  1. Hello, I have a pretty good PC (i7 7700K, GTX1080) and a 55inch 4K Sony Bravia TV. So I hooked up my PC to my TV via HDMI and the experience was great, was getting solid 60 FPS at 4K resolution. I played few games like Destiny 2, Forza 7, Battlefield 1, Rise of the Tomb Raider and the xbox one controller support was top notch. Ofc, the only problem is that, to move my PC back and forth from my study to the lounge is such a pain in the behind, disconnecting all the wires, carry a 15kg box around the house etc, u know the drill. So what do you guys think I should do? I was actually contemplating on just getting that new xbox one x to play all the single player games in 4K ultra settings, I know it's pricey ($650 something?) but it still beats having to disconnect/connect a bunch of wires back and forth every day (plus I have most games on XPA so it's crossplatform purchase). But I was just wondering if there's a cheaper way to do this? Something like, extending a long HDMI to the lounge (but what about the controller reception?) ? or use some type of streaming device like steam-link, but what about the bandwidth for 4K60? I didn't find the right solution from the internet. References: http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=2678305 best advertisements

    Help Into Starting Programming

    Hello, I am an accountant, but i just finished few months course in Java. I think i was pretty good at it (if not best in group), i really like it. But there we were learning only language, solving problems etc. We didnt learn anything about how to apply that knowledge into building real applications or anything, so i am here hoping to get some advice how to upgread from there. I have few ideas of building few accounting related applications, i have pretty clear idea how to do it i would make it work for sure, but i know nothing of compatibility issuses (how to make it work anywhere), how to organise good code, how to test it, what databases to use, security, know nothing about servers, java versions.... Is it possible to even try building app with my knowledge? Can you recommend some reading that would not be overkill for me that would just help me making first usefull apps that would not be mess or am i lost case? I didn't find the right solution from the internet. References: http://www.dreamincode.net/forums/topic/407320-help-into-starting-programming/ animated infographics
