  1. I have not gone to subway since they opened up all over the place. Used to frequent when I was at uni, was sort of a novelty back then as we only had one in Sheffield.

     

    A shame they have rid of the bacon etc, but since a few of them are in minority areas; they have to cater to that area. Makes good business sense.

     

    Chinese places that open here cater to the British, and serve dishes that cater to local tastes here. That is how the food biz works.


  2. Honestly with encryption stuff, I wouldn't trust open source so much. Just about anyone can edit and look at the code.

     

    I would go for big name software for that sort of thing, such as becrypt and symantec encryption desktop (for example).

     

    I'm not disrespecting truecrypt though, it is a good bit of software, and free at that. It is just.... you need to be wary of it is all.


  3. They did actually use to be quite helpful, provided you understood them. Today's "something bad happened 0x5318008" messages are far less useful.

     

    And the "this program has stopped working" with a green loading bar that looks for something and then only offers to close the offending application.

     

    The thing with programmers is, most of them only know that language, lacking communication skills and the ability to form sentences. This is why in every bit of software, you don't get error messages that are actually of any use.


  4. Almost? well considering you went with my suggestion.... anywho, if you search like I suggested, you might find something better, some good results came up https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=windows+movie+maker+alternatives&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&channel=rcs&gfe_rd=cr&ei=QBRiU5WmDaPR8ge32YDoCQ

    Also this (as I also suggested) http://alternativeto.net/software/windows-movie-maker/?platform=windows


  5. Of course, and you can even buy 1xx-in-1 MVS carts providing a 1:1 gaming experience, saving you the hassle and expense of storing tens of single-game carts...Did I mention that I have a minty Lordsvale (original L button layout, not later curved version) with a 1-slot and a 161-in-1 in my home office? ;)

     

    But this is a console thread, and SNK only made 3 of those (all prototypes excepted): the AES, the B&W NGP and the colour NGP :)

     

    Those AES<>MVS converters are rarer and more expensive than rocking horse poo. Latest gen excepted, the AES is 1 of the only 2 consoles I've never owned at any time. The other one was a PCE LT, as that's always been mega-£££s.

     

    It won't be difficult to make your own converter, so save some dosh.

     

    My neogeo setup is not as impressive as yours; all my arcade gaming is done via MAME. But my PC and sound equipment is awesome (had to add some willy waving also!)


  6. It's not the easiest thing, random capital letters, no sentences, comma's scattered at random without any spaces after them, two words combined into one in places...

     

    People don't come on here to write out essays to be approved by an English tutor, they come here to talk about various topics. It is not a formal place, and you don't have a right to comment on other peoples spelling and grammar.

     

    Especially considering a few people might have learning difficulties, or dyslexia; comments about spelling etc should be kept to ones self.

     

    Really it is trolling, and should be an offense, with a minimum banning of a week.


  7. Hi this is quite a random question on here it's about windows 95 and i'm not sure about the question myself..

     

    I can barely remember it tbh I was only young and could barley use a computer in 95 but I think I can remember a warning message on there that said something about it saying ''llegal operation'' or something like that I was just wondering if anyone knows what I am on about and what it meant back then lol?

     

    Oh man that takes me back a bit. Seemed to be the standard error message for most things that went wrong. About as helpful as modern error messages, that still do not tell you anything useful.


  8. Looking at the list of available things especially the "Intensive Jobcentre support" part; job centre staff are not trained enough for doing this sort of thing, they barley have any customer service skills.

     

    To top it off, job centres are not nice environments to go to every day, or spend a long time in. The staff are rude, front line staff are all security guards, and a cloud of contempt hangs over the places.

     

    What they should have done is outsource the third one. There are places better equipped with trained staff.


  9. You don't. Seriously. It's a PoS. There's a few more. Jaguar and VirtualBoy, to name a couple.

     

    @ DeathAxe: not to nitpick, but did you mean NeoGeo AES? We're on about consoles, my good man ;)

     

    With the neogeo it is a case of potato, poh-tato as the MVS and AES where pretty much the same (and used the same rom data for most games). You can also use MVS carts on an AES via adapter and so on.

     

    And you can consoleise the MVS. :-)


  10. I like to have a large selection of music on mine, as well as storing some files. I don't want to pay data charges for something I can store locally.

     

    I use some cloud on the PC for random items, but nothing of importance, I don't trust America's data policies. (In fact I don't trust ours either).
