  1. Hoo boy... Nearly 2am, trying to sleep but my dinner decided to come back to say hello. #technicolouryawn

  2. Fetch! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftPOHM It's not a very good game... but we'll all play it just because of it's theme.

  4. lol... just clicked a speed camera at 202.90mph in a classic Aston Martin DB5 (upgraded R3-723) #forzahorizon http://t.co/jVTU2T0L

  5. Just treated myself to a pair of KRK KNS-8400 studio headphones.

  6. Simply saw far too little use to warrant keeping (clutter cleanup). If you require an online shared calendar, I recommend Google Calendar's feature set.
  7. Broadsword calling Dannyboy... this is Broadsword calling Dannyboy, over!

  8. Yeah! Besides the Extras menu, the graphic banner on the front page on the right and the link of the bottom right of every page on the site... it's near impossible to find.
  9. Please note the words 'site upkeep' in the Golden Pot option.
  10. Please don't forget to thoroughly check your bonfires (before lighting) for Hedgehogs tonight!

      My God just tells me to go to church every Sunday so I can eat his body and drink his blood... My God's weird.

      Imagination: That's Jesus body and blood that represents. Not God's... fool! ;)

      I'm having to physically restrain myself from launching into a theological discussion. I hope you appreciate that...

  12. Americans seem to use paper plates a lot it seems. How long can it take to wash a single plate?
  13. 2 things I've been cursed with are a weak bladder, and terrible amnesia. Still, this bottle of apple juice should take my mind off things.

  15. I use an SSD... no discs in there.
  16. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-GB/windows/buy For the price.... yup, it's worth it.
  17. Another fail. No Canterlot website. Therefore, we have to declare all those that fail to read the original post's instructions liars and they're showing someone else's desk.
  18. The items censored in my photos are the following: Two goats, teathered to a single post, drawn by WingedWolf (bought in auction at Confuzzled 2012) - I've lots of original art and commissions by WingedWolf. DVLA TaxDisc. One of two Wall scrolls by Scappo (bought in auction at AnthroCon 2012) Bezel and I buy lots art in convention Auctions. We're kinda like Furry art-dealers now. Just run around and took a few random snaps around my house... Most expensive piece is the original Blotch painting. (Salmon fishing wolf) Some of the art is my own. Like the drywipe board in the kitchen, green horse ears, etc. We try and always obtain originals. Don't really like prints. * bonus pointless photo of my kitchen to fill the collage space. XD
  19. First, to note; As alot of you may know, I am VERY critical of stuff and not afraid to speak my mind and only tend to comment on things I actually have experience with, not what some youtube video or blog tells me... so you'll know what I say here isn't buttered up or sugar coated. I bought Win8 Pro (Not to be confused with Win8 RT which is just for the tablets) on release last Friday (It's only £25 as digital download). I upgraded from Win7. It went very smoothly. The only (single) eyebrow raising moment was when it told me that MS Security Essentials wasn't compatible and needed to be un-installed. Bit weird that I had to google to find out that it has Defender built in. It installed... everything worked. PC boots quicker, everything feels snappier. Things I found and my thought process and feelings towards it; * It starts in Metro. Ok, I like messing about with the colours and arranging the panels how I like them. (They're not random at all) * Noticed I can get to ANY installed program (application as opposed to 'app' which when referenced are two different things) by just typing the name or part of the name. This is no problem as I have a keyboard, which it sort of like a little typewriter with all the letters I need on it... they're dying out. * Realised that there's pretty much no difference in a start menu and an App list on things like android. Same thing, presented slightly differently. * Found out all the keyboard commands that are essential. Win+D, Win+X, Win+i, Win+Tab, etc... This isn't exactly rocket surgery and became fluid and instinctive after as little as 10 mins playing with it. * Win+D got to and from my desktop (Windows 7) instantly. Win+X when in the desktop brought a whole bunch of controlpanel access items (Love this!), Win+Tab switched between Metro apps (Not normal windows applications as these are different), Win+I offers settings for individual Metro apps, etc. * Noticed that Metro is an add-on to Win7, not a replacement (Except on Win8 RT for tablets). It's important to know that Metro doesn't break or take anything away. It allows you to run all those nice looking Metro apps and Xbox SmartGlass etc. * Dual screen works... finally. Natively span wallpapers across both monitors or different on each and can have Metro apps take small parts of a screen whilst the rest taken up with Desktop etc. Easy as drag-dropping. * Started to explore metro apps. There's not kajillions like on Android market, but very easy to browse and some of them, like MetroTweet (I bought the pro version) seems to work very nicely, enough for me to replace TweetDeck on the desktop! * Everything works as it should. No drivers stopped working, no incompatibly issues with anything pre-installed, nothing. I did however play with the re-install options. There's an option to re-install win8 and keep all your settings and programs etc or a simple clean install wiping everything... I wiped everything at this point (just to see). It was INCREDIBLY PAIN LESS. WOW!!! This is how windows should have been YEARS ago!. It just got on and installed it fresh. Quicker than I remember any windows installs I remember. No disc required, no input needed... I didn't need to tell it what keyboard layout and other tedious nonsense. It just worked. That along with the enhancements to the portions that resemble Win7... Microsoft has done good. Again, Metro isn't Windows 8. It's an addition. All your Win7 stuff's still there and still very easily accessible. You don't have to use Metro at all. But it's nice arranging your metro stuff and information feeds how you want them! If you're running a tablet with Windows 8, it's Windows 8 RT, not the full thing. To note, as a former Ubuntu user myself, Moving to Win8 from Win7 was NOTHING like moving from Gnome to Unity. The Ubuntu transition was so drasticly different in experience I stopped using it, not wanting to bother installing gnome manually. Comparing Metro to Unity is a very bad comparison. Metro also doesn't replace the 'windows experience'. It's an addition. (unless you're running RT).
  20. Watching 'IronSky'. Most ridiculous thing I've ever seen... has made me laugh a couple of times though.
