We didn’t either! He’s a rare find for sure.

I’ve had PSUs with odd issues that still worked for the most part, but when I tested them (with my tester) they reflected a weak voltage on one segment or some other failure. But it would still sorta work. These testers do work.
Mine is very similar to the one in this Corsair PSU testing guide. I think it was $15.
They sell PSU testers for $15-20. I bought one years ago and it still serves me well. You plug in the 24-pin and the other power connectors and it will tell you where it’s faults lie. If none, then the motherboard should be scrutinized next.
Capacitors exist all over your system. They are on nearly every component. Look for them and then look for the bulge out the top. There are reliefs (a big X) in the top of the capacitor to allow it to “blow” out that direction. Sometimes it only bulges and does not blow, but that’s enough for failure. If you open your PSU, try not to root around too much with your fingers. Be cautious of the power load that might remain. Visually inspect the caps. It might only be a slight bulge or none at all, but the caps can still die.
I’d lend you a PSU, so maybe you have a friend close who might too? You may still consider buying a new PSU to allow for future upgrades and put the old one on the shelf as a spare or for other purposes. That is, if the PSU is fine. It is still possible the motherboard is at fault, but again with these symptoms, it would likely be a cap.
Good luck!
Incineration toilets are more common in remote facilities where disposal of excrement can pose contamination risks. That’s how I learnt of them by watching documentaries.
I can’t not think about Clint Howard saying that word when I hear it:
Dink, dink. Dink dink dink dink, dink!
Yes, I was looking at the cast and noted Harvey Korman and Mark Blankfield as well. I am pumped to watch it and I think I’ll like it more than the rating gives it credit for. Thanks for the reference!!
I love Mel Brooks, but I can’t believe I missed that one. Now I have to see it even if IMDB has a fairly low rating on it.
Okay, now that you got rid of that guy, excellent job btw, when do we set sail for Inner Earth?
Yes, good luck with the Darian Gap
I have a friend who makes sweetened bacon. It is delicious, but that’s the only way I’d eat it. Not this garbage.
Most places I’ve seen this referenced it is called a “credit freeze”, but good advice nonetheless.
We are now in S04 of DS9 (first time) and just watched the “Our Man Bashir” episode. What a fun one. I would think they enjoyed playing these crazy roles every now and then. I am also enjoying Quark’s brother Rom more and more as they further reveal his character.
I am very much enjoying spotting these actors that show up.
Did you butcher that on purpose? lol
“Live long and prosper!”
Volume issues aside, I find that the music is far better in TOS. I am working through DS9 and the soundtrack is so pale and bland. It’s really the worst element of the show, but I like nearly every other bit of it. They just don’t focus on it at all.
For example, the fight music in the original amps the viewer up, while in DS9 it is barely noticeable. I prefer TOS in that regard.
Or “iced dessert”. <25% milkfat is the line, I think.
Omg,
This is unsettling.
