People looking for laptops, have no fear, Tar is here.
Dell UK outlet has to be the best option, they put up new laptops every afternoon which great price reductions. It will say something like "scratch and dent" in all the descriptions but from querying people they should be perfect when you get them.
I went on to have a look and saw there are often discount codes on top of the sale prices, so tweeted delloutletuk and asked for a code, they duly obliged and put a 15% code up on the laptop range I wanted (An extra €100 off.).
Ended up buying an i7, 16gb ram, 256GB SSD, 1080p, and a 4GB radeon R7 m445 gfx card for €500 and sent it to parcel motel. It's €1000 on their site. Prices shown on site exclude vat until checkout btw and laptops are snapped up pretty fast.

TVs and laptops need to work on their naming conventions,or maybe not,aim is probably to get customer so confused they shell out on either the most expensive or the cheapest which is actually shite.so close to buying a MacBook pr,I know it's the wrong thing to do but can't bare wading through the specsheet for another Zyrtec x-555985kG(b model) 15" i5 (v6) 930p screen etc

Usually it went through the process of not recognising the charger unless I jiggled the connection a bit before eventually not recognising it at all. Then I got a new charger and that solved things for a while.
I think this fault is built-in to make you buy new chargers and batteries every year or so.
My current one (not actually a Dell but Alienware which Dell owns) I just have to leave plugged in to the AC, battery stays at 0%. Not bothered getting a new charger or anything.

Daylight savings is kicking my ass. I never used to complain about it coz I never had a regualr sleep cycle. Every day I was awake before 11am was a bastard anyway, what difference did an extra hour make?
Now that I've developed a regular sleep pattern, DST has fucked me up. Moar coffee plz."I can’t find anyone who agrees with what I write or think these days, so I guess I must be getting closer to the truth." - Hunter S. Thompson

Originally posted by Hitchhiker's Guide To... View PostNoticed the baby's eye colour has changed from my wife's brown-green to my dazzling blue over the last few weeks. That's a bit strange, to change your actual eyeballs? Simplest explanation is it's just a different baby, but Google suggests change in eye colour happens if you start with a minority colour. Anyone seen that before?
I would personally take the child to the Dr with a photo of what they eye colour was like. just get the little one checked out. Just don't accept it as normal cos some of us on the internet said so. If it was my child I would be concerned.
Where is Bubbleking when you need him!
Hmmm
"Most babies who have European ancestry have light-colored eyes before the age of one. As the child develops, melanocytes (cells found within the iris of human eyes, as well as skin and hair follicles) slowly begin to produce melanin.[citation needed] Because melanocyte cells continually produce pigment, in theory eye color can be changed. Most eye changes happen when the infant is around one year old, although it can happen up to three years of age."Last edited by MrsFlushdraw; 28-03-17, 12:48.

Easiest thing to do here is get a friend (or maybe even IT at work) with a working dell charger, borrow it and see what happens. Either your message goes away, buy a new charger and happy days or still the same issue -> get a new battery.
Like Tar said its most likely the battery that needs replacing. From experience with that kind of fault, it's usually about: 80% battery -> 15% charger -> 5% tough shit your motherboard is fucked and buy a new laptop. Most laptop batteries will usually burn out pretty quickly when they reach their expected number of usage cycles and last pissing time, IME 1-2 years. Chargers typically only break from being handled poorly or when cords get kinked from wrapping them incorrectly.

It be removable if opened up, I meant its designed be a comsummer battery change.
The power aspect of the charger is fine. It's suppling the required DC without issue.
But what ever way it communicates to the laptop that it's a dell is happening.
Gonna try shut down and disconnect and reconnect. To see if it charges a bit before it's is turned on to run what ever test it does.

Had a fairly annoying interaction with an estate agent there.
Sent him a mail about viewing a place in Limerick, he fires back immediately asking about references. I mailed him back and no response. A few hours later I mail him again to confirm the day I'll be around, also mention I want to take a look at another (more expensive place) he has available... Snap response - the (cheaper) place is gone, when do you want to look at the more expensive place?
This first place has been on Daft since 27th of January, and was updated yesterday morning as being still available. I mail him about it this morning and he makes no mention of it being gone, the instant I mention a more expensive place it flicks to 'let agreed' on daft.
Seems like literally unbelievable timing, as it would have to have been viewed and the letting agreed literally in the last three hours after two full months of inactivity.
I told him I wasn't too interested in the other place and thanks anyway. Seriously tilted.

I also had my bank ring me to go through a credit card application, same scenario and just called them back. A 40 minute phone call where I could have spent 10 mins max online manually entering the info. I even had to re-hash all of the info that was provided in the initial online application. FFS I can open a revolut account in less than 10 minutes and verify it. I can open a Number26 current account in the same time, all from my smartphone. Banks and so much B+M stuff are getting left behind.
If anyone out there is reading this and doesn't know any better. Please ensure that you NEVER give any personal information to any person who calls you. Always call them back using the number you have on record or from their website. Very often the call will be from a withheld or strange number. It could easily be someone trying to steal your personal info. It may seem trivial to most but you wouldn't believe the amount of people who give up their personal info without giving a second though to it.

Don't think too many people watch Poker Strat Videos anymore, but i watched this one on Twitch last night and thought it was very good.
The 3 founders of BitB Staking and high stakes crushers; €urop€an, pads1161 and Elmerixx reviewing €urop€an's €10k WCOOP chop from last year. They played from the bubble to the FT in this vid.

It was whoever was doing the sound that was to blame. Don't think he knew how bad it was until he got messages telling him to sneak out with the trumpetLast edited by Denny Crane; 28-03-17, 22:28.

Anybody, Ghostface i'm looking at you here, point me in the direction of the planning notices for that new Holiday Park they are building up in Longford?
Priced it there but they are giving me quantities of 1,300 lodges. Seems a bit mental for the arsehole of bogland
