@meanstreak : The new hatchet is a classic. Lucky Duck!
Good morning folks. Another beautiful day in the Sunny San Joaquin. Easter will be 80F and sunny.
Our power was off half a day so we ate leftovers and none of my aquarium filters ran. I did some big water changes to help, and ran my network from batteries.
I have three 18kva UPS that keep it all going, but it's hardly enough. Half the nodes stayed down. I managed to run a couple air pumps. Water pumps are too much load.
I'm re-working an old computer for my TV room, but I think the motherboard is going out. USB activity is flaky. I may pick up a new board, processor & ram.
I've got a stonkin' monster video card for it that will run two 4k monitors or four 1440 professional monitors. I have two 1440s in 27", two 1080p in 27", a 42" 720p, and a 52" 1080p.
(I floated the idea of putting them all up on the wall at once but was met with much female ire.)
Anyhow, I think it will be the first time I have built a PC in some 6 or 7 years now. I used to build several a year.
Ahhhh . . . retirement. I hope to be saying that a long, long time.
Have a nice Easter folks.
