As per the title, anyone used these before? Seem to have good pricing on a monitor i want, but just want to see everyone else's experiences. Thanks

Ahh, right OK, so THAT'S how you force a file to open in Leafpad with admin rights. I'd been having issues trying to edit the files mentioned as no writ permissions and couldn't work out how to do it via terminal. (I ended up using a different method, running "gksudo" from terminal and running PCMANFM (which then opened up file manager with root, then browsing to file, right click and opening with leafpad) using that i managed to get get-apt update to work, but still can't seem to get the browser to work (though I have now downloaded firefox and configured proxy within that!) Which one would be needed to get other apps that need the internet to work? Thanks

The config file inside where, sorry?

I can't get it to work either.........ITS SO ANNOYING! neither get-apt or general web browsing

revival.... @AButters did this work? In the same boat here right now, and no linux experience!

Err, dont search amazon for

That's the way im leaning......... although personally i feel i still have a lot to offer with the bat, just need to get into the swing of it.....so to speak.

CRICKET UPDATE. (9th June) Went in to bat at 39.5 overs of a 40 over game, hit a single. Got my first bowling of the season in, Very wobbly start, delivered a few wides (about 12 or so) , but got 9 overs in, and got a wicket. bowled them out and won by about 20 runs. This weekend just gone Got 4 well placed (IMO) singles at the crease, then got out to a very slow ball that caught me out. (got bowled) Opened the bowling (which was a shock to me), and ended up taking 3 wickets (1 bowled, two caught by fielders) Ended up bowling them all out when they needed 2 runs to win off their last 5 balls! TL-DR Chuffed with bowling, batting needs a lot of work!

I appear to be in a bit of a lull with games/gaming at the minute. Can't seem to sit and play a story based game for more than half hour without losing focus. anyone else get like that? My attention span only seems to be able to cope with stuff like fifa, rocket league & fortnite right now!

PUBG has appeared to take a giant leap backwards on xbox (dont @ me!). Just as they seemed to get a lot of stuff ironed out, they changed the way buildings/textures load in to the game (some form of AI is used to predict where people are likely to go in a given situation, and the game will load accordingly, learning as it goes) but the game seems to be getting worse the longer this is going on, not better. I landed in a set of buildings the other day, nothing would load, during which time another person also landed, had their buildings load, found and shot me. (I had been on the ground for about a minute!) Another game i spawned in under some stairs, got stuck, and was left to die in the storm. Also as (i assume anyway) some form of aplogy for the troubles, they gave every xbox user 2 crates to open. both of mine contained dupes! some apology ha

Got meself a Switch, got Odyssey and the Mario Rabbids game...

Could still be a pill, just not oral delivery.... on topic I go on the app from time to time if im in a place where i know pokemon appear (Tesco car park, for example) but other than that, generally not.

got the 3t... hmm.

Anyone with Oneplus's experienced "burn-in" on the screen? if my screen is all one colour or full screen (no notification bar), I can make out silhouettes of the notification tray etc...

Must remember to comment on this in 2020

Or is it Green storm and brain needle............

*1 year later* Is nextbase still then general go-to? or are there others that have surpassed it? Thanks

Looking into getting a fairly basic fitness tracker. (heart rate, steps, sleep counter etc) See loads for around the 20-30 pound mark, many brands i've never heard of. Anyone got any recommendations? I assume FitBit are the best ones, but i dont think my budget can stretch that far.

Took a cricket ball to my heel at training last night, hobbling around today! >:[ hours drive to our game tomorrow D:

Noooo the odd bit being i ran over one of my xbox friends, who just happened to be playing pubg at the same time, on the same map as me, without us being in a group.

Odd moment of the year award. Playing PUBG, driving a buggy, nail someone with it, they go flying, so i recorded it for teh LULZ. Watched the clip back, turns out i ran over one of my xbox friends who was online (and often play online with, they come over to my house for gaming nights and that), but we weren't in the same group or anything. We just so happened to get put into the same Map on duo, and I ended up running him over!

As per the cool things thread... Played my first cricket match Saturday, and we won, just, after posting a seemingly measly 69 runs, but we bowled them out for 65, so all is well (Although they were at 27-0, and at that point we thought the game was beyond us) I happened to bat against their best bowler, which didn't help my nerves, edged behind for a single, and then after a few more deliveries sent the ball back to the bowler for a dolly of a catch (those cricket balls don't fly off the bat like tennis balls do....) Due to the other teams' quick start, and their subsequent collapse, i unfortunately didn't get the chance to bowl (which makes sense, me getting my eye in bowling on a wicket for the first time probably would've cost us a few runs) Hopefully get some more outdoor wicket experience at training tomorrow (The match was my first time playing outside, everything else was indoor nets previously)

Diablo 3 was good fun.

Just bought Diablo 3, on recommendation of a friend. Never touched a Diablo game....

Update for anyone interested. Should be playing my first game on Saturday! Had my best training session last week (imo), bowling seems to be getting a lot more consistent (although it's still taking me a good 10-15 minutes of bowling to find my range) Batting in the nets quite well, though I seem to struggle to attack a fast ball, much better at defending (which isn't my style!)
