Why is it funny? You aren't even in a position to be laughing at it seeing as yo don't even know what it's called.

TBH its one of the most advanced pieces of technology we as humans have ever built - to expect it to work perfectly first time is stupid.

I've taken valuable information from this thread. 'the end of the world machine' won't work for 5 years as it's dead complex.

Surely they just unplug it at the wall and give all the plugs a quick blow? That's all i do with gadgets and it usually works.

I dont want to confuse them with anything too technical Andy, they are only the leading scientists in this field and not CS members after all.

Whilst you're at it you can also tell them Phi thinks all their foreign private investors should have gave the money to the British government rather than paying for the Hadron Collider out their own pockets
