    I haven’t used a single TV/receiver back in the day that worked first try. You’d have to twist that one port, pull the other one out slightly, or constantly try to push it upwards to get a good signal. Kids really don’t know how good they have it with HDMI.









  • This one is insane. The police response really does feel like it’s straight out of an action movie.

    On 7 November at 9:30 am, Operation Magician was under way, commanded by Detective Superintendent Jon Shatford of the Metropolitan Police. A total of two hundred officers were involved in the operation, of which forty were from the Specialist Firearms Command (SCO19). A further sixty armed Flying Squad officers were stationed around the Thames, and twenty on the river itself to hamper any escape attempts. Surveillance officers were disguised as Dome employees. The Millennium Dome’s CCTV room was used by the police as a control room.
