    iPad app to help play Piano songs

    Have you tried Yousician? Not the cheapest and might not be exactly what you mean, but it can listen along.

    Lila Connect - VX Fibre 1gig - Stoke on Trent

    Edit: ok so I don’t think that any of the above is what caused my problem - it’s now not working with a direct connection either… SDD shows a green connection, as does the router but I’m getting 100% packet loss when I ping out.

    Spec me a 55” 4K TV please!

    Currently trying to put together a list of TV’s to look out for that could fall in to my budget of £700 come Black Friday! Looking for 50 - 55” screen size, and will mainly be used for streaming (some 4K, some HD) and PS5 gaming. Any help appreciated!

    First Build In A While - Console Switch

    You’d go for the higher wattage though? Don’t necessarily want RGB although I appreciate two of my components have them :D. For the case I was looking for something small. Was thinking a cube initially although not sure about cooling issues and changing the motherboard?

    First Build In A While - Console Switch

    Hi, I haven’t built a PC in years, but with the upcoming release of next gen consoles I’m wondering whether a PC might be a better option... Looking to spend no more than £500 - already have an RX580 from an experiment with an eGPU on my Mac, and I’ve got a 500GB SSD too... How does this look...

    Bluetooth Keyboard & Mouse Switch

    Hi, Does anyone know if the above exists? At the moment I have two machines on my desk, that I want to control using the same Bluetooth keyboard and mouse (not at the same time). Currently I have to disable Bluetooth on one machine and enable it on the other, in order to switch the pairing of...

    eBay Selling Question

    Zero, hence my paranoia... Only joined in 2016 too. Pretty sure that it's a scam, I was more asking about when I can offer it to the second highest bidder etc...

    eBay Selling Question

    I've listed an item on eBay which sold last night. The winning bidder contacted me immediately asking me to send my PayPal email address or a request for payment via PayPal. I thought that this was strange as payment should have been handled through eBay, so I replied saying so. The buyer...

    Bizarre network issue

    Haven't tried Ethernet although I can. Not sure what resetting my router would do (in terms of lost settings, I'm assuming that it will just return to the state when I got it, not lose any of the Virgin details?)

    Bizarre network issue

    I have a strange issue with my MBP. My WiFi connection to my Virgin Superhub is awful - trying to browse the web whilst connected to either 5G or 2G results in slow page loads, drop outs or hanging. My first thought was that we need a replacement router. The strange part is that no other...

    Golf GTI Mk6 vs Mk7

    Cheers guys, looks like I'll be holding out for a Mk 7! As above, anything in particular that I should keep an eye out for in terms of optional extras?

    Golf GTI Mk6 vs Mk7

    I suppose your last bit was kind of my question - is the Mk 7 that much better to save the extra for? Any must have extras I should look out for, for both the 6 & 7?

    Golf GTI Mk6 vs Mk7

    Can anyone give me a bit of a summary on the differences between the two? Is one a better car than the other? Looking at GTI's and obviously I can get the Mk 6 cheaper than the Mk 7 but can't really find out if there's anything I'd be missing out on? They also don't seem to look that...

    ASP.Net MVC filters

    Hi, I'm using MVC 5 and Entity Framework 6. Say I have a Cases controller with an Index action that returns all cases to an Index view, but then I wanted to implement a My Cases feature (e.g. where case assigned to == User.Identity.Name) how would you go about this? At the moment I've...

    Sony Bravia KDL 50 W829

    I use an app for iPhone called TV SideView which appears to be from Sony (but doesn't look like it!) which works well as a remote for this.

    The Apple Watch - who wants one?

    Does anyone know whether there would be any issue in buying a Watch from abroad? Obviously I may need to buy a different power adaptor, but what about warranty or configuration issues?

    View using Controller in Another App (ASP.Net)

    Creating a scaffolded Entity Framework controller does this by default though? Are you saying that this is wrong? So this is the default code in my scaffolded controller: [HttpPost] [ValidateAntiForgeryToken] public ActionResult Create([Bind(Include = "ID,ItemName,CreatedDate")] Item...

    View using Controller in Another App (ASP.Net)

    Sorry I probably made the method sound more complex than it actually was! It's mainly just checking the Model State and then adding the item to the database! However I do also queue some email sending methods via Hangfire (not sure if you're aware of it?) - these methods live in my...
