Ooh a new avatar for Dirk. He should come back for that if nothing else!
[Off-topic] Dirk:
Chance are he's married and happy, which means he's getting laid every night. That's already better than my life!

Thanks. The thread i thought i'd seen him in recently was a necro. November was his last post. I know he was busy with work, perhaps he still is.

Dirk approves of interconnectivity. Everything should fit. A place for everything, and everything in it's place. Yin/Yang. Man/woman. Man/Beer. Man/Bed.

Hello Max! Good to see you mate.

Well haven't heard back from the PM yet. Hopefully his email will have been pinged so we'll see. Being in Milton Keynes he'll be under 4 inches of snow soon, as will i shortly after.

Any UK guys seen any yet? Where's home for you Max?

So you're North of MK, which means you should be getting some snow soon then. Consider yourself our early warning system. I want to be outside to see it start.

The skies here have a pregnant look about them after this mornings sun. I hope we get biblical amounts of the white stuff!

Been suffering from flu like illness before xmas, boxing day I felt great, then heavy cold the next day and had a cough since.

Not going into work tomorrow, heading down the walk in centre to see about getting some antibiotics.

[Off-topic] xaccers:
Snow was very pretty but we didn't have enough.

Although more than enough for someone in a MX5 to be unable to get up the road beside my house, she was flooring it so just wheel spinning and sliding all over the shop.

Luckily a nice chap in a van told her to pull over and gave her a lift up the road to her home :)

How much did you get?

Dexter, just checked out your flickr page and you've got some great ones too.

I really need to make some time to take my camera out, I've not done any proper photography for so long!

I spent 2 hours at the walk in centre this morning, the nurse said she couldn't hear any gurgling in my lungs but referred me to the doctor in case it was the start of the infection moving deeper.

Saw the doctor, agreed there was nothing in my lungs so it's a throat infection.

Now I know they don't like giving out antibiotics unless they're pretty sure there's a need, and fair enough, so you get told it's probably a virus and keep taking paracetamol or ibuprofen, but I wasn't expecting to be told a 6 week cough with raised temperature and thick plegm was likely an allergy and to go take an anti-histamine! :rolleyes:

So I'm at home feeling like death warmed up.
[Off-topic] Dirk:
You poor chap. Hope you get better soon!

Nice picture btw. Could have lived with some more snow myself. Had about the same as you though. Absolutely no drama getting to work this morning as the roads were all completely clear. Not that it stopped the guy in front of me from driving at 15mph as if they were still covered! :rolleyes:

So, i can hang up my Deer-Stalker and magnifying glass for a while. Off-topic detectives are always ready when needed though! (For a fee). Scary how easy it is to find out personal information about someone these days. The reason i don't have any Social Network accounts!

[Off-topic] xaccers:
Well if I go quiet again it's probably because I've been laid up in bed with the lurgy.

Went to the walk in centre at the hospital yesterday (had a cough since boxing day, last weekend it got much worse and I developed a fever), to be correctly diagnosed by the nurse as "it's not quite in your lungs but we may have caught it before it gets worse, I'll refer you to our doctor, you may get antibiotics or she might give you a steroid inhaler" to then be misdiagnosed by said doctor with "Your lungs are clear, it's your throat, a virus or an allergy, go and take an antihistamine"

Yup, I don't think she was a real doctor either.

Thankfully Danielle managed to get me an appointment with a proper doctor today, who said "It's in your lungs, have some antibiotics"

So I'm on 500mg of Amoxicillin 3 times a day.

I'm coughing less today but that could be because it's now in my lungs rather than at the top of my windpipe. Hopefully my torn chest muscles will get a chance to heal.

Blurgh.
[Off-topic] Dirk:
Throat, lungs...

..if it gets any lower you'll need a proctologist! :D

Good luck. I'm sure once the meds kick in you'll feel a whole lot better.

[Off-topic] Mr. Clown:
There you are, hope you get better.
[Off-topic] xaccers:
Well, I had two weeks of work, a 7 day course of amoxycilin and I'm still coughing a bit, although a heck of a lot less.

Danielle was just getting me to look up Monsturd on IMDB this evening (about 22:50) when the doorbell went.

I'd heard kids out in the road and what sounded like a shriek earlier, and there's been a couple of cases of Somalians barging into houses waving machetes, so we certainly weren't going to open the door. Especially as Danielle had thought she saw them duck around the side of the house.

Interestingly our first reaction was for me to grab my sword out of it's protective wrap and one of my ultra bright torches, and Danielle went and got her rather nasty looking skinning knife.

I tell you what, if someone ever does break in and ignores her thinking as a bloke I'm the greater threat, they're in for a very nasty shock!

As we didn't go out the kids scarpered.
[Off-topic] deliriousDroid:
What sort of sword do you have?
[Off-topic] xaccers:
They're just display pieces really (although Danielle has an authentic sabre though it really needs cleaning up).

This one's my favourite, wouldn't last in a fight against another blade, but it handles beautifully and you certainly wouldn't want to be hit by it.

This one, Excalibur, is definitely just for show, any contact with the blade sends shudders up and down it, it's also not that well weighted.

I was left this one by a friend who unfortunately had to leave the country. He'd sharpened it beforehand too!

It's nicely weighted, if a little bit blade heavy, so swinging it with a sweaty hand would probably see it going flying, but with the long hilt it's easy to change from a very flexible grip to something really solid.

It feels the sturdiest of the three.

So my wife has the NS4G and it has had intermittent problems with network connections since the day she purchased it. Full signal on both wifi and 3g...unable to connect to network. I imagine you're familiar with this problem.

If she swaps for another NS4G will the issue alleviate itself? Is there a rom out there that fixes this...currently running oICS. Any help or advice in getting a different phone from Sprint? It has been 6 months with this phone. They actually offered her a HTC Hero today...that's what got me enraged enough to get involved.

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] eww245:
Here it is, How to root the a101. This does work for the a100 also.

from adb or a terminal

/system/bin/cmdclient ec_micswitch '`echo ro.kernel.qemu=1 > /data/local.prop`'

Reboot adb shell to the a101 and you should have temp root.

su will have to pushed to /system/xbin and SuperUser.apk installed from the market.

That prop seems to stop haptic feedback, on the russian site it also mentions bluetooth also not working.

So remove local.prop after

rm /data/local.prop

[edit] Sorry, I guess this does not work on the a101 unless an a100 firmware is flashed.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] ZeroNull:
This is work in A101, if flashing A101 firmware from A100, execute command

/system/bin/cmdclient ec_micswitch '`echo 'ro.kernel.qemu=1' > /data/local.prop`'

and then flashing firmware A101 back. Then use adb for get root access.

http://4pda.ru/forum/dl/post/1448282/A10x_rooting.zip
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] NoSudo:
This is very interesting it looks it should work. In fact it looks like this little exploit it getting root on ICS(but nost latest version). a quick search revealed the following.

#This will determin if android is running inside an emulator

if ("1".equals(SystemProperties.get("ro.kernel.qemu")) {

// Emulator

}

/data/local.prop is loaded at boot and can set various system parameters.

Some vendor implementations have system parameters that allow root access - so being able to create /data/local.prop allows any user to set those system parameters. It would be more secure if the vendor created an empty /data/local.prop file with access permissions that would only allow write access to root.

So my guess is somehow redirecting the output from ro.kernel.qemu to the local.prop tricks android into granting superuser. Very cool. Too bad it looks like they patched the latest ICS
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] FloatingFatMan:
