    A few cans of Stella :) Got a PSU coming tomorrow, so hopefully this will be sorted before he goes back to Uni.

    Agreed, we're looking for a new PSU and my geek team have offered to fit for him.

    Son won some PC goodies - need help :)

    Aw thanks, but up in the Lincs outback! Well, card is working, it was a PICNIC error. The card is drawing max 180w and all he has in the system is an SSD, HDD and CD/DVD drive - not sure if this is stable or will blue screen at some point, but fans are spinning.

    Son won some PC goodies - need help :)

    Well goodies have arrived! GPU doesn't spin up or display - now i've got into the PC, it's only a 300w PSU :( I'm not confident enough to change a PSU and the local PC shop want £75 + the part cost to fit.

    **British Armed Forces Discussion Thread**

    How dare you assume my gender - *triggered* Was tempted to say I identify as the really worn thread due to this ****! Don't get me wrong, D&I obviously has its place, but that slide and comment got a very audible groan from a few; it was cringe.

    F2F group presentation - not the usual DLE 'training'.

    Well, while other countries are preparing for war, the new D&I training. 1st slide: And asked, "Which cotton spool do you identify as?"

    Right we have a plan! Chuck in the new card and see how we get on. Get a new system when we can afford it. Thanks all.

    I don't mind changing stick, cards etc, but a cpu is beyond me. I'd **** it up no doubt.

    Son won some PC goodies - need help :)

    Care to spec me a CPU? Yeah the SSD is small, but he's happy and it's working - he's a poor student. Although he won the bundle using his PC at an e-sport tournament!

    What TV shows are you currently watching

    I'm no youngster and thoroughly enjoyed it. However, the 1st 2 episodes were great and dipped in the middle, picked up back towards the end. So if you didn't enjoy the 1st 2, then you've probably made the right decision to sack it off.

    Advice on coworker's smell

    Had this with one of my young lads in the office. It was awkward, but that's why we're paid the big bucks. Informal chat to start with, if it wasn't sorted locally, then i would have raised to HR. I wouldn't bring anybody else into this ie don't say "there have been complaints about your BO"...

    JOKER 2: Folie à Deux

    They did this with Evita - almost hiding that there was hardly any dialogue. Probably why so many people left the cinema.

    New Star Trek series - 2017

    Yes, thought that was a bit of a cop out, we should have had Rayner in his chair and the dialogue between each captain F2F as oppose to voice comms :( First 2 episodes viewed - i really enjoyed them and they looked visually stunning. I hope it keeps up this standard throughout.

    Matrix 5

    It really was poop :( Watch the opening though if you're a Matrix fan - then switch off and forget it ever existed.
