...from the numerous Stargate SG-1 episodes I've seen, the Zat'nik'tel seems to work effectively in the Canadian forests.

What's an 'IT stud'? Is it the geek with the biggest hard drive?

I'm very good at the English language but I have no idea what this means. How do you 'tape out' a processor? What's a 'fabless ecosystem'? (The rainforests are rather wonderful, I hear.)

Sorry - 'Starmer', not 'Starmer-Smith'. He's a completely different person!

Isn't this 'chilling' as in 'relaxing'? It certainly doesn't worry me and looks as though Starmer-Smith is seeking to tackle the problem in a measured, sensible fashion.

Maybe I missed it but I don't recall 800 imams congregating in London to protest about the shooting of a fourteen-year old girl by Taleban psychopaths.

'watching a video recording, reading an electronic book, playing a game, or listening to an audio recording.'

People pay to do these things? Who knew?

I work 90 minutes a day. That feels about right to me.

They are going to patent 'One-Click Dialling'!!!

Not if it requires people to use their brains.

Already Apple have patented the new particle, on the basis that it gives the iPad mass so they must have invented it.

I hadn't noticed this but in the last week or so I've noticed the appearance of ads masquerading as 'likes'. I'm getting all sorts of shit in my newsfeed on a regular (i.e. daily basis.) FaceBitch is definitely going out of its way to piss off users. Thank goodness for Social Fixer.

Eh? I regularly browse on a 1024x768 netbook without difficulty. Seems to me that the web pages you are browsing don't scale too well.
