My current daily workstation at home (I am a freelancer). The printer is an HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus, the speakers are a Sony SRS-D5. There are awesome for the budget (around US$45 here in Chile) and the TV is an AOC Full HD 24", I don't know the model.

The rest of the things are specified in my signature.

Your left LCD looks the most messy :p

Change wallpaper and all will be fixed ;)

I have over 50 abstract BGs I made and I got a new WP and window color scheme every half an hour. (Using server 2012)

Katz like cheeze? :p

We bought a posh cheese platter thing for boxing day when my folks came down and I thought I would eat the entire thing myself but tbh there was only 1 cheese that I liked, I LOVE cheese too!

btw, if you like mayonnaise you need to try my invention, make a normal cheese and mayo sandwich, maybe slightly more mayo than normal, then microwave it until the cheese melts, I find 1 minute per 2 slice sandwich works fairly well for a 700w mic

Mmmmm.... cardiac arrest in a bite but VERY nice, it tastes nothing like cheese and mayo, try it to believe ;)

Sorry for the blurry image I'll upload a better quality one when I can, moved into a new place and this is my workstation, well... more like work area. Just upgraded to Windows 8 Pro on the desktop with the Media Center addon.

Nice desk, I feel like I used to have one of those in one of the many places I've lived... not sure where though because I would have kept it

I think I had my tower in the left side though

The desk was in the room when I moved in, it has a wooden panel at the back that I can't remove which means that I can't fit the tower under the desk.

No, I'm originally from the SW but I'm currently in the SE at Uni.

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By ikjadoon · Posted

      It is silly there is no simple way to check whether this profile has been activated. CFRs are normal, but trying to even hide the fact if it's on / off seems silly, especially for something so user-facing. Surely Microsoft is "proud" of their engineering efforts on this one and ought to display it somwhere in the GUI.

      Many Linux distros are not known for excellent battery life, so I'm not sure that is the best example. A more apt example may be Apple, but Apple's CPUs are simply far more efficient than Intel & AMD at single-threaded tasks like these, so "boosting" is not as power-hungry and less heat-inducing. Not to mention Apple will hardly engage P-cores for basic UI tasks; they use a pretty complicated QoS scheme to only activate P-cores for more serious workloads like HTML / JS execution or decompression or application launch. Microsoft is (smartly) doing it for launch, but also for UI tasks, which is the more nonsensical part: why ... do Windows 11's UIs need modern CPUs to boost? It should load so quickly that there's not even time for the CPU to boost.

      I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.

      It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      By Danielx64 · Posted

      Can LibreOffice just shut up and worry about themselves and stop comparing themselves? Do we see Microsoft complaining about euro office?
