Did anyone else watch this last week? It was absolutely hilarious. It's available free on 4oD for anyone who missed it. I just watched it again and I was in fits of laughter! It's on again tomorrow (Thursdays) at 22:30 on E4.

That guy can put on some excellent voices!

Need to check this out, you guys talking about the pilot episode yeah?

I just watched episode 2. I thought all of it was funny except the mouse.

The prankee knew it was a wind up.... which ruins it.

As long as it varies characters etc.. I can see this running for a few series.

The worst they (he) could do is milk the characters too much and they become "trendy" to copy, and everyone in the office is going "Bu BeDuh"...

Does my head in when people copy the TV in order to pretend to be funny. "Am I bothered!?" :x

I went to the retail park today and I just couldn't get away from fonejacker! I was parked in front of "duhfs", went to "Puk World", saw some bargain "Doovde" in "Hoomv" and saw a nice "Luurg Lucde Tiv" in Currys.

I'm going to the market soon, what's the chances I'll go and bump into someone who sounds like Terry Tibbs?

Brilliant stuff! I'm surprised after all the excessive advertising it's only gonna last 6 episodes. I guess there is only so much you can do with the characters though.

Yeah they're hellishly funny, but the pressed and steamed one had me in fits of laughter.

Also the hotel one;

"If you don't come up here and spank me immediatley, I'm going to come down there and spank you."

"Spank me?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

"Because you deserve it."

"I deserve it?"

"Yes, and you'd like it to wouldn't you?"

:laugh:

    • Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print

      By sphbecker · Posted

      It depends on how technical of an answer you want. Does it stop manufacture drivers? Yes, the universal driver is the only thing that interfaces with the printer hardware. However, print support apps (PSAs) are the new way to provide that functionality you speak of, and they integrate directly into the print dialog box, so the user doesn't see any difference at all. This is nothing new...this has been the preferred way to do print drivers for almost 8 years! The only thing changing here is that the older printer model drivers of the past are being deprecated. I highly suspect that you yourself have installed a print support app described as a driver package from the manufacture's support page, had it work exactly as expected, without realizing it was using the universal IPP driver under the covers. For example, USB keyboards have all used the generic HID driver for just about as long as they have existed, but that doesn't stop manufacture "drivers" from enabling more features.

      Wow..... 1.8GB of RAM usage. That's just a bit more than MS Teams or VS Code uses.

      Manufacturers will be able to ship printer-specific functions through their support apps (their companion software, in other words). But no, drivers won't be needed from them anymore, only the universal one included with Windows. Think about this as printers all agreeing to a stardandized API for common functions, all talking the same language and supporting the most common functionality via that API, so only a single driver is needed to talk to them. Any additional functionality not handled by that driver will be provided by the companion software for the printer.
