Ta-ta PC for now.
22:35 Monday 26 Nov 07
And now it’s the turn of the PC. It died briefly a couple of weeks ago but that was probably a short in the main PSU (lots of dust, very small place) – it was thanks to Steve that I even looked there. Somehow it fixed itself. One of the fans – the CPU one I think – has been sounding odd. The graphics card fan had quietened after a good blast of air but there was a slow rhythmic hum which had got louder and the air coming out at the front had got warmer.
And it just died. No sound, no sparks, no big ‘ta-da!’, it just stopped. Fan stopped and a minute or so later the machine shut down. So far – this is an hour later – nothing has brought it back. So I’m hoping the fan was somehow responsible and that it can be repaired. That’s tomorrow’s task – find a repair man. (And no, the chances of me taking it to Muppet World are below zero.)

27th Update: It’s okay. Weird. And early next week it’s going to have 3 new fans/coolers (rear / cpu / gfx) fitted, the hum found and eliminated and I’ll probably ask him to check the boot options. But fixable it is, and affordable too. Turnaround will be a day apparently.

It’s an unbelivable spark is life, 3 main elements put togeather to create a basic living thriving directive being! I’m talking about fire of course.
You know every single thing on this planet designed by man, is a concept from nature itself, Sir Graham bell did not learn people to speak, he only extended his aim for people to communicate, Sir biro did not invent the pen, the pen invented his idea, and best of all, the human failure is the simple fact of SEE and DO.
Some clever Bastard determined we evolved from monkeys, tell me how could this be true if monkeys are still here?
We are investigators as a human species, and are finding it ever more easier to move forward. ASIMO Honda’s pod’s robot is a no no. How can we try to re – create man in his own image, when we have not got it right ourselves.
This life will be obliterated soon by powers unknown to man. We arn’t just investigators, we’re destroyers of what we are unaware off.
One line of advice….Just think for one moment. …Every single thought, feeling, emotion and movement you make, is made by a very small electronic charge. We are the robots of the past, and we survived once,,,will we again?

I am scared of future forthcomings, as the future is so predictable, a goverment whom takes so much away is only truly funding a military stance.
Money is always the root of all evil, and I remeber a day when we intercepted a German mesage that saved our country.
This country has no meaning anymore, the future is bleak, and we are all peasents beneath this govermential rule.
The inevitable is going to happen, the hackers need to put themselves out in one force now. as the goverment only have to click one button to search and destroy?
What puzzles me? Demochracy(spelt correctly) hmmmmm, anybody with a scientific background must create an emp device!
Am I goinig to post this.the hell I am! The geeks in the background, the peeps on drugs, the girls with kids , we all need to come togeather! 1 is always the survivor., survivors of our past have made this future.
There is 1 , they know whom they is. Pull the plug now before terorism takes control of this whole world. It only takes a hacker better than you, and well….. will someone be left to further our history? Yes……
