  1. I'm teetering on old fart territory. I know my tolerance for B/S had dropped to nothing since I started working retail. People must think i'm an AHOLE! ha ha. My other businesses are starting to pick up now, and I have gotten some great writing gigs so far with a couple of web development clients! Oh, tonight's menu is a few glasses of wiser's 10 year barrel aged whisky, and a couple of runs of comatose strain! My shipment shows up tomorrow and I am going to be baked the entire day! ha ha
  2. Bought two new ipad 10th gens for the wife and I. 256gb models. Ordering the Logitech keyboard/case/stand outfits for both. Yep, the darkside is consuming me. I want my tech to all work together and with the families. Oh well, you can only fight so long. Ha ha ha.
  3. Oh man. I had 250,000 dollars worth of gear. I loved it. But in the good small town way the people here hated to see a local be successful and shipped stuff elsewhere for more money I was the cheapest on the island.
  4. Well, eff that. The bottom case does not fit. Oh well, hopefully I can get a refund or I will be leaving negative feedback and getting my money back via ebay because it's the wrong part completely. Its for another device by dell, and not mine!
  5. Painting cars, bikes and other motorsports items is my forte, powder and ceramic coating as well. I am just wondering if they do the same for pc. Bring it to the auto parts place, scan the color and mix a rattle can.
  6. To the painters here, how do you color match paint for your laptops? I received a new bottom tray for my dell which I cracked taking it off. It's a completely different color, like they forgot to paint it. Do you just bring it to an auto shop and have them mix a can for you?
  7. Yeah, I am down with anything beer or whisky (single malt and others). We plan our husband and wife trips around breweries, distilleries and wineries. Ha ha. We are not allowed in Grow houses, or we would visit them too. In Canada, the pandemic opened up our beer and wine aquisition abilities. They allowed product to cross provincial borders without restriction. Great for us who love products not available at the local stores. I love our east coast breweries. 2 crows is our favorite. Spindrift, garrison, pei brewing for Atlantic Canada. split rock, boomstick, western newfoundland brewing company and port Rexton for really good beer on the island of Newfoundland! Since I am trying to get around 50 lbs off me I am cutting back on the beverages and drinking flavored water for a while
  8. Cool, pardon the pun. I will stick with my NT-H2. a degree difference is not going to make or break a system at all.
  9. The biggest trend I wish would go away is the move to 2 USB - C ports and that's it. I purposely purchased my system because it had the ports I need, which seem to be going away. Meaning I have to carry a USB C dock, a card reader, a HDMI hub, etc to do the same I can do with my current system...Counter intuitive imo.
  10. Awesome, didn't know this was a thing. Oh the video editing beast you could build....ha ha!
  11. Chipset, graphics, lan...all of the above. The difference was noticeable.
  12. I am wondering is there an egpu enclosure that also has a slot for HDD storage as well? this would be great for my use for content creation on the road in hotels and cottages. I could hook up to the egpu with my notebook and have much more power for resolve. Then store on a nice large HDD in the enclosure.
  13. The green label is their new strong blonde. 10%. It's really good. I am a beer connoisseur. I have had over 500 different beers over the past ten years. I have purchased bottles that were over 200 dollars (sam adams utopias). Duval is our all time favorite beer with 2 crows Pollyanna coming in a close second! As for the cloud producing stuff, I am a total newbie to that, but I have tried about 30 to 40 different strains already with some great and some a huge let down. Ha ha.
  14. Well, on the menu tonight was 2 Chimay beers, a green label and white...After that two full runs with Low tide strain in the vape. Sitting here now with a great amazing high. Watching Jeff Healey videos!
  15. I have a second 14" touchscreen I use for editing on the road, and put it below my two 24 inch monitors when home for putting tools on for editing at my workstation. They are great to have!
  16. I would never buy an asus product. I had terrible service from them in the past where they did not honor their included warranty. I purchased three devices at the same time for our business, and all three failed in the same fashion within 3 months of ownership and they told me to get bent. Said it was not their fault. I start reading and everyone who purchased the same device had the same issue of the screen failing within 3-6 months and asus not honoring their warranty. So even if their machine was 2 times as fast as the fastest notebook and pooped gold nuggets every 20 mins, I would not buy one. Hp, dell and Acer all honor warranty without issue and are great to deal with. I had to get one dell, one acer and 4 hp notebooks replaced under warranty. The acer and dell were for physical damage and they honored no questions asked. The Hp was the same DV 9000 system that had the flaky motherboard, kept replacing them, but they kept breaking...but they did keep replacing them even after the warranty period!
  17. Well tonight's menu is a 4 pack of 2 crows beers and a pack of shredems sour cherry punch indicia gummies. In about an hour I should be feeling fine. 🤪😶‍🌫️
  18. Yes, Luminar is awesome for real estate photography which is what I would be using it for. Also yes, Most night sky photos now are luminar/software produced and not an actual photo. I am doing more research on the linux thing for sure. I want to load it up on my workstation on dual boot and see how I like it.
  19. I have no Idea. I know that the rocky mountain has the most powerful 48v system in any e assistance bike. The rad wagon gets 40kms or more to a single charge and using the almost max position for power assist. makes a big difference to an old guy like me.
  20. One of the ones I have not tried yet. Saw it though. Might grab some. I was driving Newfoundland distilleries Aquavit last evening. It uses local honey that is produced right across the street from me...I am drinking my lawn!
  21. It's the same broken record every time a new version of windows is released. The only time it was warranted was me edition. Every other version was awesome. VISTA and 11 being my two favourites.
