Comment 449ml? Where?!? (Score 3, Informative) 220

That's crazy, I'm in the UK and I've never seen a glass that size outside of a novelty catalog. I'll concede that wine glass sizes have increased (they used to be sold in 125ml measures, nowadays it's usually 175ml or 250ml) but I've never seen a restaurant or pub selling a measure larger than 250ml, and I drink a lot of wine!

Comment Re:1kpl.us (Score 1) 287

It looks good, but... I can't see a way to sort feeds by "oldest first" (I hate reading things out of order) and there's no obvious way to make the feeds list permanently display, every time I switch feeds it slides off again.

Perhaps most annoyingly, there's no contact information or anything else on the site which allows users to ask questions like this on the site.

Comment My CC details were "leaked" by Steam (Score 1) 141

Coincidentally, I'm currently fighting a running battle with Steam support to reclaim a hacked Steam account. After about five messages back and forth, it has finally emerged that the person actually stole my account by "reclaiming" it from Steam, after providing my steam account number, and my credit card details.

I don't have any spyware on this machine - I checked with SpyBot and Ad-Aware. I surf using Opera, I read mail using Eudora, and internet security is part of my job. I am at a loss as to how anyone could have got both my Steam account number and my credit card details by hacking a third party, however, unless that third party was Steam. (Yes, I could be an idiot, riddled with spyware that I have no idea is there.)
