So far my replacements are because of becoming outdated!

This 8GB RAM still suits me TV on shelf near roof just watch 7 news
mainly, then my computer for papers.

Useless when updating an access database.
Proper touch screen laptop works vastly better.

I use voice input for the iphone, leaves a keyboard for dead.

Vastly as far as portability is concerned.

So do the better planes.

I wasnt talking about passing the time away, just portability.

I do pass the time using my phone, normally reading kindle books.
The SE3 screen is plenty and I actually prefer it to the Kindle
PaperWhite which isnt as confortable in my hand, the SE3 is
much more comfortable which is why I bought it in the first place.

I use that all the time.

Been doing that for years now.

I have only used the train from sydney just the once,
because a pov was paying for it. I always fly.

Hasnt destroyed any of mine. I'm still using
the original Win7 install, July-09

> So far my replacements are because of becoming outdated!

My next will be because the current motherboard doesnt
easily support Win11 and because I am not a pov and
would like full touch screens on the new PC, Would only
need a new motherboard and ram and new screens.

I haven't watched any TV news for years now,
much prefer ABC Just In and the BBC RSS feed.

Tho today the fucking BBC didnt even mention that their
supreme court had just rejected Sunak's Rwanda scheme.

I don't bother with any of the shit rags anymore.

I almost entirely watch docos. All streamed now or torrented.

Turns out that what IKEA call Toll/IPEC calls themselves TeamGE
and that they are completely fucking useless. BY FAR the worst
operation I have ever had the misfortune to be saddled with.

The useless fuckers dont give their drivers a mobile phone so that
there is no way for the driver to ring your mobile when they can't
work out where your house is. No one else is actually that stupid.

The driver decided that there was no one home, but didnt
even bother to knock on the fucking door and I made sure
that I was always there all day and didnt even move away from
the front door all day even for a piss and just dumped the parcel
at the hub which is one of the newagents in the main street.

That happed a few years ago with the same useless operation
and has happened every single fucking time that a delivery has
come using those useless fuckers.

And while you can certainly ring that useless operation, they
refuse to attempt a redelivery. After I demaned a supervisor,
he did claim that I can get IKEA to request a redelivery, but
I bet that the useless fuckers will just fail to delivery again.

Haven't rung IKEA yet, too early yet. It will be interesting
to see what their response is.

And this is a service they charge $29 for, for a completely
fucked 'service', 3 times what everyone else charges.

Nothing to do with IKEA, the problem is with the fucked TeamGE/Toll/IPEC

I have just rung IKEA and they are telling TeamGE/Toll/IPEC
to attempt to deliver again and if that fails again, it will be
returned to IKEA and IKEA will send it using Australia Post.

The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other
people's money. #Sir Ronald Millar

On March fourteenth, in the year of our Lord. Eighteen eighty three
Karl Marx made his most important contribution to mankind...
He died

There is no difference between communism and socialism,
except in the means of achieving the same ultimate end:
communism proposes to enslave men by force,
socialism - by vote.
It is merely the difference between murder and suicide
#Margaret Thatcher
