First off, for give me for quoting the massive image!

Next, did you get your chair from Ikea?

@ IK .:. 47, will get a new desk once my new home is built. Throwing all this crap furniture away and getting an interior designer to do it all.

@ Kerm, I actually 41 phones :p But those are the ones I use mostly.

Two are always on, and I switch depending on the mood I guess.

@ProfessorX, The samsung is a great D500. Super fast phone. Highly recommended.

get it cheap at Oxygen mobile :p

@MrMB, I save my money :p then buy things that i probably dont need, then when something nicer comes out, I sell something and get that. E.g. Sold my S700 to get the V800. So it's a nice round circle.

@Nighthawk, well I work for Qatar Petroleum (controls almost most of the worlds Natural Petrol and Gas), I'm a student studying at Uni for them, so they pay me. In essence they pay me to study so when I finish I give them years of my life.

Helps that I graduated top of my country as well.

@matthewf01, I Love SE, I support them all the way (see OSX.SE theme for P series) I hang at esato.com mostly rather that Hofo. Come on down :)

interior designer eh? sounds pretty neat.

41 phones though? of all the SE phones you have owned, which has been the best/worst of it's time?

What exactly do you do for Qatar? Sounds really interesting. Is your occupation oil related, or what?

last question: Can I have a phone?

Can I have a mac?

lol!!!!

@ IK, As soon as I finish at Uni I'll be working for Qatar Petroleum's Legal Division.

The best phone I've ever owned was the P900 (still prefer it over the P910)

at esato.com I donate some old phones now and then, i make little competitions and offer them. Doesn't happen too frequently though.

@Night, I'd give you a mac if I was rich. I'm just well off. Most months I'm pretty skint.

@storm, I actually prefer the D500's design more.

Sexay. Imagine if they made an iPod white one. ooooh.

Maybe I could just break into your home :p

Where in the UK are you, near Edinburgh?

(Maybe somewhere I can get to by bike?)

@IK, well as I mentioned I was the top student in the country. They offered to sponsor me and give me a scholarship. n return I work for them for the amount of years that I study.

It's a win win situation since I have a guaranteed job once I finish Uni.

Not that what I'm doing is easy.

edit: note it's called Qatar Petroleum or QP. Qatar is the country :p

Here it goes.

I might have to post in multiple areas since I promised to so here it goes.

Finally got the V800  to add to the Lightside.

Guess I'll update the pics as I add more gear.

Yet another quotes an unnecessary amount of images to make a short statement.

stop doing it. It is annoying.

Do you have your own house? Or any bills to pay? Jeez.

@hotwire, yes thats a wireless apple mouse.

@eric, at the moment I rent and I pay my own bills. Once the new home is built (should be finished next month) I'll only have to pay bills, but with the amount of bills I'll have to pay it'll probably cost the same as renting a month anyway.

    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation by Taras Buria Story time. A couple of weeks ago, I experienced a very odd thing with my computers. I was trying to reinstall Windows 11 on my primary device, and everything was going smoothly until the installer performed the first restart. After that, my computer entered the boot disk selection screen instead of continuing the setup process. Huh, that's odd, said I, and selected Windows Boot Manager only to see it fall back into the same screen right away. Then I tried booting from the USB drive with the same result—the PC kept returning to the boot device selection screen, and removing the drive would send my PC to UEFI, again, with no way to launch Windows 11. I fired up my spare laptop, which has been sitting unused for quite a while, to see if I am dealing with a defective USB drive. Nope, Windows 11 installed and started without issues. After trying another drive and checking all the possible settings in UEFI, I decided to try disabling Secure Boot. Lo and behold, Windows 11 started as it should have been in the first place, continued the setup process, and reached the initial setup screen. Victory! After I finished the setup and applied all updates, I re-enabled Secure Boot, and Windows 11 started without issues. Some time later, I tried reinstalling Windows 11 on my laptop only to experience similar issues, with UEFI claiming a Secure Boot violation. I checked whether the drive works on my main PC, and yes, it installed Windows 11 without errors. I scratched my head, went to UEFI, turned off Secure Boot, and installed Windows 11 without issues. After that, I enabled Secure Boot. Note: I used the official Media Creation Tool app for my USB drive. Also, UEFI was properly configured for Windows 11, including no Legacy Mode, a GPT-partitioned drive, and TPM and Secure Boot enabled. From my experience, if you are dealing with similar symptoms, I recommend two things: If you use old Windows 11 install media, create a new one with the latest Windows 11 release, especially if you know your PC already has the latest Secure Boot certificates. If you cannot create a new one, turn off Secure Boot, complete the installation, download all available updates, and then re-enable Secure Boot in UEFI. Note that you need to turn off Secure Boot after installing Windows 11. Otherwise, the installer won't run, claiming a hardware requirements mismatch. I believe the problem hides in Secure Boot certificates that expire this month. Microsoft is currently rolling out new certificates, and maybe a mismatch was causing these issues for both of my systems. I am out of my depth to make a definitive statement; this article is flagged as "Opinion," as I only share my experience and some tips on how to fix the problem. If some of you possess deeper knowledge and understanding of the situation, please share it in the comments. As for everyone else struggling with computers not booting after a clean install, the two steps above should get you out of the pickle.
    • I gave the tool a chance the other day to make a USB. An hour later it was stuck at 0% downloaded. I downloaded the official ISO, downloaded Rufus, and made the USB myself in 15 min.
    • <Moved to software discussion and support> I've got fond memories of Winamp. Changing the skins, the different visualisations etc. But now I just need a simple music player. MSN messenger would be another one, MSN Messenger Plus (I think?) offered so many different plugins. But again, it probably wouldn't work for me these days. And then there is miRC. i think it's still going these days, but lord i had fun with that back in the day. Now it's mostly stuff like Discord, WhatsApp group chats, Signal, Telegram... /me is showing his age...
    • ive always been fascinated by old software this is an old video player for windows from apple
    • In the way that you framed it incorrectly. You wrote: "The constant need to close all browser sessions and wait for a new version to install" There's no "constant need to close all browser sessions". That's factually incorrect. The browser downloads its updates in the background and installs them when you open it again. Silently. And there's no "wait for a new version to install", updates are small and take 2-3 extra seconds AT MOST, if any. If you have an SSD, there's zero extra time. Also, every mainstream browser operates this way. Firefox, the FOSS go-to browser, the default on almost every Linux distro, does exactly the same. Also, you don't need to constantly restart Edge for updates to install, you can completely ignore them and it doesn't even ask you to handle them, it's all silent and automatic. So I don't understand what else do you want.
