    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Read it more carefully and you will see it forecasts a 16% reduction in 'growth' of GDP, not total GDP!

    He obviously meant 'clones' but I understood perfectly what he meant so didn't alter it.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    It's funny how the good-looking ones adopt a western-lifestyle while the ugly ones adopt a middle-east lifestyle?

    Which already happened with torrent sites yet had no effect on the overall availability of pirate material and the same will be true for porn. And why should anyone care? Sites are already going out of business due to the deluge of totally-free (and mostly-pirated) streaming videos. There's...

    Things that annoy you

    You've got to admire the gall of a boss who has written into his contract that he still gets his bonus even if the firm goes bust!

    That remains to be seen. The Telegraph article only mentions UK sites, take it up with them. I've never had any problem accessing The Pirate Bay myself (although I prefer RAGBG) and I don't use a VPN. The same will be true for any porn site. And again why do I "need" to read it? Why does...

    My point was, you don't "need" to know any of this unless you are the owner of a UK-based porn website or habitual viewer of such sites and also that there are inumerable non-UK porn sites for which a credit card ID check is not needed. Please tell me how needing a credit card to access a site...

    Today's Telegraph Headline News

    Pornhub is based in Canada, the article is about UK-based websites. No, it seems you do! EDIT: I've now added a quote from the article to my original post to avoid any confusion.

    I had Jehovas knock once when I had very severe toothache. One of them worked at Boots and recommended Nurofen, it worked a treat!

    Or door-to-door salesmen who use the same line and get annoyed when you ask them repeatedly what it is they're trying to sell.

    Westworld

    All episodes or just the premiere? And will it air without the commercials as per HBO or will they ruin it as usual?

    Cryptocurrencies

    Has everyone burned out their graphics card mining cryptocurrencies yet? I've heard it said they can always flog off the graphics card when the cryptocurrency mania abates, who would want to buy a card that has been flogged to death and is probably clogged up with dust by now? On the plus side...

    Things that annoy you

    You can never 'own' a film. What you've purchased is a right to view it which (thanks to Digital Rights Management) can be revoked at any time and without prior notice. I personally object to the term 'boxed set' used by Sky and others since there is no 'box' or physical product of any kind.
