• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler
    Owner, jackarmy.net

    Paying for Swans TV

    I am currently in Turkey (really!) and I am trying to purchase the international Swans TV season pass while I'm on a legit foreign IP address. My payment keeps failing. I am using a UK registered credit card which I've always used successfully to purchase Swans TV streams using foreign IP...

    Hacking Incidents

    Plus I suppose budgetary constraints sometimes dictate an outsourcing option is pursued and that means a more arms length control over things like IT security. But my initial reason for posting was more about how do these hackers actually do it? Is it simply that they are able to obtain one set...

    Hacking Incidents

    Interesting. I would assume that the introduction of two factor authorisation, the Incidence of hacking against individuals has reduced? Or is that naive? Can't corporates use 2FA in their systems?

    Hacking Incidents

    There have been several high profile attacks on corporate customer databases over recent years, the latest 2 being Qantas and Co-Op (I'm impacted by both) I'm no computer expert. I do watch YouTube videos by Perogi and Jim Browning so I have an understanding of how scammers operate. But what...

    Live Aid on Beeb 2

    Hey Dar, how about giving us a list of celebs who aren't CT fans then? Might be shorter 🤣

    Live Aid on Beeb 2

    Ah yes the quick Google search I did agrees with that. I certainly saw the 1973 one then as they were the support to Mott. But I was convinced "Killer Queen" had charted then as my mates and I knew that we wouldn't hear that one at the gig as the band couldn't reproduce the guitar overdubs at...

    Live Aid on Beeb 2

    Did Queen play the Brangwyn Hall twice then? I saw them supporting Mott the Hoople and it was just after "Killer Queen" had hit the charts. My old brain thought that was 1973 but I may be mistaken

    Live Aid on Beeb 2

    But none of us has ever tasted pure water, so it's a "No" from me! (Btw I have tasted Spectroscopic ethanol during my undergrad chemistry years)

    May I just say, classic JA thread that started with Live Aid and ended up debating the relative merits of different tap waters! I think we really the season to start now.......

    I was in Lyme Regis when Live Aid was on. I recall a beautiful summers day and everywhere I went I could hear the sounds of the event though everyone's open windows. Good times

    Live Aid on Beeb 2

    UK tap water has a variety of substances added to it and what those constituents are may vary by region depending on how it's is sourced and delivered "UK tap water typically contains a variety of minerals, metals, and other substances, both naturally occurring and added for treatment purposes...

    Seriously, down here in that there London the difference between tap and filtered water is really obvious

    Live Aid on Beeb 2

    Is your bathroom cold water off the main NJ or from the tank in the loft? Tanked water is deemed non potable but I don't know whether a filter changes that? (Genuine question btw, I have tanked water in my bathroom)

    Live Aid on Beeb 2

    Down in Swansea the water is naturally soft and if I still lived there I don't think I'd worry about filtering it. However, where I live the tap water is very hard. Unfiltered tap water leaves heavy scaling on taps, kettles and shower screens, and who knows what it does to the innards of the...

    Swans TV Early Bird

    In response to several posters.....I rarely have a problem with Swans TV so will stick with it. I've tried various iffy streams over the years and find that they work great one week then are gone the next. Life is too short, and I can't be a*sed to p*ss about with any more of them when Swans TV...
