Apparently when they opened a 3D printing shop in New York it took less than 30 minutes before some dude came in and wanted to scan and print his dick.

I can't believe the story of the headteacher reporting his pupil to the police. I saw the headline on Twitter - and assumed it was in the USA!

It is a disgusting infringement - worse though is his attempt to scare off Glasgow Uni, when his role is ensuring his pupil's success.

I think it says a lot about how compliant society has become.

I nearly went to Hampstead School. Back then, being considered an anarchist would have earned you a glowing report!

Interesting! I do get a pain in my head, but it only lasts a few seconds. I think it lasts longer for some people.

I get it. My daughter gets it.

Usually it’s just a fleeting sensation, lasting seconds or perhaps a minute. Very occasionally I get it for a bit longer. It’s the kind of thing that feels like it might trigger a migraine - so if I feel like I might be prone to a migraine I avoid cold drinks and ices.

I don't think I've ever had it either.
