Hope it all got sorted!

And merry xmas regardless all.

Being 21 Christmas is now no longer something I loose sleep over.. I love the whole thing tho just a time to enjoy urself with family and firends and get drunk...

I bought myself an N64 last week so the one thing I wanted is taken care of... GO RETRO!!!!

The only thing i wish for is a better year in 2005 and a girlfriend.... Not much to ask for I hope :unsure:

Merrry Christmas Neowinians

I leased a BMW 325xi (practically fully-loaded) for my mother. In 12 hours, she may very well have a heart attack upon seeing it - considering her current car is an 11 year old Japanese econobox. For all the crap I've put her through, it's the least I could do :)

Happy holidays to all!

i know what i'm pretty much getting.

dvds, bit of music and a new tft monitor.

i never knew about the tft monitor untill last week when my mum asked me to fix my bro draws. i check to see if the door to his cupboard still opened and it was their :)

but for my parents

mum = perfume, music, books, 2 ornamnets ( a budhi and them piggins)

dad = music, dvds, books, and a pen that is chunky he can use day to day

bro = dvds and clothes

sister = cloths, dvds, food mixer thing. pair of wellys to ware in the back garden cause it floods when raining

No one gets nothing, they just don't get products. You get another day to better your life, you still have a roof over your head, you will probably have a decent meal....if that's nothing then rest assured, there are people out there who would plead with their lives to have nothing.

    • Since they open sourced the calculator in Win 10/11 it is much better and can do a lot, I love it.
    • That's just silly imo. The lengths that man goes to just to avoid W11 is just nuts. Very, very few home users would do that. I will say this though, he is committed. Btw, I note on askwoody that Woody Leonhard passed away March, 2025 aged 73. His site was one of my favorites back in the day. Belated yes but RIP Woody.
    • Because of the EU (a good thing) newer android devices been getting 5 years worth of security patches. Except some Motorola which found the loop hole, and offer ZERO updates. In addition, Google for years have been making where it can patch some stuff by updating the core Google Play Store itself.  As echoed earlier,  you take the security risk in to your own hand beyond supported.
