I just use my work iphone for calls / texts as we lock our iphones with DEP and custom management profiles to prevent us from doing much to them. Even if they were not locked, the features of the samsung note are something i use daily and im not sure what i would do if i had a device that didnt have...

Re: What are you actually running for daily/primary usage?
Well the alienware is an 8th gen i9 and even re-pasting every 6 months it gets really hot sometimes. I know its designed to do this and well within tolerance but i needed something for study that was quiet and had more than 4 hrs battery. The macbook pro has given me a little over 30 hours when usin...

Re: What are you actually running for daily/primary usage?
Went to the dark side in 2022, so far so good, got emacs and a few other things and the battery life is incredible.
The big alienware laptop still runs arch but that needs its kbd fixing and its really starting to show its age.

Re: BOOK! (Hardcopy edition)
Sounds really interesting Ivan. When i studied history in school we only learned about JFK and all the terrible things white people did in Africa. Nothing about Europe, WW1 or WW2, or UK history.

Re: BOOK! (Hardcopy edition)
As some of you may know i'm dyslexic and up until a couple of years ago I struggled with most texts and found I missed words when reading or found some grammar impossible to understand. Reading whole books was so difficult that I never read for pleasure. Now I have various tools to assist me, I can ...

Re: TV series
^ I've just started Series 2. I've not seen either of those 2 Stargate spin-offs, but now i know they are made by the same team who make Dark Matter I will search for them on Netflix. I do remember as a kid the original Stargate SG-1 and thought that was great. I should really download that to.

Re: TV series
Currently enjoying a series called Dark Matter http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4159076/. My first impressions were that it reminds me a little of both Firefly and Lost. Firefly in that spaceships are "rusty", they use guns/knives instead of fancy phasers. It remind me of lost in that the story...

Re: good morning, good night
Good morning grillers. It's 7:30 am here and I'm just about to get off the train.
Not had breakfast yet but I was able to fix hibernate on my laptop and make some more notes on the train.
It's "pissing it down" as we say in the UK. Hope you all have a great day :)
