Indeed I have, and I can never resist the temptation to abuse the name and surname fields in that case.
Which is exactly why my account name in some cases is "Titty Fuckface"! I wonder how many Titty Fuckfaces there are on Skype/Windows Live etc.?
Moore's Law is a totally different thing. It's not really a law either, just some soundbite the then CEO of Intel decided to call a "Law" at the time.
But regarding the NSA, if it was the American government we were talking about I'd be thinking differently. But C'Mon! this is the IRISH government we're talking about, the same government that accidentally legalized a whole slew of drugs recently for a while. I think we're quite safe.
I'm mainly referring to the thread on the Sexual Offences law, people being afraid to leave reviews etc. not singling out anyone.

We are free here from constant patronizing, which is so badly received (in UK mainly), and from every-day-life-bullying. I mean, it is not that UK/ROI are free from these in general, but it is being rude to act in that manner. In Poland and other Eastern European countries it is running in the blood, you are rude refusing to listen to 'good advices', or rejecting people, who trying to make you do something, you don't care at all of. Hence few posters girls in here, acting in that manner, especially towards each other and never getting, why some choose to ignore them (or not), which leads to so attractive fights. Please, don't ask me, who's names I am deliberately not mentioning. #wink
That was the communists' answer to the power of Catholic church.
This part is a mystery for me, I am more UK-tied and Irish affairs are completely strange for me. #total ignorance, sorry
#good topic for a lenghty night conversation LOL

Thanks a million for that, dear. I appreciate that you've taken your time to read and comment on my graphomania
I must say, I wouldn't mind a wee-assesment of my oral skills as well, if you are not fainthearted, obviously.
PS. I am not touting here, please, I am from NI (see 3th definition) http://www.urbandictionary.com/defin...t&defid=147250
As long ago as 1999 Germany insisted that you give your ID before you could get a sim. I remember the deal well. You show your passport and tell them your address. At that time, they would activate your sim on sight of a passport but then they would forward the papers to the local police who would then check your claimed address and if they thought that this was not correct, they would have your phone disconnected. Since then, they have tightened up. You need to get the form from the police, or in some parts the local council, before you get a working sim.
As has already been noted, it is the IMEI, not all phones have an IP address. The important point though is that it is the sim ID that is recorded and tracked. The phone ID is only noted as part if anti theft measures and there is no requirement for phone operators to store records of phones only of sim cards.

Plural of antidote is indeed antidotes.
Your English is quite polished already.
If in doubt for a plural in English, stick an "s"on the end of the words nearly always works.
Old plurals like radius--radii
are being superceded by modern radiuses for example.
Men , women, oxen are the plurals a newcomer (not yourself) to English needs to look out for.
And oxen crops up a lot in everyday conversation.
