it says...

 1. Unsigned entries will be REJECTED

 

​so I don't think djb would qualify... :D

 

​ps dub sounds like an awe full amount of trouble to go through ...would have been easier to just ask the neighbour nicely for their wifi pass word and sponge off them from here hence. come on...not like your going to blow their downloads or anything are you.

 

what happened to neighbourly love...community spirit and sharing hehe

Sounds great djb.

 

It's fun drinking with dad when you're 19. Kind of 'I know that you know that we both know what we're doing...'

 

Now I thought I saw a rabbit hole round here? Where are Telecine and caddisgeek when you need them! :)

The real question is who paid for the drinks?

I think that we know the answer to that ; ) djb has more TTs to buy, he can't be wasting his funds on frivolity.

Pick up any chicks , or did they pick you up again ? 

 

Bad move taking geek , it's babies the chicks go gaga over , not 19 year old's

 

Good move taking geek , directional & moral compass

 

Next time piggyback off someone else's hotspot.

That's a good price.

My buy price for those is $98 + GST!

These look like a knock off of the ASUS models.

 

Edit:Just had another look, not quite....

 

If they perform as well, a good buy! hmm....there factory is in Shenzhen, China so who knows.

Chinese company, so figures there factory is there.
