<0> I remember a time before the 20 pence piece, and before the pound coin
<0> I recall the ha'penny
<1> you're old.
<0> I remember pound notes...in England
<0> does Scotland still have pound notes?
<0> they did for a long time
<0> I remember when a penny for the guy *was* a penny...not a pound
<2> I do believe it's that time of the day again. Time for Isaac's Daily Dumb Question.
<3> smsie: I can recall marathon. And we still have pound notes.
<3> and I also remember notes in england.
<3> When I were a lad..
<0> we 'ad better summers
<0> and better winters
<2> I know many of you run VMware on Linux. If I run it, can I run two copies of WinXP Pro at the same time, and if so, and something Very Bad (like a virus) hits one copy, will the other copy be safe?
<0> none o' this wishy washy rubbish you young 'uns get!
<2> Oh and does anyone run games under their WinXP Pro VM?
<3> CeruleanD: not if they want em to work they don't.
<2> I like London
<1> VMware is great... FOR ME TO POOP ON!
<0> CeruleanD: yes, probably not, you can but don't expect high perfomance
<2> Whoa whoa, unexpected runtime VMware hate
<0> CeruleanD: I don't...it's a **** town
<2> heh
<4> What commercial antivirus you they would recommend me to install a mail's server?
<0> beter money than anywhere else, but truly a crappy city
<3> smsie: I have photos of me on my 5th or 6th birthday, in May, making a snowman.
<2> Well, there were aspects of London that I liked over Boston in terms of "big cities", which I'm not a fan of to begin with for living.
<0> whyzzyrd: yeah, but you are from the arctic circle almost :)
<3> smsie: even if there is more money, you end up having to spend it.
<5> crap
<0> whyzzyrd: I know...
<3> smsie: I was brought up in yorkshire.
<3> siglite: ?
<5> which man page is it that lists the icmp codes?
<0> whyzzyrd: as I said. That's a long way north :)
<2> Haha, I have pics of digging my car out from under 4' of snow in April in New England.
<1> HATE SNOW
<2> I liked the way London's subway system is setup
<0> whyzzyrd: I once drove over Snake P*** in a blizzard in January...that was a scary experience
<2> And the cars were definitely cleaner for the most part. Depending on which color line.
<0> CeruleanD: as compared to...?
<3> smsie: driving in a blizzard is not nice under any circumstances.
<2> Boston
<0> whyzzyrd: indeed
<3> CeruleanD: the london underground is a ****heap of spit and string.
<0> CeruleanD: umm, the average *cesspit* is cleaner than Boston!
<2> Well yeah, but that's my point. :) London Underground might be a cesspit, but it still beats Boston, lol
<3> smsie: last time I did it was in a rear-wheel drive car, to boot.
<2> And while I can't attest to it, I've heard NYC is worse. *shudder*
<0> and whyzzyrd is corrent. LU is straining and held together by elastic bands and prayers
<0> whyzzyrd: ouch. I was in a long wheelbase transit with about 5 tonne of building material in the back...some of the downhill parts were VERY scary
<3> smsie: and sometimes they laggy bands snap.
<6> smsie: ewwwww..... I shudder to think of it.
<3> smsie: I bet so. not to mention the vastly overloadedness of a LWB transit with 5ton of **** in it.
<6> I push a wheelchair around - some hills get. worrying.
<0> whyzzyrd: it wasn't THAT overloaded....it was more the topheaviness that was a problem
<3> smsie: and the wee tyres they tend to fit to transits
<0> whyzzyrd: yep
<3> smsie: We're about to get a new van for work. We're favouring a Vito.
<0> whyzzyrd: I quite like transits...trying to brake using ONLY gears while going down some scary hills isn't my idea of fun in ANY vehicle
<0> I did most of the run in first and secnd gear
<3> smsie: We like the <boggle> 12 year </boggle> corrosion warranty on the Vito.
<2> Where is everyone from if I may ask? Just curious.
<0> which is a point...how to merkins manage icy weather...given they all drive ***** transmissions so can't use gears for braking?
<3> smsie: slide-crash
<6> smsie: gawd. You guys must go through some clutches
<0> whyzzyrd: no ****? *12* years? As in "one dozen"? How the **** can they warranty that?
<3> smsie: hence my boggling.
<0> Viking667: not really
<0> do most merkins even know HOW to drive a car with a manual transmission?
<3> Viking667: I've only ever had to replace a clutch once, and that's because it was already fecked when I got the car.
<2> Sadly, no :(
<2> I have a tough time driving an automatic. I keep reaching for the phantom shifter.
<0> I've heard horror stories of people driving up the M1 in first all the way. I dunno if they're true though
<3> smsie: they call them "stick-shifts". And no. most of em don't. So most of them couldn't even drive a shelby cobra.
<6> I know how to change gears, thankfully.
