    Custom Closets

    One easy way to do it is to use pre-made modular solutions where you buy the bits/features you want and will fit in your space, anchor the back corners/wall of the closet first and then work outward from there securing the storage to wall studs. Unfilled open spaces in between can be used to...

    How to identify G4 CPUs?

    There is alot of helpful experience/knowledge about G4 era Powermacs over on macrumors as well (which is where I did alot of my research on D card compatibility). Quite a few folks over there still daily-ing or close to that their PowerPC Powermacs. Coincidentally, I was doing some maintenance...

    How to identify G4 CPUs?

    I havent done the mod myself but it is my understanding that a QS daughter card can be used in GE & DA. A 12v rail from the PSU needs to be soldered to the unused upper left corner mounting hole and the QS daughter card - the way it connects forces it to protrude out further (towards the left...

    How to identify G4 CPUs?

    I have a few loose daughter cards for QS & MDD. First off the QS is green and they debuted in 2001, so likely the daughter card will be dated as such (All of mine are). QS discontinued 2002 at the August introduction of MDD so while I havent run into a 2002 dated card myself, I have seen some...

    Apple/Bose Roommate Speakers

    That’s very cool. I love the aesthetic of these - so awesome. Exactly the sort of project I’m attracted to but I have a thing for quality speakers, DAW studio monitors etc. Always satisfying when you bring something back to life 🙂

    passive solar cooling paint idea

    I live in the desert so you can imagine the sun is very intense on homes. I found this idea/recipe for a cooling paint very cool (pardon the pun). This along with evaporative cooling would be fantastic or even as basic as a coating over/around the evaporative cooler itself could help cool the...

    New website homepage - feedback would be appreciated!

    I prefer a solid background for reading information (like TD's dark theme for example - solid white on gray). Reading off a background like that fatigues my old eyeballs. The cloud colors on black text is much easier to read vs 1v.

    Apple/Bose Roommate Speakers

    I wonder if Bose would have any information about these? Those looks really cool - love the OG Apple logo :)

    I absolutely agree that this by far has been the best VR/AR product offering to date & to have the brand, ecosystem and dev pool that Apple has already going in and the possibility there is fantastic. I'm more interested to see how development takes off and how this is used. Just like ios, the...

    Yeah none of this floats my boat. I think those look ultra dorky. The technology simply needs to get smaller, and the user experience certainly more refined than where it is right now - for me anyways.

    A guy can dream but I think that level of refinement in technology might be attainable when my kids kids are grown & I’m pushing up daisies :) I love the thought of integrating technology at that level & powering it off of ourselves essentially - so cool.

    vision pro

    Not terribly interested in this for anything other than remote working environment perhaps and immersive FPS gaming could be cool but with all the movement youd have to play in a rubber room. For every day use, I'd need something much much more refined - like something integrated into a contact...

    Filler for mdf mouldings

    I use a solvent based filler like plastic wood. Water based paints/fillers/caulk will react to unfinished MDF which is what nail holes and seams effectively are. This prevents water based fillers from setting/curing correctly as the MDF holds onto the filler moisture. I have used solvent based...
