Drilling through steel with a 6mm bit on a hand drill isn't my idea of fun at all. It's on the bike, so I can't use the press drill.

Probably way toooo much fun...

Have you tried heating it first? That seems to work for the Wheeler Dealers.

That generally works for nuts, not bolts - it expands the metal so hot nuts get bigger and looser. Hot bolts get bigger and tighter.

I'd go with Dave Auld's or Davex86's suggestion. Joan Murt's suggestion is good unless the bolts are attached to something spinning. There is a danger of throwing the balance out.

"Site will be back shortly"
I assume it's the "take a week to replace our URL's with Uniform Resource Locators" one?
If so, then yes, I remember it well...

That's the one. Except it will take him a month 
It's weird you get to see the site will be back shortly message. I got that yesterday, but I was able to see that picture.

Well it was July 1998 - I'm allowed to forget a few details!

I'm seeing
"We are updating the site for you and will be back shortly. In the meantime, how about laughing at a comic or two on our sister site?"
which isn't amusing!

Strange, I got that yesterday on the Dilbert site, but I could see that picture.
I can't find another link to that strip, so here's what it says:
Pointy haired boss: I don't see why our web pages need URLs. Get rid of them. Did that make any sense at all?
Dilbert: Yes, it's brilliant. Give me a month and I'll replace our URLs with Uniform Resource Locators.
Pointy haired boss: Perfect.
It's classic

This is a simulated quantum computer based on webGL. It's going to be much slower than an actual quantum computer as it's simulated with non-quantum hardware. Anyway, it gives you an impression of how quantum computing might be done in the near future.

I thought I had read this somewhere before, but maybe just dreamt it up............oh, no I didn't, it is just a few posts down
Sadly on our corporate desktops it doesn't work due to the browser, just like the post below is blocked.

Try the 'https://' version.. It worked for me..

Https:// version of which one, the quantum one or the one below.
Don't see what difference making it https will make.
If the browser isn't capable of running it, it still wont work, and as for the access, just because it is https doesn't hide the target url. The corporoate web filtering still know where you are trying to get to.
So, even after trying both using https, to make sure I'm not talking poop, I can confirm, it is still the same. a) won't run, b) can't access.

https:// version of the quantum link
this one[^]
As for the browser I'm using is Google Chrome.
I tried it in firefox browser and got the following message:

Warning!
We strongly recommened to run Quantum Playground in Google Chrome.
Your graphics card does not seem to support WebGL[^].

and for IE(the version on my system is 6), you rather don't ask

Poor you!

Well such is corporate life dearies! 
What I didn't mention was, the OS is XP!
P.S. did it work in chrome for you?

Don't have chrome on this corpo box. Would need to RDP onto my personal VM on 'tinernet to escape the confinds of this machine.

That would be the 4th June, I'll have forgot by then. (p.s. what were we talking about again?  )

nevermind! We've already talked way off topic!

Yeah, it uses webGL which is definitely not fully supported by every system and browser combination.
