Commodore Apocalypse

Dang, not good.

I've been asked to prepare a Windows Media version, so as soon as that's ready, I'll post it here (if it's small enough). The original file was 5.9Gb!!!

A mate on my course did a hilarious spoof of Knight Rider for his final major project. So good I decided to put it up online for him to share it. Sadly the smallest I could get it for now is 166Mb (its 30 minutes long, DivX/3ivx), so if you're willing to download it I'd highly recommend it. It's wor...

Thanks, they seem to have sorted it...

My dad's PC has been infected with some kind of dialler software, which keeps trying to dial a premium rate number. He's tried a program called Ad-Aware, but didn't get any joy.

I have no idea - anybody offer a suggestion? What is it, and how can it be got rid of?

Oh don't get me wrong. It's just the wording of the press release, that I found funny.

There has also been so much random stuff coming out of Ironstone/Tulip it's hard to track down exactly what's going on...

I was in gadgetshop yesterday and saw the atari/namco ones.

One of our course lecturers put together a showreel of all our work. Thought I'd share it, it's pretty good actually... http://www.sleepingboy.co.uk/movies/showreel.avi (DivX) Be warned, it's about 26Mb at the moment. The original was over 200Mb, and for some reason my computer's being finnicky abou...

Interesting avatar - nice picture angle there Simon...

Yikes, sorry to hear that. :( Unfortunately, as said above, seems to be any industry that new fresh ideas are stifled, even at uni. One of my mates who graduated three years ago from our course had really good skills in director and flash, and always came up with some of the most weird but good stuf...

Somebody save me!

Being forced to sit through it right now, although the bottle of Stella's providing some comfort.

How long's it on for again??

Okay, may get interesting with the sex change lady....

Sore it's old news now, but I just couldn't resist...

Don't it look gorgeous.....

Don't listen to this more than once, you'll never get it out of your head!

Again bloody good going there...

Unfortunately the "compensation culture" takes some blame for the reason people won't help anymore. If you do, sometimes you can find yourself being dug into ever deeper holes, even by the person you helped.

I want to mention this... My dad went through a very similar phase about two or three years ago. His marriage to my stepmother was coming to an end for reasons that ironically weren't personal differences, and it came as a total shot out of the blue. Before this, though, he was getting really down b...

Thanks mate. Yeah, kinda glad, although the experience in life has been invaluable. Luckily there have been more ups than downs!!

It's this and this that I'm mainly going to miss!

Handed in my final ever piece of uni work today, five years after starting. Man it feels strange... and kinda empty.

Time to start getting myself known to the world...

Yeah, best of luck your end Moby!

Leamington Spa - god that brings back memories!!

Wow, thanks for the thoughts! 8) Also thanks for the tips on the suit below, I'm glad some people thought the same as me! :) In the end, I went dressed in the same suit I wore to the summer ball last week... http://homepage.mac.com/sleepingboy/showoff.jpg (come off it, you have to show off a pic lik...

I've just been getting everything ready for my interview on tues, and I'm a little bothered by all the conflicting views I'm getting over how to dress for the occasion. :roll: I was going to go in a suit, but some people are telling me that would be too much and I'd look "out of place" as ...

Cheers mate.

This is where all the advise you lot gave me three years ago will be put into good use!

Bugger, if that was a week later...

I've got a job interview in Manchester on the 11th May for a graphic design position (well, more experience). The real world is beckoning...

As soon as you're back in Eastbourne...
