2 days later, squiddy will be buying the books. Ideal christmas gift for your parents!

You don’t understand though, by being visionaries who disregard accepted margins of safety, they lowered the cost per (attempted) launch by almost 3%!

And the SM57 for things you don’t need a screen on.

A discussion on the other site claimed that the fuck-up was in the copy that Universal sent to Mattel.
And that wrong websites frequently end up on packaging in other industries.

Mattel seem to be doing the sorry-dance for it, so no idea if it’s true. Though I’m sure Universal would be very keen to not be involved.

Frank Zappa: I’m the slime

I once changed a friend’s autocorrect from “regards” to “lots of love”.

And I somehow managed to keep my mouth shut long enough for a lecturer to get a very funny email.

I’m just waiting for a third python to arrive with minor problematic differences.

Somebody should make a microsite with this graphic that updates every time there is an election.

I lost my glasses for 3 weeks, and was freaking out because I needed to drive somewhere urgently.

Yeah, they were in the car. Along with the emergency pair I always forget about :|

That’s my interpretation. Plus a little “hon hon, baguettes pay in pain flute”
Also, in the grander scheme, it’s not that much. If schneider are smart, they’ll say something like “how about if we donate $75k to local human feeding charities?”

He’s having a little more fun in the original.

There is a bright future for you at Foxtons.

People apparently rub them with IPA.

I need to have a try of this, as I regularly burn through 2032s.

Every Welsh pub tonight: “Did you know that the worlds largest penis is in Wales?”

Catwoman: What’s a hroom?

Awesome work, thankyou for taking the time to do this.

I too love a metal USB stick for the keychain, and my old DTSE9 could do with a refresh!

They can add it to the pile along with IPV6.

I can only speak from a UK perspective, but most home ADSL/VDSL/Fibre providers don’t have limits, other than “if your usage is tanking the network, we’ll ask you to knock it off” type clauses.

Most providers are also signed up to an agreement that if your speed drops 50% below the agreed speed on the package on average, they’ll either give you refunds, or let you out of the contract.

The only ones that throttle are the bargain basement operators aimed at people who don’t care, and one otherwise very competent provider that for some unexplainable reason only gives 1TB by default, charging an extra £10 for 10TB.

And I guess there is also a pricing step up to guaranteed bandwidth. For business use, they tend to be things like 1gbits headline, 500mbit guaranteed burst, 100mbit guaranteed sustained.

From my experience, they’re “Hanging around outside the chip shop” gulls.
