My missus has enjoyed that a lot from me over the years, and I've had to bloody put up with airports and plane trips etc, it's not all bad but a real pain in the arse at times.

My wife used to travel regularly with her job OS and interstate
I would just go on magical mystery tours with her company car with my mate when she was gone ...free petrol
I would tell my clients I was busy for a week or so

500km rule in effect?
Not for me but a few colleagues over the years used to take advantage.
Took the week off anyway

I'm posting this looking at Big Footy on a sexy new curved 240Hz monitor that looks AMAZING!
But because I didn't read product descriptions properly and ordered the wrong adapter, I'm not looking at Big Footy on two sexy new curved 240Hz monitors. Correct part might not arrive for two weeks.
I am a dumbarse!
edit: this a first world problem
Correct part arrived quickly. And better yet, it works!
So now I have two, ah ha ha, two sexy curved 240Hz monitors, ah ha ha

I looked at those and prefer my 46" Sony with a 23" Acer off to the side. How big is the border? Are you going to do immersive gaming?

Nah, no immersive gaming (not unless you count Rise of Nations or Prison Architect as immersive). My old primary was slowly shitting itself and I was just looking for basically like for like. But given my "off to the side" monitor was an ancient 19" Dell ultrasharp I figured I'd buy 2 the same, at the same time. And the 27" Samsungs were on sale.
They're a "bezel less" design, but it looks like it stops rendering about 6mm from the screen edge. There might be a setting for that, but I'm not fussed.
My 3rd monitor is still a 32" Samsung TV that I've extended the desktop to, mainly to make it easier to play Kayo on or use VLC for a file Plex is having a sook about.
My desk isn't big enough I don't think for monitors much bigger. Plus for tech tinkering, I tend to prefer multiple smaller than a super-monitor. One screen focussed on what I'm working on - Visual Studio or whatever, then other with supporting windows - powershell, docker terminal, Azure Portal / Devops, RDP, etc.
Anyway - there are more flash rigs getting around than mine - but it is such a step up from what I had so I'm very happy!
Just went to the tip trying to clean up the house for the curtain guy
So much stuff has been recycled or left to charity at the tip shop so much more to go
I love seeing more floor space

Donuts highly overated imh. Especially daniel donuts and places like that - fillings are nice and all but the donuts themselves are ordinary
