If you're managing team projects, then it could be worth looking at something like Jira, we've just moved over to it from Basecamp and it fits us better (though it took a while to really get it going).

I also suffer from headaches after using some monitors for a while. Only a week or so ago, after much reading of reviews, I bought 2 of Dell's P2314H monitors (based on this review . I went with the 23" version as it was on offer at the time and they're the same resolution. I've only used them ...

I find that a lot of people who are this easily insulted tend to come from the USA... Yep. I'm from the USA and I agree, the percentage of people who wear their feelings on their shoulders is far too high. Embarrassingly high. When did people switch from wearing them on the sleeve to wearing them o...

Apple's pretty far behind on OpenGL support, what are they, on version 2.1? Maybe 3? I think 4.2 is the current one

The current version of OS X has 3.2 and Mavericks will have 4.1

I don't know how far Android has come in recent years, but iOS actually has some pretty decent accessibility options such as low contrast/inverted colours, screen zoom, screen reader style voice over mode, baked in. It can also work with some Bluetooth braille displays. I know some people who bought...

If that's the master socket you shouldn't mess with it as it's technically Openreach property so leave any modifications until the line is active.

I use the vacuum, though some say it can cause static. It may not be the wisest choice, but it's worked fine for me.

Compressed air's probably a safer option.

I'm looking forward to the forthcoming camera module. I'm hoping to get it setup as a mobile timelapse rig.

I did have some fun with the gpio pins too!

At work, we use LaCie big disks for external storage. They support Firewire 800 and multiple RAID modes.

Typically, last Thursday I bought the very same model for £105 ($160). (that does include all sales taxes)

I have no complaints with the drive itself though, it's a very nice drive (my first SSD and replacing a 5400rpm laptop drive).

Mac mini (2011 i5-2.3, 8GB), 11W idle, 16W playing local 1080p h264 video, 35W exporting the same video at 720p. Wifi was enabled throughout. <1W in standby (meter just reads 0W).

Some seem to suggest that this new wave of spam is committed not by spam-bots, but by actual human beings employed for pennies in places like China and India. I'm guessing there's not much TR can do about that besides killing them one by one. Is there a way to moderate the first few posts when some...

decided to distribute the boards through two second-rate British mom & pop type operations that obviously have never had to handle real site traffic (both sites crashed immediately upon launch) While I've admittedly never heard of Premier Farnell, you can hardly call RS Components a "mom &...

This was obviously intended to be a UK-only release, but the Raspberry Pi people didn't bother to tell anyone outside of the UK that this was the case. If they'd intended it to be a solely UK based launch, I don't think they'd have pulled the trigger at 6am GMT. I'm in the UK and I didn't get one e...

I'm not sure it was *the* first but one of the first R rated (or 18 cert as they're known here) was Trainspotting and I still think it's a pretty decent film.

If you really only need to encrypt a file with strong encryption you maybe able to use something as simple as WinZIP as it supports AES-256.

Earlier this year I bought Hot Cross Buns from a major super market on the 7th of January. Their only supposed to be available on Easter Friday. I'm not religious but is it that hard to sell the fruit bun without the cross for the rest of the year? I'm pretty sure you can buy them all year round in...

If gaming isn't important, it might be worth looking at the Matrox M9188, an octo-display graphics card http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/products/graphics_cards/m_series/m9188pciex16/?productTabs=1 No idea how much it costs though! I think they're the thick end of £1,500. I'd just like to have eno...

The reality spectrum goes: The Wire -----> The Shield ------> 24

I liked the first 2 seasons of 24 but got bored by the 3rd.

It'll be interesting to see it, though it sounds more like a cheap laptop without a keyboard than a true tablet.

I really enjoy watching The Shield . I've got all 7 seasons but so far have only watched the first 5 due to lack of time (going on past form, I know I'll watch an entire season in one sitting — again). The Wire will be my next one on my list. Other than that, Spaced , Black Books , The Mighty Boosh ...
