Re: 2024 F1 News and Prediction League

A tad late on parade sorry - just a few hours away from Free Practice and the start of the F1 Weekend! Sadly Red BS and Crashappen will bounce back no doubt as the track really does suit them - and let's be fair, I can't see the petulant one suffering mechanical issues on the bounce. I remain hopefu...

Re: The Recommended Movies Thread

Because 'Netflix and popcorn' only viewers will think it's crap Now, now.. Calm down :wink: , I quite enjoy Netflix but will give "Undergods" a go after reading the review. As to "The Beautiful Game" with Bill Nighy.... Meh, not one for me and I did struggle to get through it (2...

Re: American Sports Page

There's a fight in every ice hockey game played. Mostly minor and lasts 30 seconds. Blame the Canadians, they started it all. :laugh: Well, a slap or two after being steamrolled into the hoardings fair enough, but the whole Pantomime of throwing your gloves to the ice and dancing around just 2 seco...

Re: American Sports Page

I must be missing the point here if indeed there even is one. It truly is more Pantomime than Sports - the "Hell Yeah!", "This is what Hockey's all about", "USA,USA,USA...." comments bouncing around the Arena (and of course X) just add to the farce.... I mean seriously,...

Re: Looking For New Tablet

Thanks guys. I'm currently looking at Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ 5G 8/128GB (top end) and Samsung Galaxy S12+ Tablet {12GB RAM + 512GB ROM} Smart Tablet (lower end). Both seem to easily meet my very modest needs, plus an awful lot more. Would any 'expert' like to comment? I am a virtual novice on Andro...

Re: Looking For New Tablet

No, because they're used for aircraft documentation, the port is locked anyway, they're updated through a secure server. Basically you can access the company intranet and documentation and nothing else. TBH, I was expecting that reply - my company and the devices we are provided with are the same. ...

Re: Looking For New Tablet

Sorry I didn’t realise you were talking about external storage devices - that would obviously be different!! Zero issue DB - a standard connection is the way to go, my bitch has simply been that I can't add external storage (via an adaptor) to my Lenovo device. A royal pain in the arse if I want to...

Re: Looking For New Tablet

Much easier to buy a new cable rather than an adapter Pretty sure the point is being missed here..... But, going to this - Do you own a C-Connection Storage Device or a Standard USB Storage Device for external storage? What would you use therefore, an Adaptor or Cable? Anywho, if BB is happy with A...

Re: Looking For New Tablet

We use Ipads for documentation at work and even the new ones of those use C type connectors. I believe pretty much all devices do so these days. Just explaining my issues that I've experienced with the Lenovo - i.e. not recognising external drives/those via USB to C type Adaptors.... Have you used ...

Re: Looking For New Tablet

I think just research the whole C-Port issue BB and make sure you can make full use of the Mini SD-Card. My Lenovo isn't truly reliable at that even. I purchased a C-Port adaptor that had all, USB/SD/Mini SD etc, to use to connect an external drive, but was simply not recognised. I later found that ...

Re: Looking For New Tablet

This one is close to my heart actually - as so much has changed. The likes of Samsung and iPad have major competition. Like you, I want the absolute basics just for travel (or hospital these days :cry: :roll: ) - access to Email, eBooks, perhaps Word/Excel equivalent, but mainly "Entertainment&...

Re: TV series worth watching/downloading

Just watched the 1st series of Gavin & Stacey on iPlayer. Way behind the times on this BBC comedy drama, but I'm enjoying it. One of the characters, Bryn, is undoubtedly based on my mate pharvey - the likeness is too close to be a coincidence. :cheers: :cheers: Tw@t..... And now just for your i...

Re: Premier League 2023-24

The Champions League is expanding to 36 clubs next season, an extra 4 clubs. This could mean an extra place for the Premiership team finishing 5th, but this depends on how well this years's English teams perform in the Champ League. And that has exhausted both my knowledge and my patience... :thumb...
