They still make things with tubes...the preferred guitar amps have tubes. Most guitarists prefer the sound of tubes. I have one, a Mesa Boogie Rocket 44.
But I remember radios with tubes. Although the wooden ones were either very old or very expensive. We had one with the BakeLite plastic when I was a kid. And the TVs all had tubes. They would all get quite warm after being on for a little while.

mmmm... vacuum tubes!
They keep this place nice and warm, in the winter!

Yeah, that looks toasty alright!

When I was a kid, a TV repairman would come to your house to fix your set, bringing along a satchel full of vacuum tubes. He'd open up the back panel and check through for the tube that was burned out like an old light bulb, unplug it, sort through the tubes and find an appropriate replacement, plug it in, make sure everything worked, collect a couple of bucks and be on his way.
Now we just replace the whole TV like a burned out bulb because it's usually just as cheap as it is to get it repaired.
One more for the landfill. :)
Who has DAZ Horse 2 and who has a moment to test something?
I'll bet I know what it is...unless you made some horse toast, too. :)
I have time, but my brain is so foggy from pollen allergies and lack of sleep (I can't sleep if I can't breathe through my nose) that all I can do is post nonsense on the DAZ Forums and whimper. :sick:
Glad your feeling better, though. :)
Say what you will about obsolescence, the guys who designed the instrument, above, were artists in their own right. In addition to being well made, their products just had more character.
This scope was made in the mid-sixties. And despite it's age, and having once been dropped from desk height flat onto a concrete surface, it is still reasonably functional. What problems it has had were easily repairable.
...frankly, I'm beginning to think the thing may well out-live me.
Bwahahahaha :D No, this is just for milk.
Man, do I know that feeling!
Here's the package cover image I'm going to use.

Looks cool. Hey is there a Horse 2 colt morph? They're not just smaller, the proportions are different.
Would be nice to go with your mare - mother and child renders for horse lovers.
A "vintage" tektronix model 545A scope. And that image shows only about half of it's tubes, so those... along with it's huge ( but quiet ) ventilation fan do literally heat my home so that I need not turn up the thermostat.
I wonder though, does the electric bill rival what the heating bill would be? :lol:

Nope, no foal morphs.
PAs, I'm really looking at you right now. Hint, hint. *waves a wad of money*
More musing about tube TVs:
It used to take several seconds for the tubes (including the picture tube) to warm up, before the TV actually came "on".
And we used to walk 10 miles to school and back home, and it was uphill both ways, by cracky! And we LIKED IT!
Since the building I'm in uses leaky wood and sheet-rock crawlspaces ( the original contractor probably absconded with all the duct-work funds ) such that in addition to being inefficient, I also get a whiff of my next-door neighbor's chain-smoking and cooking odors...
... I'd say I'm probably better off running the scope.
Just like a quartz-heater... only handier and more interesting.

Drunk horse is pretty cool. (waves smaller wad of money - I had such a bad case of March Madness I still have the symptoms: 1. Lighter wallet. 2. Tendency to shout "Oooo...shiny! Gimmie!")
meh something to complain about :lol: eta seeing double is weird *wonders* :lol:
don't forget the broke rocks in the lunchbox. We used to dream of broken rock, our lunch came with a chisel :lol:

That's what I do :). Open the login page with new page from the log out/in link, log in and refresh the forum page :)
Think all the uv issues are nailed nao *hopes*
Arrrrr! Complaint!
I still need someone to test me morphs before I release them. :down:
Don't have horse v2 sorry :)
Go to the Horse 2 threads in the PC Ski. If you have not done so as yet.
Don't you bring logic to this whine!
*shakes a tiny fist*
You are, of course, right. That's probably the best course of action.

they use tektronix at my dayjob.
Just like my old quad core machines. They have the first quad core CPUs Intel made, and they produce an enourmous amount of heat. The coolers weigh over a pound, and I have tied them up with copper wire because I feared the weight might break the board. The house was heavily insulated a couple of years ago and now the computers can easily heat up the room they're located in during the winter.
breakfast :) anyone?
*noms* :)
I am sure all of the Content is included with the item.
I am sure the Smart Content works properly.
I am sure I used the Correct Followers.
I am sure all the Materials will appear when the item is selected.
I am sure Everything Works just fine and dandy.
I see no need to test it.
Off to the next project that I will make sure is properly put together so there will be no need to test it.
I just got an update for an item that is supposed to have Smart Content, but, of course, it does not.
I see no need to mention which product it is as there are many and there will be more.
Same old song and dance.
This is the complaint thread right?

You are, of course, right. That's probably the best course of action.Don't ya get snarky wid me little one. I'll get the Otter after you. And if that don't work I gotz a room full of MeerCoons (I'm told) just looking of more stuff to pull into little parts just cause they seem to enjoy it.
Speeking of which, anybody know how to get rid of a room full of MeerCoons?

I guess I can do it.
I'm phobic about horses (other than of the Friendship is Magic variety). The only reason I made the Jockey and Riding Habit were that Marieah poked me, and I then didn't have to do any horse renders because she did them. :D
