  1. Yeah, changed after my first year, So I still get Metropolitan on my Degree. They changed it because apparently potential students abroad were were getting confused and thought all the Universities with Metropolitan in the name were somehow affiliated with one another, like a chain university. Also London Metropolitan Bought us out of it so they could use the abbreviation "LMU" as we had the rights for it. I heard it was somewhere in the region of £250million.
  2. As a Leeds Beckett Student (Bitter Rivals of the University of Leeds) I would usually laugh whole heartedly at the storm which could come from the article's author. But without reading the entire journal, I feel we aren't getting the full picture here, also the writer of the article hasn't actually quoted anything in context, only the titles of said sub-sections of the article. I won't judge until I read more.
  3. Hold on a second. This is a programme, like fraps, which records whatever is on your screen. We know that much. BUT. I really don't understand the paranoia. "Oh no! The NSA is recording my pc" but the file is saved directly to my hard drive? As far as I'm aware this function only serves to record to your own pc and not stream it live to another.
  4. He's Right, It is the Post PC Era. The only things we have received in the last year or so has been DDR4, nVidia Hairworks, Cheaper 4k Screens, Freesync, G-Sync, New Series of Graphics Cards, HBM Memory. It's not like having Dedicated Graphics Cards, Brand new peripherals released every week/month/year, constant advancements in processors and motherboards, customisability within our setup with cases, LED's, fans, water cooling and SSD's even matter. No Sarcasm intended.....
  5. maybe he should CHARGE THEM with wrongful imprisonment..... am I right?...... Guys?....... Guys!?.... Whatever.
  6. Well colour me Black with orange Tint, that is a thing of beauty sir.
  7. There is an ongoing post constantly updated by the OP, sorry mate, this is a repost. http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/393463-official-batman-arkham-knight-pc-sales-suspended-updated/
  8. Yeah you are way off here mate. As far as I'm aware, Linus doesn't always right up a list of parts he uses in his build logs so it would be a case of watching the video carefully.
  9. Now I just need better LED's to compliment the designs
  10. Same as Tu Go on o2, EE has gone Thermaltake on this right here.
  11. I'm already calling the authorities. This heathen shall be caught.
  12. So it's common knowledge that the Enthoo Pro Windowed version's Window picks up scratches more than a blind midget covered in tuna, in a cat shelter. For me this bothers me. A lot. But I don't have the money or the tools to go and cut out a nice big hole in the side panel and replace it with tempered glass. What I DO have is a family member who works in a Secondary School / College with a fairly decent sized Product Design facility. So today I went down and spoke to him about a potential idea on what to do while on a short budget to rid me of these horrible scratches or at least help me avert my gaze from it. He recommended to a laser etching on the polystyrene window so that my LED's attract the light and make it look pretty and nice. So here is the window and my pc in its current state: Window: (Sorry for the reflection of my gains) The PC Without Window: And here are the Designs. One for the large window Panel and one for the smaller window to the bottom right. The Reason the images are in Black and White and the sizes that they are is due to the device which will be used to etch onto the window recognises the black areas as areas needing to be etched and the sizes are the exact proportions of the 2 windows (27.7 cm W x 35.5 cm H Large Window / 11.3 cm W x 13 cm H for the small window, not including the Triangular area on top of the smaller box) It's going to the School Tomorrow to hopefully be done on the day and I'll post results once they're finished. Cheers, Blackler
  13. This will take fapping to a whole new level. Or has my mind been tainted to the point where all I think is "How could this device be used nefariously"
