I didn't clean up as I wanted the world to see that not everything is perfect :). I clean up about once a week but I tought I'd break the mold here and show the "end-of-the-week" result.

This is my workstation for business, development and some gaming. The left side is for hobby projects.

(And yes that thermostat is reading 27.6C .. aircon is off, too much noise. Again sorry for bad quality .. this was taken with my Touch Dual)

Nice mouse. Unfortunately I think my MX1000 is on the way out... it's behaving really erratically which is especially annoying if I'm in the middle of TF2. It seems they only sell the Revolution now, though, which I don't like at all :(

I think I already posted in this thread, so here's a weird workstation picture:

Workstation is a big word .. also .. most of us do work at home (full time, parttime, just for fun, on ocasion)

Revolution is one of the best mouse they made (unless your an hardcore LAN gamer). I however dislike the fact by default you lose your middle click which I use a lot for tabs in IE. However my brother gave me a little hint which made me install the Logitech crapware software again. You can finetune the mousewheel.

By default it's a normal mousewheel. Click the wheel and it's an flywheel. Thus making you lose middlemouse.

However you can turn off the flywheel and just have normal wheel. (Or the other way around).

You can also set it on auto which is @^#*&^$ great. What it does .. it keeps your wheel on normal wheel setting, allows you to middle click and it doesn't switch to flywheel. However .. when scrolling fast (also fine-tuneable), it skips to flywheel making you scroll like hell. So when just on Neowin I scroll lightly to read the entire page. However on some topics or larger documents, I just hit the wheel and it skips to fly-wheel making me "fly" through the document. GREAT stuff.

Logitech software still stinks and the settings (as they require some time to set up/fine tune for me) aren't exporable. One reinstall / format and it's all gone :(

There are ways, just not native ways. Check out the Matrox Dual-Head to Go product. ;)

workstation would be your computer "area" your general area of where you sit at your computer.... and if you work underground like area 51?

if your remote control is older than you, it might be time for a new tv

If you are referring to the one on my desk, then that is a control for the stereo - which is indeed older than I am (was my Dads when he was younger, but its still running good).

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

      By Snake Doc · Posted

      Seriously 1.8gig....so what. Any computer, if you are going to do serious work on, in 2026 should have a mimimum of 16gig and I would say 32-64gig is the way to go.
    • Microsoft is bringing big performance improvements to OneDrive on Mac

      So again, you'd consider "I'm happy with my LG TV" to be a valid response to an article about PlayStation? I get the "I don't like any of their products" but how does that in any way invoke Linux? It just feels very random.

    • State of Decay 2, Blasphemous 2, and more join Xbox Free Play Days

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      State of Decay 2, Blasphemous 2, and more join Xbox Free Play Days by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The latest Free Play Days offer has just kicked off, giving Xbox players the chance to try out a new selection of games over the weekend. The offerings this time aren't as massive as last weekend, but there are still major releases for Xbox players to jump into. This includes Undead Labs' post-apocalyptic title State of Decay 2, as well as two Team17-published titles. Two of the games being offered this time are available to all Xbox players without needing any kind of Game Pass subscription. In the fully free-to-play section, you can jump into State of Decay 2. The title is both an action survival title and a community builder, letting players choose a map, set up their base, and try to keep the growing zombie threat at bay. Cooperative play is available too. Don't forget that the studio is preparing a third entry for 2027. Next, Blasphemous 2 drops in for Metroidvania and Soulslike fans, where The Penitent One returns for another adventure. The title has tough combat with multiple weapon options, deadly traps to avoid, and platforming sequences requiring a lot of patience and timing. Keep in mind though that the offer does have a 5-hour time limit attached to it. Lastly, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, Premium, and Essential members can now try out the WWII-set first-person shooter Hell Let Loose. The multiplayer game offers 50 vs 50 combat in massive maps, with infantry, tank, and artillery options available for players. Here are the announced games and the platforms they are available to play on: Hell Let Loose (Xbox Series X|S, PC) State of Decay 2: Juggernaut Edition (Xbox Series X|S, PC) Blasphemous 2 (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) To easily find the titles on Xbox consoles, first head to the Store, and then in the sidebar, find the Home section. In there, open the Subscriptions tab. The Free Play Days collection will show up in this area. This week's Free Play Days promotions will end on Sunday, June 11, at 11:59 pm PT.
