Skype stole some of my money a couple of years back - using their unused credit scam. I have a very simplistic view on honesty and integrity. I have always tried to be honest in all my dealings and I expect others to behave in a similar man

The simplest way is probably to do what Richard Branson (Virgin) just did and buy a small existing deposit taking bank.That way you get the legal entity and all of the controls and procedures already in place and can start to expand the ope

You are quite right - this is a carefully managed publicity stunt which presumably has tickled the BBC's fancy - perhaps it is otherwise a slow news day?

I must admit to being one of those people who automatically upmods any zero or negative comment that is not actively rude or antagonistic. I had not thought about the serendipitous consequences of more than one person doing it at the same t

Have you noticed that every post that is BORED - BORED BORED - with mindless speculation about new possible maybe crappy consumer goods from a once computer company get voted down? Well all the intelligent folks have,

For the sake of Christmas if not our collective sanity - please stop posting this sort of crud. Who cares about posts about what a consumer goods company might market at some indeterminate time in the future? I for one could do with a holid

I have had a go at writing both a small interpreter and a small compiler. I found both exercises intellectually rewarding and will probably come back to this at some time in the future. I used the .NET platform and the IL assembler language

The text of a submission should be the title text of the article being submitted. This is unlikely to contain a link. thus the need to supply such functionality is just about zero. Editorialising the title of a submission is not encouraged

Cataclysmic event? An incoming asteroid or the Yellowstone super volcano erupting - both cataclysmic I suppose with a finite chance of occurring. Both of these would probably have a chilling effect over the short term (couple of hundred tho

I still think it is a valid question. If you purchase an "unlimited" data plan - just how restricted a service are you prepared to accept? Until some sort of consensus is achieved for the term "unlimited" I can't see how anyone can have a s
