Work - one workstation and a personal netbook (eventually for when we lose direct internet access). At home, laptop, desktop and a NUC as a server/linux desktop.
2 old laptops (core 2), a early atom mini itx in a normal desktop case, and a PIV mini ITX/space heater.
oh, and a pi, which used to be where I put my backups.
@Qcom I have this idea for a suitcase that is basically a LAN in a box. You turn up, plug it in and everyone just jacks in to the convenient ports on the side. Instant network!
@Qcom I really like it. But it does take a lot of time up.
My advice? Join a newbie friendly corp after finishing the tutorial missions. They're generally very generous with ships and you really only learn the game by exploding.

Microsoft is silently preparing your PC for Windows 10 (not very silent it is an Optional update) "have discovered that the update is actually a notifier and installer for the Windows 10 update, thus allowing for the nagging to upgrade to begin as soon as the new OS becomes commercially available." from unreliable site theinquirer.net/inquirer/news/2402948/…
The update can cause a few minor issues besides being a legit sales tool. Could be I (myself) am reaching EOLU for windows 7. End of life of updates, as they start stuffing the old os with updates that are "not made exactally for it, but are tailored to work with it" Sorry no better way to say "accidentally can mess stuff up", pushing you into the new system.
Hey microsoft your updates that are really for 8.1 screw up my _______ , what you going to do about it? MS: Laugh
The homeowner has that one, even though i can sneak off a print to it via the local net. He thinks it is fine. It is ok now that it is new with fresh gripping rollers. he Paid around $125-150
Elements is baitware, completly sufficient for any regular consumer to do work in it, but entirely inadequite when trying to do anything "special" with it, or requiring much control of everything.
Element baitware packages , can often be updated , for less than the cost of the whole real package. Sort of weird, but it is one way that you do not lose much , when you find that elements is to elementry.
Because elements is simpler, with less manuel and mind numbing features, it is a lot easier to get started and used to thier (crappy) programs, before having to update and live with this training forever.
Would it make sense to buy Elements? I see many designers use Photoshop and offer project files .PSD which I am still able to open with Paint.NET but I wonder about support...
Currently I need Adobe Lightroom for photo enhancement and Photoshop for better PSD support.
Check the price for upgrading from elements to full on the adobee site. most times you can buy or get elements for free (with some hardware) then update it to full , for less than the cost of a full package (minus a student package). . . . because it is bait , much like if you signed on to get spammed by some seller , you see the "deals" as they come out.
If you are going to really get into photo processing, or getting paid for it, there Will be some missing stuff in Elements that you must have , even if you do not need it today. They specifically pull features to create the crippled package for that purpose.
As far as lightroom, i have never needed it, photoshop has every feature that anyone would require for photo filtering and manipulation. I have processed over 20K pictures and never required it.
(adobee is not a charity :-) you should see thier buildings, and in one of the most expencive places for property/real estate, someone pays for that. (other than me)
Sure, it can be that way. Elements = Crippled package , that is cheaper, and does most stuff , Applies to all crippled adobee packages. Photshop = Really for original creation , and will do every filtering and photo manipulation needed Lightroom = Added piece of junk that does some of the same processing that photoshop does, but not really designed for original creation
He offers .PSD and I wonder if I should really consider Elements to work on existing projects and photo processing. Plus get compatibility as we both work with Adobe software.
I do not really create designs from scratch but edit delivered projects. Elements, texts, sizes, enlarging - downsizing etc.
Maybe I should consider Elements to be on same with level designers?
Wacks boris upside head (bonk) He could use photoshop, or gimp 2, or he could use corel , or the other 3 top photo programs. But if he learned photoshop, then he is doomed to continue using it. If it is the "elements" version, then someday he will be upgrading.
Simple processing without , re-painting and clone painting , and texts can be done in XnView and it is 10X faster for some filtering.
@Boris_yo yes banner type things, and large texts, and cartoonish elements is more towards vector grafics. but even a strict vector artist will still have a photo filtering program.
@Boris_yo adobee files go round and round between the programs, for the most part. Perfect example is WTF opening of a PDF in photoshop.
But remember that elements is Crippled packages, designed to force you into upgrading to the full package, sooo when you start to "need" then you gonna bleed $$$
@Boris_yo That is right you can even stuff adobee plugs into xnview, but I never bother. The real work of simple filtering is all about filter matrixes, "Math High On Pixels" Those filter items are in loads of things, because they have been around for 20 years.
@Boris_yo wacks boris upside head again. The package is Photoshop elements (crippled) and Premiere elements , "elements" is not one of the programs. It is still photoshop
Seems like Adobe does not offer good help and this guy is not aware of tutorials that are supposed to exist for PE?
"Just Say NO!
This is a real horrid program. If you have a pro who can teach you it may be OK but trying to learn on your own with only their "Help" is as worthless as all other "Help" options you've ever attempted to use. I want to do some of the most basic, minimal adjustments, no layers or anything fancy and it's completely worthless. I've tried multiple times over the last couple years but it never has worked for me.
@Psycogeek You mean Elements and Elements Premiere are 2-in-1?
Once you go through the hell of learning how to use adobee programs, then it begins to look easy. it never was, but now your stuck.
That is why if your a student you can buy these programs very cheaply, once you learn them, you will likely be using them and paying for them again and again.
If it is the money that your worried about, and you have not used Photshop before. then get your hands on the (psudo) free photoshop package, and start using it. it is only crippled in that it is 32bit (access to huge memory).
that package is only a 340Meg download, it comes direct from adobee, includes bridge and (i think) lightroom. just no support, and (thank god) no more horrid activation garbage.
Raw really isnt that special, seeing that BMPs themselves can be fully uncompressed all the colors all the pixels, and even 16bit per color. It was an added "standard" when we already had 45 others, but it is just that another standard that (in this case) has all the data still.
When it gets to really specialy file items, it is usually the propriatary program file saves that are barely compatable between versions of them.
Trying to stuff into the file all the data , plus all the ways it is assembled, masked, layered, and all that stuff. that is where compatability is just generally, programatically difficult.
Free photoshop is around this link adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/… But it is not really free , it just has been made free :-) but the idea still is that you once had purchaced it.
@Boris_yo did you have a problem with the server ? or is it not available in your country? It may very well be english only. can you work all in english?
Ohh, yea, dropping the server support, and activations garbage, and giving up on it, was because it was a PITA, I was a PITA :-)
gizmodo.com/5973730/… see ender89s comments (in the comments) for a full install problems guide. Which also indicates that installing it on windows 8 may not work at all (without VM)
@Boris_yo I have a real actual licence for it. As for anybody else, it is still baitware, you cannot use it to get upgraded to CS7 or whatever it is this week, and people always have to have the latest stuff, so they will eventually buy.
I wonder how it looks on a 4K screen running in the full res. i would bet the text and icons are way too small and do not size up .
If it doesnt work in win8 without a VM, then again they will be buying someday. Death Taxes, Google ads and paying adobee , all just part of life.
@Psycogeek I am still on W7 Enterprise. I noticed I started getting a lot less updates as support is critical updates only now. I will be getting W8 but only with new laptop...

