Recalled this gem the other day: https://www.armadillorun.com/
Have fond memories of playing it years ago. I wonder how it’s held up over the decades?
May get myself a so-called desk mat for the odd cases where I run out of mouse pad room 😛
Ten years is the estimate before it hits 80% capacity so, in theory, it should stay alive for a total of fifteen to twenty at reduced capacity. But time will tell! Definitely relic worthy!
Let’s hope it works!
In my experience, off-brand batteries don’t tend to last as long so hopefully the official battery works 🙂
My favorite part is where he was supposedly drunk and on crack the whole time. He even got barred from entering the studio as the guard thought he was a random nutcase. Sounds about right 😛
Really need to watch Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels at some point. Its Talk page is a pretty fun read, too! 🙂
The Rift was pretty enjoyable, even if it was a pretty typical underwater adventure film. The acting helped it stand out even though the plot wasn’t anything to write home about. 🙂
Almost stayed for yesterday’s tournament since it was starting earlier than usual but decided I wasn’t yet ready. One day! 🙂
Getting my mom set up with an Ecoflow Delta 2 Max. She lives in an area with a sensitive grid so she’d like to be able to get some power when they get clobbered by a hurricane. 🙂
“I’ll explode when I want to explode! Oh look, a space probe! Target practice!” 😀
It’s a standard Dish Network dish. It’s pretty banged up and looks like a tree had fallen on it so it may not be usable (the shape is all out of whack). Won’t know until I fix a wire to it and plug it into a radio, though. Will probably also want to give it a good scrubbing. It’s pretty dirty. For cooler weather!
Lorcana seems to be pretty popular. Perhaps it’s worth including it into the first post?
Thinking about buying a couple of Pokemon starter decks. Never did play the game, just liked the artwork. Would be a slight change but I’m kind of in the mood to try a game that’s a little less intense than Yu-Gi-Oh. Not that I plan to quit playing, just want a great of fresh air is all. 🙂
Trying to do some research on plasma confinement for some ideas bouncing around the dusty processor and Wikipedia’s article leaves a little to be desired: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_confinement
It just links to the different types instead of providing a general overview. The overview would be really helpful so I had a better handle on what I’m reading in the linked articles
The DoE does a slightly better job: https://www.energy.gov/science/doe-explainsplasma-confinement
Sorry! Looks like that image was removed for whatever reason. Here’s a new one!
Yeah, the A/C is set to turn on at 80F. The humidity is so bad, though, that it’s still very high outside even at 72F. It’s horrible!
Great! Yeah, I need to do that with my lamps. As I use them, the screws holding the shafts together and the one holding the shade down come loose so I periodically need to tighten them up. Had one time when the whole thing came apart on me, it was so loose 😛
Will definitely add it to the reading list! 🙂
Over here, we also have instances where prisoners are sometimes exploited to run scams using their phone time. Always disheartens me 🙁

Would look quite nice in the kitchen! 🙂
The jars came! They’re much bigger than expected!
I have the entire series of Flying Circus on DVD! 😀
Could also use it to mail a letter! 😛
The sleeves came in and they work like a charm! They’re a much better fit than the basic standard sized sleeves over a regular Japanese sized sleeve with much less movement. 🙂
Added a (very) short blurb on card grading
Grandmother’s House was pretty good. It relies mostly on story telling with little violence, language, or sex which made it a nice breath of fresh air. The star attraction? It features Uncle Leo! 😀
I’ve updated the first post with a list of official card databases for the big three TCGs 🙂
On April 21, 2024 at 8:29 pm Bob Marley saidSome notes on double sleeving: I’ve been using Japanese size sleeves from Dragon Shield enclosed by Dragon Shield standard size clear matte sleeves but the fit isn’t tight enough so the inner sleeve damages the outer sleeve when it jostles around. Sadly, my LGS doesn’t carry Japanese size outer sleeves so I’ll need to order those, more than likely. Really makes me sad as I do try to give them the business when possible and feel bad when I have to purchase from elsewhere 🙁
Decided to talk to the shop before ordering and they were more than happy to place an order. The lesson? Doesn’t hurt to ask! 🙂
Mansion of the Doomed wasn’t bad, if a tad repetitive. Eventually, they go into a montage of kidnapping and harvesting but I feel as though they overdid it a tad. Would have been much better if it focused more on the actual transplant research, like The Island of Dr Moreau, than the constant stream of victims.
Old, banged up satellite dish acquired. Let the hunt begin!
Really dislike Summer. The heat and humidity really make it difficult to sleep and do things during the day. Even at 0500, it’s still close to 80°F outside. 🙁
Rewatched Killer Klowns the other day. It pretty much speaks for itself. It’s a blast! 😀
In the future, I may skip the firmware upgrades if they’re going to be that much hassle 😛
You can most likely skip the monitor’s HDR settings. It’s different from the old style HDR, which I’ll call software HDR. The new HDR is monitor based and the programs that take advantage of it are few and far between. Older programs, say five years or older, use software HDR which modifies the lighting in the software instead of using the hardware lighting. Hopefully that makes sense 🙂
HW Monitor will be able to provide a lot of extra details. It’ll also let you monitor certain stats like voltage and temperatures in real-time. It may be useful for the other system that’s experiencing some power issues. May help tell you if it’s getting enough juice 🙂
