If you don't live in a skip or a Third World country and so have access to domestic electricity, of course it is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HK Hibee Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 We are only 2 months into 2022 and already we have: - Russia invading Ukraine - The HK government making an almighty f*ck up of dealing with Omicron (making the Uk government look uber-competent in comparison) But I will remember this year for being when phones v watches was a thing 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coprolite Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 I used to have a casio G shock that was waterproof to 400m. What's the point of that? I'd have imploded well before that. Still, it looked proper hard compared to the Swatches worn by my peers. I don't wear a watch anymore but i do carry a fiver which does the same job. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have imploded well before that. You'd have felt a right tit if you dropped your inferior quality watch off your yacht on a 399m deep stretch of the ocean, only to have your diving team bring it back to the surface and discover that the pressure had fucked it. Obviously you were using your noodle when you made that purchase. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only problem is, I've got several different USB sticks on my desk* that don't have a USB symbol on them. Also, if you're plugging them in at the back, the ports are sideways. I know which way "up" would be in that situation, but most people wouldn't. Now, let's go further back to the Eighties and discuss the pros and cons of RS-232 DB9/25 connectors! Spoiler *no, none of them contain incriminating material. That's what the cloud is for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 (edited) In reading the last few pages of this thread, definitely, what we need in Scotland is to see Willie Collum in charge of a match with an iPhone gaffer-taped to each wrist.
