ATMs and Self Service Checkouts here in the UK still run on XP ... Oh dear

Not surprised. Very common. But makes you think though.

Yeah i mean they have patches to stop people hacking ATMs; there was a Horizon segment on it which showed older ATMs could be hacked easily for free money (literally)

 

But with the focus on cyber security right now why aren't the vendors of these application making them work on 10 or Windows 8 embedded (which is basically Windows 9)

I'd never watched Friends growing up; watching it on Netflix. I did't actually enjoy the show till around series 6. Favourite is Chandler followed by Monica

Here's a slightly perplexing image of a "light" tub of ice cream

I get it, very clever indeed. Nice choice in ice-cream flavor too ;-). Are you a 3 in 1 or a seasoned miner?

So this is how online games work nowadays:

 

'Recruiting for Porcupine Farm!'

 

'If I join, can I eat all the porcupine babies?'

 

'No, you can only eat the adults, the little ones aren't ready yet'

 

'But I only eat children'

 

'You can't, they have tiny bones, you'ld choke ...'

 

***YOU HAVE BEEN CHAT BANNED FOR 3 DAYS***

 

K. I was talking about animal babies, not human babies!
