55 is no age to leave, that's just not right. I'm 54 and just about retire from a 37 year tech career, I'm looking forward to finally being able to do things I want. Then you hear tragic stories like this it makes you realise that time is so damn precious and you never know how much you're...

Not owned Macs since 2016, that was after 17 years of them serving me so well. I just lost faith in Apple as they seem more focused on iOS and couldn't give a damn about those of us who had stuck with them and their desktops, they seemed more focused on the money printing machine that's their...

I'm so glad we're following the example of our US cousins. We can have nutters running around the streets with guns and knives and the Police do sod all. However, seeing a bit of flesh and suddenly we're back in 1600s Puritan England under Cromwell! What's next, banning eating Christmas dinner...

Mimic look, feel, gameplay, all that jazz. However, literally re-using copyrighted assets? Hope you have a good lawyer!

Easy, pull the ethernet cable out of the back of the TV or disable the wifi, simples! My TV is not connected to the home network, absolutely not reason it should be. I have an Android based media streaming box accessing my NAS boxes where I keep my ripped DVDs. No Netflix, no Disney+, no Hulu...

When I buy X and it states, "This cannot be run, not enough VRAM." and it closes, then I'll upgrade my old 3060. I game 2-3 hours a day and I'm happy to sacrifice some graphics fidelity simply to just keep playing. As an old fart who's been building PCs since the early 1990s I'm way past all...

"Ba-dum-tish! I'm here all week!"

What's "self-exit" to do with politics? Anyone can feel the world has come down on them harder then ever, and at any time in their lives for any reason. Debt, abusive partners, abusive or insensitive co-workers. I've stared into the deepest black maws a couple of times, due to debt from trying...

McNally’s lawyer: “When you did it yourself, did it occur to you for one moment that maybe the best thing to do, instead of file a lawsuit, was to fix [the lock]?” Superb!

"You will damn well accept whatever we ram down your throats! If you don't like it then move to another system, but it's only a matter of time until we get to that one too! Mwhahahahah!"

A-players, eh? Well they're certainly A-somethings!

I bought a two Decks, one for me and one for my wife and while mine now has pride of place under the TV and goes to work with me on in-office days, I don't think hers has seen the light of day for a few months now as she simply prefers her Switch or her laptop. My daughter borrowed the Deck for...

Absolutely! It's not automated if you have to keep checking it. When you automate something you want to know only when it failed not when it succeeded, or waste time checking it. If you have to keep checking something you've automated then you may as well manually run it yourself when you get in...

"America will be affected." No, the whole world is affected as the US is a major trading partner and many people around the world invest in US markets and companies. BTC and fiat got hammered in the last few hours of Friday. So fed up with toddlers like Trump able to throw their toys of their...
