Okay that is your opinion. Why assume I dont like them? I seriously have no preference so it doesnt matter if I have it or not,

Don't take it too personally, to be honest my only complain with small keyboards are the small arrow keys, or some sort of weird arrow keys, if you see my laptop, albeit very blurry, the arrow keys left and right are ok but the up and down are terrible, other than that I don't have any other complain.

Well, he has all the USB ports at hand :D

BINGO!

I tend to plug permanently connected devices in the back, removable ones in the front.

I guess whatever suits your needs / floats your boat.

Not saying it's a bad thing was just a little confused for half a second and realised the tower unit was backwards.

I don't find it too bad really. It's basic, but works for me.

Not sure about that one, my main issue with Dell keyboards, and most other OEM ones too is that the keys are like jamming your finger into peanut butter, all mushy, and when typing most of the day my fingers will start to cramp

Wanted to be different is a small reason

Some is we got mad that Cooler Master on the front did all the ports at top upside down.

Main is we have a lot of USB 3 stuff :D so fun fun fun

My workstation at the office:

Dell Latitude E6510

Core i5 M560 2.67 GHz,

4 GB RAM

Intel HD Graphics

I don't think I could handle the monitor envy I'd be suffering, if that was my view all day. Something would have to be done, asap.

My setup :) Thinkpad T420, iPad mini, Asus 24" LCD, i7-870/GTX 480 rig (soon 7950!), Razer BlackWidow Mechanical/Backlit keyboard, Logitech G400.

Amazing setup man. Everything (except the ipad) looks very professional and elegant.

Loving the Thinkpad and the case.

Thanks! The case is an NZXT Guardian, I really like the quality/looks of it. Can't tell from the picture but it has a 3-sensor temeperature display and the lines on it light up blue which matches the keyboard (also can't see). Want to get a blue Razer DeathAdder to finish it off, but I am just too happy with my G400 to justify it.

As for the iPad...yah, it's a bit out of place, but it needs some love from me, too :p

    • Claude on Windows is eating up massive amounts of RAM, with no way to stop it

      By fernan99 · Posted

      Stopped using Windows as my main workflow. Migrated completed to Linux. Been happier than a clam without a single issue nor windows annoyance. Leaving Windows has shown me the light at the end of the tunnel, or rather I went through the tunnel and I'm already at the light.
    • AirPods Pro 3 are now available for only $179

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      AirPods Pro 3 are now available for only $179 by Taras Buria Apple's third-gen AirPods Pro 3 introduced a few important upgrades over the previous generation while retaining the old $249 price. Still, that is quite a lot of money for a pair of earbuds, but the good news is that right now, you can save quite a lot of money on them, thanks to a new all-time low price. AirPods Pro 3 retain their classic look and form factor, with changes focused on the inside. These earbuds now come with five sets of foam-silicone tips, which sit much more securely in your ear, making the earbuds a perfect choice for physical activities and workouts. Additionally, new tips provide better passive noise cancellation. Speaking of noise cancellation, ANC is now much better at blocking outside noise, with Apple claiming the AirPods Pro mute up to two times more sound than the AirPods Pro 2. The AirPods Pro 3 also have heart rate sensors for activity tracking during workouts. They also support Live Translation and Hearing Aid mode. As for battery life, you get up to 8 hours on a single charge, with the case adding 20 more. The case supports wireless (Qi or Apple Watch charger) and wired charging over USB Type-C (cable not included).

    • [Official] Doctor Who Thread

      Everything I have read is that the BBC is still Pro Doctor Who but wants a solid plan before they let anyone else try to do it. Which is fair.
    • EU Commission explains why Siri AI isn't launching in the EU, and Apple is to blame

      By +Good Bot, Bad Bot · Posted

      I totally agree no one should trust governments AND big tech companies that have near monopolies in certain market segments. The difference is of course citizens at least have some say in government. Yes, requiring Apple to open up Sirsi to other AI backends is in the interest of EU customers and certainly "opens" up the platform a crack. What are you saying? I wish the US would regulate tech companies more here and even break them up in some cases. Granted trusting the government to do it right is a crap shot at best but what is the alternative? To allow a few tech companies to continue to run everything and just print money? It's crazy to me for example that in most of the world 99% of communications go thru Facebook servers via WhatsApp. What kind of dystopian world are we living in?
    • Should Microsoft be forced to stop promoting Edge over other browsers?

      By _neutrino · Posted

      You can.. make sure you have ADB tools on whatever OS you are running, plug your phone into your PC give it approval to talk to the phone then run this command. adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.chrome So long as you leave Android Webview untouched it wont break anything on your Phone to do this. I have been using exclusively Firefox mobile since it was released.
