    computer power supply fan is so loud!  Or maybe something inside the power supply is vibrating?  The noise becomes worse when I render something or play a game.  I will need to replace the power supply before I play with Daz Studio, Poser 9 or Vue again.  The fan speed for the CPU heatsink looks normal. edited for clarity.

    Maybe it's one of the case fans.  Or a fan on the GPU heatsink.  Check them all before you replace something so expensive.

    I love that show, Dead Like Me!  It turns into something of 'The F-Bomb Show' later on, but yeah, it is a very interesting show.

    want to try and incoraporate new and old words in my daily prose.

    thusly, thus word for today.

    My word of the day.

    Quintessence:

    1- In medieval cosmology, one of the classical fundamental elements, the fifth element that fills the universe beyond the terrestrial sphere.

    2- In modern physics, a hypothetical form of dark energy used to explain the accelerated expansion of the universe.

    3- The refined extract of something.

    4- The most typical example of a class, character or thing.

     

    Used in a sentence:  "The baffle plate from the transdisconspragulator fell off, leaking quintessence particles into the aether dissipator chamber."

    exissquintessentialism 

    thusly,  safer not to collide those with taxiyons 

    next word succinct  succintly

    there are groups re-writing historical documents angry  there was a quote in Bartlett's bppk from Thomas Payne and there seems to be no historical record of it other than the quote.

    wHERE to verify Oscar's quote  nothing to declare but my genius ?  Did the customs clerk blab it?

    not as it is being used in the UK   Here the employer will have access to government support to continue paying part of these furloughed employees’ salaries and protect the employees from redundancy. You need to see if you can get more details from your employer.

    The computer power supply is not blowing air out!  The fan seems to be running but I don't feel any hot air leaving the PSU.  So the hot air is stuck inside heating the power supply?  I should buy a new power supply after the governor lifts the stay at home order.

    What is a "brupt"?  Can you draw it?

    "Furloughed" -- From the LG dictionary.  Rhymes with "laughed".  Being loughed with fur.  A somewhat painful though exciting experience. devil If you get paid for it, that's a bonus.yes

    Hmmm, fan running but not feeling air?  Heat stuck inside?  Now think carefully, does the fan always run at full speed or does it only speed up when necessary?  Is there any indication that the PS is overheating?  Why are you considering problems with the PS?  Is this still that noise problem?  Can you isolate the noise?  Can you feel a vibration?  Can you stop a vibration when touching certain things?  Why is there air?  How many angels can dance on the head of a pin?  What is "42"?

    I baked a cake, two days ago.  Mmmm, cake! yes Gave some of it away, but have 1/3rd of it left.  Not a great cake.  Duncan Hines, Chocolate Fudge, with dark chocolate icing from a can but it's moderately dense, moist, chocolatey, and I keep it moist by putting a piece of that wonderful thickly sliced, moist, dark, whole wheat, Dutch Country bread in the covered cake pan to keep the remaining squares of cake from drying out.  Mmmm, cake for breakfast.

    It's Tuesday.  Made it to the grocery store and the post office again.  Hopefully it's the last time I have to go up the hill to the post office.  My streetside mailbox is installed and I've submitted the paperwork to have all my mail sent to the mailbox instead of my postoffice box.  Yay!  Big packages will now be delivered directly to my porch.  Yay!

    Today the weather is cool but clear.  Tomorrow will be cold, snow & rain.  So, I actually made two trips to the grocery store today because on Tuesday I get a 5% discount for being old.  Also, I couldn't carry everything I needed in one trip, and I didn't want to impose on the stock clerk to drive me home because of the social distancing thing.  My poor feet/ankles/knees/hip/lowerback joints and all the muscles that make them move.  I won't be walking right for several days.

    Finished 2nd season of "Game of Thrones".  Ooh, wars, dragonfire & zombies!surprise

    Well into 3rd season of "Ekaterina".  Plots within plots, betrayal, infidelity, politics, rebellion.

    Tomorrow is payday for my SS check. Yay!  Budgeting begins anew.

    Need to find a safe way to get uptown for laundry soon.  

    Neighbor actually ran the lawnmower for a few minutes today.  Did most of the front yard.  Snow tomorrow. frown

    I started bingeing on that show a few weeks back, but I got side-tracked and haven't finished the second season. I love it! It's giving me some serious nostalgia for the 00s world.

    What I can't really understand is how everyone seems to think Joy is such a terrible mother. Her way of dealing with the grief over Georgia isn't the most productive, but she's trying to keep it together in the only way that works for her. She's made mistakes, but they're not worse than most parents'. Georgia wasn't an easy person to deal with. She recognises that herself, after her death. Joy could have reacted a lot worse to Reggie's behaviour, but instead of punishing her she sincerely tries to help. Maybe I grew up in Dysfunctionville, but pretty much everyone I hung out with between Reggie's age and Georgia's age had far more hostile interactions with their parents at some point. Joy hardly ever even raises her voice.
