Incorrect delivery address entered. Fail.

Correct house number and Postcode.....

We've had loads of builders/suppliers etc coming to our house in the last few weeks, all looking for a street that's a mile and a half away.

Good grief. I'd like to know exactly what the developers at Apple were smoking when they decided on the folder layout for iPhoto library files.
I swear the same photo can exist in 3 different places and is often duplicated or triplicated. What a mess.

I guess it depends on whether the photo has been modified. iPhoto duplicates images if you edit them, and retains the original so you can revert.

I agree, though. Very messy, and probably never intended for a human to interact with.

l3v1ck fail

Made the mistake of buying 'value' white paint.
It looks thick when you open it, but I'm sure I could have diluted a small bottle of Tippex down with 5 litres of water and got pretty much the same effect when I tried using it.

Also

Spammer fail.
Matt and I had those threads deleted within minutes. :twisted:

Lightspark, the open-source replacement for Flash can finally play iPlayer files - but only if you have access to holy water, the book of common prayer and three priests.

It's buggy as hell, slower than Flash and properly thrapes the CPU.

:roll:

Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition - back up to £25 everywhere and you can't get a good guide for it either, I'd actually be better printing something off GameFAQs :(

Left my wallet on the train. :evil:
Called one of the two students from the trip who remained on the train, yes, he'd found it.
Hopefully one of them will bring it in tomorrow as I've asked, cos I've a meeting on Saturday and a Christening on Sunday and I'll at least need to buy a card...

Spotify backtrack on their Facebook only login policy, at least in Germany.

While Germany has less than 30% penetration of Facebook and Spotify has even fewer users, they have removed the necessity for having to use a Facebook login, you can just use an e-mail address again.

Seems like hanging on Facebook's coat tails isn't always the wisest thing to do.

Do all new users have to have FB accounts to sign up to Spotify now (apart from Germany)?

What the fcuk is wrong with Google these days? It can't remember your settings, blanks your search query between, say, regular search and images, and every so often takes you to .com :x :x :x
