The grand Tour - 18th November

[chopper]

To quote but a single paragraph of many:

Do not make unlicensed use of Intel's licensed names or logos, such as the Intel name or Intel Inside® Logo. Third-party use of the Intel name or Intel logos requires a license or written permission from Intel. If you are interested in obtaining a license to use an Intel mark or logo, contact your Intel marketing or sales representative, or your local Intel sales office.

Please, stop stealing.

I thought that with a username of "Intel" and using the Intel logo, he was actually posting official comment on behalf of Intel as one of their official representatives.

Now I see he was just passing off.

Also your parody argument is invalid in europe that's an American concept...

Mostly correct, except for The Copyright and Rights in Performances (Quotation and Parody) Regulations 2014 which makes the parody argument valid in Europe.

I believe it has something to do with the European Copyright Directive (pesky European Union).

(However, the parody argument is invalid on the use of the unchanged Intel logo. Writing 'Idiot Outside' under it would not render it changed, IMHO).

Haven't we all done it and not necessarily via the internet?

I may, or may not be guilty of none, some, or more of the following in the past

Tapes of music and ZX Spectrum games.
Copying of music articles to put into fanzines.
Taking tape players in to record live gigs.
Downloads of music mixes.
Taping mixes from radio.
Fake designer wear.
Fake high end watch.
Copying CDs.
Downloading / Watching torrents.
Watching pirate DVDs.
Reading gifted Kindle books from a friend.

A list surprisingly free of pornography..

Hmm...

I think 5 second clips are exempt?

[WTFH]

I think 5 second clips are exempt?

5? What are the other 4 seconds for?

I would pay for it if it meant I could watch it on my TV. But without shelling out for an internet TV, I don't think I can (there's a USB box apparently but my TV doesn't even have USB).
So torrents it is (burnt to DVD for watching on the big screen).
Apart from the "dead celebrities" I thought it worked quite well. Just like the good old days.

Mordac watching his TV.

Might be time for an upgrade.

Not sure if that's trolling or not but both Chromecast and Fire stick cost like £30 and require HDMI. You can also watch it on PC/Laptop connected to your TV. If you are happy to bay the sub £60-80, £0-30 get the means to watch it on your TV is not going to break the bank..


Anyhow, I think there were trying a bit too hard at times, like the celebrity deaths bit. And for 70 odd minutes show it had surprisingly low amount of content. "Test" of 3 super cars and a BMW M2.

I'm glad to see the boys again, but will keep my verdict until i have a chance to see some more episodes, so far it's more of the same old.

As for the Amazon prime subscription requirement to watch the show, if you are even remotely inclined to do internet shopping, you should get it anyway, especially if you live in the areas covered by same day deliveries, like most (all?) of London.

I love Prime for shopping but I'm not sure I really need it in 90% of cases and it's quite pricey now you have to pay for the video streaming etc. No same-day shipping here (other than Amazon Now for groceries) I suppose that would be something of a game-changer.

For people using Amazon for work purchases it must be a bit galling having to pay extra for stuff of no interest to the business. In fact how do you prove Amazon Prime is wholly for business use?
