Interestingly, that articles states (in the right hand box): "If an amount is too large to be rightfully yours and you knowingly spend it, you're in trouble" In the op's case he clearly thought it was rightfully his and spent it as such. I

I do not believe there is any obligation to pay back accidentally overpaid sums in the UK. I base this on the fact that if you receive money from some-one accidentally (they got the account number wrong for example) you are under no legal o

I see the problem as an issue of trust with people identifying themselves as a potential customer or non-customer (some-one who would never pay for your content). Because there is no immediately lost revenue when a non-customer views premiu

According to Sandvine 2007 Internet report, BitTorrent is 52% of upstream and 10% of downstream traffic (in North America). At the time this put it behind Netflix (24% total) but on a par with HTTP (17% total for both) for aggregated net us

I see it as a failing of A-Level Computing more than anything. But I found about half the of first year was wasted on me, to break this down: Com 1001 - Software Engineering Crossover Project UML, requirements, analysis, design etc. All cov

This makes me slightly too happy. I lost less than 1% in Computing A-Level and am on track for a 1st at university, yet I barely scraped a B at GCSE ICT and have memories of writing ~sentence an hour. Hopefully this will increase university

I think the major aim is to attract the attention of employees at other more mainstream websites into pressing for similar action elsewhere. Facebook and Google are the two obvious ones, if either of those decides to join in then the majori

I've really struggled with sleep schedules recently (varying from getting up at 6am to 3pm within a week, due to various late-night engagements whilst trying to get up earlier). I have found that setting an alarm and counting down from 10 t

One of the reasons it costs less in the UK is because the NHS bargains the costs of drugs (and machinery etc) it buys down. This works partially because they can and do refuse to buy the drugs deemed too expensive. I don't have any statisti

Just added EDIT: This shows as a ratio (+$ from internet : no difference : +$ from movie). For - 23 : 3 : 55 0.28 : 0.04 : 0.67 Against - 15 : 0 : 6 0.71 : 0 : 0.28 So ~70% of people who received more funding from one party support the bill

This is common supermarket practice in the UK, they buy product in and put it on sale at a high price and then after 30 days they're allowed to slap sale signs around them. It's most obvious with wine (the amount of £5 reduced from £10 bott

I'd have said that for impressing people with small pieces of code something like SecondLife scripting would be ideal. You can manipulate objects in a 3d environment using simple code. Who doesn't enjoy programming a gun?

Since when were the words honest and tactless synonymous? There are plenty of ways of telling people something they don't want to hear without being incredibly blunt. This man appears to get off on the while confrontational part of not lyin

I upvoted to get the thread noticed. Not even because I think 4 hours will make a difference but because I saw the comments on your site and there were a few other people who seemed interested in doing the same thing. If this thread getting

The problem isn't the infographic it's people spouting bullshit statistics. This is hardly a new problem, learn which sites are trustworthy and which are not. The only 'problem' is that infographics are really good at getting across a messa

I removed this because this was only a single day offer and I am uncomfortable with leaving everything up in the public domain without the owner's permission. Besides which the official site appears to have recovered.

Can't try the app but that's a really slick homepage, just saying. EDIT: Although if you have a small width (half screen, 540px) you can scroll sideways and break it on firefox.

Thanks for this information, I had assumed the low-carb diets I'd heard a lot of US people were eating were some form of Atkins diet aimed at just losing weight. Clearly I stand corrected.

I eat OK (I tend to cook chillis and currys using sauces, a couple vegetables/pulsars and meat), however I exercise at least 3 times a week (games of football [soccer], run, squash, climbing etc). I also drink a few pints of water or cordia

I'm looking at it as a potential NAS device EDIT: Just realised there is no e-sata, which I misremembered it having, still a USB2 NAS device is OK and far cheaper than anything currently available.

This is something I find very interesting. A non-elected official provides something interesting, they are not fighting to be re-elected every year. If they are not worrying about re-election they are able to pass unpopular laws and they ar

This is truly the big problem with Spotify. They're completely at the mercy of the big labels/distributors, who aren't receiving enough money for Spotify to matter to them that much. Whereas Spotify completely cannot afford for labels to pu
