Hey HTT[/member] What does your best mate at PCP make of this?

 

Back on, will be announced 3.00pm Friday Mexican time, Big Mike to buy pizza for the whole of Newcastle  :rolleyes:

 

Nice pizza or standard takeaway fair mate?

 

A Loki special all-round I’m hearing, Big Mike wants to celebrate big time one last time with the fans :thup:

 

My pizza game is solid.  If we're talking disgusting pizzas we need to speak to the master of the art.  Vieu[/member]

I have no idea how to stop a page loading.

 

 

As soon as the page starts opening, the very 'second' it has started, click on "Esc" at the top left of your keyboard, if you are using a standard keyboard.

 

There may be another way to do it, but that's what I do. It works every time, but you have to be QUICK !!

 

And what do you do if you're on your phone. [emoji38]

 

If you refresh the page, as soon as it starts to load the circle with arrow changes to an x, quickly press it and it works.

 

Genuinely impressed with that tip, that is a proper life hack ?

Protip: if you stop the page from loading before the paywall appears, you can read it for free ?

Actually, I'd say it's a hack. As in, you're circumventing protection to gain unauthorised access to something you should not have access to otherwise. A simple hack, mind, but very effective :thup:

More a loophole i'd say.

Very subdued reaction in the media about this, wasn't much a story in the Times beyond reporting it had happened, and didn't see much on Sky Sports News either. Seems like the rest of the country is proper pissed off tbh.

Also if you use Firefox, a lot of paywalls can be circumvented by just pressing the "reader view" button. It removes media like images so not as good as the previous method but sometimes works where that doesn't

 

If you're really desperate, you can also try right-clicking > view source

A nerdvert who I met on a work conference once told me a hack for how to get pay per view porn channels for free on a hotel telly. This was before smart phones and wi-fi so getting your hands on smut at short notice was tricky and it was risky adding hotel grot films to the bill as it needed to be submitted to company expenses.

 

Potentially the best life hack I've ever had.

A friend of mine is asking how you do/did that.......

 

Tell your friend that they should put the telly on the channel immediately before the one that shows smut. Then remove aerial from back of telly. Flick up to smut channel, then down to pre-smut channel 5 times and then leave on smut channel, then re-insert aerial and smut will appear for free.

 

It worked in loads of hotels but it's from 20 years ago so tech might have changed since then.

I'll pass it on.... I try to avoid that kind of thing in hotels myself now from the time I was in Hong Kong and the missus went in the shower. Thought I would make the most of the free time by having a sneaky blast through the filth channels....unbeknown to me at the time, the shower had a speaker in it, linked through from the TV.

Money Mike has changed his style and tact completely recently. He went from just taking the piss, to now coming across as he knows something and more serious (like it is now someone else tweeting).
