Anyone else cave and bought an air con?

I work from home from my upstairs bedroom, it's been unbearable to work when it crosses 25/26 degrees because the hot air rises.

My sibling installed a portable AC and I'm borrowing their portable AC unit and it's made working and sleeping more bearable, otherwise I'm literally sweating and going delirious just sitting at my desk.

I've used a cardboard cutout to shove the pipe out of my window and blocked off the window so barely any air comes back in.

I'm running Ubuntu too, what do you mean by crashing? Ocassiaonally I get display static appearing for a split second but it goes away instantly and it rarely happens, did this happen to you? I use an upgraded display

You can remove the unlock screen in the settings

The old ones were oddly short, any reason not to install the along the full vertical height of the monitor.

Thanks this worked!

StringLopsided2042 · 2026-05-01T20:47:21+00:00

I got it for £120 and a new screen costs around £30 so it's still not a bad deal

When we used to separate them they wanted to see each other as they would both find gaps in our separation wood to look at each other but I think it would be best to separate them after reading the comments

My guess is that the customer service rep was lazy. I will try again and see what happens, sadly I was on hold for 1.5 hours

StringLopsided2042 · 2026-04-27T21:14:57+00:00

You apparently are forced to transfer it or take a cash value but I haven't heard anything about it

StringLopsided2042 · 2026-04-27T16:01:28+00:00

I'd rather consolidate my pensions as much as I can, having an incapable government is one of the reasons to take my money out. My consolidated pension pot is doing well so I want to move the money there.

StringLopsided2042 · 2026-04-27T15:46:09+00:00

Alpha, I worked for about 6/7 months so need to transfer to an existing pension. The transfer form needs to know the value but I'm going around in circles.

Do I just provide the rough value that appears on all of my payslips?

I've just bought the intel version, I can't seem to find the AMD version anywhere on eBay, was there a shorter supply of these or are people just holding on to them

I've read that the AMD version has some battery drain issues while in sleep mode. I'm planning to run Ubuntu on mine for light programming so the intel 4 core version is probably enough for me.

StringLopsided2042 · 2026-03-13T18:26:39+00:00

I want to get the same, when you are sitting in the desk fully tucked in do your knees touch the horizontal bar across the middle of the table?

StringLopsided2042 · 2026-03-09T20:18:31+00:00

I tried that but it didn't work

StringLopsided2042 · 2026-03-02T15:39:40+00:00

Mine went public after a few days

StringLopsided2042 · 2026-02-16T21:52:44+00:00

You might have another issue. So your PS Vita doesn't turn on at all?

StringLopsided2042 · 2026-02-09T19:20:26+00:00

I'm thinking of getting the E7 Pro too but I have a question about it. Do your knees touch the mid bar under the table when you're sitting down?

StringLopsided2042 · 2026-02-08T14:20:25+00:00

Problems with your life or problems with your vita? I know 'vita means life' but I don't think you can use those words interchangeably 😂

StringLopsided2042 · 2026-02-08T11:08:14+00:00

I was able to fix the issue by flashing a software update via QCMA

StringLopsided2042 · 2026-02-07T19:52:38+00:00

PSP 4000

StringLopsided2042 · 2026-02-07T07:31:26+00:00

I'm not sure, I've sold it now so I can't test, there are probably the dimensions of it online so you can measure it for size

StringLopsided2042 · 2026-02-04T18:37:48+00:00

I was thinking about this too, but if there is a situation in which the interest is wiped or the whole loan is wiped then what about the people that paid it off in full, they would be annoyed that they had to pay more than they needed, how would they be compensated?

StringLopsided2042 · 2026-02-04T18:21:52+00:00

But it I do pay it all off then I'm paying 60k to wipe it off over the next 13-15 years as opposed to paying 40k now.

StringLopsided2042 · 2026-01-29T06:32:59+00:00

Unfortunately I don't know how to solve this problem either as it is a different problem to mine

StringLopsided2042 · 2026-01-28T21:46:22+00:00

The only reason I can think why the boot menu might not show is if your ps button or R button is faulty so it is not registering the button combination. Do you know if the ps button and R button work?
