This was on at some point during the week, and my shiny new V+ box was set to record it. It’s a film that sort of interested me when it firm came out but I never actually watched. Got round to seeing it last night, and… was a bit disappointed. Firstly, it isn’t scary. So I can’t put it down as a horror film, as it’s too silly. But then it can’t be a comedy (even though Five billed it …
It comes in a bottle the same shape as Duvel, but although it’s almost as stong, it tastes much lighter. Very nice! Beerating: 4/5
It’s clear, it’s smooth and it doesn’t taste nearly as strong as it is. Lovely! Beerating; 4/5
I came across this strange thing today. One of the domain controllers wasn’t picking up new group policies. Basically, there were fewer folders in the policies folder in SYSVOL on that DC than in the others.¬¨‚Ć Looking at the event log, the following was thrown up: Event Type:¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć Error Event Source:¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć NtFrs Event Category:¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć None Event ID:¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć 13568 Date:¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć ¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć 06/06/2008 Time:¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć ¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć 12:17:46 User:¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć ¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć N/A Computer:¬¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ƭ¨‚Ć GWEN Description: The File Replication Service has detected that the replica set …
Yes, it’s cheap lager, but it’s exactly the sort of lager you’re supposed to have with spicy food, and unlike Stella it isn’t vile, and unlike Fosters it isn’t tasteless. Beerating: 3/5
For a litre of petrol. One pound sixteen. Just over four years ago, when I got my current car, a tank of petrol would cost me around ¬¨¬£30. Now it’s ¬¨¬£47. I don’t even have a choice, either – I can’t manage without my car because public transport in Norfolk is pretty much non-existent. Rubbish.
I never bought the PS2 version of Okami, but am looking forward to the Wii release on the 13th June (in the UK at least – US gamers have it already, I believe). The whole drawing thing seems to make so much more sense on the Wii. Anyway, here’s a video! From the press release: ‚âà?•kami tells the story of a mythical sun god who sets out to restore a dismal world, decimating the forces of evil who stand in …
Is this going to be a recurring thing? Who knows! Anyway, this is my iMac desktop at the moment.
Supposedly a “strong” beer, but at just 2.5% could almost be water. Tastes stronger than it is though, but is a bit too bitter to be pleasant. Beerating: 2/5
After upgrading to v1.2 (v1.2.0.325, in fact) of SyncMate, my Vario II (Windows Mobile 5 phone) decided it no longer wanted to talk to my Mac. Either of my Macs, in fact. I kept getting the message “Can’t start driver, error 2”. The “fix” suggested (deleting some files on the Vario II, reinstalling the driver, etc. – see thread here) then prevented the Vario II from talking to ActiveSync on my PC at work too. An uninstall of v1.2 on …
As I have been quite vocal about, Microsoft’s Xbox 360 downloadable content DRM is rubbish. When I replaced my Xbox 360 with a 360 Elite a couple of months ago, I lost the ability to play my games offline. What made it worse, was that before I bought a new console, I rang tech support to ask if I could transfer everything over and still play games offline – and was told yes. Naturally, they’d lied to me and having …
I’ve been spotted again. A lot. It seems the UEA did a major leaflet drop in the area, and so half the people I work with ended up with me on their doormat at some point over the last week. Amazing!
