@nick @yojimbo Nah… PB Tech weren’t super helpful. They said they don’t stock them because there’s too much variation and they don’t wanna be held responsible for blown PSUs or GPUs. Where’s their sense of adventure.

@CobaltVelvet I just discovered FoodHouse through your Bandcamp account and I love them. Kinda like next gen MySpace sounding stuff.

Hello, Octodonners. It looks like Alice's patreon in support of our chosen instance has plateaued. Please do what you can to help our friendly neighborhood cyberpunk queen, @CobaltVelvet

Donating is grand; boosting this, even, will be helpful, to get the message around.

@nick @yojimbo I had a wee play before on Horizons and it was fun. I’m slumming it on a GT 610 so I won’t be touching Odyssey. A friend gave me his old ASUS 9600 GT TOP which is older but slightly better. Unfortunately it seems I’ve chucked out all the spare cables that came with my power supply. Nooooooooo 😹

@yojimbo Thanks so much! Your wisdom is greatly appreciated. Turns out my GPU has been put on backorder until October 😢. My current rig should handle it alright in the meantime.

@yojimbo I'm looking at having a dabble with #EliteDangerous. Any tips for a n00b? I just upgraded my CPU, have a new GPU in the post and installed Windoe$. It also happens to be on #HunbleBundle this week... https://www.humblebundle.com/games/take-control

@anke I’ve introduced my kids to Fraggle Rock and they love it. There’s also new mini-episodes on AppleTV+ that are pretty fun. I have plenty of proud Dad moments when I find them bumbling around the house singing the songs from the show.
