    Upgrade old PC to Windows 11

    I'm moving away from Windows. I've been piloting using Linux on a mini-PC I bought a while back and I can't fault it. I might miss out on a few AAA games, but with the Steam Deck out there compatibility is gettting surprisingly good now. Think I'll buy a new SSD, keep the old Windows one to one...

    Amazon eero 6+ mesh Wi-Fi 6 router system

    If it’s just for one room and you don’t want to replace everything I’d have a look at powerline wifi extenders

    Chromebooks etc

    There are really crap ones and quite decent ones, if she's already using Google stuff then it will all integrate together nicely, can't see any reason not to go for it personally. I've no idea what's good or good value at the moment, haven't looked at them for years, so I'd say seek out some...

    Clio 182 RB

    I haven’t got my glasses on, and read that as “remove boobies from seats” First question was why remove them. Second question was where can I get seats with boobies on them. Third thought was what the actual frig am I on about. Engine rebuild price does seem spicy at first glance but then...

    The New Phone Thread

    Great for those who use the extra screen size but a niche market and they’re still fragile. Rumour is that Apple will do something in that space next time round if they can get the tech physically robust enough.

    ChatGPT (AI)

    It’s an incredibly powerful tool to streamline things in the right circumstances, but if not used appropriately it does turn people into morons. We have already started to have real problems recruiting graduates who can do stuff without it, take the crutch away and they are nowhere. That’s a...

    Project Binky - mini 4x4 turbo celica engine

    I’m pretty sure they were taking the piss, but yeah I get what you’re saying. I generally quite enjoy their content and it doesn’t bother me even if they only drop one video a year, but appreciate other people find that frustrating.

    Project Binky - mini 4x4 turbo celica engine

    Maybe, but it can’t be a shock. How long is it now that they’ve been incredibly slow at releasing new content? Anyone still paying and expecting anything different to what they’re getting hasn’t been paying attention for the last few years 😂

    Project Binky - mini 4x4 turbo celica engine

    They can’t win, people constantly ask what’s been going on with it, they say what’s been going on with it (not much), people aren’t happy with the update. Ancient fibreglass and ply board bus in “completely rotten” shock 😂

    The 'I work in I.T' thread

    b****cks 😂 Oh well, impatience and bored eBay surfing buggers me up yet again.

    The 'I work in I.T' thread

    I’m such a f**king nerd 😂 New-to-me server in the garage. 32 core/64 thread, 9.6Tb of spinning rust, a slightly mean 64Gb of memory but tons of room to expand that. Virtualisation heaven with no-one to piss me off about spending money on hosting costs. £150 from eBay. I’m unreasonably...

    K20 powered 172

    Nooooooo…. I always thought this was the perfect concept, best hot hatch chassis of it’s generation with the best hot hatch engine from the same time period. What’s happened? I guess selling it complete makes no sense vs parting it out?

    New, Fully Electric Renault 5

    An A290 GTS just popped up on the company SS scheme in the in-stock section for £400 a month, no deposit, maintenance and insurance included. Anyone with Tusker who wants one move quick, they only have one.
