usb flash disk not formatting to the right size from disk utility ?
make sure journaling is off when formatting a USB flash stick, as this takes up some of the available space, and the drive will show less free space than it is supposedly formatted to.
small sum of dvb-t2 boxes ? we seem to be the only people who are going for the dvb T2 broadcast kit, it involves a new chip being fabricated just to do it, and the current humax T2 box is at least £150.00 !! without any recording capability ? let alone dual tuner or any fancier features, poor value in my opinion.
Not a small sum in any respect considering people pay for a uk tv licence every bloody year to receive the supposedly “free†– view ! and lots of people have bought freeview equipment that is HD capable, only for the UK to switch standards on us.
The question is whats the bloody advantage of the T2 standard, if the DVB-T kit can already handle HD why did we feel the necessity to move to the T2 standard, what is the advantage ? because it better be bloody good ! so as to be justify wasting the publics already made investment, and expecting them to stump up even more money for kit to receive HD freeview when it appears unecessary ? Let alone the fact the HD freeview should have been brought forward in terms of delivery schedule considering satellite has had it for so long, and america HD freeview for ages before us, it was fully technically possible, they just stuck to the old analogue decommissioning changeover to all digital tansmission as the point at which to introduce freeview HD when in reality theyre are so many crap channels on the current Freeview transmission setup you could have knocked a few multiplexes together 3 years ago to create at least two Beeb run HD quality channels, using the current DVB-t setup, instead we have to feign greatful-ness for getting some HD channels in a new transmission standard 3 years late, to have not prevented, bloody murdoch sky and cable from making a killing out of HD standard transmission so that sky can pump more american cultural crap than we can shake a stick at, while freeview in the UK was pissing about, treating licence payers like second class citizens.
The beebs remit is to provide that content, HD or otherwise to licence payers with just as much priority as sky subscribers, why else do you think iplayer had HD content like almost 2 years before Hd freeview transmission had started as now on this T2 standard in just a few parts of the country. the whole thing stinks freeview HD is costing us more than a freesat box, and coming 3 years late imo.
And so few people are aware or even prepared to complain, in this sheeple consumer society, about an injustice they have yet to recognise as having occured. Whose ramifications involved many more satelite dishes than necessary being erected just to get HD playback of license fee payed for content, more freeview equipment, that is already HD capable having to be thrown into landfills unnecessarily, The increased degredation of our own english cultural identity, by further viewing and proliferation of sky channels whose bias is zillions of trashy content low grade channels whose main projection is of american culture, conquesting into the spyches of UK youth by the back door of psychological programming, with and endless diet of fame culture, money obsession and shallowness. These are large impacts, whose weight cannot be underestimated.
Freesat being a better idea, well its the only real choice for free HD content viewing at the moment, if you don’t mind bloody ugly sat dishes hanging from every flat and house the UK, including those that are semi aestheticaly , still currently using tv antenna’s, communal or individual.
If you read the schedule, it sounds like a guardian readers love-in, its all water projects in africa, black cowboys, disabilitys and everything foriegn that the comfortably well off, selfish I’ve got mine middle class types, love to indulge in, when their ignoring the issues of injustice in their own land, because it might mean they might have to stop and comtemplate their own selfishness for a moment.
Its all you would think this “community” of britain is now made up of, if this “community channel” is in anyway representative now, india this, china that, housing projects for ex offenders, according … to how this channel represents us, thats what the community is now in this culture. Jesus christ it makes you want to vomit, how we have this endlessly multi-culturalist overseas gazing, foreign loving serving and promoting bullshit propaganda rammed down our throats from the comfortable media types, to reflectively represent our supposed fing “community” back at us today. When you look into the mirror that supposed to reflect the british cultural community, all you see is everything but it. The media has been trying to program us with it for sixty odd years, Englishness is a happy clappy community of world peoples all living together in harmony ?!?! fucking not ! and whose expense was this at ? the english disenfranchised, and who, was this cultural experiment instigated by, without reference too or referendum given once, to the people it was going to affect, that comfortable class of political assholes who had power in the 50’s and 60’s, and it became so enshrined and unquestioned, that since then it has never been questioned as policy until its too late to do anything about, england committed cultural suicide. I just happen to be one of the generation who are old enough in this current time, to see the whole change and grow disdainful of the programming, which now leads to my own extinction. Never beleive in any sense of country or identity in this country, because if you live in england it will be used against you.
Fuck this channel it makes me so angry beyond dimension, community today is a word used to manipulate and further batter the beleaguered native peoples of this island into an endless self prostration and worship of that which isn’t british, let alone english, at every turn. In London today there are so few English people left, and resident, in the area I live, as to make their presence a token afterthought, a few old half dead ignorant, ill educated, unhealthy old people waiting for their place in the queue to an unattended co-op incineration.
