One of my best friends I met in a DRG lobby. We don’t really even play DRG anymore, we do talk almost every day, sometimes they call and talk with me while I fall asleep (wildly different time zones). Don’t even know their name lol

Those shadows make no sense

After I had lower surgery they were tightly controlling the pain meds. Basically giving me minimum possible doses and not allowing anything else. Even the day after when the bolster was pulling a stitch and I was in screaming pain for hours so bad I also got an asthma attack then they confiscated my inhaler until they could clear it with the doctor. Y’all ever have coughing fits the day after getting five abdominal incisions? Fun times fun times

And hopefully automatic backups every few minutes?

This is such a huge thing for me. For roleplaying books in particular I want to dig around in a real book to find things it adds so much

Time to buy the dip! Suck up what little ram there is!

I made this to turn into a shirt to wear at airports but ended up getting lower surgery before I got a shirt made

It has very few markings on it, I did find “pronic” etched into some of the metal. It was many years ago I pried it out of the rest of the system so I can’t give much info on it unfortunately. I got it from the power supply of the computer that housed the big hard drive from 1990 found here (I also no longer have this hard drive): https://lemmy.zip/post/42867255

I’m not home right now but when I’m back I can try to find more markings.

Yeah one of the reasons I even got into computers is because of the crazy satisfying tactile experience. And they all feel so bleh now. I spent good money building a mechanical keyboard that feels like I’m in a duel with a malfunctioning robot when I type just so I can feel something. When I turn a computer on I want it to feel like an event, I turned the machine on with intention

I have more questions about other switches if you’re down with helping me on a quest I never knew I needed.

Do you know what is that extra big red clicking clacking part called that’s feels like I’m activating the go button on a nuclear jet? I’m seeing toggle switch is a thing but those mostly look more like the little metal thingies you flip a bunch of when your spaceship is blaring alarms and you need to get all the lights to stop blinking. Also why does it have 6 wires but only 4 prongs? (Edit to add I think it might be a chilly 3041 or similar? Still don’t know what to call the components or how to find the container it is in so it is in the box and not sticking way out when attached to a thing)

It had two outlets and iirc (been a while) the switches each controlled one outlet. What is going on here why are they connected to each other?

Thank you for a list of terms to help with! I feel like this is starting to unlock a whole new special interest for me, pray for my wallet 😭

Ooh and less than 35 euro I might grab a couple to see how they are thank you :3

Yeah it’s in a student apartment and the people here are barbarians I’m surprised the laundry room door still has functioning hinges. The control box is built like a tank

How in the world do you find things like this holy shit thank you

One of the problems is that it is the co trol panel outside the washing room to get I to the room not the actual machine itself. It’s a blank box but maybe I could dig into the menus to find something or contact the landlords for more info?

Ah, yeah I suppose turn lane is more accurate here. I grew up somewhere with the suicide lanes because rural farming highways but not really turn lanes because my town had a single traffic light that people ignored anyway and just used it like a stop sign lol. Never got used to saying turn lane

Wait these were banned? In Seattle Cap Hill on Sundays iirc there were nighttime street parties with hydraulic lowriders. They’d line the suicide lane, blast music, and do the hydraulic car dancing

So like League or PoE players?
