It's stupidly disappointing.

Stick to Honey BBQ Old West beef jerky.

Tried that once, not really a fan. I love the original stuff though, shame stores only seem to have it in once in a blue moon. Doesn't help 1 in a few bags are also disgusting.

So happy I chose to back this. Looks to be stunning.

Biltong is great if you want a proper beefy flavour. But given that he went for bacon jerky, I presumed he was itching for something milder and sweeter.

Actually I only picked it up because I've never seen it before so I thought I'd give it a go. It's Friday after all, what better day to try and survive a bunch of unhealthy snacks during work. Shame it also seemed to be the day a bunch of people decided it'd be a good idea to do their entire grocery shopping at 8:40am and use the self service checkouts :I

MKV to MP4 conversion process chewed up the image quality big time. Anyone recommend a decent MKV-whatever converter?

If you have a command line based player like MPlayer you can always output the video with still frames with:
Code:
-vo png -ss hh:mm:ss -endpos number_of_seconds_you_want_to_record -nosub

Much better. MKV2VOB works brilliantly. I think I've got the look of my gifs down for the thread.

Ah, something to bear in mind for the future. Thank you.

Now to decide how many of these things I should have. 6x4.5mb might be pushing it... though I could always use a mixture of static and animated images.

Happy St David's day everybody.

It's my financial year end and just finished counting everything. Only £3k off my forecast turnover for the year, which is pretty damn good since I knew bugger all about the bead business when we started.

Now faced with the tricky little problem of stocktaking four-and-a-half thousand different products in volumes ranging from 1 to 50,000. That should be fun. Might take a while, but I'll be popping in here for light relief along the way.

Is your method literally 1by1 or have you yet devised a clever weight solution?

Fuck knows!

There's no easy way by weight, stone versus aluminium counts that out.

Probably going to have to count the big stuff, take volume of the small stuff and guess the middle-sized stuff. Tricky as hell.

Good man donkey, i love those spontaneous nights, I always used to go to the pub alone for this exact reason, but I havent done it in a while on account of me having to go out and say farewells to buddies and save up for the move n stuff

When my PC was ready I decided I should put it to the test and really get the most out of it.

So I played Hotline Miami

edit: Opened that bag of Bacon Jerky. It's not revolting, but it's not especially nice either. Stinks as well so I'm not sure if I want to leave this on my desk.

I need money before I can even consider a PC. Plus I'm waiting until next gen consoles are all out, paving the way for PC hardware to get BETTER and CHEAPER.

I would put together a PC but I don't have the room at the moment (for the desk not the PC). Stuck with a laptop at the moment.

The only massive paradigm shifts in terms of PC hardware will be 8-core CPUs. We already have GDDR5 in our graphics cards.

You may see a slight leap-frogging of PC power as a new arms race heats up, but likely a £400 PC built today will see you good for at least 5 years, so long as you're not a VERY HIGH SETTINGS AT 1080P SUPERSAMPLED AA ALL THE TIME kind of guy.

It was at the Fox & Hounds. If nothing happens, there's at least 2.75 a pint!


Pretty much. This what was on my mind pretty much the whole night...

She left her phone at chicken dude's place. It was fun reminding them about the events when they woke up. They'll probably meet up with me later on tonight in town. Dunno if that's a good thing or bad thing...

Er.. Early bird tickets usually last a couple of months I think - probably less for the weekend days.


Just booked my 4 tickets - £30 all in.
Its sad how excited I am for it.
