  The Oxford Companion to Cheese
Posted by: robkelk - 12-30-2016, 04:04 AM - Forum: General Chatter - Replies (1)

According to http://www.cbc.ca/news/entertainment/ox ... -1.3915679]this review, there is now an Oxford encyclopedia devoted entirely to cheese. Yes, it has an entry for the Cheese Shop sketch. Yes, it has an entry for cheese-related tattoos. Yes, it has an entry for reindeer's milk cheese. It's an Oxford encyclopedia, so it's encyclopedic turned Up To Eleven.

I think this one's going onto my godua-get-a-copy list.

  ATT member
Posted by: LulzKiller - 12-27-2016, 06:32 AM - Forum: Introductions - Replies (1)

After much nagging from other staff members on ATT, it's for the best I join this forum so I can engage in the threads relating to ATT and therefore be more productive in terms of contacting those who contribute to ATT.

I apologise if this means I am not that active on other parts of the forums.

I bid you all a warm welcome nonetheless!

  PM's Erased
Posted by: Dartz - 12-27-2016, 02:31 AM - Forum: Forums - No Replies

Anybody else had their PM's erased or reset to zero ?

I checked my inbox and it's all zero... including a scene from Cobalt I wanted to use for the Melancholy of Mackie Chan and some plot related items.

Wop. Must've been a transfer bug. They're back.

  Bob can't log in
Posted by: robkelk - 12-25-2016, 04:13 PM - Forum: General Chatter - Replies (6)

Just got this email from Bob, who asked me to pass it along:

Quote:I, and at least one other user who's emailed me about it, cannot log on to Yuku -- although I can see the boards are active and that others have logged in and are posting, I'm getting a fancy "Sorry, we're down" graphic when I try to log in myself.

I've emailed Yuku support about this -- as I can't log in to post on the support forums -- but given the holiday I'm not expecting a fast turnaround.

-- Bob
If anyone else is having the same trouble, rest assured that steps are being taken ... but probably slowly.

An article about this product which seems to come down on the "pretty sad" side can be found here.

  A gift from the Raspberry Pi Foundation - a free OS for older PCs
Posted by: robkelk - 12-23-2016, 05:16 PM - Forum: General Chatter - Replies (1)

The Register: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2016/12/22 ... _pcs_macs/]Raspberry Pi Foundation releases operating system for PCs, Macs

Download link to the 1.3GB ISO is near the end of the article.

From the review, this looks interesting enough that I might just grab it and try it out on one of the "boat anchors" I haven't taken in for recycling yet.

  Another distant teaser...

"There's always a price for magic, Dawn, *especially* something 
like a resurrection.  If it looks like it's free, that just means 
the price is hidden because it's more than you'd want to pay. 
Any spell *this* powerful that an amateur can cast with only
minimal preparation...  it's a trap.  It's designed to hook you, 
hook your soul, for someone or something that wants it for their 
own reasons.  You'd be better off summoning a god and offering to 
bargain -- at least that way when you find yourself in Hell 
you'll know *why*."

"My price?  My price is *duty*, and the simple truth that I can 
*never* have a normal life.  Not when my unguarded touch can 
vaporize plastics and rot organics and enchant steel.  Not when I 
can *never* let my guard down completely around other people --
especially and worst of all my wife.  I'll probably never have 
children of my own.  I'll probably never reconcile with my 
parents.  I may never even get home to *try.*  That's my price,
Dawn.  It's paid in sweat, and blood, and *gallons* of tears, and 
with every second of my life that ticks away while I search for 
the Earth where I was born."
