    my new camera

    it can only do 20 in it's "high res" mode... i don't want to see what the low res mode is like the one flavio mentioned said it can get 100 in it's high-res mode, which is much more reasonable. still, 20 ain't too bad considering. it means you gotta be selective about what you take... i...

    okay... i'll reply for steve - i'm sure he'll correct me if i'm wrong :) the basic way DNS works is that it's a hireachical system. to find, say, the address of www.otcentral.com, you first find out who's got the details for ".com" domains, then ask them who's got the details for...

    So I let my teenage sis drive me to work ...

    heh, interesting the difference in accepted ages for stuff in different places... you have to be 17 to start learning to drive here, and 18 to drink... i can't imagine a world where you have to be 21 to drink out... and the thought of 15 year olds behind the wheels of cars scares the shit out...

    my new camera

    I'm not sure what it is... it says "Precision" on it, but no googling has left me any the wiser about it's origins... I /think/ it came from the gadget shop, so i went there looking today. seems like they've replaced the one i got with those SiPix ones for £40, which is what i think my one...

    my new camera

    Yes, those are the pics unadulterated and straight off the camera. Tried again tonight in the pub... lower light, results not so good... http://www.nambit.net/manchester/misc/index.html so, it looks like trying to use it in low light conditions isn't an overly good idea, but daytime it...

    this "it's all about how long your ISP caches the DNS" for business sounds... well... fishy at least, and like crap at worst... Each DNS record has a field called TTL which says how long ISPs are allowed to cache the response for, so the time taken is at most the time specified by the owner...

    even that's crap during the summer holidays... ten weeks where the entire university population is dumped into the job market... unless you can type 70wpm you don't even get on the list of potentials :( at least a couple of years ago there was dot-com fever, and it was easy to get...

    How do you pay for stuff?

    cash, or card... depends. i guess most stuff over a fiver i'll probably use plastic, unless it's at a club in which case cash exclusively... if i pay for it on card, it means i don't have to go to a cash machine for longer

    PayPal

    i've found it useful a couple of times when i've wanted to get some cash from internet-type people with thier credit cards... and now i've got one it does make paying for stuff on sites that use paypal (like this one) very easy... for merchant types it works pretty well, the charges aren't...
