Not a new "system" as such but a new configuration now sporting an Ergotron MX desk arm which looks like an exo-skeletan part from a Terminator and 1.7TB of storage \m/

Nice arm! Did that come with the monitor? If not, how's it connected?

Where's the tower? :p

and is that a vaio Z?

The arm was an individual purchase the other day :p it's connected to the back of the monitor via a VESA mounting plate the monitor came with. Most arms will be VESA 75mm or 100mm so will work with many screens out of the box but some screens will need the VESA bracket like mine does.

Netbook is a Samsung NC10 but it's sporting some battlescars at the moment as I managed to drop it outside! - works fine however :)

As for the tower, not much has changed in it since I last posted here, perhaps a GTX260 and new HDD is the only change but visually it's unchanged:

I do like the P182 for it's dust free interior :D I have padded out the top vent and the front dust guards work excellently - there's only a very minimal amount of dust inside the case after several months!

BTW Kiwi, what chair is that? looks comfy!

The other part is glad you got gunmetal gray because of the cable management :laugh:

?

My case is the silver P182...has the exact same cable management as the grey one just....not in grey but silver panels.

It's rare to find a silver P182 as well so is a bit more special :p

yeah I just remembered it was the P180 that lacked cable management, I edited my post but it seems I wasn't 'fast & furious' to make the edit :laugh:

What's the smartphone to the left of the first pic? E71 by any chance?

And what model is your case?

The case is a CoolerMaster CM832

and the smartphone is a Nokia E61i. Personally I want to change and either get one of the newer Blackberry's or the E71.

    • Thank god they got rid of the disgusting looking sidebars, and the corner radius looks much better, too. Two things I hated on day one, and never got used to.
    • JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements by David Uzondu JetBrains has released the fifth EAP version of Rider 2026.2, bringing a faster startup flow with the new non-modal startup screen and quality-check hooks for Claude Code and Codex. In the latest EAP release, Rider now has newly bundled "quality-check" hooks that run background tests on code edits before the external agent proceeds. For example, after Claude Code rewrites a class, Rider immediately triggers a PostToolUse hook that analyzes the code for syntax errors and formatting warnings. It then passes those findings back to the model as feedback, allowing the agent to fix its own output before finalizing the task. If Rider detects compilation errors, the IDE prevents the agent from treating the task as complete, while minor formatting warnings simply help guide the model toward better output. The "Explain with AI" feature can now tackle tricky build errors directly from the console, helping .NET developers who frequently wrestle with multi-targeting failures and MSBuild errors. JetBrains introduced Explain with AI back in the 2024.1 release cycle. With this feature, instead of forcing developers to copy long diagnostics into a separate chat window, Rider now lets you trigger these explanations directly from the error source. In similar EAP news, JetBrains recently opened the first EAP for IntelliJ IDEA 2026.2, with features that appeal to both those who are into AI-assisted coding and those who prefer "classic" manual development. For manual developers, the release adds revamped dependency completion for Maven and Gradle build scripts, which pulls data directly from the local cache to suggest relevant versions. It also brings the Spring Debugger update, displaying security indicators next to endpoints to visualize secured routes during runtime. In addition to database migration tools for Flyway and Liquibase, this build introduces a Hibernate debugger that shows the exact SQL or HQL queries that the framework plans to execute, letting developers jump directly to the Java code that triggered them.
