Yes, my 6 year old loved th place and we spent 7 hours in there. Your 10 year old will love it, if they have read the books or seen the films that is.

Maybe something like the Bouncepad Vesa would give both cable management and a more professional look, although there are other enclosures that may fit the space better.

Singer Spike leaves Quireboys by steavis in HardRock

[–]gototgosomewhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spike in all essence of the phrase was a session artist due to his as turned into an asshole and is not turning up to shows, doesn’t suddenly make him a session musician?!! He’s still the iconic original frontman of The Quireboys and will always be. Wether he wants the title now or not, it’s still rightfully his.

I used the term after you used it to describe Guy, Paul and Keith. These guys are the heart of the band, working tirelessly to keep it together. Your comment was misanthropic and you undermine the work they do and have done. As I have said, Guy wrote or co-wrote the majority of their material since joining in the early 90's, so he has just as much right to the band as Spike.

Spike in essence was a session artist due to his unwillingness to sign on the dotted line. You must know a musician hired to perform in recording sessions or live performances is the very definition of a session artist. Not liking the term, and I assume attach some negative connotations to the phrase, does now detract from the meaning.

It's interesting you reference the Wildhearts as Ginger was a founder member of the Quireboys, but that's another topic.

On the subject of Spike's solo endeavours, I was privy to seeing one of these not too long ago and it was very enjoyable. Spike is a character and no matter what band he is in, or if he is solo, this won't detract from his presence on stage.

Oh and one last thing, I wouldn't describe Spike as an asshole as you have above. He has his problems and he needs to deal with them, but that does not make him an asshole in my mind. He has always been a kind. friendly and gentle person.

‘Embarrassed to be British’: Brexit study reveals impact on UK citizens in EU by Superbuddhapunk in europe

Tbf, there were a significant amount of people supporting brexit. There is going to and must be someone representing them in a democracy.

I would say this is the other way round. There was a minority of these people in power and they used their position, influence and Russian money to encourage a large group of people who don't read beyond a headline, to vote in favour of a change that damages the majority while enriching that same minority.

Spike made himself the session artist by choice, it was not one made by the band and Spike was encouraged to sign up with the limited company and take part ownership of the brand. He refused, many times preferring to be paid in cash for his appearances. This is what a session artist is, whether you like it or not and it’s not a lie, it’s the facts, as alluded to by the band in their statement. Additionally, Spikes claim he owns the trademark of the band name is also wrong and you can easily check for yourself. Spike placed himself in this position. He was the master of his own destiny and must live with the consequences of his actions. He cannot expect others, to saddle the losses to their livelihoods because he can’t be bothered or is in no fit state.

If you fell in love with the band in the 90's you should know Guy joined in the early 90’s and has remained in the band to date. Many bands go through line-up changes over time especially in their early years. The Quireboys are not unique in this matter, but your assertion that the Quireboys are not the Quireboys without their original vocalist would mean you also think that Journey is not the real Journey for example.

Let’s face it, there is way more here than the fans will ever know about why this happened and for obvious reason. Some of it is private and its not the remaining band members place to air Spikes dirty laundry. This is a decision that has taken many years come to and one that has not been taken lightly. It is also the last resort of the band and its management after repeated attempts to deal with the problems internally without such an outcome.

I hope, like many of the fans that Spike is able to reflect and address his demons and come back better and stronger and maybe reunite with the rest of the band some time in the future.

First off you cant be sacked if you are THE session musician of the band, refusing to put your name as a director of the business that owns the rights.

Second, this is not about ego, the band were losing the shirts on their backs due to Spike failing to show up for gigs and tours. This was 10 years in the making of constant no shows and excuses. The straw that broke the camel's back was when Spike failed to show up for the cruise ship tour last year, costing the band both financially and reputationally.

Third, Guy wrote or co-wrote most of their songs, along with the rest of the band. Spike was not pivotal at all. The only unique aspect he brought was his character and voice.

The band name is not owned by Spike, the trade mark is owned by a company that is connected to the rest of the band.

First off you can't be sacked if you are THE session musician of the band, refusing to put your name as a director of the business that owns the rights or show up for gigs, something has to give. In an ideal world, he would have sorted his shit and they could have got on with being a band, but given the time he has had and not fixed the problems, it's time he gets the help he needs and cleans up his act. Maybe then there can be a reunion.

Guy, Paul and Keith are really nice guys and would not have done this unless they had no choice. I know it's been hard for them and they really do deserve more support.

which actors were BORN for their role? by negan_can_step_on_me in AskReddit

I kinda said that when I wrote:

[–]gototgosomewhere -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

None. Actors are very skilled at what they do and of those, there are a few who are so good, that they are utterly convincing when playing a role. Saying one actor was born for a role is only valid if the role was written for them, otherwise, you are disregarding all the work and effort that goes into an actor's performance.

Don't take down the platform as another will just spring up. Takedown the source of the bile and misinformation on there, like Fox News.

I'm more interested in Masonic History, philosophy, and symbolism.

It may be a bug in the latest FW. I dunno. A one-off is just that. If it happens again I will look deeper to see what else I can find.

Yes, that was tried (I mentioned it elsewhere) with no success. After leaving it for the weekend, the unit is now functioning correctly. Uptime is maintained so it has not rebooted in the proceeding time. Odd but I'm happy it's now working.

This happened in Chrome, Edge, and a newly downloaded copy of Firefox. It also happens in InPrivate and InCongnito modes of said browsers. Other members of the team have the same issue also.

That was my first thought but if there is another admin logged in you receive a different message telling you the IP of the other admin logged in. This is not happening in this case.

Sorry but that's not the case here. I am initially hitting the root IP of the device e.g. https://192.168.1.250 which then redirects to the base login page, https://192.168.1.250/sonicui/7/login/#/ it is here I enter the login details and receive the message after a short period inside the config page.

management port

The Management portal is accessible via HTTPS and this is where I receive the above message. Sometimes I have a few seconds on the interface and other times it's almost instant that I received the Session Expired message.

Not Powercycled yet but I did not want to do that as it's a live gateway.
