    What book are you reading...

    Wasn't that keen on the end either. I guess it was a bit different but... meh. First book was excellent, other two were 'okay'. For something totally different I'm currently reading Invisible Women, which is about data bias women face. Not very exciting, but makes me a bit more mindful on...

    Recommend 2-3 books for someone that wants to get into reading

    I've been getting into reading this year, have a target of 30 books by year end, ten books done (pretty much bang on target..) My favourite book this year so far is 'Until the Last of Me' - A bit alt history, a bit sci fi, and importantly (if you are trying to get into reading), not too long...

    Yeah it doesn't unfortunately.

    Good quality KVM switches?

    Thanks, will check out both brands. I don't mind paying a bit more if it works well. It's pretty annoying when switching between devices for feeds not to get picked up.

    Good quality KVM switches?

    I have looked on the place with all the trees and they all seem to be cheap chinese imports - bought one before and had issues after 6 months of use. OC don't appear to sell any KVM switches. Are there any good quality suppliers worth looking at? Just need to connect Desktop and Laptop to same...

    What film did you watch last night?

    In Bruges - A great second watch, hadn't seen it for several years. Bohemian Rhapsody - pretty meh.

    Sitting with home fans to support the away team?

    I did this at a Millwall game. Even couldn't contain myself when Kevin Cooper scored against them from 20 yards out. All I got were a few funny stares from those near to me. I guess it depends if you are sat with the more vociferous supporters or in the family stand though!

    Gigabyte M28U Release Date

    Thanks! Sounds good. I have a KVM switch and USB hub sprawled across the desk at the moment so would be a bonus to tidy that up!

    Gigabyte M28U Release Date

    Sounds like it will work then, thanks for the answer. Mine would be a similar set up, I need to share webcam and headphone adaptor but I guess if the keyboard is detectable then everything else should be too.

    Gigabyte M28U Release Date

    Does the KVM allow both connected devices to use anything that is plugged into the USB slots on the back of the monitor? For example if I have a bluetooth headset dongle, or USB drive connected, whichever device is selected can access these?

    4K Monitor for PC and PS5 use

    Hi all I am currently using what is seemingly an old crappy 5 year old monitor that Mr PS5 has decided is not worth its attention and continually flickers every few seconds. From what I can work out, I need something along the lines of the following: 4K monitor preferably over 60hz HDMI 2.1...

    **** The Official Huawei Mate 20/Mate 20 Pro Thread ****

    Looks like a real faff changing the battery, hope you have a heat gun. :) My battery generally still lasts on most days, unless I've been particularly unfocused at work. Given it's a 4000mah battery it still does well. Maybe will have to switch to sim only for now then.

    **** The Official Huawei Mate 20/Mate 20 Pro Thread ****

    My upgrade has come up and Mate 20 Pro is still going strong. Are the new phones much of an upgrade? Only thing that tempts me is 5G or a better battery, but specs don't seem a massive step forwards.

    What game did you play last?

    I bought the Herb Witches expansion yesterday to give to a friend for Saturday - love the Quacks. Looking forward to playing it again and trying the expansion. I think last game we played was Wingspan, also tried Cosmic Encounter which seemed unbalanced but only played it once so will give it...

    **The Mental Health Thread**

    Have you considered journaling? It may be helpful to write down how your day has gone, and what stresses you may be feeling, why, what could be done to help etc. Just having to write something down may help to focus on how you feel each day and may help to uncover some anxieties you are not...

    PPE Equipment

    I work at a Trust and we have a few offers of 3D printed visors, but trying to get them approved so we can get them delivered is proving really frustrating. Similar with other PPE and donation offers etc. Can't get anyone to say yes. At least we are not desperately short of stuff at the moment.

    Wireless headset for gaming/music, £80-£150

    Bought the Corsair, seems fine after a bit of tweaking :)

    Wireless headset for gaming/music, £80-£150

    Nothing really seems to stand out in this price range. My last pair were Sony RF865Rs which are probably about 6 years old so I can't imagine most of the headsets would be worse?

    Wireless headset for gaming/music, £80-£150

    A few of the reviews mention a need to change the settings to make it sound better but also that it is one of the best Corsair headsets for sound quality. I would be more tempted by the Logitech's if the looked different, I think they're a bit ghastly.
