For the past several months, my laptop’s sound has been fucked- no noise 90% of the time, static the other 10. I phone up Dell, it takes over a month and around £200 to get an engineer out to fix it. After taking my laptop apart into a trillion pieces and installing a new motherboard [...]
I was going to write a post about this, but figured that one defence-of-free-speech-in-relation-to-the-BNP post was enough. So instead, here’s something completely different. Via Tom Paine, I find that guy off Dragon’ s Den being an advocate for Mandated Lifestyle Modification. As a non smoker myself, I find myself wanting to apologise to the landlord, [...]
…that bombing the moon quite fits in with the spirit of the Nobel Peace Prize, does it now? Still, well done to Obama, he didn’t cure AIDs or stop Green Day polluting the planet with more records, but he did, er, use “his extraordinary efforts to blah blah blah.” Well done. Now, go do some [...]

The BBC are terrible for this. “Free at point of use, but you’ve paid already and shall continue to pay by government sanctioned extortion” is not the same as free.

I don’t remember any violent battles, but it seems we have been conquered by the ideology of people being able to attain the things that they not only need, but things of all shapes and sizes that they want to make their lives more enjoyable, easier, and generally better. Everyone [...]

What a royal cock up.
The news is talking about how prosecutions are being dropped, and how it will take 3 months to make the law enforcable. This is all true, but no one seems to be [...]
@octofuzz: #Fact Benefit Fraud estimated cost £1 billion. Tax Evasion (amongst the highest earners) estimated cost £15 billion. Who are the scroungers?
A) How can you be a “scrounger” by keeping what you legitimatly earn?B) Tax evasion and tax avoidance are different things. AVOIDANCE is reducing the ammount of tax you pay by legal means. [...]
A BNP counciller was told to quit because he has a car numberplate saying “na51″.Except it’s not a personalized number plate or anything, it’s a standard DVLA numberplate. There are no doubt many, many cars with “na51″ in their number plates.
Wat.
No wonder only The Sun and The Daily Fail have carried this story- [...]
