Fitz Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 Ok, finally finished putting together the tiny, low power home file server I mentioned before. It got delayed from having to build the HDD mounting bracket and the internal power cable (plus all the times I took it apart to change/add things like switches, power connector, LEDs, etc), but it's finally working.

Beefy Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 Wowsers. I *wish* I could say I bought something exciting like some Stax...... But all I can muster is the BJC order I placed last week, and picked up from the post office today. Three sets of LC-1 stereo audio cables to replace all my cheapies.
Salt Peanuts Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 darn it Sorry Dan. I needed an amp for my deck rig.
n_maher Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 darn it I think that if you look closely you'll find you got something out of the deal.
grawk Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 I think that if you look closely you'll find you got something out of the deal. hrm, I'm overtired, I don't catch subtlety right now It took me almost a full day to find the spinal tap thread on the other site.

Good job.
Fitz Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 Is that the thing your fun with Molex conectors harness was for? Good job. Hah yeah, it is, thanks. I think in the future I'll just stick with standard cases... no more of this building half the stuff from scratch nonsense.
Duggeh Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 6 litres of red kola. The revision/exams season begins...
Dusty Chalk Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 i guess, technically, the last thing i "bought" was a Rolling Stone subscription. i have the first issue, but i chose bill me later.... i'm really glad this magazine is good again.It is? What changed?
Absorbine_Sr Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 they've gone back to being a magazine about culture, music, and politics, instead of being a movie celebrity/semi-lad mag like they were for several years. it's basically classic Rolling Stone, again. Yep, I got a free 1 year subscription for joining Salon.com, thinking what the hell I probably wouldn't like it. But when that was about to expire I renewed for 2 years because it really has been a worthwhile read.
Dusty Chalk Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 When the fuck did that happen? Was I asleep? They've been worthless for years, how long have they been not worthless...worthful...worthy of consideration...Did they change management or something?
postjack Posted May 10, 2008 Report Posted May 10, 2008 6 tickets to B.B. King & Willie Nelson at The Wharf in Orange Beach, AL, July 26 2008. $78 a piece after fees. ah well, I guess if I look at it like I'm seeing two headliners I only feel mildly screwed over. I remember paying $33 to see Metallica when I was 15 and thinking how outrageous the price was.
