Thanks for that. Ninite.com looks like a cracking way to go.
Seriously, it looks like it would make populating a new build a snap.
Which is quite timely actually as the missus' machine is due a reinstall.

*Raises a glass*

Ach

100% certain I'm geeky enough to be in the target audience and I found the droid bionic advert sexy as hell. I want one. In fact I want two. And I want them to mate.

That's nice. Records must be kept securely so they can't be snooped on, unless we want to snoop on them.
Yay for security.

And if that wording is a copy paste, surely holding the IPs I've been assigned for the last 18 months is worthless. See, I'd hold that data no problem, just wouldn't associate any timestamps with it.

Well hoooooo leeeeee shit that's a large pile of stupid.
Haven't seen a pile of stupid that big since... well I'm not sure I ever have.
Crikey.

"it is simply their servers trying to the translation right"
I think you a word in your sentence.

You must have been living in Wales.

o.O
Seriously?
Neither of you are slating the Prince of Persia movie as the unmitigated pile of crap that it was?
I'm now wondering if we've seen different films under the same name...
It was utter garbage. Truly embarrassing. From Gyllenhaal's hair (and the selection of Gyllenhaal as the prince in the first place), through the use of what for all the world looked like the font Papyrus (argh!) to the dagger being used precisely three times and not one of which was in combat or a time of great peril as per the major point of the bleedin' game.
I made the mistake of seeing that pile of trash at the cinema and both I and the missus (she'd played sands of time and enjoyed it thoroughly) were the closest we'd ever been to storming out of the theatre.
Having paid actual money to be there however, we stuck it out.
In retrospect, I wish we'd have left.

Interesting counterpoint: I've had an HTC Desire on Vodafone for a while now and the missus just got hers today. Since I got it, on contract mind you, it has not once actually flashed a vodafone logo at me. Furthermore (despite the hoohah vodafone caused with their *not really an upgrade* software upgrade) I've not got any vodafone 360 shovelware on my device and never have.
In addition to this, the missus' sim doesn't go live until tomorrow and while I was copying the contacts over by putting her pay as you go O2 sim into it, I found I was able to make calls with the O2 sim in the Desire. I don't know if this means that the handset is completely unlocked, or if it's just pre pay sims that work, but it made me smile.
Just thought I'd raise these points, not really in favour of carriers as I'm fairly sure they're all bastards, but it seems like vodafone at least didn't go the whole hog in the bastard contest for this particular handset.
YMMV and all that.

Debian and Ubuntu (and possibly others) have GUI package managers.
Been the case for a while.
Mighty handy they are too, since you can text search the repo in the GUI to find the package you want.
Plus the selected package will normally contain a description in the lower pane telling you exactly what it does.
Chimps could use it, I'm fairly sure.

It works bitches!

At least you made a neat gun!
I mean, seriously, the mice who are still alive will really appreciate it.

WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

I loved Uru, it was the business. Previous Mysty games were awesome too.
I'm a little excited now...
Shame I read this article just after getting in to work.

Chatting him?
Perhaps with some online collaboration, the summary may have been improved.
Gah.
