    Windows 11 is garbage

    Yeah I've used mint and ubuntu a fair while back and I could dual boot, but the reality is i'd just boot into windows all the time as the path of least resistence. Although that might well change when win11 becomes EOL.

    Windows 11 is garbage

    To be fair I would run some sort of flavor of linux if it wern't for PC games! dunno how linux is these days for game/gpu support... and I dont want to run multiple PC/OS's when one box can do it all without too much grief.

    how much is your house insurance

    Well exactly... pc speakers, say £100, say another hunderd for mouse and keyboard, Then there's printer, xbox controller etc, etc, it soon adds up.. I dunno how granular you have to be before they would get funny about a pay-out. I'm thinking next time I need to create a full inventory...

    Windows 11 is garbage

    Hah.. I think its a fine operating system, probably because once set up properly, I don't actually spend much time in the operating sytem, I use it more as just a launcher for apps/browser/games... but I do agree...some of the design choices can be fustrating when you do need to do stuff in the...

    How old is your smartphone?

    Pretty much this... I only upgrade due to damage, tired battery or no security updates.

    Best savings account?

    Some you can open with £1 though... Chip cash ISA for example. Edit... Ah but it's variable rate though..

    Best savings account?

    I think that's correct, as long as you don't put more than 20k into any isa in the same tax year. I don’t think buying and selling within an ISA counts towards the limit. It doesn't, but not all ISAs are 'flexible', with flexible ones you can take money out and put back in, as long as you...

    Jedi Survivor - Poor Frame Rates

    Its a pretty demanding game, playing with the below PC I have to use FSR to get decent frame Vs graphics setting balance... Dunno what my actual FPS is in this game, I just fiddled to get the best visuals Vs smoothnes, it's probablt best I don't look at the actual FPS figures, lol!

    How old is your smartphone?

    If you look.. the first 4 option's are roughly equal...I'm guessing as after 4 years the batteries are usually pretty degraded and people fancy a change anyway. I answered three to four years but I bought a new phone a couple of day's ago so if I voted again I'd vote under 1 year... So looking...

    Make cannabis a Class A Drug, say Conservative Police Commissioners...

    I'm not going to single anyone out, but I don't think the repeated use of the word 'skunk' is really helping anything here. 'skunk' has become a sort of 'catch all' phrase for high THC and Low CBD varients... some high THC varients claim THC of over 20%, with pretty much zero CBD. But we now...

    National insurance cut

    If they are legal and insured, then the NHS can claim the costs of thier health care/treatment back from the insurance company. Wheather that happens or not is anyones guess. Also if they are here legally, and working, they will be paying tax and therefore able to have access to the NHS...

    Benchmarks vs reviewers at stock

    Yes...that's why, using intel as an example, you can get better results at stock speeds with an undervolt, rather than doing a small overclock that sends your peak temps high enough to throttle. Also bear in mind that something like cinebench will pin your CPU to 100% load for an extended...
