  1. That's a pretty generous use of a capitalised "haha" and a laughing emoticon...
  2. Israel Kamakawiwo'ole - Somewhere Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World
  3. Goldfrapp - It's Not Over (cover of a cover)
  4. I spose you could do some lads, doesn't quite give the same impression when you tell your mates the next day: "Met this guy last night at a party, I did the old in-out-in-out on him!"
  5. Techically, my understanding is that the data coming from the proxy will almost always be unencrypted meaning that packet inspection by the ISP is possible. As for the practicalities, what proxy server provider is going to allow an enourmous amount of bandwidth to pass through them for free? And if they end up charging then they'll become targets for the aurthorities. Not to mention you'll have a load of people using anonymous proxies with a poor privicy policy that will result in: a) data being mined by the operator, even if you only use it for torrent traffic etc. there's a possibility, traffic logs can be easily obtained by someone with a court order. Don't get me wrong, I'm far from an expert (as seen here!) as it's been a while since I even looked into such things. I'm sure another tech guy can clarify matters. And it's moot anyway, the government doesn't exactly have a great track-record in implementing legislature that has anything to do with the Internet, and their record of major goverment IT systems speaks for its self!
  6. People, usually kids, throw this idea around all the time without understanding what a "proxy" actually is, or the practicalities of implementing it.
  7. There aren't billions of dollars to be recouped by stopping child porn
  8. That's what it should be! And what's with all the best friend nailing on TF, I'm currently in that f**ked up situation and it's gonna end badly, depite how hot it is.
  9. I had the same problem with my TalkTalk connection, I called them up and 1st Line did that "check" and fobbed me off, then I forced them to escalate me to 2nd line and they did a lot of tests and still found nothing. Then they increased the line power and it worked eventually, with a 2MB increase in speed too... I don't think there's much you can do at your end, you just have to hope they fix it/it fixes it's self! Edit: The BT test socket did nothing for me, but it's worth a try!
  10. Is it too hard to rotate, or is this the new myspace angle?
  11. I think it's time for bed, last night was certainly an eye-opener!
  12. That is creepy, but then again what's she gonna do?
  13. Not secure enough with your sexuality to answer a light-hearted, hypothetical question? YOU'RE IN DENIAL.
  14. That comment blates means you are. And: Gordon Ramsay Michael Palin Boris Johnson
  15. First time in three years that I don't have to buy something, and what a f**king relief! Edit: Oh shit, my Dad's birthday is the 14th so I do have to buy something!

    Iq

    Not to mention this test means as close to f**k all as it's possible to get.
  17. You don't. You just knock them the f**k out.
  18. That is proper ghetto. Like a crack den with internet access.
  19. Writing up something, I'm getting quite into it but I thought I'd give myself a break and re-watch Californication!
  20. Ha, I accidently watched it on the day of release, just came accross it on Stage6, looked it up and realised it was released a few hours ago! And I can't wait to see Everybody Loves HypnoToad!
  21. Amazon still says 07/04/08 and I can't find anywhere that says otherwise, R4 is released in March. I hope you're right though! And they will do 4 of them, the next one expected for release in 08... I won't hold my breath.
