This time I remembered to take photos

That stock cooler also belongs to those, didn't have any LGA775 cooler at hand.

So, I got two of these for the GPU. On paper it looked better though:

Such simple adaptors, yet infinitely useful because twisting those PCIe connectors to stay out of the way is always a pain.

basco · Nov 24, 2019

hmm that xfire 4890 reminds me of my xfx black edition which i think runs on crazy 1,40+ volts- need to search for it

Logitech K830 backlit media wireless keyboard and Samsung Galaxy S9+

S9+ shipped today... might take a while to get it tho since I had to find the Exynos version in order to root and flash. hard to find those variants under 600 so I had to deal with longer shipping time for getting one for only 370

oobymach · Nov 27, 2019

Camera managed to take a couple not terrible pics of mouse. Took 50ish pics trying to get these 3. Also adjusted exposure on above images (can't edit post).

Why no good/disappointment mate?

sam_86314 · Nov 27, 2019

Ordered a new spool of PLA filament for my 3D printer...

My first spool was HATCHBOX brand. It had problems with the filament looping over itself and getting snagged. I decided to try this brand because it was cheap ($13 for this 1KG spool versus $20 for the HATCHBOX filament) and it has good reviews. It also came with a build surface that I can use instead of masking tape.

The build surface installed on my printer. It has adhesive on the back and sticks on.

I printed 3DBenchy at 75% scale to test this filament. I think it turned alright. It took about 35 minutes to print.

I'll try to take better care of this filament so it doesn't go brittle like my first spool.

Bought a new wireless xbox one controller to replace my old wired 360 one only to find out the onboard bluetooth on the b450 carbon is utterly useless. So until I buy a stupid dongle, I remain wired. The controller itself is a nice improvement though, which is nice.

Mine works fine with a generic cheap BT dongle which I purchased from ebay.

It's working fine now. After some googling I discovered I needed the plug the antennas on the motherboard for the Bluetooth to function properly. My previous motherboard didn't have any antennas for Bluetooth so I thought they were only for Wi-Fi.
