The Pi has landed…mine arrived today as well. Going to put Ubuntu on it and see how it performs…

It's a bleeding annoyingly noisy little so-and-so!

Oh good!: erm...
Philosophers have only interpreted the world - the point, however, is to change it. No it isn't ... maybe we should leave it alone for a while.

Once, just once my personal assistant in my last Education job, wrote in reply to an email from me typed 'wtf'. I was a bit surprised but maybe I'd been a tad pompous to her. She left when I retired and is now Anna's P.A. in the NHS.
But I feel this is an opportunity to say 'wtf' in response to the above post. (Again) I don't understand what you are saying Phil, except that you appear to need to say something/anything whenever I make a post.

It's a song by Halsey.

No therefore, your words just reminded me of a song.
Simples. (like me)

What I find almost interesting is why that song (which I admit to having never heard) was in Phil's collection of songs who's lyrics he can remember.
Whenever an honest man discovers that he's mistaken, he will either cease to be mistaken or he will cease to be honest.

My mind is full of things that I don't know, till something prompts it.
At the classic car club quiz on Thursday night, one question showed a man at a drawing board and his name sounded Italian. The question - what was his contribution to motor vehicles ?
At the very last second desmodromic valve gear popped into my head, and at the end of the round my answer was right.
It could have been a lucky guess though.

That description makes me think Taglioni but that's just me. Who was it?

That's the man, but according to Wiki he only developed it for Ducati, not pioneered it.
