False. I only ever had one awesome Halloween costume, and that was 13 years ago.


IBTNP didn't realize or notice that.

True, I noticed it but I didn't realize it.

A few weeks ago, Number One Son got all audiophiley. He scored a pretty high-end Sony amp/equalizer for dirt cheap at a thrift store. We got my old Dual turntable repaired. Then, at another thrift store, two sets of big-ass speakers. Total outlay for all of the above plus a hundred feet of speaker wire -- just under two bills, most of which was covered by NOS' non-denominational winter holiday cash from his grandparents. We set this all up in the upstairs of the barn. I hauled up a stack of old vinyl. Halfway through Procession/Story In Your Eyes (from EGBDF) I was weeping like a lonely old codger remembering his first love. No matter how good digital gets, there is nothing like dragging a needle through a vinyl groove and blasting the vibrations out of big-ass speakers. THIS IS WHAT MUSIC SHOULD SOUND LIKE.

NOS has been buying some of his newfangled music on vinyl. The Sword, as one might expect, sounds awesome.

I haven't brewed in years, but I had some pretty good results. I mostly used the so-called "beer in a can" pre-hopped malt extracts. Add sugar and a little water, boil, pour into more water in a carboy, drop in the yeast, slap on a fermentation lock, wait, bottle, wait, drink. Serious home brewers scoff at "beer in a can" brewers, of course, but it can't be denied that the results can be great. And after amortizing the equipment, I got the cost per 12 oz bottle down to 11 cents (10-20 years ago).

The biggest bugaboo were the bottles. You need sterile, nice looking bottles that can be capped, and lots of them. Home brewers get pecuniary and fascistic about their bottles. They guy who introduced me to homebrewing would not let you touch his bottles of beer, far less drink from the bottles. He's pour the beer into a glass, then immediately rinse the bottle with hot water. If you don't do that, and if you leave so much as a speck of beer in the bottle, you'll be soaking it in bleach solution before the next bottling.

I've used purchased bottles, but that seriously raises the cost of production. I've used reclaimed bottles, but that took hours and hours and hours of soaking to remove labels, bleaching, scrubbing. My best solution was to use reclaimed mineral water bottles. We drink a lot of mineral water. So for my last several batches I saved all the bottles with their screw tops, and didn't even bother to remove the labels unless they were given as gifts. I figured the bottles were already sanitary enough, and I never had a problem. The only iffy part was the screw tops, because the final fermentation occurs in the bottle, and the caps have to withstand some pressure. But since the mineral water was carbonated, I figured the caps would be sturdy and airtight enough even when re-used, and again I never had a problem. Another plus -- these were 1 or 1.5 liter bottles, so I didn't need as many.

But even that got to be a little too much. I tried my hand at home wine making, with some decent results, but that was even more hassle and mess. Around that time, I changed jobs, and lost a lot of my free time, so I had to let these hobbies go.

I will some day return to either or both, but with some changes. If I make wine again, it will be in barrels. If I home brew beer again, I will not bottle the beer --  I'll use a keg.

Coworker: What's the username for the $app account?

Programmer: Username?

Coworker: Right. The username.

Programmer: Username.

Coworker: Right.

Programmer: Okay.

Coworker: ...

Coworker: So... the username.

Programmer: Huh?

Coworker: What's the username for the $app account?

Programmer: USERNAME?

Coworker: YES.

Programmer: THE USERNAME IS 'USERNAME'.

Coworker: ...

Coworker: Oh.

Me:

Coworker #1: :(

Back in the olden days I liked to periodically change the supervisor account password to things like "pissoff", "noneofyourdamnbusiness", "howthehellshouldiknow", "iforget", etc., and wait for one of my co-admins to ask me what the new password was.

*rattles off typical smartass nonsense*

*remembers who he's dealing with*

*rapidly employs backspace key*

Ok, that was close.

Anyway, someone should correct me if I'm wrong, but:

Using a power supply rated at a gazillion watts will not fry your motherboard. The opposite, however, is true.

You need a power supply that delivers adequate wattage to cover the power consumption of all the PC components, or things will overheat, fry, and possibly blow up.
