i'm dressing up as something real spooky for halloween

tuition

this specific short bit in regular car reviews describes me very accurately https://youtu.be/kBkjXdCf8DE?t=157

the fucking have you played atari today jingle is stuck in my head now fuck shit

is. that bottom middle picture in the ataribox website showing it just. playing terraria

i. that's. not an atari game, atari

have you played atari today?

whomst've been drawing dicks

timeline stop moving i keep faving the wrong toots

bebibobebop robot noises

mmmm i could get a prop-replica discovery badge from the official star trek store for not that terribly much ($32 shipped to me)

hmmmMMMMM

star trek discovery is getting immensely good wow

i wonder what it would take to make general mibi more popular outside my immediate mastodon circle and an obscure russian wiki

i really wish more people would listen to it even if they hate it

or is it just not good enough to have been popular

did you know there's an unreleased NES game about John Stamos? it's totally true

is there any modern-ish linux that runs on a pentium 100mhz

a friend found more sony 14-inch PVMs for R$170.. apparently not much use since those came straight from a medical environment (but aren't the MD variants)

tempted .... i can definitely afford it, but what do i do with the faulty one i have now?

I need to get an in-circuit ESR meter..

I'll trace back which capacitor that one I suspected is, if it is in fact the 5vsb output, I'm pretty sure that would fix it

however, the replacement cap I have, while similarly rated, is not high-ESR, so it's probably not a great fix

even then, at least it would keep this psu on its last legs while I wait for its replacement??

you know what?

this whole article is very similar to what i'm having

the old phenom I built with this psu back in 2011 did not use 5vsb constantly

This new AM4 motherboard however, keeps 5vsb powering USB devices constantly, and I in fact used one of them to power an USB night light while my computer was off

That might've worn down the 5vsb output, which would explain a single output cap failing...

though honestly i think i doubt that the issue is a single capacitor failure and without an oscilloscope and a thorough study of the pcb, i probably won't find the real issue with the psu

i already bought a new psu

... should i try repairing the old one anyway..?

by repairing i mean replacing that one capacitor i'm doubtful on, i have a good equivalent replacement

w-what's the worst that could happen ha ha ha (it could blow up)

i mean not really because this psu seems to have good fault protection and i don't think one replaced capacitor will change that
