Went on hols for a month and came backs to.. I was away enjoying many states in the USA and when I logged back into PV I found a bunch of guys messaging me thinking I'm a female from japan probs due to my trolling in one of the cybersex skype forums. I regret to inform any lads with a 14' cock or any cock in this case I'm not really interested. Unless you want to do drugs and play Fifa then maybe I'll think about it..
What hallucination reveals about our minds Due to hallucinating a bit myself I haven't watched this talk yet but Sounds interesting.

This is one reason I pay for a VPN. My data, and being able to do whatever I like whenever I like with it, is far to important to be left with the clowns in government.
Obesity as Expensive As Smoking A group of researchers that apparently have nothing better to do than ruin other peoples days has calculated that obesity is costing health services as much as smoking. If they spent their time doing something far more useful, like making delicious food with no calories I'd be excited.

12-year-old’s online life brings an abductor to her doorstep 12-year-old?s online life brings an abductor to her doorstep | Ars Technica
One of the worst parts for me was when she confided to someone that someone may be coming for her because she gave him the address but was too scared to tell a parent cos she wasn't allowed to be using kik and she thought she'd get in more trouble.
I always told my son that he should always tell me in cases where he may have done something stupid or find himself in any sort of trouble. We'll worry about him being safe and OK before I kick his arse for doing shit he was told not to.
Twitter After suffering duress I now use twitter, I'm not gonna try make you follow me by posting my handle here in a sort of pity thread but so far it interests me about as much as facebook but I'm only really following sites that've been suggested by twitter itself really. Any points or help on using and interesting people to follow would be much appreciated and I will give you flowers.
Why units are important when measuring anything… I made this error when writing down some notes for an electronics experiment; and thankfully as the error was on paper no harm occured; but its equally important for harm reduction with substances.
Earlier in the day I had been working with some LEDs. You need to put a resistor in the circuit for most power supplies; or too much electric current flows and the LED burns out.
LEDs do not use a great deal of current - 20 mA or 20 / 1000 (0.02 A). A glow lamp with the same light uses 200 mA (0.20 A).
It is easy to get confused by decimal points so LED current is usually written in miliamperes (1/1000A) in the same way a entire gram of most drugs would make you ill or put you in hospital so they are dispensed in miligrams (1/1000 g)
To work out the value of the resistor (or how much current flows in a circuit) you use Ohms law where V (voltage in VOLTS) = I (current in AMPS) x R (resistance in OHMS).
As you also have to take into account the voltage drop across the LED(s) and the main power supply voltage and may use more than one LED a more complex set of equations is used ( and most folk use the online calculators). The maths is still based on the same principles.
Later that evening; I was trying to work out calculations for some other equipment using 1.5 A of current and Ohms law. But I had got confused by the online calculators; and used 1500 in my calculations (still thinking in MA). So I had a circuit drawing 1 500 AMPS(!).
I thought "strange, the protective resistor would be that small it would be one tiny piece of copper wire!" then realised what I had done..
what would happen if I tried to draw 1500A from the mains?
As well as the incomer circuit breakers All 3 breakers in this would most likely trip ; 150 or more houses would go off supply and I expect I would be hearing a Police helicopter in the distance and seeing its searchlight and the streets would be swarming with old bill and UK Power Networks vans. It is very difficult to make mistakes like that without being traced and arrested and you can be charged with criminal negilgence and sued for the distress and financial losses to others in the street.
Making mistakes of powers of 10 with units for measuring substances can have similarly unpleasant consequences.
New found past time Basically if you've got an Android phone, the text message thing has a bar of three words at the top of it, if you rapidly tap in random places on it, it makes a text message that makes no sense but is pretty funny.
