    Is the WAM dead?

    He used to be on pfm too I think. I found him quite amusing.

    Is the WAM dead?

    Me too. The Wam was the first hi-fi forum I joined and I found some of the banter and various cliques a bit tedious and, after James sold it, found it overly complicated and virtually un-navigable. I drifted over here to pfm and have never looked back.

    Car thieves

    The trouble is almost everything internet related seems to be hackable, one way or another.

    Was it the infamous penis beaker thread, with all the links to Mumsnet? šŸ¤£

    Improving TV sound experiments.

    Spoof email from "Royal Mail"

    The thing is I received the email today (Sunday) although it refers to an attempted delivery yesterday (Saturday). I was in when the post was delivered on Saturday, and there are no Sunday deliveries round here.

    Spoof email from "Royal Mail"

    I've just received this email. I'm not expecting anything from Royal Mail. It's pretty obviously a scam and I won't be clicking on any of the links. Anyone else received anything similar? Order: 0811899569 š—„š—¼š˜†š—®š—¹ š— š—®š—¶š—¹ <[email protected]> 13:19 (1 hour ago)...

    Taiwan elections

    Slightly ironic really, given that the KMT (Kuomintang) were the rulers of China from 1927 to 1949. Invasion by the Japanese and the subsequent civil war lead to their fleeing to Taiwan. Democracy aside, it's arguable that they have as legitimate a claim to be the rulers of a united China as...
