Not a mega amount, its only a baby subwoofer, will only take 300W max.
Also thought id put this in the purchases thread, but meh.

 

And trouser flappage

 

Very nice. I have a pair of late 90s JL W6 10 in the attic at mum's. They suffered the same as any other 90s woofer (foam rot) but you can get new foam kits for them. Just not gotten around to it yet (he says, after 8 years).

 

Figured it was time to force_turbo=1 on my trusty old Raspberry Pi, overvolt it, push up the clocks and see where it goes. So far it's good enough to play youtube streams at 1080p without a hitch.

 

A word that is not utilized enough in general discourse.

 

Client Back Office down.

Hello 2 hour coffee break.

 

The parents are breaking ground today on their house site.

I'm travelling to Denver tomorrow for 12 days.

The sun is in full blast here.

I have loads of work to do on my presentation for the conference in Denver and haven't packed.

But there is still and ear to ear grin on my face

 

The USB 3 ports I bought to upgrade the USB2 ports on the top of the A10B fit, despite not strictly being for that case. While the front audio panel cable is short by about 20mm, I never use it anyway, so. Pretty chuffed that all worked out without needing to arse about.

 

New PC build now complete, and it is QUIET! I haven't even activated the "quiet" profile on the H115i and this thing is library quiet!

In other news, I thought re-activating Windows 10 would be a total pain as I'd misplaced the Win8.1 product key (genuine) I'd used to install it previously.
I woke up at 1 this morning, having dreamed I found it, so I HAD to check before I forgot, and it was EXACTLY where I'd dreamed it was!

 

A new engine fitted for £2 and some dog biscuits? bargain!

 

it took a week but i finally completed my application to kwalee, cant remember the last time i spent that much effort on a job app, **** all will come from it I bet but I do have a new portfolio and fresh work for it .

 

MIND.

Seriously, I actually had to stop the guy talking today to express my severe thanks and respect. They are bloody amazing.

June 8th at 2pm I fill out two applications for sheltered housing (self contained flats with a warden). I am so excited. He said "It may take a while" to which I said "I've been at it five years, in for a penny !"

They both have given the green light and sent him the forms, and both have a warden that checks in with you twice a week. Perfect for when I can't cope with things.

It's been a very long time coming and it may be a while longer yet, but finally some one who cares and a light at the end of the tunnel.

 

Oh and I am not a superstitious person (I do believe there is something linking calendar dates and maths though, like something deep...) but it just so happens that MIND contacted me exactly ten years to the day that I got off the boat back to the UK. So I also had that to celebrate.

 

Thats just crying our for a Man Cave at the end.
