Having problems with the new speakers (link) I bought back in April crackling a lot. They did a little before I moved house this week but now it's worse. The speakers plug into the sub-woofer and they still crackle when the sub-woofer is not plugged into the PC. If the PC is turned off then the...

It's been a good while since I last fell in love with a band, so I thought I'd share. Last.fm (few tracks): http://www.last.fm/music/Grammatics Spotify (whole album): http://open.spotify.com/album/0Pis4C9oKjPtMYoBQUFkHP Caveat: Singers voice seems to be a bit marmite, so maybe best to avoid if...

Righto, let me start by stating that I'm in the UK, so dealing in pounds here. As a graduation gift to myself I've decided to buy myself a new computer (well almost, keeping psu/case/monitor). Starting with a budget of ?500ish, with potential to go up to ?700 only if it's really worth it. After...

"An eight-year-old boy has sparked an unlikely outcry in Sweden after failing to invite two of his classmates to his birthday party. The boy's school says he has violated the children's rights and has complained to the Swedish Parliament."...

Righto, for one of my final year uni modules, I need to build an online application that builds up data by looking at other websites, preferably XML/RSS feeds. I initially wanted to do this with the (football(soccer)) premier league and build up my own table site using their results, etc. But...

Finally caught on the bandwagon ey? http://www.ledzeppelin.com/ http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6990704.stm £125 for tickets :/

This question's mainly for those in the UK. Was wondering what official ID cards are out there for students. While our campus card at Durham uni lets us into most bars in durham, it let me down when i went the manchester to visit friends as it has no date of birth on it. I can use my passport if...

Heya, with the DS lite coming out in the UK in a couple of months (i think), I was looking at trading in my old DS to get some cash towards a lite. I was wondering if anyone knows how much i'd get for the old one, as paying £50 for an upgrade seems a tad expensive.

I'm typing this whilst having to shine a torch on my laptop screen in order to see anything, so excuse the typos :D Basically, about an hour ago my laptop started making funny noises and the screen was flickering. It carried on for a while before stopping, it then started up again but this...

New Muse single, 19th of June. That's about all we know :P *hypehype*

http://www.readingfestival.com/ Blergh :x I was actually looking forward to reading this year thinking it might be a decent lineup for once. But no... I would absolutely love to go see Muse on the saturday but that's the only band i like that is on that day, not worth £50 :/

Right, so I went to see Death Cab for Cutie at the University of Northumbria Student's Union in Newcastle last night. Bus from Durham was about 45 mins, queued for about 30 mins before we got in. The venue was pretty large, we were at the front near the barrier, I was unfortunate enough to have...

Sorry to those of you who get fed up with threads about this guy, but I thought this was pretty bad. At the start of the month, a guy who was a regular at metalgearsolid.org commited suicide despite the best efforts of those on the forums to talk him out of it. Ever the vulture, Jack...

Righto, My Clan Leader has asked me to look into putting a command on the CS: Source Server that when /register is typed in game chat, this loads a webpage with forum registration. I presume this is server side coding, which i have not touched before. However I'm not new to programming. Any...

Right, i'm looking at getting a proper mp3 player for a christmas/own money present. And i need YOU( :O ) to help me out a bit in making a decision. I've looked at the couple of threads that have been around recently, but things seem to change pretty fast, so i thought more up to date opinions...

If you've been following the news lately you should have seen stories about the latest westerners that have been taken hostage with demands for withdrawl etc, etc. I found this: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/4506970.stm rather interesting. Basically one of the guys held under...
