  1. Yeah been thinking about it but it's a works machine, not sure how happy the boss will be with me tinkering haha, plus the win 10 is an upgrade from previous os so no installation media, if I used Microsoft creation tool to make one would it still install on a different HDD/SSD if it's in the same system?
  2. It's a Toshiba dynabook b45/b win 10 pro 64bit Intel celeron 3855u 1.6GHz 8gb ram 500GB HDD, Directx 12 Not an overly powerful system but it's what I've been given to work with
  3. Hi all, this has probably been covered but I can't find it. I'm having an issue with a laptop, it is still showing disk usage 100%, I have already disabled superfetch, indexing, cortana, telemetry, win update, all the xbone crap, run check disk but nothing seems to have worked. Can anyone suggest anything please? Ethernet is also being a pain in the arse but that's an issue for another day
  4. Thanks everyone much appreciated, I'll have a look at everything and go from there, some interesting suggestions
  5. Hi all, Does anyone know of a good free CAD program please? My boss refuses to get Autodesk due to cost even though it's a far superior program, instead we use a free one called JWW CAD. It is unbelievably crap. Janky and awkward to use, it is by far an inferior program but no choice as it's the free one.... I came close to bouncing this craptop out the window today while using it. But anyway any suggestions would be appreciated Thank you
  6. Was that the on in the old house with the copper pipes and huge iron radiator bolted to the roof outside? I remember that one hahaha good times. But yeah one giant loop would be a pain one loop per server would make more sense and be a bit more manageable than one huge one
  7. Yeah I get that but surely they have enough dummy components laying about to try it without actually deploying it just to see if it can be done, did that make sense?
  8. Hey all, just re watching some old ltt vids while doing some cad work here in sunny Osaka, and I'm on the prepping for 10gigabit internet video 2 Jan 2019, at about 14 mins it's suggested by the man the myth the legend Linus himself about watercooling the entire server room. Did this idea go anywhere or is it in process? It would be a great multi part video. And as above it was suggested by Linus backed by Jake in the vid. Any thoughts? Cheers all now back to work
  9. i was just watching the last leg on channel 4 and thought that the presenter looks like Linus 30yrs from now. any thoughts? not the best photo but meh
  10. Hi, does anyone know what Ifix it kit is the main one that the guys use? Cheers
  11. sounds interesting i just hope the shipping will be reasonable. ive visited the store on numerous occasions filled a basket and then worked out the import and customs charges here on top of delivery and it usually makes every item cost twice as much which sucks.
  12. Its as if they dont want to help anyone ive been searching and trying to find a way to contact them now for 4 hours and im getting more and more pissed off with them. i want to speak to a person not a god damn click this not this now this was this helpfull pile of wank. i keep getting pop ups for aa.google.com/u/0/_/bgogb/program/get?rt=j&sourceid=117and aa.google. com/u/0/_/bgogb/program/get?rt=j&sourceid=23 and hangouts.google.com/webchat/u/0/_/data?ds.extension=106074807&_reqid=1137321&rt=j it started happening at about 2200GMT 22/06/20 and has not stopped, its just constant spam. they are .bin files as far as i am concerned they are malicious as i do not use google hangouts and as for the other 2 no clue what they are. i have no intention of accepting these downloads until i know ecactly what they are, why i am getting them, where they are coming from and why i am being spammed with them. google products i use are chrome and gmail sometimes. how would i block this spam? Thank you Tydfil
  13. hi all, just seen this motherboard and thought that it would be cool to see what kind of monster machine could be build around it. wound be an interesting video, also what it would be used for? im guessing rendering or server work https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/ROG-Dominus-Extreme/
  14. ok cool thanks, that is what i was looking for

  16. hope you are all well and safe, just a quick one im trying to access a website and it keeps geolocationg the site to the same region as my VPN even though all geolocation settings are off in my browsers and im entering the en-gb extention in the site yet it is 404ing or just looping back to the fr-ch version. is there a way to circumvent this entirely or is it getting harder and harder to avoid this form of tracking? cheers i dispise geolocation tracking.

    WIFI ISSUE

    its the only laptop that has the issue, anyother laptop that has been in this house in the past or that is brought here connects no issue and stays(ed) connected intil it was manually disconnected. i dont know what you are angling to get, but im not super super techy techy when it comes to laptops, i dont know whats exactly on that pcb other than what the system tells me and im not opening the damn thing up there is no need to do that. its not a router issue as nothing else has this problem, the channels have no traffic except mine on them, just this 1 laptop. so to that extent its most likely a software setting in win 10 somewhere thats the issue.

    WIFI ISSUE

    Hi im having an issue with my laptop. the wifi periodically and randomly disconnects. i have clicked the connect automatically button and reconnected it many many times but the setting does not hold for longer than a few days. the laptop is about 2 years old and win 10 up-to date. is there somthing im missing or is it a deeper issue? its been going on for several months. Cheers Tyd ~
  20. no no we use £GBP just thought it would be easier for the vast majority of the community to use $usd as that seems to be what most people here use. The battery wasnt bad until recently, now it barely holds 2 days charge. it was a vast improvement on my previous phone which was also a sony. its been quite reliable over the years, well travelled, dropped numerous times before its fist screen shatter, ok its not imperative to stay with sony its just prefered.
  21. apart from the iphone 4 (hated it) and an alcatel back in the late 90's ive always used a sony, so familiarity i suppose yeah. what would be a good android brand these days?
  22. just finished this vid, am looking to upgrade my z3 as the screen keeps coming out and theres only so many times you can justify the repair cost at the local "repair" store. so im having a toss up between the xperia 10 and the L3, which would be the better option? mid range is fine. im leaning towards teh L3 tbh. heres the link for it https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-Xperia-5-7-Inch-Smartphone-Black/dp/B07NWDS2WG/ref=sr_1_5?crid=3DNVQRTBW46P9&keywords=sony+xperia+l3+phone&qid=1579203319&sprefix=sony+xperia+l3%2Caps%2C500&sr=8-5 im admitedly not upto date on the various snap dragons and phone specs. but id like to stick with sony preferably. Cheers all
