Petitions. People who create them seem to be under the illusion that we live in a democracy.

When agencies lecture you about their anti-slave trade policy before assigning you 12 hour work shifts in a soulless factory with shitty working conditions The age of chivalry is gone; that of sophisters, economists, and calculators has succeeded, and the glory of Europe is extinguished forever.

Arsehole car drivers who refuse to use their Indicators to show other people where they are heading.

Was on my bike yesterday behind an Audi (No 1 car who don't use Indiactors other is BMW) The guy just turned out of nowhere and Yes I was a safe distance behind. Still pissed me off and He got a few seconds of the horn. Also they are loud.

Another 1 is Tailgating. Again on my bike. Lady in a bloody BMW lol 5 feet off my bike wheel in a 50mph zone. I started to slow down to 20 mph. She was not happy. I was laughing. She could not over take as too much traffic. I just turned rould and gave her a wave (lol) and just took off and left her there. Took her a while to catch up at some traffic lights. Gave her a hard stare again. Then the mandatory finger. ;)

Nice thing was a guy pulled into other lane asking me if I was ok. Said he had it all on video if I wanted it for the Police. I said I'm fine and had it on my camera. Sent to the police but they will do sod all. Never have.

There ends my Rant about idiotic car drivers. :P Comprehensive Account Security

They should be fined. After all I send the videos to the Police but get no results back as it falls under the Data Protection Act.....

All they have to say is " Justice was Served " Then I'd be happy knowing something was done. Comprehensive Account Security

Roadworks on motorways with mile after mile coned off but nothing seems to be happening. No visible holes, no evidence of anything being done, no machinery and no workers. Aaargh :@

That happens so often and yes, it's so annoying!

Right now I have a HUGE pet peeve.

My ageing computer.

For just over 2 years my system just resets out of the blue. It's a real pain as it could do it once per day, once per week or once per every few months. It could also reset several times per day. It only does it while playing RS.

I changed power supply for a bigger better 1. 500w to 800w +80. Still resets.

Repasted my GPU and CPU as the GPU was dry. No change.

I've added a New cooling fan for the cpu. I had a liquid cooler which I liked. Still resetting.

Now I've added 4 more coolling fans.

Runing fan software to get the fans going as the GPU fans do not come on until hitting 60c. They come on at 60c as I've checked.

The CPU at idle is 20c-30c rising to 50c while playing RS. CPU is i5 Sandy Bridge 2500. Around 10 years old.

GPU at idle is 36c rising to 65c+ GPU is Nvidia Gforce 1070ti. 6 years old.

Anyway the point of my Rant is I'm pissed off with the resetting out of the blue.

End of my Pet Peeve for the day. Comprehensive Account Security
