That's not Rockall, it's Napoleon's Piano...

Micke is correct. use ipconfig to get the ip address if you don't know it. It needs to go in both simconnect.xml and the connection dialog. Details are all in the manual.

Chrome is nice; I like Chrome. I like Safari too. There's so little actual 64-bit stuff for Windows, despite it having been a 64-bit OS for, how many years? This is one place where I think MS really should take a leaf out of Apple's book and quickly deprecate older architectures.

Is that a resignation from the beta team? Or an offer to pay the $10K/year licence fee to google?

Look here: http://www.storagesearch.com/ssdmyths-endurance.html The worked example, using older tech, shows that writing the SSD continuously at full pelt using a 'rogue realtime data logger', it would take 51 years before it's trashed. It will certainly outlive your PC. My experience with conventional mechanical drives is that they typically fail after 3-4 years. Also, current gen RAID controllers allow TRIM with RAID 0. (big RAID arrays of SSDs are now commonplace in the movie industry, for direct recording of camera output, for one example)

Yes, you wold need a crossover cable (TX <--> RX instead of TX <--> TX ) if you were to plug directly from one to the other. Normally the crossover happens inside the hub/switch/router. I think there's a service running in Windows that handles IPv4 local address allocations in a DHCP-like way (unless you've disabled it), or you could use IPv6, which has a unique link-local address tied to the hardware.

Plan-G folder. Did you set up the correct ip address in the connection dialog and Simconnect.xml?

Yup If you listen to this month's hangarcast, I give a rundown of most of what's in it.

The film is not showing anywhere near me, unfortunately (it was only launched on limited release in the UK last week). All the cinemas are blocked up with MIB3, Snow White and Prometheus, and nothing interesting can get a look in...

Very nice, but why aren't you using v3?

Happy birthday Joe (late as ever )

Did you zap yourself? Maybe that's where the headache came from...

The "blind eye" is mostly so their faces don't appear on yoo choob....

I as so worried by the blood & gore dripping of the knife that I didn't look too hard at the ribs!

Saturday: Pulling ailerons off spitfire, to be de-riveted since the previous attempt at riveting had produced a warped trailing edge Sunday: Street party, various watchings of jubilee barges. Snow White & the Huntsman at the flicks Monday: Shopping. Bit of research, Prometheus at the flicks with some mates, Jubilee concert on the telly Tuesday: Walked into town & back (didn't get coffee as nowhere open). Watched flypast on TV, Added 1000 words to novel, wrote this.

Don't think I didn't know that, Alan

Now you're getting confused. Them's doggers...

Southern dogs are just better trained....

It's much more specific than that. Slaughtermen and slaughterhouses produce meat specifically for human consumption, whereas a knacker (I never heard of them being called knackermen) works in a Knacker's Yard, which is a rendering plant for producing glue, fertiliser and 'dog food' (i.e. not fit for human consumption), and typically using tired, old horses. Knacker's Yard is also used as a general reference to the last resting place for anything broken & worn out. Anything that ends up in the knacker's yard is, of course, knackered. (be thankful the Americans haven't got hold of the word

Is there a touch of "I am here"?

Looks truly awful.

You could always start a mountain goat formation stunt team.... (well, I'd pay to see it!)

You guys should really check this series out: http://thealmightyjohnsons.co.nz/ for more details (I just got the season 1 DVD this week, and it's a riot!)
