'Audi fuel research'?

Got any relevant definitions for use of ICE & BLDC?
"Internal Combustion Engine" & ?

That'll do it . I'm picking efficiency is still an issue, but the finance spokesperson for the greens was quoted today as saying that the earth was a closed energy system, which is so pathetically inaccurate as to be frightening. *sigh*

Energy is one thing that is for all practical purposes infinite, we just have to harness it. The only energy shortage we have is a finite supply of windfall fossil fuels

In the next 50 years we should be getting some operation fusion plants. Like this one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DEMO

We have enough deuterium in the ocean to last billions of years.

If we have a plentiful, carbon neutral source of power (whether it be fusion, solar or wind), then efficiency doesn't really matter as much.

So Jonty now works for 2 degrees. Hah.
I wonder how this'll gaan... R.I.P. Snap? But on the other hand, 2 degrees are apparently pretty cool, so might be areet.

Oh, right. Active "No BYOD" policy. What the actual fuck, I just don't even.
Was looking forward to signing up with snap! again when I got home... I guess that (well, the equivalent) won't be happening now :S

Its only for launch anyway. People are just impatient and getting mad over free shit.

We aren't stopping people from using other devices, just at present there is always a modem supplied. Other providers do it, so I don't see why it's an issue when we do it (and our device is of a far superior quality)

[Growler]

sticking with fritz?

Because you're not giving it away for free in reality, the price is built into what people are paying even if they don't need it.

If that's true then someone should reel in the dope on twitter telling everyone that it's not optional and not free.

That or make some serious clarifications on what they mean, if it depends on various things in a case by case basis.

It's reasonably common to be shipped a router (foc) on sign up with a 12 month contract or more, but it's not so normal to alienate those who don't want or need it, or otherwise have a new connection require a sent out modem (at full price if not going for contract) with complete inability to utalise existing infrastructure. (Which is what the person on twitter is basically saying needs to happen).

Personally I don't get how blocking any other device could happen, since as long as the protocols are compliant it should be fine. *shrug*.

Just seems like a case of seriously crossed wires or a daft business decision (although I can completely get it from a support POV)

Jonty and I did the run around with some euro trash in trackmania last night, so that was cool. I get so hooked on that game....one more map....one more lap....nicked the wall, doesn't count....one more clean lap, lost 0.1 on that loop, one more lap....

[Pyromanik]

haha, tell me about it. I played Nations Forever probably far too much. Was still no good at it. Good times though. Good for a chillax after far too much baddlerage.

Was good to see you on man.

Picked it up again as a casual bit of something to do, and now its all I've played for a couple of weeks

[Pyromanik]

I finished Codename 47, now I'm on to Silent Assassin.

[AvatarFACE]

I should dig out my copies of the hitman games, I only ever finished the first two. I see there is a hitman movie out at the moment, anyone seen it?

[Pyromanik]

Intending to! Is it released yet? Oh wait England, don't get ahead of yourselves! This shit shouldn't be due until next year, well after every other country has had it on DVD so long it's in all the bargain bins.

[Retardobot]

Was off work for a week.

While I was away a student was allowed to use my workstation as work experience, which is cool, all for training the new generation. But I've returned to see that my history has been wiped. If you know what you're doing you don't wipe your history in one huge sweep, it raises suspicion.

I have a funny feeling the student was looking at stuff she wasn't meant too.

or she was embarrassed about what she found you were up to and wiped it so nobody though it was her..., i mean naked lias and Fairy photos and all that , i would wipe your history too

[Retardobot]

I'm not a moron. I don't look at anything objectionable on my workstation. That's what cellphones are for.

I've also discovered some files missing. WTF did she do...

[Xenolightning]

Do you not have user accounts.....

Sounds like you derped Rii.

[Retardobot]

I work in a studio.

We don't have user accounts on our studio machines. No one else accesses our machines apart from us.

No, I didn't fucking derp.
