Hey, we're the ones paying the license fee. ;)

 

Don't worry, Germans pay one, too. (plus internet fee, plus fee for copying stuff, plus a levy on printers, burners, copiers, blank media, complett pcs, and so on...)

 

If the BBC would put their content into bittorrent, they wouldn't have to pay for bandwith, and so wouldn't incur any extra cost at all. But no...that would actually work.

No, I mean we actually pay for these programs to be made. They're broadcast in other countries, but along with adverts to pay their costs. Revenue from those adverts is pumped back into the BBC to create more shows for us. It'd hardly benifit us if other countries got programs paid for by the british tax payer for free, sans adverts, and we got nothing back for them.

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!
