Is there a particular reason for you to use a dumbphone? You dont like the lack of security caused by google apps or?

I tried laptops but cant get into using them. I only mess around with computers when im at home so i dont get any advantage of a mobile unit. I like the option to tinker around with the hardware the most on desktops. Using all sorts of different monitors and pheriberals makes them very versatile. Putting a pc together is a very fun thing to do also. Get the best bang for the buck on desktops. Loads of more performance available. No psu limits and no limits on cooling. Tons of options to add storage etc. The list is long

I have two desktops at home and one laptop and one hybrid laptop/tablet. We do a lot of work training and meetings on Microsoft teams and I prefer to use the desktops for that. My computers are all Dell. The only things I did to the desktops was add extra ram, ssd and card readers . Everything is win 10 and not compatible for the free 11upgrade. So 11 can go get fkd!  Is it worth buying a load of new gear if 10 does everything I need? |

Currently waiting for raptorlake to come on sale. Will build a new rig for the next 5 years. Been trying to cycle out the cpu, mobo, ram , psu and case every 5 years. Will go for a 13700k and try out how ddr5 is. Current build is a corsair h100x cooled i7 8700k, 32gb 3600mhz ddr4, 750gb of nvme storage and a 1tb sata ssd for games. Just went from a gtx 1080ti to a rtx 3080 that will be in the new build also.

I've seen that workaround mentioned and In light of my job, I cannot afford anything unofficial on my computers. It's not fair  I can't even watch p.orn.If I go on big knockers.com administration will probably know.
