More info here, it can be removed too. Let me know if need be as Computer Active has a new feature all about removing it (haven't read it yet).

How to Stop Windows 7 or 8 from Downloading Windows 10 Automatically
http://www.howtogeek.com/228551/how-to- ... d=noscript

It's the sort of reason I've always turned off updates altogether and just taken images of my HDD or had it backup to an external drive in the background - just about every company doesn't bother their arse testing the fcuking things. Of course, 10 now has mandatory updates for the average consumer... a genius idea :roll:

Triple decker of fail here:

Layer 1: In the control logic for an absolutely static value I find, instead of ="D -", a bit of vbscript
Layer 2: the vbs pretty much consists of IIF(Field("X")="0","D -","D -")
Layer 3: Field "X" can literally NEVER be equal to "0"

:x

The Guardian's outdone itself

Playboy’s big cover-up is anything but a victory for women | Charlotte Proudman | Comment is free | The Guardian
http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfre ... ornography

IIRC the women in porn tend to be much better paid than the men, a touch point usually, but of course that doesn't fit the narrative here. The implication that female porn stars don't know what they're getting into is laughable at this point. Modern tech alone makes it so, never mind how naive you'd have to be.

I'd be one of the first to say modern culture is laughably sexualised, but at the end of the day that only happens through supply and demand. And an awful lot of that demand (I'm not talking about porn) is from women themselves supporting billion dollar industries designed to make them believe they're in competition with other women.

If it didn't, it does now!

I knew there was a tiny rip in them, but clearly that was because they were never made right in the first place. On further inspection the waistband Levis logo was damaged too, looked sliced in one part ffs.

I've had this happen to me a couple of times at work. First was in hospital when we used to keep lots of stuff on our person (wallet, keys, mobile, bleep, handbook, patient lists etc). Squatted down by the side of a patient's bed to examine them. Had to sneak off to theatre and wear scrubs instead. Second time was in a GP surgery when I was wearing tight trousers and had to pick up some scales off the floor. Had to drive all the way home and change during my lunch break. Kept my backside away from patients during the rest of the morning.

Surely that's just good advice anyway.

I'd never heard of it either and it looks like a carbuncle, why would I want to view it?