This multi-cultural experiment has almost killed any sense of “community” in England. I wonder whether those who immigrated over the last 60 years, to this now fucked up country, and took whatever the already disenfranchised no voice native peoples had left from them, ever paused to think of what damage theyre presence might be doing to those classes who already had no voice and no power, I doubt they paused for even a moment as to whether presence might outcompete, and drown away a voice only just finding it feet from a thousand years of unjust and practically unchecked feudal and class privilege and stratification, as with all human beings who only seem able to concentrate on their personal well being and situation, I doubt they even stopped for breath, and comtemplated the impact on this native culture and its fragile cohesion. They were here for one thing, the ludicrous concept of approved off segregative multiculturality and the welfare and materialistic benefits of moving to a western civilised nation ? and now we must live in one of the most fractured cultures in europe, where only the filthy media can manage to programatically paint over the population, a thin veneer of happy clappy multicultural shine, over the deep dark well of discontent and distrust that now marks our culture, which in endless denial we refuse to recognise.
And Europe ? that rubbish just allows the more self agrressive commercialist types, self promotional internationally minded, culturally non denominational self servers, to roam further and abuse those less self agrandising gentler types in other nearby lands, I don’t Identify with that either.
I do on the other hand Identify with all the native peoples of the world and their fundamental right to maintain theyre own cultural identity whatever it maybe, determine the direction of their own culture, so as to enhance and maintain that beneficial biodiversity of human cultural groups. But the culture of the country of england is being slowly and inexorably overwritten by a culture of, approved of class replacement with foreign people. By a class who as of yet, have not had to compete with, or pay the price of such immigration, that they approved of and legislated for.
Community there is no “community” in England here anymore, Oh theres ethnic minority community representation and religious community representation, and sexual community representation and other such inhuman masonic groups serving there own self benefit, but is the english native community represented fairly by politics and government from within that maelstrom of speratist voices ? in my opinion that hasnt occured for sixty years.
dvb-t v dvb-t2 what were the eurocrats thinking ?
why did they choose dvb-t2 as a replacement to dvb-t in order to deliver HD programming when thousands of tonnes of dvb-t Hd ready capable kit has already been sold ? which will end up being landfilled, because of small decisions to pick a standard that requires the development of new hardware.
has anybody got any idea of the presumeably massive benefits of going this route.
sony sue “lik sang” sony import webtailer to death, for selling sony japanese consoles out of region, why are segregated region monopoly’s allowed in the first place ? i will never buy a sony console any more because of their proprietory nature. most corps are going the same way including Apple, theyre trying to stitch up delivery of content into their own pockets. And they always do it under the guise of brand quality control or safety or some such guff. Read this : from a post by willy105 on the gamepsot forums here
“In its statement today announcing its closure, Lik-Sang also included a list of Sony Europe employees who have ordered PSPs through the website, including Ray Maguire (Managing Director), Alan Duncan (UK Marketing Director), Chris Sorrell (Creative Director), and Rob Parkin (Development Director). The statement noted that “Sony Europe’s very own top directors repeatedly got their Sony PSP hard or software imports in nicely packed Lik-Sang parcels with free Lik-Sang Mugs or Lik-Sang Badge Holders.”
Doesn’t surprise me Chris Sorrell (Designer of Robocod) wanted such an import if your involved in the games industry, in any way you want and feel the need to experience all apsects of gaming not just the region your in.
this video quite obviously proves this is a kind of persecution and humiliation tactic, a kind of rape of dignity, for the person it is executed upon, these police officers should be stripped naked by force, and run through the streets for the local citizens to throw crap at, stocks style, the law above itself as usual. americans wake up and get change !
“no bitches after 11 ?” christ I hate this culture today, everything so denigrated.
Hi welcome to england, studying in bournemouth I hope ? rather than here to stay ? In a way, you and the grey squirrel have some similarities, you perceive “Mohamed Jaffar” as you have dubbed him ? an english squirrel ? logical to do so after all hes merrily living in england right ? where as really, you are unlikely to see a real english “red squirrel” because theyve been pushed back through attack, population and resource competition into small enclaves far north and on brownsea island, by what you have in your lap, the invading “north american grey squirrel”. Now in this little story, you will have learnt a fundamental lesson about how organisms compete for space and resources, and that only a truly evolved and aware creature is able to see how itself is behaving, or fits within this circle of forces related to breeding and resources, and the limited scope of actions related to it, and how slow breeding based evolution is in comparison to possible mental evolution, good luck in iran.
hmm if it only it were so simple, you see being a grey squirrel, here in the UK he could be the symbolistic figurehead of the procreative war being waged, by the big balled bullysome grey squirrel out inhabiting and killing off the even cuter red squirrel, cuteness is really an apparition in the eye of the beholder, inside that frame is all the machinistic seeds necessary to conquer and destroy, but for the sleepy moment he may, from our viewpoint be “cute”, ask something thats cute, whether its cute ? it wont understand the concept unless its using it as a tool to get what it wants. and alll babys are generally born cute so they get what they need. Also they like to sleep too much, and people find sleepyness cute a double helping of cute, hence why a skate chic might groove, over a dopey floppy skate dude asleep on sofa, something to do with the vulnerability inherent in openly sleeping.
