General Discussion Area / Outage Friday PM
« on: 24 February 2017, 13:50:32 »
The OOF standby database has just crapped its pants.

Need a 30min outage within the next 6hrs to resync with primary database.  Likely to be between 5pm and 6pm today.

Apologies for the inconvenience, caused by my lunch!!

« on: 08 February 2017, 08:25:56 »
For Pillock of the year, I would like to nominate:
TheBoy for buying some springs to replace perfectly good springs, and buying the outboard CV boot instead of the inner.


It must be an age thing :(

...can somebody explain the moneysupermarket ads with the gay blokes, the fat builders and the fat slag?

Have I missed something? Are these mongs well known or something?

I live in a world I don't understand any more  :(

General Discussion Area / Advance notice, outage this weekend...
« on: 26 January 2017, 19:29:22 »
....assuming the shit turns up, it was ordered last week on a 3 day delivery, still not here  >:(

We need to swap out some non-redundant network gear, which will involve an outage of approx. 2hrs, and a series of outages of less than 2 mins each.

Its too cold to mess about with cars anyway, so hope the outages will be nothing more than a minor inconvenience.  If you need a guide for this weekend, I'd recommend printing it off :)

Why is it retards around here have no idea about setting up wifi?

Some mongrel with a new router has just put it on an overlapping channel, and has clearly just been updating their porn collection...  ....impacting my connectivity:

    Packets: Sent = 588, Received = 345, Lost = 243 (41% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
    Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 1971ms, Average = 191ms


'tards.  I think its time to make their life a misery  >:(

General Discussion Area / Games consoles
« on: 18 December 2016, 10:05:13 »
Whilst naughtily scoffing breakie in the lounge watch some trash on the telly (before I go back upstairs to carry on working  >:(), an advert for a games console (think it was Game's expensive offer for seXBOX One with Fifa) came on, promoting a discussion on console prices.  Not that I think they've gone up much - original gayStation was £200, Wii debuted at £175, even the SNES was £130 25yrs ago.

Which got us onto another discussion, about the SNES, as I bought one purely to play Super Mario World.  To this day, I maintain this remains the best platform game ever made, as yet unsurpassed.

Which also cause further discussions about other games, so here is my list of all time tops:

Platform: Super Mario World (SNES)
FPG: DOOM/DOOMII (PC)
Car racing: Grand Prix 2 (PC) / Mario Kart Wii

With regard to DOOM, obviously graphics and game engine capabilities have dramatically improved, yet nothing holds the atmosphere of the original.  And nothing else has ever ended up in my nightmares :P

Grand Prix 2 was superseded with Grand Prix 3 and 4, but these were in reality graphical updates, and to make it Windows compatible. Its Multiplayer was only local across serial cable though.

Mario Kart Wii gets a mention for its simplicity, and the online with friends capabilities until they shut the servers down :(

General Car Chat / Oh goody
« on: 06 December 2016, 18:53:44 »
Little bit of mist this morning, that means all the carrot crunchers here will have front and rear fog lights on for the next week  >:(

I hope to escape back to sanity by the weekend.


On the upside, I was given an Amazon Fire today :D

Outboard boot split on Zaffy, anyone know the steps to follow to replace it, and if it needs and special tools?

Got a broken front spring as well, is that a simple case of following same steps as an Omega?

When is this dross over?

Sick of the telly being non-stop 'dangle berries', and people rattling tins in front of me - The 'tards fail to understand it offends me, but easily get offended when I tell them what they can do with their tins  >:(
