An Artic Z2 Pro monitor stand. Should have bought one years ago, so much better than the stand which came with my monitor.

Now I just need to tidy the cables a bit and actually get around to wiring in the CCTV the 2nd monitor is really there for.

 

my 20 year old dremel tool died on friday got this seems way way to light compared to my old wired one and the led is flimsy and not internally powered, but the no wires means i can use it in alot places i couldnt before. oh and when i opened it it had that hospital disenfectant smell which i dont think any tool i ever got smelt like

 

Doom Eternal PS4, it’s everything I had hoped it would be, immense fun.

 

Mainly random cludge. Got Doom Eternal for PC and HL Alyx. Then 48 cans of cherry pepsi and some sweets for ma.

 

Persona 5 Royal PS4, not played a persona game before so I’m jumping in completely blind hoping it’ll be entertaining.

 

Rapha, no prices lets just say its never cheap


"Cargo" bib shorts, basically they have pockets


Core jersey (actually sensible price)



Subtle jumper

 

There.. was an accident.

I bought a hp thunderbolt G2 dock, 200w, with the appropriate cable to plug my worktop into and a 27" monitor because this 24" is doing my tree in.

 

R.I.P., 24" monitor...??

 

I have no idea what to do with it tbh. Dell 2408. It's been a solid monitor ever since I got it, but it's just too low a Res for me these days.

I might get weird with some grafana stuff when the homelab takes off, but until then it's just kind of.. there.

 

You 'mortally wounded' it, then...?

 

Oh, no, the "accident" was spending money although I spent about half of what I would have expected to spend if I hadn't been shopping around for these things for the last six months.

 

Ohh... that sort of accident, that usually gets you mortally wounded when someone else finds out that some serious GBH has been visited on the bank account.

 

a new dress for my old lady...

 

n/m... didn't read.

 

Need a new mouse (which will either be my primary or get demoted to the second rig) and there were/are a few Roccat Kone Pure Owl-Eye 'like new' in the warehouse.

Not bought from the warehouse before so we'll see how it goes but at just over £27 it's worth a go.

 

Orangebox Do task chair

Managed to pick one up locally for a great price, just needs a bit of TLC to neaten up the plastics

 

Snap. I don't have super discerning taste in mice, but I like it and about 4 months of primary use down the line it's been solid.
