You beat me to it, pio. I was going to quote and say the same thing. Yeah, we have a great number of dedicated users who all love the site and support it. Additionally, having dealt with you a lot privately and being former staff (which I accepted long ago now), I can confidently say that we have the best admin on Earth It's warm enough now where I live that I can wear the t-shirts I have. I will be wearing them to physical therapy, as well as restaurants. I tell people the url and what the site is about regularly because I want to see it grow (like in the Growing the Site thread). Great site with a great admin and a ton of greatly experienced, talented users in many ways.

Since everyone is saying use GSAT and I agree, here is a little imformation and help for you since you're new to it. GSAT stands for Google Stressful Application Test. It's what Google uses to stress test their servers. To get it, open a terminal and type: sudo apt install stressapptest To run it once it's installed, copy and paste this into your terminal: stressapptest -s XXXX -M 29000 --pause_delay 9999999999 -W --max_errors 1 XXXX seconds to run. 3600 is an hour and if you can pass an hour you are probably stable, though I did 4 hours on my current RAM OC. Hope this helps.

My brother said he should finally have his room at the house he shares with other people. Currently he's in a small space, a very small room and has no room for his stuff, consoles, or PC which is all in storage. As opposed to the Razer Kishi, he asked for a retropie and I can just write my backup of mine to an SD card for him. He also already has a Rock Candy wired Xbox 360 controller he can use with it. So that's what I am going to do instead.

It is mass produced, but it's fantastic. No lie. It's made by Sysco, which is a huge restaurant supplier. Sysco Shop SHOP.SYSCO.COM I have the Stereo Echo already, and mom doesn't like it. So I need suggestions for a medium roast, arabica, columbian coffee that is cheaper. Also, the 2 lbs. bag of Stereo Echo is like $50 USD for us (minimum, it might be more, I'd have to ask the fiancee). We have some already and its lasting. I don't go anywhere generally, I'm a shut in with poor social skills, so all that going to coffee shop/getting to "know" people/ asking for recommendations is not something I'm able to do. Not to mention we don't really have a coffee scene here, it's all chains. Please just suggest something similar to a medium roast, 100% columbian arabica coffee for much cheaper. She's trying to find one she likes that she can drink every morning and she's gotten to be very picky in old age... Thanks

Hey @ENTERPRISE Any chance we could get t shirts with the design I made that you're using on the desk mats? The site logo, with icons underneath that have a gradient. On a white shirt. I'd buy one of these if they were available.

I am very familiar with retroarch as well as EmulationStation as they are both on my custom retropie. Did not know they were available for Android. Thanks. Thanks, will do in October for my brother.

Hey @UltraMegacan you please post a link for me to the controller thing you have for Smartphone gaming? I'm thinking of getting one for my brother for his birthday. Also, considering I know virtually nothing about emulation on Smartphones, what's the best PSX emu and best SNES emu? Hopefully ones that are free and adless. Thanks buddy.

Hey @Slaughtahouse, are you familiar with Citavo coffee? Our local Italian restaurant we go to serves it after dinner and it's fantastic. We asked the waitress what it was and she showed us. We ordered some and I guess it's a restaurant supply company, but it was $75 for 24 2oz packets, enough to make one 12 cup pot. We are interested in something similar (but much cheaper)for my mom to drink every morning, so I thought I'd ask you. On the package it says 100% Columbian and 100% arabica. We want something that tastes similar. No fruity or nutty notes or anything, just strong coffee. Thanks bud.

Great Foldathon as usual, everyone! Thanks to @damricand @firedfly for running it! Thanks for the prizes, too, @damric!

Looks great!

Welcome to the site and nice hwbot! Glad to have you on the team!

Royal Kludge RK100 and CM Mastermouse MM520 representing

Hey guys I'm thrilled, I got my EHW desk mat today. Quality is amazing and I flattened out the one edge that was curling under and it is now perfectly flat first day without needing to put a book on it for a week like I did with my last one. Sitting good next to my Royal Kludge RK100 and CM Mastermouse MM520. Fair warning, this thing is very large! I didn't need to set monitor legs on top of my old one, this one I did. Width is roughly the same but depth/Y axis is much larger than most deskmats.

Alright I had my second hip surgery on Thursday, this time on the right. Pain post op was really bad like the car ride home, and my leg (front thigh) where they opened it up. Getting out of thd car was a b----. Also, had severe difficulty sleeping that night and had to take Benadryl (which I had quit) as well as other things to finally fall asleep at 3:30am. I sleep falling asleep on my back and wake up usually on the right side. Problem with that is, I have a brace I have to wear 24/7 for at least a month and being right sided, prevents me from laying on that side. However, last nights sleep was better and I slept in til 11am. Anyway, I am getting around fine just like the last time, supposed to be using crutches but I'm not :x Just taking smaller strides and keeping my weight on the left leg. I start PT on Tuesday which will be a strength/movement radius evaluation and then the next one will be actual exercises. Supposed to go for 5 months. Last time only did 3 and am still having relatively bad left side hip pains so I aim to follow through this time for the next 5 months. A lot of hip exercises work both hips at once, nature of the beast so I'm optimistic and looking forward to this helping. Hope everyone else here is pain-free or at least tolerating well. Regards guys.

Befote I had my 4090, I had 2x EVGA 1080ti ftw3. Each one was good for about 2mil ppd a day.

In bigred

Not marked but it's two pounds. To use it up before it goes bad or loses flavor, I'll probably switch to this from French vanilla every morning.

Yeah, this makes total sense with the 3xxx and 4xxx from Nvidia being such good folders with way less power consumption. This is cool even if the ppd is out of date. Looks close to my fiancee's 3060. Hat's off to you man, keep it up!

Yeah, the right shift on the Mini Cat 64 is not half size, it's single key sized.

Yeah, my fiancee uses right shift a lot and had to adjust XD she did eventually though and if I recall, her Mini Cat 64 has a half size right shift or possibly no right shift and she used that for a year straight no problem.

I'm a peon and don't build boards by buying the case and pcb and putting those together before putting in switches and keycaps. The first custom board I did was a GMMK full size with Box Jades. I added crafter's foam on the inside and a weight to make it more substantial and eliminate the metal clank sound it had stock with switches. Mine came with Gateron Brown switches and the stock keycaps, I feel it was easier and more convenient to just pull keycaps off and pull switches out, then put in the switches it's going to have and the keycaps. I also don't like or understand the appeal of waiting for years for stuff from Drop or wherever else when I can buy numerous boards off Amazon that are now already multi layered and packed with foam and weights. See the Keynovo/Yunzii if98 I just built for the fiancee for Xmas. Here's a link to it: Yunzii If98 We actually got the board for $90 on sale. So I appreciate the way you approach the hobby and your patience, but there's some really really good hot swappable boards on Amazon now. I don't have the patience though I could probably build a board from a case and add the pcb and stabs and everything. Here's how my fiancees build turned out. I also have no clue other than the links you posted where people get stuff or find out about the expensive boards, switches and keycaps. Building a custom one off Amazon or a Keychron already costs over $200.

This was a cool read and I'm envious of the older server hardware. Is this thing still in use?

If you have any boards you don't need, I'll take them, and some tactile switches to put in

*Raises hand to buying Amazon PBT keycaps, usually character themed* *Also raises hand to only buying Kailh box clicky switches* You seem very knowledgeable but I won't lie, your posts are like Chinese to me. A bunch of switches and stuff I've never heard of
