Didn't think my post about having a gardening team would need a sarcasm tag.

Surely you just get your PA to organise it anyway rather than wasting your own valuable time
To be fair, we have a gardener, just because i'm rather pay some guy twice a month than do it myself and i am a mere commoner.

Yeah I'd rather have a second and forget about it.

Oh whoops, well I guess I missed it because we do have gardeners as you can't get robots to do that.

I don't mind doing the garden, I can then use that as an excuse to get the partner to do the cleaning instead.Surely you just get your PA to organise it anyway rather than wasting your own valuable time

That's my fault, I thought people would have gardeners so that's why I went with Gardening Team, a bit too subtle.

Are you me? I’m always stressing how I do the garden, and should therefore get off from doing the cleaning. She doesn’t agree though.
Walking back and forth with the mower and then the strimmer is much better than scrubbing baths and skirting boards!

Am I missing something, or are those CPU and board not compatible? 11th gen are LGA1200 and 12th gen are LGA1700. And that board is LGA1700 right?(Although, after going Z690 route, i'm tempted to take the 11900k back and get an i7 12700K instead as they are the same price) Opinions?

Delivered and now managed to get Elden Ring installed...to say I'm impressed would be an understatement.
That looks awesome. I want one! And I want Elden Ring.

Was the decision to run SteamDeck on Linux driven by tech/performance/optimisation or money?
Probably a bit of all of the above
I'm super encouraged by it early doors, definitely some quirks in it. I'm downloading Resident Evil 2 now which has not been verified yet to see how it is. From what I've seen and read it also runs very very well.

Is the screen big enough?
Also what's warranty like?
Same size of Switch OLED at 7inches which to me is fine given I've used that a lot.
Warranty I believe is 2 years for the UK as it goes by the local laws/regulation in that regard.
I hate things like this with such short warranty. But 2 years seems the norm now.
I think it would be waste on me as I don't travel much. And when I do I think it would be too expensive to take.
But looks a lovely bit of hardware

I'd just get a couple of goats.
The Steam Deck runs Linux because Valve have been deliberately hedging their bets on Linux to protect their market. When Windows 8 was launched it was clear Windows was heading in a direction that could be risky to Valve. When the Windows Store arrived it was a threat to Valve controlling what was sold on Steam. So they invested heavily in developing their Proton Compatibility layer based on existing Wine, and other Linux tools. I haven't gamed on Linux for a while but I understand the level of compatibility is quite good now.
I never knew they existed for lawns. I always assumed they were mainly indoor sweepers.
I've heard extremely good experiences about them. I'm trying to get a Schiit BiFrost 2 and Jotunheim 2 but they're out of stock in the UK and America with a waiting time of at least 2 months due to part shortages.
