WOEBOT (and joanofarctan): Like the new skin, but only one request: can we make it so that you can still tell which subforums (or should that be subforae?) have new posts from the main page? Also, while I'm at it joanofarctan, don't suppose you know how to fix the forum so that it the cusor...

Just been hanging out with a friend from Belfast and he told me. The IRA statement I guess I alwyas thought it would happen, but I was never sure I'd see it.

Just saw a news break saying that something, no one's sure whatexactly, has happened on the tube in London. I know there's a lot of Londoners on here, and I'm just hoping everyone's ok. :(

Over here nonseq said, in response to my characterising drug use as 'criminal but not immoral' with the following: Now it strikes me that this is primarilly a problem with drug laws, or with capitalist modes of production, not with drugs themselves, and that it treats a neutral thing as...

Warning it's long, but very, very interesting. All about the redevelopment of the Cuban sugar monoculture after the colapse of the Soviet bloc, and their take on organics and the like. http://harpers.org/TheCubaDiet.html

I know that there a number of people on here with postgraduate degrees. I submitted my MA for examination about a week and a half ago, and all of a sudden started feeling really anxious. I got ulcers i my mouth, was being kinda rude to my wife and was generally fairly stressed. I know that none...

I'm sure it makes me a terrible nerd, but this show might be the best television I have ever seen... Anyone know of jobs that get you to blow things up? I saw an ad for a pyrotechnicians licensce the other day. I might save up!

So I had a disaster with my old punk vinyl a while back, and I need some white paper inner sleeves. I was wondering where people get these? The inner sleeves themselves are cheapish, but the postage is a killer. Anyone got any suggestions? Obviously if some one knows where to go in Australia...

In the 'can we have a food forum' thread, Woebot said he thought we had enough forums. I completely agree. But I think part of the problem is that we have too many! Why don't we consolidate? Given that Film (for example) has about one thread a day, why not combine that with Art and Literature...

So a while back, we had a leak in the roof. It was near myr ecords, but I checked that they were ok, and they were. Or so I thought. Obviously I didn't check well, because half of my crate of old hardcore punk records is now more or less fucked. The covers were damp and mouldy and generally...

Hmmm? Which of you are Pacific Islanders Aussies, Kiwis or living down this way? This is one of the only boards I've even been on where I actually know some of the people. Maybe the Melbourne based of us should have a meet up/CD swap?

So on ABC's (Australian Broadcasting Corp) late night weekend video show 'RAGE' on Friday night they played the POW (different one to the one that was floating online a while back I think...) and Off 2 Work videos. Off 2 Work is still a pretty awful track, but interesting to see grime getting...

I've been listening to piles of UK Hip Hop lately. Mostly the Skinnyman and Klashnekoff albums, but a little of the rodney p as well, and I'll be getting the new roots manuva album as soon as I can afford it and it comes out over here. But I've been slightly surprised at how little discussion...

In the Pitchfork thread, no less an authority than Mr. Sama said the following. Now I like Lady Sov, not as a poseur test, but becasue I like her voice and her cheekieness. I'm just a casual follower of grime, and I know she didn't ome up through the pirate scene, but this seems a little...

http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/record-reviews/comp/679/run-the-road.shtml And they love it! Does this matter? I mean they give it a 9.1 but does anyone read pitchfork who wouldn't have heard of this anyway?

So I got up and felt like some pirate radio, but all I got on the rinse fm stream was static. Which is slightly strange... Anyone else had this problem?

So I've been using MP3s a lot more lately, especially for listening to mixes and the like, and also a little for internet radio. But my stereo and my computer are awkardly positioned to run cables from one to another. So I was thinkign that wireless might be a good solution. Has anyone got any...
