    TV interference -

    Does it happen only during bad weather? The old "snow" problem isn't present on modern TVs. It was caused by RF interference from electrical devices adding to the received signal from Winter Hill. Because your TV was analogue, it didn't interpret or decode what it was receiving, it just...

    I wonder if there's any way to stop it spamming the "install tapatalk" message on every mobile visit...

    Halal butcher?

    No, I mean any sort of meat that I usually eat. I'd have thought that anyone who eats halal meat does so for religious reasons (what other reason could there be?). Therefore any meat not prepared in this way would be classed as tainted to someone with those beliefs. I'm happy to be corrected if...

    Halal butcher?

    BTW thanks, everyone, for the replies. I'll try Tesco in Great Harwood later.

    Halal butcher?

    I don't know about liquorice and blackcurrant sweets - I thought they were just boiled sugar - but a lot of confectionery contains gelatin and other animal derivatives. I think that anyone who can only eat halal meat probably can only eat halal derivatives too. Someone at work was halfway...

    Do you wear one and if so why?

    Do you really think that the people who went to war one hundred years ago were thinking about the business and political environment we find ourselves in today? Interesting. I always thought they were protecting their loved ones from the relentless march of a foreign power that was happening...

    Problem with "Back Arrow"

    Alternatively, if you ate using a mouse with a wheel between the buttons, pressing the wheel as if it's a button usually achieves the same effect.

    Problem with "Back Arrow"

    This happens when there's a "hidden" page between the page you're on and the one you want, such as an invisible site tracker. For example if you go to google and type "accyweb test" your first hit in the list should be the test forum. Click on it to get to the accyweb page, then click "back" or...

    Wi-fi settings on laptop - help needed

    ...and models without the switch are even easier to accidentally disable wifi. It's a keyboard button combination. At the bottom of the keyboard there's a button marked Fn - probably to the left of the spacebar. On the function keys, there is one with a wifi icon on it (usually F3). All she...

    Should the TV License be scrapped?

    I worded it badly. I should have put "It's no wonder people like RainbowSix think the system can be cheated." In post 35 you said you were going to watch TV online through a VPN. There's no reason to do that unless you're wanting to hide your identity. It's not unreasonable for us to think that...

    Should the TV License be scrapped?

    You're in the position where historically you'd maybe record a Top Gear on tape because you were (say) out on business, and that would need a licence. Yet nowadays, you can watch the same program a few hours after it's broadcast, on catch up over your internet connection and you don't need a...

    Should the TV License be scrapped?

    I haven't mentioned catch up TV anywhere. You taking a live TV broadcast, offsetting it by 5mins, and then watching the result is not "catch up". Nor is recording "Bake Off" on tape and then watching it at a later date. So you keep saying - but you never actually get as far as providing a...

    Should the TV License be scrapped?

    Well if I was defining it - it would be defined as: An analogue or digital audio visual feed which is produced from the same source as a UHF broadcast. That means that any of the channels broadcast to be received by a TV, any recordings (digital or analogue) made of the same, any streams...
