Hung out with sister all day at my parents’ (she’s kinda stuck here for a couple weeks and is on unemployment. Got a LOT of car trouble). Joked about starting a family owned weed farm. Got into a short sibling quarrel before I left, but all is well.
Don’t get me started on this fucking collage. I love it. i guess i gotta turn off bots on Facebookto post it? That’s a new thing.
I found out earlier today that Mersey Beat/Back Beat has been permanently closed. That sucks. So many friendships were formed there. The best venue in Kobe.
Changing it was a piece of cake. I’m giving this little Roku TV to my sister (removed the superglued pieces). She’s already bugging me about replacing her phone screen (just google it!).
Also, the HDMI cable that Nostro sent was a GREAT replacement for my old cable on my TV that I used to plug my old laptop in. That cable is a big silver mess and falling apart.
I use one of those from 2016 for my music. Solid laptop, hoping to get at least another few years out of mine. Even the onboard sound is OK, though my USB interface drivers are way better for low-latency audio stuff. Just a heads up, if you don’t have a wiped basic version of windows 10 on there, you can free up a ton of space by deleting/uninstalling all the MSI specific software. Only thing I really lost was control of my keyboard backlights, but it frees up a bunch of CPU cycles and hard drive space.
You can also turn off services and stuff to help speed it up. I do hate all the Win10 bloatware tho, like all the MS apps, Xbox, Gaming, things like that. I play some games and I don’t even use those.
Word. I do that on all my PCs. I don’t pay other people to advertise for them.
On my last laptop, even the brand was a metallic emblem that was just stuck on, so my last laptop was just this grey metallic slate. Until the hinge stopped being a hinge and peeled my laptop in half when I tried to close it. The insides were all kinds of colors.
FINALLY heard back from my friend after days of radio silence. Sent her pics of a recent solo abandoned house adventure.
Got into it with my ex-wife last night over how our son should be parented. She’s a negative reinforcement type. I can’t wait until I can talk to him on his own. The kid’s a fucking genius.
I slept half the day away trying to get rid of a headache. Getting used to this new screen. I’m gonna try to sleep, but I doubt it’ll happen. This computer is the shit, and I’m proud of myself for replacing this screen.
Flux can help with that. I have it cranked so that I basically don’t have blue after like 8 PM on any computer or my phone. It all gets green. Does make seeing my basses and pads at a glance a bit of a pain (since I usually color code bass green and pads blue). They both end up a really dark green.
