silly electronics stuff 

i dunno about you but

despite having way more components to replace, i'd rather repair the 250W

350 is so cheaply built that even if i replaced the caps it'd probably have more failures within months

silly electronics stuff 

which one would you rather repair

you may choose one

(if it helps, the one on the left is 350W and the other is 250W)

electronics horror (capacitor plague) 

oh maybe this is the source of the problem

the fucking power supply has vented caps

local shark/dragon/snake is not sure what to make for dinner

maybe that thing of beef bourguignon?

annoying meme everyone is probably tired of 

well, if pee really was stored in the balls, wouldn't I be peeing more often now that I don't have them anymore? ;P

puu.sh/BliaY/c83b140fd5.wav this is what I mean btw (it's rather quiet, but still very audible in recordings from my old comp)

hell i'm considering recapping the entire motherboard since it was released right around when capacitor plague became a thing

it's just luckily been in mostly working order

i suppose I'll have to recap things eventually

20+ year old components are bound to get fucky after a while

a component of my old computer is *spewing* electromagnetic interference to the point there's quite a bad effect on the sound card

i have this midi

no idea what song it's supposed to be but it certainly sounds like it belongs in any number of different games

all i've really got is the filename, haybop.mid

you can't change which synthesizer is the default within windows anymore, so it has to be changed within whatever program you're using for your midis (which I know can be done in Winamp at least)
