When I used to post on here, I was a 13-17 year old.
Now I am 30 years old. I moved from the UK to Greece, I live in Athens now.
I run a UK marketing agency.
I have enjoyed my life so far.
However I do miss the little community we had here. I have never again really been in something like...
Hi everyone!
I haven't posted here in a while but I was listening to 'Explosions in the Sky' and it reminded me of a thread when Vegeta discussed it so thought I'd come back and say hi.
First of all, wow this isn't Halflife2.net any more. I suppose it makes sense, seems even Valve are...
Since I finished Uni I've been doing go no-where jobs on and off and have found problems getting a proper job.
The thing is, I've never really wanted a job, the idea of working for someone else in order to make them money doesn't sit right with me.
I've also spent a lot of time over the last...
I'm trying to teach myself Javascript through the Euler Problems.
Problem one is:
Here is my code:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
var a = 1;
var b = 0;
var c = 1;
for (c=1;c<=1000;c=c+1)
{
var x = a%3;
var z = a%5;
if (x=0)
{
b=b+a;
a=a+1;
}...
Over the last couple of years I've found myself doing more and more writing, largely for the local student newspaper, however I've recently started a mini-novel on my experiences at University.
I'm doing it more for practice than anything else, I realise the quality of writing isn't that...
I've been reading and thinking a lot about the American prison system recently. All its brutalities, huge sentences and semi-institutionalised rape make for disturbing reading.
However, what really disturbs me, even more than the death penalty is the sentence of 'Life Without Parole'.

I don't know, but something about this video made me happy. This is how cops should behave, with unquestionable restraint there.
Even on a UK cop show, they would have been far more aggressive and rude.
I have two children. One is a boy born on a Tuesday. What is the probability I have two boys?
Apparently, the answer is close to a 1/3

Sounds like a total non-story and non-issue to me. No-where does the article explain exactly what they collected? Sounds to me they just noted that some networks were unsecure, it's not like they tapped peoples histories or anything.
So I've been meaning to take up running for quite a while, haven't done any regular exercise for about a year.
Yesterday I couldn't sleep, so at 5:30am yesterday I decided it was as good a time as any so went for a run. I live right next to the river Lagan in Belfast so it was beautiful to...
Hello,
I've been thinking about switching to Ubuntu, but not sure how hard it would be or whether it's worthwhile.
May main reason is I ****ing hate Vista, it's the stupiest worst OP I have ever used. ctrl+alt+delete takes you to that ****ing big blue screen. Every time you want to do...
Hi guys,
Here is my dilema.
I'm currently finishing my second year at Uni. Over this year I've been living in a house with 2 other friends.
We pay £180 a month each. One of the friends, signed a form in June last year, giving details of guarantors etc. and has been paying rent since...
