    Much as I disprove of the whole 'social media' thing, I don't think it is really any different to when I was younger and we had famous people on the TV and in magazines.

    As for people's ages, I...

    I can't imagine why anyone would want to have a modern console/computer on an RF output, unless they had a particular TV set that they really like.

    Anyway, for what its worth, I've used a mid...

    If the main site doesn't get updated much, would it be better to make everything into static pages, that way, there are no security issues and no old software to maintain. The old (early 2000s) site...

    Does anyone here use DaVinci Resolve for video editing?

    I've wanted to give it a go for some time but the Linux version wouldn't work properly on my old graphics card. I'm pleased to say that it...

    I now have a copy of Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC. Hopefully no Store or any other crap on there :). I haven't allowed it on the internet yet though.

    USB 3 Issues in Linux

    My Shuttle PC has standard USB 2 ports, some blue USB 3 ports on the front, and some red USB 3.1 ports on the back.

    The 3.1 ports seem to work fine, but the 3.0 ports don't. At least when running...

    Music View Post

    I just got a used U2410 on eBay for about £45. Turns out to have a slight blemish on it but its only noticeable on really dark screens. Not bad for the price, given how much they were new. I've been...

    I always found it pretty much essential for Windows to have Internet Explorer installed by default; as without it it would be difficult to go and download Firefox/Opera :).

    Thanks, I'll try and disable it next time I boot it up. To be honest I didn't even realise it had M$ Store, but I suppose its a major part of Windows 10. I expect the reason my Virtual Machine...

    I finally downloaded the new Hirens image last night and copied it onto a USB flash drive.

    Windows 10 boot pretty quickly, and compared to regular Windows 10, it actually seems quite usable.

    My [early 1990s] LaserJet connects through Etherner to my switch and can be seen from anything connected to the network (either wired or wireless). My Canon inkjet is USB though.

    I did have a look on ebay and saw some second hand U2410s going cheap, so I might pick one up, or I might wait a bit and see about upgrading to something newer.

    Yup, the U2410. It served me well for 11 years. I had wondered about upgrading before but decided not to as it was still such a good monitor. Unfortunately the LCD panel itself got cracked in an...

    At least they aren't doing the 'rapid release' thing otherwise we'd be probably up to Windows 98 and beyond by now :).

    I guessed it was, but I hadn't used it in a long time. I did make use of it a few times years ago though.
