F Chrome now as it is doing a lot of things you really do not want in the background.
Brave is basically Chrome but a lot more secure and does not use as much bandwidth or memory.


Firefox is still going strong with a lot of features.

If you like your browser like your OS trey  Sigma OS.

I am no EV fan but I think in some use cases the small ones for pootling about local-ish, which is all a lot of people do then it works for that I guess.

my gf has a hybrid golf... in the summer it'll do 24 miles on a charge, 18 in the winter when you run the heater...

but... charger at home and work... so she can go months without putting any petrol in

it's perfect for her (quick too)

Brave/Firefox/Chrome

I find it's easier to have adblockers a go go on the aforementioned 2, and if I need to read or do anything that blocks that, chrome.

Modern quality standards in most things is laughably poo, old Japanese brands from which I'd expect quality (Nissan and the aforementioned Mitsubishi) have been merged into https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renault%E2%80%93Nissan%E2%80%93Mitsubishi_Alliance post millennium, for me it's downhill from there.

99% of cars regardless of how they're powered all look soulless arse to me, roads are awash with SUVs with all the poise and grace of Mr Blobby. :lol:

I set up a "cctv wall" at work, has 4x 32 screens, really want 6 but the pc running them (i5-2500k, my old system) is struggling to run those full quality

decided to upgrade it... half way through realised the upgrade would make it better than my system

so scrapped that plan, ordered a load of bits for myself.... then realised I wasn't far short or a full system so might as well build a full new system

so now I've got...

CORE i9-14900K
4x8G CorsVengLPX DDR4 3600 C18
Samsung 990 PRO 1TB M.2 PCIe 4.0 NVMe
ASRock Z790 PG Lightning/D4
CORSAIR RM750e FMod Gol
NOCTUA NH-D15 DUAL RADIATOR
Cooler Master MasterCase SL600M Black Edition

didn't bother with a gfx card, they're all fortunes, I hardly game, and I already have a 1080ti which laughs at anything I do


but.... I've been sick as a dog, it's all still in it's delivery boxes at the bottom of the stairs for a week now :-(

I just say to go the better PSU now because when you do upgrade the Graphics card it is not another thing on top again and having do all the wires yet again.
If with the age of the current machine you may as well mark the PSU as a non skimp component and get one that is of the new standard and will last.
