Saw this on a hosting forum and loved the language. I don’t agree that the hosts require beating - I think they’re really rather good and wish that they all have enough time off to play poohsticks.
Please drop the f*cksticks and pick up some cluesticks and start beating each other with those for a while.
Cordially,
Mr. Dissatisfied Customer
(P.S. the hosts in question are Dreamhost and they nobly host this blog and my other sites. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them for almost every hosting circumstance. If you sign up through this site you’ll be helping me pay their paltry bills - thanks!)

It’s possible Mr Purdey has been charged for the gas used up during the explosion that destroyed his house.”(The Daily Telegraph) Read the rest of this entry »
An irreverent look at the world of Linux and Open Source. The Wolverhampton based bunch provide a welcome UK voice amongst the glut of US based offerings. If you’re easily offended by industrial language then listen from behind the sofa.

Microsoft release a “critical update“
“This item updates the Bookshelf Symbol 7 font included in some Microsoft products.
The font has been found to contain unacceptable symbols.
After you install this item you may need to restart your computer.”
Hilarious.
