My new home office. Three 24inch IPS displays in portrait mode. Absolutely love it :)

Nice setup - but how do you live with those huge bezels? I've been wanting to do a multi-monitor setup but I would need extremely thing bezels. Also, portrait mode is indeed awesome

If I did a lot of work where I needed windows that spanned multiple monitors, the bezels would definitely annoy me. There are times when I use photoshop where it is quite frustrating. However, 99% of the time, I have 3 or more windows open. I use WinSplit Revolution to quickly resize and move any given window to a specific monitor and to either take up one 1 full monitor or half of one. I program in Eclipse most of the time and I typically have it spanning two monitors, but there's a good area to split it up near the bezel.

Nah... those are the original bezel protectors, there is a lot of dust around this place so I just prefer to leave them... behind that screen is also my ps3, wii and a PSU of 450 watts which is in charge of anything that requires energy chargers and the car stereo, plenty enough power with it. Also.. all of the cables also lay behind the screen.

Disclaimer: My desk is actually more cleaner...

Where can I get this beezel protectors. I want to cover 2 monitors and CPU getting dusted.

Seriously?

That's why is just a bit..., I only have to detach the usb hub in order to take the whole laptop, no cable mess (of course network cable and ace adapter too, but that's as far as it goes).

Didn't see this one, but thing is, those bezel protectors came with the TV, from factory, I just didn't remove them because vents were already uncovered.

A bit more organized...

How do you find the R.A.T? I bought it but it does my head in, the cursor is so damn crazy just moves on its own. Picky about surfaces and generally just wasted so much time on it just to get a mouse to work normally. I got the 7.

My RAT 5 works fine, it has problems with dark surfaces, but since I have it on a wooden one there is no problem. I have it connected to an USB 3.0 hub (USPeed 7 ports) and no problem with moving on its own, I however had a LACIE 4 ports usb 3.0 hub, each time that I removed a peripheral the mouse would act on its own, I think it's because the mouse de-synchronizes itself when a conflict occurs on another ports of the hubs, however it recovers more or less after a minute.

Upgraded IPB and also testing the Amped Wireless!!! desktop tool.

and this is the messiest it's been in months.... been soooo busyyyyy

    • I and many others did not vote to get out of the E.u because of Putin or Farage, we did so for our own reasons. You don't have to tel me what my own did or did not do when it comes to the E.U. The EEC is or was the European Economic Community, a different beast to what the E.U is now.The EEC was a mainly about trading, the E.U have gone far beyond that and as I have said before, is now more of a United States of Europe. The U.K did not vote to join a United States of Europe. Anyway, they did not want us in there in the first place, Charles de Gaulle stopped us joining as he claimed we didn’t agree with the core ideas of integration. He was not wrong and that is why we voted out of the E.U when the time came. I was not old enough to vote the first time. My only regret is that we did not have the referendum years ago and got out years ago. If we rejoined, we would have to agree to join the Euro and no doubt Schengen, agree with freedom of movement, we have enough problem with people coming over here as it is. i have no problem with people coming over here if they work and don't try to push their way of life onto us. The E.U has a currency, freedom of movement, an anthem a flag, a parliament, well they are there, not sure if they do anything. Don't sound like something that is just for trading. Oh yeah, also wanted a euro Army. How many stupid rules have the E.U made that we had to follow? I doubt I will see the Uk rejoin the E.U, which suits me. Oh yeah, my partner is Polish, she came over here before Poland joined the E.U and she got fed up of people just coming over here with ease, while she had to struggle. She is now a British citizen and have been for a fair few years
    • Hello, Paul. Thanks for the editorial. It was interesting. I'm going research more into the app and its concept. Of course, if you know me at all, you know that I'd say your articles needs some editing! I a;ways do, don't I? For instance, the article occasionally mentions a concept before defining it, e.g., relays.
    • Screamer is 50% off on Steam, making it £24.99 here in the UK: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2814990/Screamer/ You might remember the series from the mid 90s / early 2000s, this new game is also by Milestone who created the older games.
    • U.S. partially reverses Anthropic AI ban for Mythos but keeps Fable 5 off the market by Karthik Mudaliar Anthropic says that the U.S. government has finally allowed it to restore Claude Mythos 5. But of course, there's a catch. The rollout is again for a limited set of U.S. organizations that operate and defend critical infrastructure. The company announced this in a post on X (formerly Twitter). This does not mean that Anthropic's latest frontier models are back to normal availability. Fable 5, which was a tuned version of Mythos 5 for public release, remains unavailable. Anthropic said that it is still working with the government to expand Mythos 5 access and make Fable 5 available again, but there's no timeline. Reports from Bloomberg and Reuters say that this decision actually came through a letter from the U.S. Commerce Department. According to Reuters, this would allow more than 100 companies and institutions access to Mythos 5. Reuters also reported that Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s letter removes the need for export licenses for approved companies’ non-US citizen employees, as well as Anthropic’s own non-US citizen employees, while restrictions remain for organizations outside the approved list. Anthropic isn't alone with this kind of controlled rollout. OpenAI's newest model family, GPT 5.6, was announced just yesterday, but isn't available for everyone yet. In its announcement, OpenAI also said that access to these models is initially limited to a select group of trusted partners and organizations, with broader access planned later this year. Both of these cases show that frontier AI launches are no longer just ordinary product releases and more like slow and vetted deployments shaped heavily by the U.S. government.
