Re: TSA fun continues

I visited the USA with some of my friends last year, I can honestly say I didn’t have any issues with airport security, and every member of staff we spoke to was very friendly. Guess it’s just down to personal experience, maybe next time I'll get pulled to one side and cavity searched to even it out, who knows!

Re: Samsung too

Strange thing is, ive found my Desire HD randomly taking screenshots when i turn the screen off and on over the last few months, nice to know im not going crazy, since i dont actually know how to take a screenshot on it in the firstplace...

Re: I give up...

I agree in most cases Wifi is available, but sometimes it just isn’t the best option compared to an Ethernet connection. And while as i mentioned I’m sure forking over yet more money isn’t a problem for most, it still irritates me that it has to be done for a top spec £2500 machine.

It’s a very nice machine, but overshadowed for me by sheer stupidity. What more do people want you ask? Only a little bit more I’d expect, 1 Ethernet port more to be precise.

Agreed, as soon as i saw the walking movement it was all over, because walking all over skyrim like that wouldnt get frustrating at all... -_-

RE:Time for another invasionary mission by the US on those grounds?

You know at least this time if they did do somthing it would be for a better cause than oil...just sayin!

RE: AC 13:02

I think you both kinda missed the point, the aim wasnt to stop people from accessing it, it was to raise awareness.

People loading up the page for the first time were made aware of SOPA and what was happening, people who otherwise may not have had any idea. Wiki even gave instructions on how to bypass it on their main page, because once you were made aware of what they were standing up for, the job was done.

Not accessing the website out of principle for the day doesnt really make any difference for what they were trying to achieve.

@boltar

Don't get me wrong, I have no illusions about Win 8 being some magical virus free heaven, that wasn't the point that I was making.

My point was that it really irritates me when Anti Virus companies kick up a fuss about new security features (good or bad) released by Microsoft based on their fear of losing profits, which lets face it is their main concern here "If Microsoft don't like us, and dont give us keys/add us to work on boot, we wont be able to make money from them anymore"

Let the down votes continue, but that's my take on it...

RE: He's in a council flat

...hes also trying to turn his own crap into gold, which i would of thought would say more about his finances than living in a council flat ;)

Indeed, a lot of people seem to make this assumption.

When people buy gaming laptops such as this one its to be a desktop replacement.

You can move from place to place easily, no separate tower, no big monitor, everything just there.

If you want a light laptop to look at websites for hours your not going to be buying a £1700 gaming laptop. I don't see why people put its size as a valid down side in these reviews.

I Agree!

...wait...what? :/

Re: terrorism definition

It amazes me how you can get 4 down votes for taking the time to look into and quote the terrorism act...

RE:

Not that I disagree with you or the author, but if they "Obscure personal data" wont that remove the evidence they have of carrying out the attack in the first place, and result in them being accused of making it up?

RE

Not that I agree with this on any level (as i don't), but I would presume that one would only be "rammed up the ass" by the police, if there was actually something in the E-mails, Pakistani or not. Although I wouldn't be surprised if more Emails were checked up on depending on race.

"Random" Security checks and all :).

Totally Agree

£1000, what a joke. It really makes me sick.

O RLY?

Here was me thinking that the UK paid for it...

title required

But....then whats an automatic pistol called? :/

Title Required

Because when a Foreign company goes around your whole country taking it then its a little more serious than some dude in a car with a laptop outside someones house...

Its true

The worrying fact is that the systems did actually Anti Virus in place (NOD32). Fortunately NOD did detect it, however that was all, giving only the option to clean or ignore, and the clean failed due to it being in live memory, very helpful! Had to use combo fix to get rid of it.
