You lost me there?!

Yes it will! :¬)
That's the whole point of fibre pb - it doesn't suffer from attenuation issues like copper.

The only issues with distance are - distance from nearest 'green cabinet' if using FTTC.
FTTH/P (fibre to the home/premises) doesn't even have this issue but is rather hard to get.

Downloaded L4D2 again if you're interested in playing later Chris

Someone also gave me a Dota 2 key

It's almost as though God doesn't want me to have a career

Morning.

So, one of my hard drives (HP 1TB) went the other day and I didn't have a full backup of all my media files.

Luckily, most of them are bought on iTunes so I can just download the missing ones again, but it will probably take me ages on my internet connection. At least it's unlimited, which is something.

Another reason for being depressed about the state of broadband infrastructure in this country. Even when they do kick BT up the backside to get a move on with their Fibre rollout, it won't always make a difference to those of us further out from the exchanges.

I bought myself a Google Nexus 7 (32GB) earlier this week - very happy with it :¬)

I've just started adding some Bookmarks etc.
Ideal for checking messages, browsing while relaxing on the couch!

That's what we need. Bottled love chemicals. Would make things far easier than they are at present.

Afternoon.

Seems to be one of those days. Email not working, laptop not working. It all adds up to me not working.

@Chris - you can over-analyse everything but it's not healthy. Most people just go with the holiday and damn the history or religious aspect. After all, over analyse love and all you get is a bunch of chemicals and a built in automated instinct to keep the species alive.

Oh I know the reasoning behind it, but that reasoning is very flawed in so many ways. I'd love to know how many anti-royalists are currently setting fireworks off tonight, or how many catholics are celebrating bonfire night...

And christmas? Don't even get me started. Not a humbug, I love christmas, but I don't partake in any of the religious side of it, I just enjoy being with the folks. It's the only time I feel like I'm in a genuine family :-P
