    Do you charge your children "keep" or rent? Do/did you pay it yourself?

    When I got my first job, my parents asked for contribution to teach me the value of money.. They then proceeded to spend it on very expensive bottles of wines... :o I'm not sure if I ever quite understood that lesson.

    Should I be Worried? I9 14900K

    I'd suggest you don't have a good uniform contact between the cpu and cooler. Edit - what Mark says above.

    Domain renewal

    At £7 for a renewal I believe that's a good price. I doubt GoDaddy are making more than a few pence on it. It's a very competitive price. Most Hosts/registrars offer some kind of sign up deal for registering a new domain for your first year, however few if any provide such a deal if...

    Laptop Dock

    In theory -that will be a all in one solution (provide power to the laptop too) - I assume the whole purpose of this is to reduce clutter ? It should also provide enough bandwidth using thunderbolt4 hardware in your laptop instead of a reduced compatibility mode using the USB standard (yes...

    Laptop Dock

    What laptop do you have ? Depending on model, it will be able to output it's display via differing methods. Different USB Ports may also have differing video output abilities left/right side etc. Docks don't really exist anymore, we just get crappy breakout hubs, and multiport adaptors...

    The "New Gear/Willy Waving" thread

    Surely lowepro have something to offer. I can't fault the backpack I use. They appear to have a ridiculous amount of various bags. Although maybe I'm out of touch with the bag 'in crowd' ?

    Rwanda - anybody been?

    It's definitely worth a visit if you do it properly. Spending a few days in the mountains with the gorillas is humbling. Having a silver back grunt, stare you in the eyes as he effortlessly pushes you over to walk past is a thrill. It's not cheap and the hiking can be tough. All good tour...

    Advice Request: 14700k + NH-D15 + Contact Frame + Kryosheet, Thermal Throttling in R23 Multi-Core @ stock

    These chips are excessively overclocked out of the box/defaults. As the 13900k and 14900k are basically the same I think the same applies to both. The 13900k I have scores 34k in r23 temps max out in the 60's and stay the same in long multi day render's (water-cooled). All I did was set the...

    Ukraine Invasion - Please do not post videos showing attacks/similar

    Whilst AMD did acquire Xilinx last year. The FPGA's in question are from around 2003 (20 years ago). The issue with FPGA's is that they can be re-purposed from one specialist task to another. (Hence the name Field Programable Gate Array). This is why there was talk of Russia salvaging...

    Insta360x3 Help

    Just to update, the POS is definitely malfunctioning. A short video or similar it behaves as expected, the "record" button works to start-stop recording. Pretty much anything longer than a few mins and it "soft locks" so you cannot stop recording without force turning it off, which then...

    I just got a insta360x3 and am struggling to use it .:o Everything seems straightforward, - hit record, run around, then... how do you stop recording ? - The button that you press to record, - the little o doesn't do anything. The screen is still responsive, and you can see the...

    Stolen Parcel. Need advice please.

    Part of the problem is the design of our properties. Generally we have a letterbox on the front door, however no design consideration was made for parcels. Things were built and designed in the days when parcels were a rarity (ignore current new builds as they are mostly terrible disposable...

    Help with Photoshop not working with my Graphics Card and coming up with this error

    I just upgraded to the latest (was on v23 previously) - The new AI stuff does run fine with the "use graphics processor" unticked. - Try that. Photoshop does feel a bit sluggish overall though.

    Help with Photoshop not working with my Graphics Card and coming up with this error

    I don't know to be honest, I copied the response from https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/known-issues.html I see others who have questioned the error you receive and the response from adobe is to upgrade the gpu. I expect the new versions of photoshop are built to use specific code paths...
