An interesting peice on the BBC website of the case of EMI vs. ReDigi.  It looks like it'll have huge impact for the digital music market. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-19842851 Gavin

WARNING: Although the following video is a cartoon, it is probably NSFW, rated R for strong violence and some may find it offensive, disrespectful, oversimplifying, etc. It probably is all of this to a certain extent. It is my opinion though, that it...

Anybody know where to source a new quad beam Bedini Clarifier? My ran for about 10 seconds tonight; slowed down and died. Was getting much use too for the first time in a couple of years after I found a sensible position for it.

I'm in the process of building up an MTB and would value some advice on the wheel size debate. I currently have a 12 year old Scott Boulder hardtail and have never liked the ride compared to my 531 steel tourer. I'm keen to find an MTB that has all the zing I get from riding my tourer and that hopefully will last for years and years (I tend to keep bikes a long time - the tourer is 27 years old!!) I ride lots of bridleways and forests in the South Downs area as well as National trails like...

Okay, I should have learned by now - there are two things which I now I can't do but which I never learn from. One is spelling and the other is DIY. I've just spent the day trying to put up a turntable wall shelf and yet again have failed. Why don't I...

 The day before yesterday, at a small sign making business about half a mile from my house, a man shot and killed five people, wounded three others, and then killed himself.  He had been fired earlier in the day, left the building and then...

Just got back from taking the old man out to eat. Went to the Weatherspoons in Putney a large pub overlooking the river. Price for a pint of Ruddles £1.79. Last Saturday i took her indoors to a pub in Surrey stockbroker belt. Price for a pint of Ruddles £3.75. Now i know that the Spoons mob have buying power,but overheads for their pub on the river must be huge. Being just a simple sort of chap can any forum member(do we have any publicans on this M/B) explain how the extra £2.00 a pint is...

The display name is about the only thing I do not seem to be able to change in my profile. And true to life, Mr. Murphy and everything, it is exactly that which I wish to change. Any chances?

I'm not! However, my father in-law passed away a few months ago, and amongst the house clearance stuff that I couldn't bear to throw away was a collection of almost untouched plastic kits. They're almost all ground troops and vehicles from WWII,...

The Nice thread has prompted memories of English lessons at school. My English teacher would hit the roof if anyone ever used the word 'nice' in an essay. 'Nice is not a nice word' she would say. I agree. It is so vanilla, so vapid. Ditto...

Chaps, This post is inspired by both the system pics thread and the thread regarding DIY. I can do DIY mainly because I enjoy it and I like to design and make things, therefore I am loosely considering making my own Hifi rack as I want to keep the...

Our Scottish news, reknowned for its parrochialness, has just run an extended news feature on the imminent 'world stone skimming competition'.  So what you might ask.  Well, it transpires that the final of said competition is called the...

Here is a link to an extract from this movie. As you'll see it's a risible piece of crap and no doubt made with mischief in mind. Is it worth the death and destruction it's apparently caused? Of course not. I'd argue though that it actually...
