Gold meddler: Doctor Who is 50 years old TODAY

Well...

I thoroughly enjoyed "Day of the Doctor". Best not say to much about what happens. Spoilers and whatnot!

Prime Minister David Cameron in Twitter gaffe

Lmao!

Wonder if he'll be sitting down to have a discussion with the Mrs about this?

Which Who to view? Pick one from two: Doctor Who twin trailers hit the interwebs

"How many times can you save the universe?"

As many times as you like if you're a Timelord!

Coroner suggests cars should block mobile phones

How about...

Instead of blocking the phone, just have a system that records the fact that a dumbass is using the phone. So when he/she gets in an accident everyone can put liability on him/her and let the legal actions ensue. Bet that would work as a deterrent!

Sysadmins forced to CLEAN UP after bosses WATCH SMUT at work

Lol...

Not going to say how many times I heard "I must have been hacked." or "The virus just got on there." When the browser history told a different story!

Internet Explorer 11 for Win7 bods: Soz, no HTML5 fun for you

Re: Oh Microsoft

Isn't IE that thing you use in Windows to download a real browser?

Economical Indian MOM whips up her eggs en route to Mars

I for one...

am optimistic. It would be nice to see what someone can do on a budget without the contractor bloat!

Galaxy is CRAMMED with EARTH-LIKE WORLDS – also ALIENS (probably)

Who do you think runs the NSA?

Ain't that the truth!

Here's what YOU WON'T be able to do with your PlayStation 4

I know right...

It's like going back 20 years. Sure, back then all they really could be was gaming consoles. Todays consumer is expecting more, especially in this economic climate.

Well that settles that for me!

Here I was considering re-entering the console market. The way it looks for both the big offerings M$ and $ony I think I'll be staying out thankyouverymuch.

Maybe the Valve Steambox can save the day, who knows?

Storing punters' till receipts? UK.gov wants you to hand it over

Cash is king!

If this bothers you!

Lords give automatic smut censorship bill the once-over

So...

not only will we need to get permission to watch/view what we want, but the govt will have a list. Surely this law would fail as soon as it's taken to Euro court?

IT guy answers daughter's Facebook rant by shooting her laptop

How is it different...

than say hitting it with a hammer?

The father...

found out because they have a family dog with a FB account who she didn't block, lol!

UK gov rejects call to posthumously pardon Alan Turing

How is pardoning...

someone retroactively anything like this?

No, ofcourse I wouldn't. But were not talking about punishing someone, were talking about pardoning.

Meant...

Pardon, not Apologize...

How...

much does it cost to pardon someone who is dead?

Wouldn't...

hurt for them to do it either.

So, let me get this right...

From what the government is saying, it would be wrong for the German government to apologize to Jews, Homosexuals and political prisoners from circa 1940.

Well, it was in accordance with the law at the time...

The law is an ass!

Obama refuses to respond to MPAA bribery claim petition

"To avoid the appearance of improper influence"

To late! Oh, they are talking about going after Dodd.

I thought they may have been talking about themselves for some reason...

Judges probe minister's role in McKinnon extradition saga

Well...

the US govt has to blame someone for their failure!

Crossley cops two-year suspension

Indeed...

I would say this was done only because they had to (To much publicity). But it's still nice to see it has been recognized!

Phobos-Grunt 'crippled by US aurora station', 'is a bio-weapon'

While entertaining...

I have to come down on the "it's just broke" crowd. It happens!

Blow for McKinnon as extradition treaty ruled 'not biased'

Actually...

they are not, all U.S. bases in the UK are MOD property. They are only leased to the United States. UK law still takes precedence. Now members of the US military are covered by SOFA (Status Of Forces Agreement) which means if they commit a crime in the UK it is tried by the military judicial system!

Valve chief says Apple will own your living room

Gabe...

I don't care what you think about Apple. When are you going to sort out HL2 Ep3?

Which actor should play Steve in upcoming biopic?

I know...

Ian McDiarmid!

LulzSec claims responsibility for CIA.gov outage

Well...

"there are times when the argumentum ad hominem is all that is left."

You certainly prove that!

Lol...

Well, the post that you originally responded to by me might have something to do with that. Which by the way was a comment on other posts throughout the thread alluding to such.

Suspect away my friend. So I tend to write things quickly and not proofread. Usually because I'm to busy and can't be asked. Even with the spelling errors, did you still understand what word I was going for?

Now that you seem to have digressed into light ad hominem attacks by picking out minutiae. I would like to ask. If you are so superior, why do you keep responding?

Different people find different things funny, you obviously don't and I respect that. I would also like to point out that I would find it just as funny when whoever was responsible is caught.

;-)

That was the whole point I was making...

we are not going to see a spate of sponsored assasinations over this. The most that will happen is some harsh jail time!

Not like any of this equals the apocolypse or anything.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-13848510 (now that is funny)!

Oh...

I'm well aware that anyone caught will be dealt with harshly. My point is, I doubt we are going to see a spate of "suisides" or hit attributed to this!

Funny...

I thought this was about Lulzsec and the CIA hack. I do think there may be a thread somewhere about Manning!

I know...

it's like those people who go around posting their inane opinions on news sites...

I mean, what a waste of time, like anyone cares about their thoughts!

Or...

the CIA, and there record for getting things done!

Nooooo...

Bradley Manning is a scapegoat for an insecure military. The big issue with Manning is that he is in the military, he signed his rights away (pretty much). If he was a civvy I reckon they would have a much harder time trying to do what they are doing.

Also, what he is supposed to have done is completely different, he didn't deface some website. He leaked classified documents when he had a sworn duty to protect them, now, what Manning did wasn't morally wrong (my opinion considering content) he did break the law and he should get his day in court like anyone else.

But this is beside the point and not on subject...

Oh please...

and I thought I was wearing a tin-foil cap. They are not going to do anything dodgy to any of these they'll turn them straight over to the local police and it'll go through the courts as usual. They might get a bit of a heavy hand to make an example out of, but that'll be all!

You...

have watched to much Bourne...

Alleged LulzSec hacker still inside

Lol...

The whole situation is just silly. So far they haven't even charged the kid and the more it goes on the more it sounds like they are desperate to find anyone...

This is about revenge, not justice. Shame the people in authority (lol) seem hellbent on making themselves look even more like bufoons!

Is a shame this kids life may be ruined by this, but he played the game and must have known the risks. I'll be very surprised if they get a legitimate conviction out of this.

Brit censor stamps on The Human Centipede

Way to go...

now everyone will be after it, lol!

Twitter cock-up confession deflates Weiner

Hot Dog...

There is nothing better then watching a politician squirm when they are caught out. Why do they even try to lie about these things, he might have got away ok if he just held his hands up and admitted it!

Hackers pwn PBS in revenge for WikiLeaks doco

Internet tough guy!

"Well Mr and Miss Anarchist, if we had out and out anarchy and total lack of control there'd be nothing to stop me coming round your house with a shotgun and painting your walls a nice new shade of claret!"

Except, that you have to know who they are first! Also, they would have the chance to be waiting for you with a shotgun and take you out first!

Fourth Euro star truck christened Albert Einstein

PlayStation Network hack launched from Amazon EC2

HHmmmmm...

Did they find a notepad saying "Anonymous, we are legion" on the server? Lol...

Could be wrong, but this makes it sound less like Anons work.

Impatient punters trade PS3s for Xbox 360s
