Zapped from the Play store: Another developer gets no sense from Google, appeals to the public

Re: Paranoia

I remember playing that... and the additional Acute Paranoia pack ... showing my age so better get my laser proof coat...

Talk about a ticket to ride... London rail passengers hear pr0n grunts over PA system

As an honourary Northerner...

...I'm sure that same train will be stopping at Wetwang and Penistone soon. That sub-heading takes some beating too.

MY GOD, IT'S FULL OF CARS: SpaceX parks a Tesla in orbit (just don't mention the barge)

Core stage failed to land when it ran out of TEA/TEB ignitor, NOT fuel.

Elon Musk gave said in the news conference that they had run out of TEA/TEB (triethylaluminium / trielthylborane) ingnitor mix, so only one of the 3 engines started on the final approach. Reports of propellant running out are incorrect and being widely reported.. as usual. El Reg can do better! Running out of tea seems so HHGttG though...

Re: old events.

Where as I wouldn't be in a position to differ, those boffins at NASA might:

...Around 200 decent craters from 2009-2016, and a lot of secondary debris from smaller stuff.

Tinfoil hats on lads! (any one of three icons here - which to choose?)

$10,000 Ethernet cable promises BONKERS MP3 audio experience

Won't anyone THINK OF THE CHILDREN?

Unless you buy the MUCH CHEAPER DENON ALTERNATIVE ... http://www.amazon.com/Denon-AKDL1-Dedicated-Discontinued-Manufacturer/dp/B000I1X6PM/ref=cm_cd_ql_qh_dp_t

THEN you can feed the kids with the $2000 change...unless its £=$ exchange rate. again.

Won't anyone THINK OF THE CHILDREN?

Now feeding your kids will be tricky! Unless you bought the Denon version & trousered the $2000 change for food!

Only $8000...what were they thinking of? Audioquest is such a ripoff. £=$ too i'll wager...

Rap for KitKat in crap app wrap trap flap: Android 4.4 is 'meant to work like that'

close to best title ever, but beaten

Nork splash shot snapped by passing satellite.

Orbiting pap pic shows duff commie rocket in flight

Just the right balance of innuendo & technology... extra points would have been awarded for use of Jap's Island in there too, but maybe next time.

Chinese Jade RABBIT SIGHTED ON MOON by NASA probe

Title is optional, rabbit poo is not

Is it me or was there some (jade) rabbit poo a few pixels below the lander? GIF reveals all!

Android FOUND ON TABLETS inscribed with WORD OF GOD

Cant help noticing...

...the nearest theist is holding it wrong. Looks like its in landscape to me!

I am NOT a PC repair man. I will NOT get your iPad working

I blame google myself

Try telling someone to go to a website by patiently giving them the URL. They type the www. in the bloody google search box, cos google is the internet innit? Address bar? what's an address bar?

Re: @CountZero "May contain Comic Sans related humour" Sorry, I did not get........

Can't claim its mine, it's from the book "Just My Type" interesting book too. Esp with the hate filled section on comic sans...

May contain Comic Sans related humour

Comic sans walks into a bar & orders a drink.

The barman says, "I'm sorry, sir, we don't serve your type in here."

Ten movies inspired by video games

Edgar Wright pwns Uwe Boll

A slightly different category: A film in the manner of a video game, sorta. Scott Pilgrim; I salute you 10/10 (beers)

Rainbow Islands

Optional, rather like a social life of a teenager with an Amiga A500

I blame the breakup with my 1st girlfriend on Bubble Bobble and Rainbow Islands, Thanks Andrew Braybrook, great arcade conversion.

Is it me, or is it ironic that Amiga is Spanish for girlfriend?

Coat please, the one with the 512K wedge of cheese memory expansion in the pocket (with RTC)

Star Control

Retro Lives!

Star Controllers yearning for some modern good times should try Space Pirates And Zombies (AKA a nicely unPC SPAZ) plenty of very non PC laughs and some of the best gameplay since...the original. Refreshingly done by 2 coders in their metaphorical bedroom rather than the usual army of Zombies working at a major studio.Only a tenner too!
