Map, which I could do but it worries me).... Got a new site now if anyone wants to cast a critical eye over it - Check That Bike If your buying a used bike, you whack in the frame number and presto chango it will tell you if there's a record of it being stolen on the big three registers.
  15. One of the advantages of CSNM is Carl is pretty flexible if you ask him he will most likely set the limit to whatever you like (within reason).
  16. The Conference Team in the department I work for employed Film360 to make it... First I heard of it was when they asked me to make it work on their iPads
  17. See I thought that but the guy who sold it to them said it did, so I turned off flash on pc and it still works ^_^ (hence the question)
  18. Just setup a virtual tour for our conference team to use, haven't got an iPad to test it on so would appreciate if someone could check for me. University of Leicester Virtual Tour
  19. On a side note I just checked my weekly score and it appears to be jumping about even when I'm not driving the car.... Going to have to work out some dates and give Bell a ring.
  20. It's easy enough to do it wouldn't suprise me if they worked with a GPS supplier, but even if they didn't a mapping api and a knowledge of limits for certain road types would be enough (I could knock something up in an afternoon). Maybe you are just lucky and they have miss calculated the speed limits in your area. I don't think they offer other policies with the tracker, may be worth phoning them to confirm what you have been told but I got an email last week confirming that they will review my score A 3.0 petrol estate (so yes?)

    eBay

    If you don't want to sell to that person again then use myherpes by all means...
  22. I'm not entirely sure if it is fully GPS based, my girlfriend told me the guys that fitted it played with parts of the car I wouldn't have expected them too (i.e they spent considerable time, putting the car in and out of gear, flicking lights on and off, etc). If it was a black box thats just got all the sensors in it, I'd have expected them to wire it up to the battery/fuse box (not to self, check that the tracker is fused properly) and be on their way.
  23. Apart from some of the information is just wrong... What's hard to beleive about that your TomTom/Garmins do it? I can tell you for sure it does. I was warned that anything will drop your score for that day, but your overall score is an average so you'll be okay. Accepted, it's upped my MPG as well (granted only from 16 to 19) Actually they do, first you get the original discount (YaY) then in six months time they review your driving habits and depending on if your in the upper 20% or lower 20% of drivers they will change your premium accordingly (discount or charge) No one is whining, we are discussing it in an open way, weighing up the pros and cons of the tracker to see if it's worthwhile.
  24. Are you participiting in the ARMA3 Alpha? If you have aspare Alpha Lite invite can you send one my way?
  25. Try looking for a jQuery powered slideshow, then testing the demo sites on various browsers will save alot of time... This one appears to work find: SlidesJS, a simple slideshow plugin for jQuery.
