So this will be as big a success as etching ordinary bulb filaments with a laser,which also was meant to make old "ordinary" bulbs much more efficient,but seems to have Totaly failed to ever appear anywhere. Bulb stories are like the next battery tech,none of which ever seem to make it as far as the shops shelves,one a week..

Hardly suprising the Carter film bombed,it was one of a bloody awful series of novels,erb,was hardly the most popular author when new,now they are truly awful in comparison with more modern stuff. erb had a strange use of "english",even for his times,these days it just grates.. You would have to work very hard to make a decent film based on anything of erb's output... But then everyone compares so called flops to the most successful novel,film,series etc,and when you have dire over-hyped rubbish like star wars breaking records,nearly everything else will be considered a flop,wether it's any good or not..

Yes,but the same firms are the ones who use every means at their disposal to corrupt the system so that they can do what they do,others like you just benefit from others criminal behaviour. wouldn't it be a wonderful world if everyone acted and thought like you ??

Well Tim cook would know all about crap,just like jobs,he is full of it,speaks it and makes crap devices and charges the earth for crap services. Apple are just a bunch of thieving bastards,that's why they appeal to the wealthy,they mostly got their wealth by dis-honest and like most of silicon valley,they are either now still using criminal behaviour and acts or in the past they committed criminal acts to get their start in the money grubbing ladder,where would Apple be if jobs etc had not done a very suspicous deal with someone inside rank-Xerox to steal code and ideas. What givernmentsshould do is get together and at midnight on the same day/night all around the world,they should just seize all of apes dodgy thieving bank accounts and then just spend it,by the time apple have tried to get the cash back,they will have will had to spend at least the same amount or more and govs can just refuse to pay them if they loose in courts,or just change the laws to allow them to describe Apple's hoards as criminal asserts and seize them that way,what are Apple going to do,refuse to do business in those countries ? a lot of us would love that situation,if folk really wanted their suite devices,they would have to do it through personal imports with 300% import tax,it wouldn't make Apple any more honest,but at least the public would get the use of their ill gotten gains,govs could do it to all the American firms that use Americas iffy laws that the same firms bribed politicos to enact ,as America will never change their dodgy tax system,because America would go bankrupt very quickly if all firms had to be run on an honest footing by honest ceo's etc etc,but having the most corrupt system and population in the world,it will never happen.another world problem caused by the most immoral,criminal, under educated ,arrogant,parochial population that the rest of us have had to suffer from in the last 2000 years,but at least the Romans didn't hide behind all sorts of crap,they were honest UN their theft and war mongering,I'm 57,luveun the UK and am still waiting to meet my first hinest,non criminal American,even the nice old elderly coupes I used to serve in hotels,if you got to talk with them,had all got their wealth by dishonest or criminal ir immoral behaviour somewhere in their past,but then greed is a central part of their bullshit constitution ...

My thought exactly. And for all the releases and all the programs made about ww2,our governments are still inventing new lies about it and leaning on old lies to try and stop folk learning too much of the truth. If you have good walking legs and boots,can read maps and have some knowledge of major points in ww2 history,it's amazing what you can find in the southern half of the UK,but you have to be very careful cos being a tiny,cramped little island there are only so many places that current establishments and kit can be hidden .if you think you have some strange mapping anomolies in America,you want to try the UK.it's fun if you have a large collection of old maps and don't mind loads of trouble with supposed land owners,troops etc etc. You soon realise how much of our "history" is pure bs...

No,that's want motorists want,what a lot of non car drivers want is car nice n soft and safe on the outside ad the inside full of nasty spikey,sharp,solid things for drivers to try and bounce off,also a ban on the use of seat belts..this will then encourage drivers to drive with other people's safety as their priority ,rather than getting from A-B as fast as possible while relying on modern car tech to keep themselves perfectly safe and fingers crossed for anyone they hit...

We have a set of 3-4 islander aircraft based at r.a.f northolt that take it in turns,most days and nights to circle over London at 10.000ft max,sucking up all phone calls,data links etc etc.. I can set my watch by them,they are that regular overhead on way in and out..when something big kicks off in London etc,they have had at least three in the air at once...are easy to spot,grey,and bristleing in twigs..

And another part of the problem is devices beingblicked up tighter and tighter,so even if you buy a device out right,what you get is a half crippled handful of spare parts,that you then have to unlock,root,etc etc yourself to get the spare parts to work as their meant to,devices that are locked should come at half the price,cos they only half work !!! Am going back to an old HTC hd2,cos it's the only device ever marketed(that sold more than 3) that is totally unlockable and is therefore 100% usable...

Proving once again just how stupid people can get to the top of "merican" institutions. Does he really believe that people didn't ready take precautions against "merican" organisations ? All snowden did was confirm what a lot of us already knew and what a it of other people suspected. So wooley head doesn't think that the "mericans" behaviour in the middle east for the last 60 years doesn't somehow have something to do with the cause of the current problems,me,I would blame the idiot president who decided to suddenly pull support for the few leaders who were managing to keep the hot heads under control in Libya and Syria and others,if "merica" has so much oil itself now,why not just cut the area off from the rest of the world,seal it up tight and let th slaughter each other and then take out of who ever survives,it worked in Iran/Iraq war,why not again,or are you "mericans" to stupid to see that as the probable only way you can ever hope to defeat or control the Muslim uprising ?

For,I bet the front line Isis fighters are quaking in their boots knowing that a bunch of comfortable,white,western teenagers are going to go to war against them by attacking their i.t hardware...oh bugger,they don't have any and don't use modern com's for anything dealt important. Anon trying to make a story out of a non event,sad bastards,who have a greatly inflated idea of their own importance and effects.. I would be shutting myself knowing a bunch of third rate script kiddies are after me while I'm running around ducking bullets and shrapnel !!! Hard to pick between the two pairs of arrogant wankers,daesh or anon..

To answer your first question about android users and chrome,well I don't use it at all,I don't like it,and Google already steal enough data about me,so I don't use chrome browser...

No,because it's from those morons in threadneedle street,they are so far removed from reality and so used to lying about everything that you cannot trust a word they say. According to them,interest rates should now have been going up for a year,same in USA,idiots with fingers crossed that wishful thinking works...

those who arrange and design shrubberies in these stressful times are the lucky ones, think of us poor buggers who have to install and maintain said shrubberies, those bloody knights always had an excuse in "the good old days" now, they start steaming if you even let them glimpse anything resembling a bill.

it always was a bit iffy that v stopped expansion at same time as rumours of g trialing their fibre system "leaked" and that the day after g announce further plans for moving into moving data as well as looking at data, v kill it dead.
