We'll see how it shakes out but I bet you can tweak the settings or switch away from Niagara to view social media apps or games if you want.

The AI thing is possible future partnerships that I'm wary of too but I hope would be opt in.

They're bringing back a lot of old features, but old or no I'm glad for it. 3.5mm jack, SD card slot, DND toggle, notification light are all pluses for me. Removable battery would be great but I understand the trade off against capacity.

I'm not even a huge fan of physical keyboards but the price point and other features, as well as being more reasonably sized meant I had to reserve this. If the camera performance is passable, it might even replace my main

Of course.

I was going to say USS Pegasus, get 'em Starfleet Security!

I agree with this chap from the Fabian society, not only do we need to tab billionaires more, we need additional measures. These could be things like an exit tax, closing loopholes on inheritance tax, etc. That said, at least the Greens are addressing the growing inequality in this country, what does this think tank say on that?!

Feels like temperatures are getting closer to seasonal averages at least; it was very mild through most of autumn

I never buy snacks or treats in my usual weekly shop - once in while I treat myself such as buying a box of stollen for Christmas... and even then I share with my family. Switching to unsalted/flavoured nuts and fruit after meals helped a lot.

Another thing is getting into the habit of intermittent fasting. At least three days a week, I only eat dinner in a 24hr period. This definitely isn't for everyone - I only happened to get back into it noticing I was putting on weight working from home through COVID however there are other versions like 16/8

Didn't know they branched out from doing cards

I'm sorry to hear about your situation.

Separate to contractual or redundancy factors, please update your CV now whilst your efforts and achievements are fresh in your mind. Yes, this could be seen as part of the LinkedIn thing but is also worth thinking about well before you've left.

Heck, if you have a manager or colleagues you respect, even get them to read it over; you'd be surprised how much little credit you can give yourself. Of course as part of this, ask about references too.

I'm fortunate enough that I have no issue covering essential expenses, so I've setup an automatic transfer after payday to move some of my wages to a savings account. In other words, I don't have to inconvenience myself at all to save

Exactly, I basically just use mine as a big monitor connected to my PC sat beneath it

Good job with the build, SFF PCs are trickier than standard ATX with the space constraints

I went with EndeavourOS too (for both my SFF PC and laptop) and was pleased by the amount of info/guides that had already been posted on their forums

 

I love most of AM's discog, there's no doubt he has a unique sound. But this track is something else, those buzzsaw synths get me every time

 

Some classic dubby vibes to go along with the hot weather here rn

 

One of my fave Tozzi tracks amongst many, this is layered so beautifully

 

A track that encapsulates techno for me, slowly building layer upon layer with a mind shattering resolution. One of my favourite live acts

 

One of my favourite artists of all time, rest in peace

 

I do try to avoid linking to the other place but just wanted to repost this here for those interested, credit to u/HyruleanKnight37.

Prefer AMD cards as I run Linux so definitely interested in getting a 9070XT Reaper for my living room PC build in the CH160. Currently, I've got my trusty old EVGA 1080ti black edition holding the fort but it's understandably struggling at 4k for some modern games. Sad that only the reference 7900XT/XTX seem to be compact enough at the high end!

 

With thanks to @itsAsin, think I prefer the original but it's certainly very interesting with the keys on top, almost a noir vibe at times

 

I feel a bit sheepish having to ask this, but has anyone successfully gotten their deck to display on a LG TV (C2 to be precise)? I have the official dock and that works for other devices like my laptop or surface pro but no dice with the deck itself.

I've tried various things like resetting the device, resetting the dock, changing the order of connection them all up but not managed to get anything to show it. I also checked that the HDMI cable I'm using works for up to 8k. A bit frustrating as one of the reasons I got the device was to be the living room PC/link to my gaming PC!
