It makes me sick how rich some of you people are, i asked for an ipod but i'm not getting one, the only thing im getting is 100 dollars to save up for an ipod.

I have no idea what I'll get, and I'm not overly worried. I'm more excited about getting two proper cooked meals, , having a nice relaxing break from gigging every other night and hoping that I get a chance to see my girlfriend!!!

But I am secretly hoping for a bottle of sheridans :) yumyum

Im asking for:

Mx1000 <-- Probably wont get.

Braun self-cleaning shaver <-- Will get definately.

New speakers, either Z5500 or Z5300e

Dell 1703FP <-- Will buy for myself if I can earn it before the 31st.

Logitech wireless controller and headset for Xbox. <-- will probably get.

I already got:

30" Toshiba Theatreview HDTV.

1 Year of HDTV digital cable.

I feel happy, but something is missing.

Two gift cards (Pizza Hut and Borders/Waldenbooks/Amazon.com)

A t-shirt

A collared shirt

$350 instead of the flat panel that got lost somewhere between here and massachusetts

For the first time my parents actually got more presents than my sister and I. I guess they deserve it though.

i'm looking forward ro stuffing my face. and having lots of rest for my bad legs.

but i'm also glad that the uk are going to use the millenium dome for something bloody good for one. over christmas it's getting used for the homless, they can learn stuff, get help and have a warm place to stay over the christmas period, im sure they also get some food. so at last something good is happening with it, even thou it would of been best to bulit a permanent building for the homeless with the money that went towards the dome

well I dont celebrate Christmas so I doubt I'll be getting any presents. :)

but who cares, the only two things I would somewhat want would be a Nintendo DS and a laptop (too expensive for something like a holiday anyway). And I'm not THAT crazy about the Nintendo DS.

Oh well. At least I've got my family.

Happy holidays, all.

I got to spend my Festivus(my xmas) with 14 of my closest friends and my Fiance(also got that for xmas ^_^)

We went out to eat the 14 of us to the olive garden and just had fun like we havent in a while. Its hard for us to all get together. One of my friends just recently purchased is 2004 WRX STI so taht was his gift. lol that ******. All in all i would say this is my best xmas ever, nothing like spending it with the people you care about. My family?!??!? what about them you say... Im not to sure where they are and it dun matter, my friends are my family. Merry Xmas everyone.

    • Not even an OLED display on the laptops. Also it seems that the laptop design isn't the same as the Surface Ultra model. Looks like bargain bin at high prices.
    • VirtualBox 7.2.10 by Razvan Serea VirtualBox is a powerful x86 and AMD64/Intel64 virtualization product for enterprise as well as home use. Targeted at server, desktop and embedded use, it is now the only professional-quality virtualization solution that is also Open Source Software. Presently, VirtualBox runs on Windows, Linux, macOS, and Solaris hosts and supports a large number of guest operating systems including but not limited to Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista, 7, 8, Windows 10 and Windows 11), DOS/Windows 3.x, Linux (2.4, 2.6, 3.x, 4.x, 5.x and 6.x), Solaris and OpenSolaris, OS/2, OpenBSD, NetBSD and FreeBSD. Some of the features of VirtualBox are: Modularity. VirtualBox has an extremely modular design with well-defined internal programming interfaces and a client/server design. This makes it easy to control it from several interfaces at once: for example, you can start a virtual machine in a typical virtual machine GUI and then control that machine from the command line, or possibly remotely. VirtualBox also comes with a full Software Development Kit: even though it is Open Source Software, you don't have to hack the source to write a new interface for VirtualBox. Virtual machine descriptions in XML. The configuration settings of virtual machines are stored entirely in XML and are independent of the local machines. Virtual machine definitions can therefore easily be ported to other computers.

    • OK, now ask yourself how are they going to enforce that law? By requiring every single adult to prove their age and provide their legal identity documents to an UNREGULATED 3rd party company that already has a long track record of multiple data breaches. Not to mention, parliament have voted AGAINST this ban, twice, and Starmer is going ahead anyway. So, where's the democracy here, because that looks like dictatorship to me. The solution here is parental responsibility, not government control. Run some public service announcements on TV and UK social media teaching parents how to setup parental controls. That's already been proven to actually work. But the, this is not and has NEVER been about keeping kids safe. It's about control and monitoring. Watching what you're doing online and controlling what you can see and what you can say.
    • Interesting read. I knew the adware was quite controversial at the time, however never realised to the point The Guardian wrote an article about Patchou. I just said no and enjoyed his creation, I’d probably be a lot more wary of something like that today though.
