Sticky: R.I.P nicknotnicked

R.I.P nicknotnicked

Today it is our sad and, frankly, distressing duty to report to you all that our long time poster and friend of the forums, nicknotnicked, has died. :(

We currently know very little of the circumstances, other than he apparently died in his sleep yesterday.

Nick joined the forums back in 2005 and we first met...

Anyway

Back to my GBFOR (Great Big Fuck Off Retirement). It was good working in the Labour National Communications Centre in the Toon. The temporary staff were mainly students or recently graduated people just about to start their working lives. There was a couple of old farts like me, but it was generally an interesting...

Scottish independence

Scottish independence

When Scotland voted to stay in the Union, it seemed likely that we would not be leaving the EU.

If we do actually leave (which I still don't regard as a certainty given the obvious contempt with which the political class views the will of the people) the point will be made - is already being made, prematurely -...

Arguments against Having children.

Arguments against Having children.

It really disturbs me how people respond to this issue.

There is huge amounts of suffering which was all avoidable if people didn't have children and yet people are willing to tolerate it and coexist with it and downplay it.

People don't take seriously the fact that large numbers of people on the internet say...

Screaming advice.

Screaming advice.

Pluto, can you advise me on the most effective way of screaming when you're in danger of being attacked?. For instance, what word do you use? I was thinking a very loud "Aaaaargh!" might be appropriate or maybe I should go for the classic "Helppppp!" And, what kind of voice should I adopt, should it be high pitched so...

Screaming Reg Perrin

Screaming Reg Perrin

Since Reg Perrin seems to be fascinated to the point of obsession by the incident that occurred to me in Leeds in the early 90's, in which two men attacked me and I screamed and they ran off, I have an important question for him.

First, I sincerely hope that such an attack never happens to you, Reg, or indeed to...

Poll: Are you all LED lights yet?

Are you all LED lights yet?

My place is all LEDs, every light in every room is LED lit, even my projectors are LED.
They:
use almost no electricity
run cold
are very safe
produce lovely clean, white light with no flicker
last for years without changing
cost about the same as an old fashioned type bulb

Are you all LED?

Energy saving light bulb threads

I think we should give these a try, apparently standard light bulb threads contribute to the greenhouse effect and the hole in the ozone layer.

There are now several brands of low-energy lightbulb threads that we could use instead. Has anyone ever tried them? Do they work like normal threads, or do they start off...
