Kira-Kun: You should get a KVM for that setup. Save on desk space. I am getting one in around a month when I will have 3 machines running in my setup, but you can also get 2 port KVM's.

Ha Ha, Year, I really should, but those things are so damn expensive for my budget right now. I will keep that in mind, thanks!

:yes: Nice set up quick

Hows it like reading text say on Neowin from where you sit?

Thanks, the text is pretty easy to read I'm sitting about 9 feet or maybe less from the TV, and I can read regular windows font size no prob, i did bump up my font size in firefox though. The camera is set to wide zoom looks farther then it really is. The resolution is set to 1280 x 720 so that doesn't hurt either.

^^ what's that thing under your mouse?

HAHA, it's a cheapo black mouse pad.. the table is not smooth so if i used it on the table is would eat up the bottom of the mouse fast.

But mainly i have a 1.5' x 1.5' piece of glass from a table top, that i actually set on the couch seat right next to me (couch has indents so its not flat) and i use the mouse with the pad on there, much more comfortable to sit back on the couch rather then lean forward on the table.

Whitster where did you get that Keyboard/ Whats the name of it?

Its a Packard Bell PC. I actually got it from eBay. But I orginally saw it in PC World (Computer shop in the UK). But it was ?40 in there so there was no chance I was paying that.

Not sure of the name because I dont have the box anymore.

haha, nice Dazzla, i have the same dumbells as you :p

Same here :laugh:

Only problem is I need more weights for them, I went and bought myself the ez bar and tricep bar too and once you've put all the weight on them there's really not enough there.

Bet I can bicep curl more than both of you :p :shiftyninja:

    • Gen Atlas is the next game from Shadow of the Colossus creator, this time with giant robots

      No Steam release. It's gonna fail on PC. Even an Epic Online engineer said that people go there for the free stuff and then immediately go back to Steam.

      Nice. Admittedly, his other games never interested me, but this seems pretty cool.
    • Microsoft Edge 149.0.4022.52

      It's time to say goodbye to Edge and switch back to Firefox. There's no way to disable the ugly rounded corners that appear everywhere. Not even on the page frame. No one uses screens with rounded corners, you idiots.

      Being on Github makes it more trustable since I can see the code at any point.
    • Gen Atlas is the next game from Shadow of the Colossus creator, this time with giant robots

      Gen Atlas is the next game from Shadow of the Colossus creator, this time with giant robots by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The mind behind widely well-received games like Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and The Last Guardian, Fumito Ueda, showed up at Summer Game Fest today, and that was to reveal his latest project. Being developed by genDESIGN, Gen Atlas is incoming with what looks to be plenty of mech and robot action. Watch the reveal trailer, which makes not much sense, above. The game will have players waking up on an abandoned planet where deserted facilities and grand designs from the original creators remain. Soon, they will stumble upon a colossal robot, from which players gain access to the power to change the world. "Across an endless expanse of time, the remnants of those forgotten constructs begin to move once more," adds the studio. The gameplay snippets seen in the trailer show the player character climbing giant robots (as expected from the creator), while also controlling these titans somehow as well. This is a fully single-player open-world adventure. “The team and I are grateful to all the fans who’ve been eager to learn more about our game,” says Fumito Ueda, CEO and creative director of genDESIGN. “Their passion and enthusiasm has always motivated and inspired us. We hope to share an experience that inspires moments of quiet wonder and discovery.” Before gaining the name Gen Atlas, Ueda first announced this project back in 2024 with the codename Project Robot. Interestingly, this will be a project being funded and published by Epic Games, which should mean that a Steam release is out of the question. Gen Atlas will be releasing on Epic Games Store, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced just yet.
