    Well, clearly the man behind the company was called Citoc, d’uh.

    Emmelle = ML = Moore Large

    The origin of the phrase “Beyond the Pale”.

    Driving. It still does.

    Shit.

    Just realised I’ve left Chrome Remote Desktop running on my 3D rig at placement.

    Hmmmm, better tell them before something goes wrong and I get blamed!

    White LED’s are producing a lot of blueish light and a fluorescent coating is reacting to make white. Putting a red filter on that is making it very inefficient. Might be why it wasn’t as bright as you hoped.

    Better to use a red LED – they’ve been around for ages.

    Oh man, that sketch has made me cry with laughter since, what, 2001?

    I’ll give you an example of why Scientology is bad, “Free stress tests” – when they won’t even admit what the shit is they’re peddling on the streets, you know you’re in murky waters.

    No, but when Transcoding/Rendering/Generating Video from 3D files/working in Solid Edge/Autodesk Alias it all helps.

    For example, I ripped about 100 DVDs last week, saved me around 20 hours waiting, in total.

    Oh, and gaming, when I get another Gaming Card, it can help a lot depending on the game.

    Slim Devices’ gear just sounds lovely, I don’t know if it’s outdated, sorry.

    Your PC probably does use less power, but then again you don’t likely run a 40% overclock on a chip with a TDP of 120W at stock, 4 Physical discs and a big graphics card. Having said that My 470 GTX has cooked itself to death and I’m now on a 70W Fire Pro, so I guess I’m down about 150W on max power usage.

    CDRs with no paint over the foil degrade very quick, especially if you live by the sea [as I used to]. Ones with thick paint seem to survive longer.

    Anyway – OP – check the Slim stuff out, they do sound magical and are pretty capable.

    Wowza! Well done to those who knew what to do. I’m beginning to think it’s inexcusable I’ve not done a CPR course.

    Fingers and cables all crossed for Simon here, too.

    Gosh I’m late to this one 😉

    CD have a life? Only CDRs with poor backing over the foil I think 😉

    Right, as to the original question: Squeezebox[/url] and re-rip as FLAC or something. Don’t mess around 🙂

    The advantage with a laptop is you don’t need to worry much about leaving it on to serve music because it’s power consumption is relatively low. My PC OTOH is 4-600W, and now is full of 2TB of music and Vids. Hmmmpf.

    Wait, I’ve got it – the only standard is that a BIcycle has two [2] wheels.

    That’s it.

    Oh, and the bottle cage bolt spacing.

    Probably.

    Bloody hell!

    I was in a hotel lift in Sicily a few years back that proudly advertised “Beef with Mediterranean Herpes” as tonights dinner.

    We ate out.

    Projectors are they way to go, for sure. We just need the bulbs to be swapped for LED’s. Another year or two for mainstream, I think.

    Visiting houses – other people’s tellies.

    It’s just so gross, but we get used to it:

    “BUY THIS/BUY THAT/IT’S GREAT WORKED FOR ME [and I’m paid to say this so who do you trust] WILL MAKE YOU MORE ATTRACTIVE/LOOK AT THIS CAR/LOOK THERE’S A WOMAN WITH SKIMPY CLOTHES/THIS WIDGET WILL MAKE YOUR OTHERWISE MEANINGLESS AND EMPTY LIFE FULFILLED “

    “Now, back to My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding/Insert other lowest common denominator “entertainment” – SPONSORED BY OLD SPICE IT’S YOUR ONLY CHANCE OF GETTING LAID LADDO!!!!! SPEND SPEND SPEND”

    Yep, really missing out 😉

    Hahaha – I said something along the lines of ” There’s a pink thing down there that’s been there awhile, you’ll be wanting some gloves 😉 “

    But yeah, I do have a habit of saying the wrong thing and looking like a total twit.

    tom13 – can you send me one? I lost mine ages ago, you’ve probably passed it!

    Last few months:

    Hedge pron, published. 🙂
    Loads of gay-man hedge pron, printed from the internet. 🙂
    A pink vibrator* 🙂
    Several dead pets in piles of fly-tipped rubbish 🙁

    *Was in a layby for weeks, then one day I passed and there was the the litter-pickers pulling up. I told them there was a pink thing down the end of the lay-by they should pick up 🙂

    ir_bandito – I am impressed with your combination of lightweight discs and the heaviest brake calipers invented by man himself.

    Do those shimano things work well on that disc? I swapped the ones that came on my Centrum for MX4’s which are not much lighter, but tend to stop me!

    At the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal Pickering commentated on a race involving Cuban double-gold medallist Alberto Juantorena, whose muscular build and nine-foot stride contributed to his nickname El Caballo (the horse).

    Pickering said “and there goes Juantorena down the back straight, opening his legs and showing his class.”

    Dunno man. I always like Manitou for the damping, but I think their chassis development was behind the curve ’till very recently.

    Check Bikeradar.com, MTBR.com etc etc

    Maybe start a thread called “If I buy Manitou R7 pros, will I die?”
