People that insist their email addresses have capital letters.

I insist my email address is only written in lower case.

Having a capital letter just makes it look weird.

Exactly.

Capitalizing letters in an email address just looks stupid.

Outlook.com is a free web-based email service run by Microsoft. One of the world's first webmail services, it was founded in 1996 as Hotmail (stylized as HoTMaiL)

[Tiwaking!]

What is this mess #Microsoft ? You're sending me clutter to warn about your clutter privacy.

Radio Hauraki.

What a shitfest of a radio station. It's like one long-ass sound effect. And then that piece of shit Havoc on in the afternoons. What fuck-hole thought it would be a good idea to put him on a radio segment where he just rambles to himself non-stop?

I'd rather listen to this on repeat:




Hauraki is on the work radio. I have no control over it. Thank god for headphones.

[Apostrophe Spacemonkey]

Hauraki has gone downhill over the years. They're just another pop station with immature childish hosts.


The Sound is the only one I like (and sometimes Mix when I want to listen to some 80s)

Mix is targeted towards 39 to 54-year-old women who are fashion-aware

- just like me.

[Xsannz]

you should try chalk FM..

but these days i listen to radio sidewinder because it ties into Elite dangerous and it has an eclectic selection

The morning segment is back to back shitty sound effects. I have no idea how it has any sort of a viewer base. Then they have this stupid game called 'genius or penis' WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK?

[Lias]

The Rock has gone to shit as well.. It used to actually be decent music but they dropped the Axe Attack entirely, and only play even mainstream heavier stuff at night. I mean you don't even get hard rock during the day, its all emo indie poprock shit I could hear on ZM. You never even hear a downtuned guitar before about 7pm.

Not to mention Bryce and Tom in the mornings and Jono & Ben in the afternoons.. Seriously just get the fuckers off the air and play hard rock and metal.

OMFG RADIO.

Seriously, the only station I can stand is The Sound, Robert Taylor tells you an interesting quip about the band, album or song, THEN ACTUALLY PLAYS SOME MUSIC

Every other fucking radio station has dribbling fuck wits nattering on about complete fucking bullshit.

I also cant stand the adverts, every single advert on Hauraki or The Rock is aimed at middle aged men and tradies.

I literally cycle through stations until I find music, any music, I settle for Justin Beiber over Rog. Sometimes my entire commute is the sound of me switching stations until I find music. As soon as someone releases a half decent Android head unit with Spotify radio is fucked.

[Clin]

These fucking connectors.



Hands up who hasn't had these things snap the solder inside an external. The last three I've had have done it and they don't live hard lives man.

[Xsannz]

^^ lost 3 of the new WD ultra passports latley after about 9 mnths of use each.

and FUCKING EXTERNAL DRIVES NOW THAT HAVE THE USB CONNECTOR FUCKING SOLDERED TO THE DRIVE RATHER THAN USING AN ADAPTER WHICH MEANS THE DRIVE IS FUCKING USELESS NOW.

I'm pointing out that I agree with your solution, but most of the younguns wont know WTF solder is.

[Xenolightning]

What is it?

[Xsannz]

i know what solder is and i have done it,  the issue is that the drives are now usb only..

what happened to buying 2tb external drives cheeky and then pulling them out the enclosure and using them in your pc..

danm fuck it all.

Lias you should know i am more than techy enough to solder and also handy enough to rebuild your bike and do house repairs ;p

[Pigdog]

On this topic, I bought some headphones and the build quality was shit. I had to re-solder the wires to most components. I almost asked for a refund.

[Kayne]

Hauraki is on the work radio. I have no control over it. Thank god for headphones.

You're lucky to listen to Hauraki, and lucky to be able to use headphones.

Spoiler :

Mai fm. The edge. Flava.

These are the 3 radio stations I'm forced to listen to daily, and we're banned from headphones as it's a hazard.

The first two dj's play the same songs until 10
Then the next solo guy plays the same songs until 1
Then the next solo girl plays the same songs until 3
Then the next two dj's play the same songs until 5
Then the computer comes on.
and it plays the same songs.

The amount of times that I've listened to "King Kunta", "Shawty I don't mind if you're a whore",Taylord Swift, "I'm a young dad that has to work hard but i'll try to support you child", insert_generic_girl_name_with_generic_love_song , Ed Shereen, Taylor swift, Taylor swift, Taylor swift, "Shawty wont you come my way", "No flexing zone", "I'm a runescape classic man"...

Just my god. My fucking god. It's torture. This is insanity. I'm banned from headphones yet have to listen to this shit. On repeat.

And then.

And - fucking - then.

The Dj says some cutesy shit like "WOWWW YOOO I HAVEN'T HEARD THIS SONG IN AGES"

Hahaha.

Hah-hah-hah.

HA- HA- HA- HA- HA-

Fucking kill me.

But I am actually doing something about it.

Spoiler :

Loading everyones songs onto my ipod and leaving it plugged in to the stereo. Random songs, and what ever music you want.

Going to put as much fucking death metal in as possible holy god

[Lias]

rebuild your bike

You've rebuilt my engine.. maaaaate :-P
