I need a record to be cleaned, I'd prefer to get it done professionally to be honest, rather than resort to the wood glue method. Does anyone know of any places in the North West of England (preferably around the Manchester or Liverpool area) that offer "pro" vinyl record cleaning solutions? I need a 7" done, primarily (I know some machines don't support 7" records). Anyone who has any recommendations, please recommend them at me! Thanks guise

I personally enjoy my privacy, and would like to know if the GCHQ has been spying on my activities. The more people that do this, the more pressure is put on GCHQ. Here's the link: https://www.privacyinternational.org/illegalspying

This thread is basically for all your successes, big and small. I'll start: just had one of those satisfying poops where it feels that all that had to get out, got out.

After the subject coming up in chatmm, Andihow of NYC is going to attempt to post a bagel to Bitroast in Melbourne, Oz. This will be documented in this thread. If anyone else wants to exchange snacks internationally they can do so here. I have some sample sized Marmite tubs and a bag of pork scratchings if anyone wants'em.

Surprised there's not been a topic about this on here yet (or if there has, I hold my head in shame and will lock the topic). But yesterday Peter Molyneux (of Populous, Black & White and Fable fame) released his free 'game'/social experiment/art piece 'Curiosity' For those that don't know it's a sort of anti minecraft where everyone is collectively picking at a giant cube one layer at a time (at the time of writing the last remaining cubes of the first layer still remain), until one final cube is left. The person that picks at the last cube will be the only person to see something (it hasn't been revealed what) and they can choose whether to share it or not. Here…

Hello fellow WATMMers. OK, I hope I'm not the only one in that precarious situation : I still have almost no idea about what to offer to my girlfriend on Valentine's Day. So here's a topic where we can share ideas and hopefully find the perfect gifts for our beloved ones (c'mon, I can't be the only IDM nerd having difficulties when it comes down to find gift ideas ...). The good point is that she doesn't want "serious" gifts, and she doesn't wear that much jewels. I'm running out of ideas tho. Help me watum pls

maybe v1.0 won't be that great, but consider how fast cell phones advance, and imagine this tech getting better at the same rate. http://bits.blogs.ny...s-by-years-end/ this is going to change things forever. imagine the possibilities. one thing i've always imagined doing with this kind of system is the idea of being able to "wear" virtual status overlays.

Andrew Weatherall's beard needs no introduction... Here is a very rare oportunity to own an equisite collectors item and a true iconic peice of bonafiedy >120bpm 'trappin's' associated with the artist and music. as seen on Vice Tv Not only is this a chance to own the beard, but it is also expected to have a steady revenue stream from appearances worldwide, obviously this is not going to be a stake in the artist, however the agent for the artist has insisted they are keeping the 'beard' on the books for events. Direct quote taken from facebook... "The beard is available for weddings and bar mitzvahs through www.spunoutagency.com" We are starting with a low pri…

I thought it might be enlightening to some of you if you knew in depth the costs associated with running this site and the forum software, as we ask for donations to help with the hosting, so you should know where the money goes (and not to PS3 games as been suggested - I wish!). So, let's break it down: Hosting (linode.com, VPS server) - 50USD/month The reason we're on linode vs some budget host like in the past (as some of you old-timers might recall, we had some nasty experiences with those "too good to be true" hosts that only charge less than 10 bucks a month for hosting. With web hosting, it's true - you get what you pay for. Now, in 90% of the cases, those bud…

So my friends you may have heard the northeast US is focked! Apparently it's the most read story on the BBC atm: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-30978320 You'll notice that the article highlights NY and Boston as major cities bracing for extreme weather - as Clan Dobalina live in Providence, a b-list hipster city situated between the two aforementioned metropolises we too are amongst the class of the focked: Anyone else getting ready for loads and loads of white stuff coming from all directions? Already a lock that my wife's school and kids daycare are cancelled and doubtful that my office will be open tomorrow, so prepping for a full day of family…

Posting from Tokyo airport. Fuckin' awesome wifi, totally free. This place rocks my socks off. Going to LAX soon. Will post from there (after my 14 hour flight - ughhhh), if I can even get wifi. Last time I was there I paid for it and it didn't work, and LAX is a terrible place to be. Probably my least favorite airport, and I'm stuck there for 7 hours. 7 FUCKING HOURS. The only airport I can think of that is worse is the one I went to in Malaybalay in the Philippines, but that doesn't really count since it's more like a broken down building with a road that resembles a runway than an airport. How about You WATMM? Good airports, bad airports? What are YOUR experiences???…

What I was wondering is, how much do you see yourself as being apart from other people, do you think you're better than others, and why? Do you find it difficult to get along with people and do you often think that they just don't understand things in the way that you do? I often feel unable to understand people, maybe the trouble is that I try to - it's a bit intrusive maybe? I was always led to believe I am intelligent but maybe I'm not as smart as I thought, how about you? Are you intelligent, and how do you know? Is it a good thing? A friend of mine often seems to mention 'social skills', what are they, and do you have good social skills? The notion of social …
