I got fed up with my room as it was, and have been redecorating for the last month or so now. Unfortunately my camera (Exilim EX-Z750) only arrived today; the room is nearly done now. :laugh:

I must've spent close to ?2000 on my audio and video setup now, just got my sub this morning:

  • Samsung LE32R41BX
    Cyrus 7 Integrated Amplifier
    JBL XTi 20 Speakers
    BK XLS200-DF Subwoofer
    Grado SR-80 Headphones

Makes up my main setup, although I'm waiting on delivery of an Oppo upscaling DVD player. (came out on top of a comparison with players from $200-13,000)

Am also waiting on a replacement Joytech AV control centre for SCART/Component switching.

I'm thinking about getting the LCD ISF calibrated soon, and I'll probably buy a good DAC as well. Does anyone have thoughts / opinions on whether it's worth it? (?200)

The spaces on the left are for my X360 and other next-gen systems when they arrive:):)

PAL Xbox (softmodded for progressive scan) Modded PAL PS2 (for imports) JP Gamecube, Japanese Saturn, Super Famicom, my XRGB2+ Line Doubler, and various controllers.

I'll be taking care of the wires once everything else arrives.

17" 1.67GHz Powerbook G4, 2GB RAM, 100GB Hard drive, 128mb Radeon 9700 Mobility, the works:):)

Wacom "Pearl" Graphire 3 A5 tablet.

GBA/DS games, Music CDs, Software, and that's the sub hiding under the desk.

I still need to get a new shelf for all my games/dvds, something to hold those controllers, new lighting and sheets for my bed. (still got dark grey ones on it)

you wil probably need a processor / amplifier if your existing b&o cd player doesnt have inputs, also i woudl recommend you at least get a center speaker, and probably also a sub woofer if you are planning on getteing a dolby digital or pro logic amplifier.

This time both recovery and setup updates were released for Windows 11 as well as Windows 10.

    • Quantum Error Correction Validated in Nature: Microsoft and Quantinuum Log 800-Fold Improvement Two years after the original press-release announcement, independently peer-reviewed results published in Nature on June 10, 2026, have confirmed that Microsoft and Quantinuum achieved an 800-fold reduction in quantum error rates on real trapped-ion hardware — the largest gap between physical and logical error rates ever independently validated.    What Quantum Error Correction Actually Does — and Why Breaking Even Is Hard https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318329/20260613/quantum-error-correction-validated-nature-microsoft-quantinuum-log-800-fold-improvement.htm   Quantum Computing Wiring Bottleneck Cracked by HKU Silicon Carbide Chip at Qubit Temperature Engineers at the University of Hong Kong have built the first cryogenic control chip that operates at the same temperature as superconducting qubits — 10 millikelvin, or just one-hundredth of a degree above absolute zero — without generating the heat that has forced every competing approach to park its electronics hundreds of meters of cable away. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318325/20260613/quantum-computing-wiring-bottleneck-cracked-hku-silicon-carbide-chip-qubit-temperature.htm  
    • RevPDF 4.5.0 by Razvan Serea RevPDF is a free, fully offline PDF editor for Windows, macOS, and Linux that lets you edit text and images directly inside PDF files — no internet connection, no account, and no cloud uploads required. Unlike bloated alternatives that demand subscriptions and constant connectivity, RevPDF fits in under 60MB on desktop while delivering a complete editing toolkit: annotate, redact, sign, compress, split, merge, convert, and reorganize pages, all processed locally on your device. Smart font matching ensures edited text blends seamlessly with the original, and multi-language support includes RTL scripts such as Arabic and Hebrew. Where most PDF editors force you to choose between features and simplicity, RevPDF manages both. You can build interactive forms from scratch with text fields, checkboxes, and dropdowns, permanently redact sensitive data before sharing, draw freehand on contracts and diagrams, and add custom watermarks — all without a single file leaving your machine. Edit Text and Images Directly Inside PDFs RevPDF supports true inline PDF editing — not just annotation layers on top of a document, but actual modification of existing text and images within the file. A smart font-matching engine identifies the font used in the original document and applies it automatically when you make edits, so changes blend naturally with the surrounding content. You can reposition elements, resize images, and update text across single pages or entire documents. RevPDF 4.5.0 release notes: This is one of the biggest updates to RevPDF yet. A lot of things people have been asking for are finally here. New Features Auto Redaction Permanently redact sensitive text and areas from your PDFs before sharing. Clean, irreversible, and fully offline. Comments, Links & Bookmarks Add comments for review, insert clickable links, and create bookmarks to jump around long documents without scrolling forever. Find & Replace Search across the whole document and replace text in one go. Long overdue. Split Pages Vertically or Horizontally Split any page down the middle, vertically or horizontally. Perfect for scanned books or double-page spreads. New Drawing Tools More tools for freehand drawing and markup, better for annotations, sketches, and detailed notes. Continuous Scrolling in Editor The editor now scrolls continuously through pages instead of jumping between them. Working through long documents is a lot smoother now. PDF Metadata Editor View and edit the metadata stored inside your PDFs, including title, author, subject, and keywords. Better Font Matching Text edits now blend in more naturally by doing a better job of matching the original font. Tabbed PDF Viewer Open multiple PDFs at once in tabs and switch between them without going back to the home screen. Add Links Insert hyperlinks anywhere in your PDF, to external URLs or to other pages within the document. Share & Print Shortcuts Share or print directly from the editing screen, home screen, and viewer. No extra steps. Minor Updates Paste images directly from clipboard into your PDF New image editing tools for more control over images inside documents Bug Fixes Fixed file saving issues on Windows and Linux Everything still works fully offline. No login, no cloud, no account. Your files stay on your device.

    • Interesting. I'm not using a VPN with my phone. I tried though my home internet (Rogers) and my cellular internet (Telus) using their respective DNS servers and both trigger the dialog above.
