My darling mother, bless her liberal socks,
never quite caught up with the latest term for 'African-English'. When she was a pickney 'black' was bad so you said 'coloured' because 'they're often more of a brown, aren't they?' Then the Black Power movement fucked that up and she's been a bit stumped ever since.

Easy geeze.
Only on a very little way.

Most of my 'wow' technology is through Apple, and they're quite clever in the respect that they update previous models. Every single thing they produce has a one-year life cycle, more or less. They're clever that their updates are just low enough, combined with massive software improvements, that last year's top model will hold it's value the following year, and will have something 'new'.

It's every two-three years that they go to "if you like it, buy the latest, you'll love it", for example, it's been some time since the Nano had a real refresh, this year's Nano is a real increase in features, but for the last two years, it was only made slightly smaller. With the shuffle, they've gone backwards in design, last year's buttonless model was a mistake.

Apple TV is an entirely new take on things, so next year it'll come out with some new features, and in two-three years, it'll come out with something with a more 'wow' factor (apps? 3D? Games?.... nobody knows).

They also hold their value very well, I sold my 3GS for the price it cost to upgrade to a iPhone 4.

Thinking about technology. Think about it, the industries that are known to be 'open' (anyone can manufature) , such as 'PC's and 'Android Phones', are the ones where it seems that there is huge increases every 3 months, devalueing the previous top model. It'll happen with android-based tablets too, they won't hold their value.
(, Wed 1 Sep 2010, 20:56, Reply)

I'm totally cool - but mostly still sleepy from fighting and drinking all weekend

Yeah, post-festival lurgy
extras include buckets of phlegm and a lovely sexy raspy voice.

Oh wow cool like. That sounds fun. I drank 2 days out of my extended weekend and had to deal with Gallows fans, not monsters, but I can see the parallels ;)

I drank 3 nights. But I think mead is just good for you. As is Pimms, vodka, port, red wine, and whatever other shit people were passing round.

Fake fighting often makes for less injuries than festivals. Which one Reading or Leeds?
(, Wed 1 Sep 2010, 22:27, Reply)
PIMMS YES I LOVE PIMMS
Mead in the words of Neil Gaiman tastes of "drunken diabetic's piss".

I was working at Leeds, being a "friendly face of the festival" and not erally doing much apart from turning people who pretended to have one leg away from the disabled toilets.

It depends which mead you get
Moniak is the king of mead - it's much drier that the stuff you get in Christmas markets and it makes you giggley

I always fancy reading/leeds but it clashes with the biggest larp event of the year. Who was good?

Arcade Fire and Los Campesinos
Darwin Deez were a good new act (for me), to see the Libertines is probably quite impressive nowadays what with Smackhead Pete being a twat (still don't like them much), and Metronomy are excellent, as usual.

I avoided Blink (see below) and Asshole Rose.

Did you do it, or know anyone who did?

Nearly did it a few years back.
They wanted folk signing up to do 12 hour shifts, have immaculate clothes and perfect appearance at all times, not drink or smoke even on their time off, and travel to/from, camp and live on the site entirely at their own expense; all this for the minimum wage less a 30% agency fee. Oh, and you were expected to be front-line security too.

Despite all that, it was only four solid days of torrential rain in the week leading up to the event that led to me backing out in the end.

Bloody hell
We were Oxfam, though we weren't supposed to drink 5-6 hours before we went on shift no one really gave a fuck. We weren't paid though, but it was a good laugh.

My friends who worked security sounded like hell :(
