Hamilton would like a word...

Not touching my computer for a while. Flipped the PSU this morning and swapped to the new cables that came with it. I previously just stuck the new unit in and left the old cables, since I wanted to make as little changes as possible. As the GPU fan is acting up, I thought the new cables may help but no dice. Of course after doing that, I get the self-restarting/no display BS happening again. GPU comes out again because I can’t remove the RAM sticks with it in place as it’s a massive card. Tried to see what would happen with no RAM as suggested, and it kept doing the same thing. Put one stick in a different slot, we’re good, same with the second. I think between moving the tower from vertical to horizontal to work inside and messing with the plugs on the mobo, something is tripping it or the RAM sticks. Either way she runs again, but I am confused and feel like I’m working with a ticking time bomb.

Sometimes it's best not to question things and just roll with it.

Ordered the Ceriglass polish, screw it! LOL and a few other items I've been lazy about replacing. Fresh SD cards for the dash cams, high endurance Sandisk 64GB to replace the regular 32GB Transcend ones. Also a second big fluffy microfiber towel for rinseless washing the cars this winter, I'm going to skip a week on mine so I can get hers cleaned up for a trip, or so I keep telling myself but not doing it. Honest, I'm gonna do it! If she could just get a day off where we're both home for ****s sake.

Wooo polish.

Decided I'm tired of music being on the backburner, I'm tired of struggling with equipment I just can't find inspiration in. I'm done, ****ing sick of it. Cried for 2 hours in pure frustration and self hate, before passing out as I wrote this... I just don't care about cars anymore, can't afford what I want to be happy there so might as well be happy in music. Between selling the land yacht and obsolete cheesy gear I should be able to get most everything I've ever wanted.

But you need a car to ride around in playin your mixtape.

Finally got around to trying some of that Renfro Reaper salsa straight up, it's very good! Initial flavor is a bit sweet then it turns into a strong heat and smoky finish with a lingering heat at the back of your jaw and sides of your head. I like it a lot!

Too late, I've joined all the other anti car millennials.

Hmm, I still need to find some of the Renfro Reaper salsa. Especially since I killed off the ghost pepper.

https://www.renfrofoods.com/ you can buy it direct from them it turns out, not seeing a distributor list on their website but I'm sure you can message them for one to see if there's somewhere local to you.

At least get a golf cart or make your brother take you to TOTD next year in his whatever he's about to ruin

Ahh ok, cool. May just do that, see if they can tell who they're sending the Reaper to.

Surprisingly aside from wheels and tires he's left it alone, well that and the cat back. I dunno, right now I'm just REALLY upset over the music thing... That said it's not anything new, I had wanted to buy an OB-Xa instead of a car years ago when they were still around $3K for a decent one... But there's hope since Behringer is on a vintage synth cloning spree and the OB-Xa is one planned:

Doesn't have the grandeur of the original, but if it sounds the same as the original like their other clones have I'll be happy.

Behringer has been 1:1(if not better) cloning expensive vintage synths and selling them at fair prices. I've wanted an OB-Xa(huge synth on last page) since I started playing, in fact it's the synth that got me into synths and playing in general. So it'd mean a lot to me to have one, especially since I've desperately searched for another synth that sounds close enough and it's always gotten to me at some level. Now they're $6,000+ for a decent example... so once Behringer finishes their clone(up above) it'll probably be $1,000 or so and I'll finally be able to get the synth that started it all for me. Umm, I guess Shelby Cobra clones etc... is the closest equivalent in cars. As good if not better than the original, but something a lot more people can afford.

Lyrics and the music don't go together, ha. Ukulele and mandolin for Dragon Force, some odd people you've found. tongue.gif

Ooh, one of the classic Oberheim tracks: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EYYdQB0mkEU. Can see it and hear it right off the bat.

Nice. Speaking of electronics...
I've scored some possible deals on eBay the past two days. An X470 and B450 board for $70 and $50 shipped, decent ones too, but there's a catch. The CPU socket top cover is missing. No damaged terminals in the socket from what I can see, ordered a pair of sockets from China and a cheap compatible CPU as well so I can take parts off the replacement sockets and try to snap them onto the sockets on the boards and boot up the $25 CPU to see if they work. If they don't work out...well that sucks. I'll try to re-sell them I guess? If they do work then yeehaw I get to build myself a modern PC for the first time in a long time. Bye Bye i5 4590 bottleneck!

Since my workstation is basically a server, finding RAM is a bit of a challenge. ECC Reg RAM isn't particularly cheap, and dual proc boards eat double the amount of RAM.

Scored a 64GB kit for $130, which is when I found that my Proc 1 riser only has provisions for 4 sticks of RAM, versus the 8 slots the main board has for Proc 0.

So now I have 80GB of ram. That should be enough for now.

I want the D!

Behringer does it again, make a clone of a $3,000-5,000 synth and offer more features. Though it is short 7 keys, but I can forgive that all considered. Especially since it should come in around $600-700 new.
