An air duster and some K5 pro thermal "goop".

I will try the K5 pro on my Panasonic toughbook cf-31. The thing thermal throttles watching Youtube video's :classic_sad:

 

The duster I have already used. Works ok.

Got a slightly defective Sony NEX-F3 camera body (have to restart camera after every shot), an old Pentax lens, and a K mount to E mount adapter.

 

Takes some nice shots.

Have you contacted Sony?  It may be just needing a firmware update or something simple like that.  I had a crap load of Sony Alpha camera gear and I moved to Fujifilm X10 and X-S1.  I vowed after the sony gear to never lug a lens with me again. (besides mobile lenses since 10 of them can fit in your pocket and weigh less than the phone.  

 

I am only shooting fixed lens cameras now.

A bit off topic, but I have never heard someone say cheerio out side of a movie from the 1920s. and today its rarer then ever, its basically extinct. kinda like dodo photography. I am not sure why @JeanLegisays cheerio in his addy, but color me interested in the back story.

 I always thought 'cheerio' was an English term, as in England.

 

Yep, it's not super-common but still used in the UK, mainly England, Scotland and NI. Not sure about Wales.

My family is originally Welsh. From up north in the mountains not south in the coal mines (sheep shaggers :classic_blush:).

 

Anyway my grandfather said "cheerio"  whenever we left his house or as a general 'see ya later'

I've never heard anyone else say it other than as a joke or something.

2x32 GB DDR4-SO-DIMMs, 3200 MHz

2x2 TB TLC NVME SSD

2x2.5 Gbps USB 3.0 A Ethernet adapter

PCIe x4 to NVME SSD adapter

PCIx x1 to USB 3.0 Hub

 

Yup, it's upgrade time!  Going all-in on laptop hardware upgrades with 64 GB/4 TB, transferring its old SSD to ye olde desktop, and adding a direct connection 2.5 Gbps link between them.  The prices are too good right now to go halfway.  $100 for 64 GB of RAM is crazy low, and so is $200 for 4 TB of TLC.

I needed to change my Samsung Tab 7 Plus with a Windows Tablet so i had to chose between an Surface or an Asus Rog z13 Flow with I7 12700h and RTX 3050. Went with the flow because of the better graphics and i can play some games on it like Diablo 4 😄.

Why in hell did Asus put only 16 GB on it and no upgrade possibility!  Soo stupid with the RAM soldered!

 

Also got a new Fury Renegade 2 TB SSD for the main PC.

Well, my last purchases were, a shower, vanity, drywall, plaster and paint for our basement reno. Finally getting it done and back to useable. Got 90 percent of the equipment for the home gym, music room, bar, recroom and kitchen now.  Just need to get it finished up in the next few weeks. Cannot wait now. Progress is happening thankfully. Been a mess since labour day last year when the sewer backup happened. 

 

Need to buy replacement speakers, receiver, a mount for my projector and a new motorized 100" screen we are mounting in the ceiling for movie nights. It will decend right in front of our tv for times when we want the theater experience.

im jelly. thats one nice computer, isn't that the one with an external gpu?

Yeah thats the one, you can get a an Asus xg mobile EGPU with a 6850xt or a  3080/4090 inside, but they are very  expensive. But i have my Desktop with 4090  so i dont need an EGPU for it. The 3050 with the 17 12700h is enough for casual gaming on the fly and diablo IV is running fine with 60 FPS on High

The PC is well build, premium feel the display is gorgeous  but i still dont  understand ASUS with the IDIOTIC move to put only 16gb DRAM soldered! Morons! Also the 2023 variant with 13900h and 4070 also has 16GB! How stupid is that! Also they put an m2.2230 inside..1TB costs like a 2TB m2.2280..but at least you can upgrade it..
