  1. hmm just measuring that... looks like they are pretty long? i measured a tee i have and the hak5 tee is 6 inches longer at the bottom, is that right?

  2. About 4 years ago I pondered buying a laptop. I had a choice between a VAIO T series (small) and a B3VP (14") which both boasted 7 hours battery life - which is a hellalot more useful than 3 hours! The small one was £1,500 and the one I got was around £700.

    I learnt a few things:

    1) Gaming on a laptop is impractical

    2) Carrying a laptop that wont fit in your backpack is impractical

    That being said, spending £1,500 on a laptop would not have been worth it either. So i'm leaning towards recommending the Eee.

  3. Im sick of hearing about how image verification things are crappy. So i'm thinking of alternatives.

    My contact form got spammed a while back, and you can see here what I did about it, which has worked really well.

    But for a larger scale solution, I was considering a context based language solution. For example:

    To verify, please select the correct word:

    Jack and Jill -Please Select- the hill

    1. darren

    2. wess

    3. the evil server

    4. went up

    5. my ass

    6. and it hurt

    and those would be the options. I think thats clear, if not i'll make a screenie, but please give your comments / suggestions.

  4. PDFs are nice because you can only print the pages you need. But reading stuff off the screen is lame if there's a lot of it. And it's much nicer to sit somewhere else to read a lot, otherwise you get distracted by games and porn.

  5. wow it knows me...
