No, you win the "needs to be on that disgusting show Hoarders award. :x

Seriously man, does it still look like that ? That is not "un tidy" as you put it - that a mountain of garbage.

Wouldnt you feel better if you threw all of that away & started fresh ?

Organize it at least lol

@ Lqv2015, lol!! bed and computer in one using a crt monitor. There's nothing wrong with that, I just find it amusing how people find creative ways of setting up their workspace

6x Dell U2410 IPS Monitors, great for multitasking!

Running bottom 3 through a HD7970 and the top 3 through a HD6770 eyefinity 5 for the less gpu intensive stuff (remote desktops, office, web etc).

I bought an ASUS HD6670 for the express purpose of having it drive 3 monitors.

I cannot get it to show more than 2 displays at a time. What's the trick? All my monitors are connected via DVI.

One monitor must be connected by DisplayPort, you can get a DP to DVI converter to do this.

It's got a normal ATX PC PSU, a development GC board (bigger than a normal GC board) with various breakout boards, socketed IPL, a large scsi-like connector for the development PC, network debug port, 2 debug COMM ports, digital out, analogue out.

The motherboard underneth the GC board inside has things like RAM, connections to the internal hard drive, connections to the gamepad inputs, connections to a 7-segment display, etc.

So did you develop for GC or how did you get your hands on this?

Nice setup, but god terrible pic Spirit Dave. Makes my eyes want to bleed

haha ... yeah it's a good setup.

No it's not instagrammed, it was a terrible photo (I'm no photographer!) and so I threw a quick color alteration on it in Analog for Mac :D

But who cares about the photo quality ... it's how comfortable I am right now in my office :D

Why not.

AMD APU 3410MX @ 2.9 GHz xfire with Radeon 6750m @ 770 core & 970 mem.

Yes why not :)? But you should have thought about some cooler like this one: http://www.zalman.com/ENG/product/Product_Read.asp?idx=276 . I've got one like that myself, all copper= needs not that hard cooling like aluminium does ;).

    • For the purpose that it was built for, it’s a great machine. It’s okay to own multiple machines, it’s okay for machines to be different. If every computer was the same, they’d be boring af.
    • OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT's memory, making the system more capable, current, and scalable across long-term use. Memory allows ChatGPT to remember useful details about users, including their preferences, projects, and constraints. Instead of starting every conversation from scratch, ChatGPT can use this context to provide more relevant responses in future chats. OpenAI first launched saved memories in February 2024. That feature allowed users to explicitly ask ChatGPT to save information into its memory, such as travel plans or writing preferences. However, this system had limits because it depended heavily on users giving clear instructions to remember something. Additionally, saved memories could become stale over time. In April 2025, OpenAI expanded memory by allowing ChatGPT to reference past chat context outside the saved memories list. This was powered by a background process called “dreaming,” which automatically curates memories from chat history. This made ChatGPT better at learning from natural conversation without requiring users to manually save every detail. Today, OpenAI announced a more capable and compute-efficient memory architecture built on top of dreaming. This new system improves ChatGPT’s ability to carry forward useful context, follow user preferences, and remain accurate as time passes. According to OpenAI’s internal evaluations, the new system improves factual recall from 67.9% in 2025 to 82.8% in 2026. Preference adherence improves from 55.3% to 71.3%, while accuracy over time improves from 52.2% to 75.1%. The best part of this new system is a new memory summary page where users can review ChatGPT's memories. Users can even update details, correct information, or give instructions on what topics ChatGPT should bring up and when. This new, improved memory system is available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users in the US starting today. It will roll out to more countries, as well as Free and Go users, in the coming weeks.
    • I work for a video production company in Australia. The camera operators shoot footage and then pass the SD card over to the editors. Much easier than handing over the entire camera. Plus, on a busy day you can hand off the SD card and then pop another in for the next shoot. Or, you might have used multiple SD cards because you need the extra space for a long shoot. I also use USB cables and wifi for transferring footage, but in many cases an SD card reader is the easiest method.
