Such a great series :) Having been born in the 70s and being a BMX bike riding, ET loving, Atari 2600 playing, quarter hoarding arcade junkie, c64 kid of the 80s, this series was so much nostalgic fun to watch with my wife who is 8 years younger than me so she missed the 80s culturally speaking...

LOL 😂

If you are anchoring into a stud I don’t think spacing is too big of a deal meaning you can maximize your space and keep everything tight. Now if you are anchoring into the sheet rock with something like toggle bolts. Then yes, I would spread the weight out so you don’t over load a single...

What upgrades are you planning for yours?

Today I was messing with retroarch v1.20.0 on MX v25.1. There were many issues to just get to the point of installing cores. My basic install was missing download cores menu, which for whatever reason was turned off haha, so I had to enable it via settings>user Interface>Menu Item...

I made some progress today. I was able to adjust config in settings to get srps beta Aquacenter to play clean and smooth playback from Plex on my Powermac G5. It's not perfect as when the episode is over, it doesnt forward to the next one but watching 2026 Plex on a 2004 Powermac G5 is pretty...

I love the LEDs in the fruit iMac g3s. That looks great! I did a similar treatment to my pmG5 and have three fruit iMacs myself. I think I will absolutely get some leds in those :)

I was playing with a new OSX 10.5 PowerPC multimedia plex/soundcloud/internet radio front end that SRP just released the beta for over HERE. I was able to connect with my Plex token and the app saw my recent Walking Dead episodes along with my server and I was briefly able to stream an episode...

Holy cow it took a loooong time to find grease monkey xpi v3.31.4 for Palemoon. 😝 I know its pretty random but if anyone needs it, the file is Here! Scroll down to Assets and the v.3.31.4 .xpi will give you the full monty lol.

I worked on placing my mac chime montage on my landing page and updated some of the page names & added a MX logo at the bottom although I just realized I did not make the back ground transparent - oops LOL. I also started working on my retro console/hand held page with organizational...

I fired up a couple of my lampshades and I am unable to reproduce the heat that Op is describing. I was being facetious more than anything in my prior post. Not terribly helpful I suppose BUT my Peanutbutter chocolate chip cookies are 100% FIRE. Delicious :) I am still very intrigued with...

Huh, I wonder if a metal cookie sheet or sheetpan would have a similar effect lol ... or cast iron trivet or pan for that matter. Cheap way to test before dropping $25 on a monster heatsink :) Oh that reminds me. I need to bake some cookies.

So over the past few days I have been trying to to figure out how to embed a macintosh chime mp3 montage I made. The file itself was tiny as far as audio files go - maybe 400k? Making it took all of maybe 5 minutes? - easily accomplished with free Clideo audio merger. Within those 5 minutes, I...

I picked up a lidded pair of 3.0ghz x5365 xeons last summer for like $5 bucks lol that I need to delid to bring my qc 1,1 to 8 cores. LOL They're sitting on my tool rack in my garage (still in their box) next to my bench - been there all winter. Hoping to get to that project soon. Then I'll...

Haha, that's pretty funny :) My middle kiddo about 4 years ago was whacking on the keyboard of one of my intel macbooks and somehow turned half the keyboard off LOL. This was in a brand new to me operating system - ElementaryOS that I was demoing for the first time, so I had zero idea how to...
