  1. I like being unemployed. I have plenty of things to keep me busy, in fact I don't have nearly enough time to do all the things I'd like to.
  2. I'm not a good photographer by any means, but here's a useful tip I discovered that not many people seem to be aware of: when taking a photo of something still with a longish exposure (which will happen automatically when you use a digital camera in low light, for example), turn on the timer. It usually makes the photo come out less blurry. The reason for this is that you jog the camera by pressing the button, so it's more likely to be still if the photo is taken a few seconds later.
  3. My parents have it. Every time I use their computer I find something new to hate about it. It's not just that the whole UI is poorly-conceived; there are so many little things wrong with it. I'm not an MS-hater; quite the opposite. I love Windows 7. But 8 is just terrible.
  4. While I no longer listen to most of the music I liked between the ages of about 14 to 18, my music taste has only expanded in adulthood, rather than changed. What I mean is that I'm continually getting into new stuff (most recently I was surprised to find that there's a lot of contemporary worship music I enjoy) but I still like the large majority of the music I liked in my 20's.
  5. Huh, I thought he was Belgian. Live and learn.

    Use the plain text editor, and put [media] tags around the YT URL.
  7. So why are you so reluctant to answer it?
  8. IP addresses change over time, even if a user stays in the same place. And the forum's search function is broken anyway.
  9. Well initially I asked so that I could offer to merge your accounts. But I'd be lying if I said your reticence wasn't making me a little suspicious...
  10. I am very sorry to hear that. Best of luck with the future.
  11. That's what I heard. The comedy element is my favourite bit, so I don't feel any need to check out the first one.
  12. I haven't seen the original AFAICR, but Evil Dead 2 and Army of Darkness are both great.
  13. I'm happy with my setup. I have a pretty good hi-fi (not super expensive but I'm not an audiophile anyway), a bunch of Mathmos gizmos and a comfy sofa. I just wish I organised my time well enough to use them more often - these days I mostly listen to music through my ancient PC speakers while writing shit like this instead.
  14. Because of the stupid rich text editor. When you paste a link into it it automatically adds tags around it, which prevent it from embedding. Use the plain text editor instead (by clicking the lightswitch button in the top left hand corner of the editor) and put media tags around your video, and it should work: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BbC52LN-GE
