It's the 12th level of direness built in to the DeLorean DMC-12.

Apparently most reliability issues can be sorted by installing a Linux operating system.

Unfortunately wheels aren't currently supported in linux.

Actually most linux distros have a wheel.

Its the default name for the group that has permissions to access the root user account (and then wreck all sorts of havoc if you don't know what you're doing, or more usefully perform installs and updates etc. etc.).

There ends todays completely useless and irreverent Linux insight .

Bloody hell, me and Norton were having our lunch in Saas Fee taking a break from the lovely powder that no one else seems to be finding when Dolly texts Norton saying that the Shark has bought UKB. Our first thoughts were 'how ironic a fat weak chuffer has bought UKB'

Deffo. I think a short run of T shirts is required to celebrete the occasion, with "dire at every level" on the front

and

"ALL NEWUKB

Now with added ugly, primitive, juvenile and offensive"


on the back

It must be me but I think that every Chris Craggs guide book is dire at every level;:(sic) ugly, primitive, juvenile and offensive!

This is great news.  Don't know what you have planned for the site, but I would be more than happy to buy my kit via this site to ensure that this amazing community continues for years to come.  I just checked my profile and I have 'wasted' over 13 days of my life over the last 7 years on UKB. Can't wait to waste some more!

I'm so pleased! Thanks a lot guys. This site has been part of my life since they day I decided route climbing wasn't for me and whilst I don't spend a huge amount of time on here compared to some, it's somewhere I can always rely on for a laugh/the latest news/top videos/banter etc etc and my life would have been a lot sadder without it.

The 14 days, 6 hours and 39 minutes that I've spent on here in the last 6 years and 28 days have been totally worth it and we'll all ever be in your debt guys. Thanks again!