Nope. Not touching that shit with a ten foot pole.
@Bob I used it until the 30-day trial expired, then stopped using it. It has the same limited collection that all the "woodwork" streaming services have. Spotify is a significant cut above those.
(woodwork streaming services, per my definition, are the umpteen different streaming services that came late to market, long after Spotify was popular)
it's like the music cartels have the "standard package" of a couple million songs they sell to any Joe Blow CEO who wants a new streaming service, then they have the much-enhanced package with lots of individual deals, etc. for Spotify
@Bob at least I never paid them anything... and their streaming app, like all music apps, still cuts out occasionally on BT on my Note 4 :/
Hey, at least the iPhone 6 never drops out over bluetooth (I've never heard anyone complain about it, anyway). Can't say the same about the past 4 Android smartphones I've owned.

I am trying to download a bunch of images but I cannot use things like Downloadthemall, as the files root folder (/shared) is blocked, so you have to go each sub-file individually to access them. They are all named in a recursive manner though, so is there some tool/way to get all these files using a recursive grab? i.e. shared/images/image_headers/23_0.jpg, shared/images/image_headers/24_0.jpg, shared/images/image_headers/25_0.jpg.
@Bob Android makes little tweaks to Bluedroid every release, but they seem to alter the character of the problem, rather than fixing it.
With 5.0.1, the sudden loud "shotgun" pops I was getting are gone completely, but I still get fairly regular "dropouts" lasting <1sec, and occasionally the audio stream experiences what I can only describe as what happens to a carrot when a master chef chops it up as fast as he can
like, a dropout every 5 ms, then audio for 5-10 ms, then dropout for another 5 ms, repeat for 2-3 seconds
It bugs me that the Homegroup icon will randomly show up on the Windows desktop now and then. Just happened today. Had to do that hacky fix someone posted on this site, where you uncheck and then recheck some checkbox option in Folder Options.
I wonder why this happens.
@Bob My old Lenovo Thinkpad had amazing cooling. It barely got warm. My new laptop also has great cooling but the heat shielding means I can still feel it get somewhat warm. It's not terribly uncomfortable though. It pushes heat out very efficiently.
