Haven't posted this since October. Some updates, moved things around, get the Logitech S530. Still have the old Dell 700m, to be replaced next spring sometime with a MacBook...which will then go to my wife when I start my new job and am issued a MacBook Pro + ACD!

mrogers,

How do you find the S530, I was considering buying one for myself this xmas?

I really like it. I'm very picky about my input devices. The keyboard is certainly different from the Apple one, but after a couple days I couldn't go back...I like it a lot more. It types nicely (although a little louder than the Apple keyboard), has a good feel, and the media buttons are very handy. The mouse is very nice too. One feature I originally thought was really dumb but now I use more than anything are the volume controls on the mouse -- they turn out to be a great idea!

Expect an updated picture tomorrow :p Im getting my guitars mounted to my wall and getting a lamp tonight

Good luck! I mounted mine the other day, only for it to work it's way free and nearly fall off the wall. Silly plasterboard isn't strong enough to hold up mine :(.

Looking for an cpu upgrade for it, or to exchange it with an dual cpu.

    • I don't have a problem with adverts, I not fond of the tracking. My main problem is when you have to keep clicking close to remove them before you can see anything On the site. The ones that keep updating and moving stuff around as they are different sizes are as bad. Neowin is not too bad with Adverts, but ones that keeps updating or have animation can be distracting when reading something, like the one showing now, about how much should I walk to lose weight. I realise sites need adverts to survive, but stop changing them every few seconds.
    • SQL Server Management Studio 22.7 brings "What's New" page, T-SQL formatting, and lots more by Usama Jawad SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) is the tool of choice for most developers working with SQL infrastructure and data. Microsoft recently released SSMS version 22, and in the past few months, it has been steadily releasing point upgrades to refine the integrated development environment (IDE). Now, it has released SSMS version 22.7.0 with a bunch of new features and interfaces. For starters, SSMS 22.7 has netted a native "What's New" page, which highlights the top features and bug fixes present in the latest release. However, Microsoft says that this page won't annoy you much as it will only show up each time you update SSMS, and once you dismiss it, it won't be shown again to you until the next release. Secondly, Microsoft has finally introduced T-SQL formatting inside SSMS. The good thing about this is that it does not require installing any additional components, as it is built into the native experience. All you have to do is right-click the query editor window and select Format SQL from the context menu. Additionally, you also have several customization options at your disposal, such as the ability to automatically place semicolons at the end of a statement, split clauses across multiple lines, and more. However, this capability is only in preview for now. Additionally, Microsoft has introduced a preview of Agent Mode, which allows the AI model to automatically perform complex workflows on your behalf. Furthermore, Agent Mode will operate in read-only mode by default, so that you don't have to worry about the AI model accidentally deleting your data. On a related note, Microsoft is finally allowing users to configure the execution context of GitHub Copilot. This can be controlled per database using the CONSTITUTION.md file, where you specify the user details for the agentic executor. You can find details about this and additional bugfixes in Microsoft's blog post here.
    • I only use 3 extensions in Zen. I don't need or want a ton of stuff in my browser i don't use.
    • I prefer to choose my own ad bockers, not what the browser seems to think I need. i remember the days when a browser was just that, now they try and be everything and add stuff in that not all of us want. I bet Brave is full of AI rubbish? I will stick with Zen, not perfect, but better than others.
