I guess any ship sinking will bring unhappy memories to someone and certainly there were worse incidents during the Falklands war. Still, doesn't feel right to use a picture of a serious subject to illustrate a light-hearted point in an article.

I have a playlist named Xmas which selects tracks with "Xmas" in the Comments field. It was quick to set up and, when the season comes, is easy to include in sync profiles.

At the moment all I get is "No EyeTV found on the network." which is 100% inaccurate.

We are supposed to have free movement of goods & services between countries, IMHO Apple is already in breach of this.

I fly internationally several times a month. There is no consistency and no logic. Laptops in, laptops out; shoes on, shoes off; belts on, belts off; no liquids, liquids (in the Schengen zone). The most recent stupidity I have endured is that a plastic pen in my pocket must go through the machine.

The guys on the line are reveling in enforcing half-understood instructions from their bosses. The bosses are busy justifying their own existence by dreaming up new rules.

@mymaclife: nope, glad to be rid of them & their god-bothering ways.
