Well, it's a plan. Not a good plan; but a plan never the less.
Sorry, just not a lot going on around here. Unless you count the rain. Been raining (mostly) all week. It is WET outside! Even the Dog has decided that he's only going outside when his bladder is causing physical discomfort. Or he thinks he'll make it wetter inside than out. I don't know. He's a Dog and you never really know what a Dog is thinking until it doesn't bite you. Don't get me started.
Been pulling together all the Game/Program Demo disks my father-in-law gave me trip before last, giving them a try, and if they've been interesting enough, I make a .iso file out of it and throw out the actual disc. I mean, these games/programs are from the 90's from, like, Computer Magazine and such. Remember when they sent out those demo discs? Yeah, he kept every one for the past 35 years.
And, I gotta admit, some of those old games brought back memories of how it was WAY BACK WHEN home computing first started. Remember having a 50 lb monitor that showed a whole 4 colors whether you used them or not? Remember going from CGA to EGA to SVGA but you had to take out a loan against your kids college funds. (If you had a college fund for your kids. Or even had kids.)
Twin floppy systems were cool because you had TWIN floppies for gosh' sake. I was proud of my twin floppies. I invited friends over to see my twin floppies. I don't know how the Police got involved ..
Er ...
Posted some videos on my Youtube that I captured playing on the Quest 3. (Can't believe I have 145 videos and 36 subscribers. 36!) I am enjoying the HELL out of that Quest 3!
Eco-worthy had their ECO-WORTHY 400W Solar Panels 4pcs 100 Watt 12 Volt Monocrystalline Solar Panel Module on sale for less than $200 so I bought one. (4? Well, one order of 4 panels.) Then bought a MPPT controller for them. I just couldn't pass up that deal even if they are the old Monocrystalline and not the new poly-stuff. They'll probably outlive me. So now I'll have 7 new(er) 100 watt panels and 4 (way) older 100 watt panels to play with. Next I'll save up for one of them sun-tracker things to mount them on. Need some micro inverters too. Hmmm...
Last Date Day SWMBO was going to take me to Sheri's in Silverdale but when we got there it was closed. Permanently. Damn! The one in East Bremerton was closed a long time ago. We stopped by the IHop just down the road from Sheri's but wasn't impressed when we walked in and left. Then she (SWMBO) told me she really wasn't hungry anyway so we made a quick stop at Burger King (cause *I* needed something to eat!) and made our usual stop at WinCo before heading home. Tucked her into our bed and even wrapped her in a heating blanket. So, success! Got my girl into bed at the end of the date.
I'm so lucky!
