i mentioned the iMac, simply because traditionally Apple products have been better suited to editing still and moving pictures, and audio. (things that interest me)
This may, or may not, be due to the likes of Photoshop and DaVinci software first being written for Macs.

...of course,...

Sorry, woody1 for some reason I mistook you for Willendure. I realise that is unforgivable.

My current setup:
27" "all-in-one" desktop, mostly for photo/video editing.
24" monitor connected to client laptop.

Plenty of options for all-in-one,...

Why not just get her a desktop, or re-purpose your old server that you are decommissioning?...

Morning all
The overnight precipitation was heavy, but eased around 6am, and by half way round our walk it had stopped. Now just overcast an murky.

It wasn't raining on our walk this morning!
Yellow warning of rain come into effect at lunchtime today.

Dinner is prepped, a variation on Ottolenghi chicken with preserved lemons. Seed bread is prepped, to go in the oven at the same time as the chicken tagine.
Last night’s film entertainment was “Don’t Look Up” from five years ago. Funny, but also a lot of similarities to US politics right...

Morning all
Misty and drizzling, it appears that the heaviest rain has been while I was asleep. The morning walk will wait about an hour to see if this clears.

Things that make a difference:
1. What country is the contract from (I did quite a bit of work in Europe on Swiss contracts)
2. What country is the work going to be done? (You may say it’s WFH, but is there any on-site expected?)
3. What currency will you be raising the invoices...

Drove to Canada today and got home with still over 120 miles range, possibly helped by putting the car into self drive mode (except you can’t call it that, and you can’t let go of the steering wheel for more than 15 seconds, but there’s no need to steer, speed up or slow down, the car does it all....

Morning all
Sunshine and some blue skies out, for a change.
A very loud squall blew through about 21:00 yesterday, for a moment I thought it was a Chinook landing on the roof of the house.
Must fill the bid feeders today.

[WTFH]

It's what you voted for, you are completely in agreement with "the self-appointed Brussels bureaucracy".
You wanted the UK to do badly, the UK is doing badly, you're blaming the EU and Labour for the results of your choices....

TFIF, etc.
Heavy rain overnight, but the clouds were disappearing as we went out earlier, and it's now clear skies.

[WTFH]

So, the headline of the article is basically "Positive things are happening, no thanks to Labour who are responsible for all debt and should hang their heads in shame" and then a few paragraphs down "People reacted childishly to Liz Truss' brilliant budget and it's the people's fault...

[WTFH]

It's the Telegraph, their demographic is those with multiple properties or those aspiring to have multiple properties. House prices going up means those people see their investments going up. The fact that higher house prices pushes those renting or wanting to get on the property ladder into debt or...

Walk was successfully accomplished in the dry. There's a slither of sunshine below some very dark clouds the look like the amber warning may be coming into force before its current 3pm time.
Bumped into the plumber while out walking. He was telling me that during the worst of the weather on Monday...

[WTFH]

Morning all a slow start here, just about to go out for a walk...

[WTFH]

Good. Maybe contractors will get back to doing a professional working day for each client, rather than billing multiple clients for doing very little. Gives the rest of us a bad name....

[WTFH]

Not sure what planet you are on, I did not say it was free, but I DO know the answer as to the capex costs to the host and the opex costs to the end client, and it’s NOT heavily subsidised.
I gave the example of John Lewis, because I thought it would be something people could relate to. I would...
