    Headphones & Audio Devices

    I game with a pair of Klipsch R-51PM 'bookshelf' speakers hooked up to my PC via a fiber optic wire. If my wife is sleeping I'll put on my PS5 headphones that connect via a USB dongle. Never really cared for earphones and all the recent 'headwork' makes it uncomfortable. I just see them reviewed...

    On becoming an electrician

    Safety is more and more part of the larger (IMHO) better companies. Last place I worked , I was a PM on multiple projects and everyone's $$$ was tied to safety scores and audits. All I was doing was apartment/residential stuff but even our power plant guys are the same way. Doesn't matter if you...

    If you are going with a prebuilt and rollback route, check that the rollback doesn't void the manufacturer warranty. It's VERY FUCKY/SHADY but the big companies were pulling that bullshit during Win7/8. Guy wanted me to rollback all his HP laptops so I did what I usually do and check for any OEM...

    EMF Scanners and Geiger Counters

    For the WTF on my above post, I live within 100 miles of the Nevada Test Site where atomic detonations were conducted. I assume everyone in Vegas has to sign the same thing as they are closer, but didn't read the paperwork like I do.

    EMF Scanners and Geiger Counters

    I've wanted a Geiger counter for shits for a while. When I signed the papers for my house, I had to acknowledge that I understood 'Atomic testing' had been done within 100 miles of my property. That was a new one.

    Computer Issues

    And It's only going to get worse. My new gaming rig is the only one in the house that has Win 11 on it. Wife used it and hated it. Unfortunately for her, she really needs an upgrade as well and it doesn't make sense (now) to stay with Win 10 on a new machine.

    Excuse the ignorance, but what is a DAC used for? This a headphone thing? If so how is it better than audio off the PC ?

    You already have the electrical tape, what the hell you need the bandage for? FYI black tape makes great field bandages if you don't have a candy ass.

    In this day and age of laser (no ball type ) mice, what even is the point of a mouse pad? Sincere question as I have not used one for decades.

    Computer Issues

    I had some a few PC's ago that became error generators . They sent me a new one without hassle. This was before COVID era bullshit though. I cannot even remember the last time I've used anything other than G.Skill. Bang for buck they are hard to beat.

    I have no fucking idea. But I will be here tomorrow when they come to run the new line and I will be looking at what they pull out. also to clarify, when we replaced the outdoor unit, we replaced the line set. 2 years ago, it had a leak that allowed all the coolant to leak out. Last year it was...

    @fris this hits very close to home. I have a 5 year old system that is AC only. Yesterday was the scheduled AC service , only it's completely lost all the coolant again. The line from the outdoor unit to the indoor unit has to be completely replaced. It's also only 5 years old. 2 years ago they...

    I don't know shit about Dolby vision other than the rips look green / purple like was shown before. Is there a VLC type program that can play them correctly or is this a hardware thing? Also does it look THAT much better? I don't have the $$$ to be an audiophile any more nor the space for a...

    Cost/time & maintenance of a water loop system vs pop in AIO and go for around the same temps = no brainer for me. My new system with the red devil 7900 xtx is the first build in a long time that I didn't buy a GPU with an AIO loop. Custom ones look better 1000%
