The newest Card Battles video closes the chapter on the first generation of DirectX 9 GPUs.

The GeForce FX 5950 Ultra versus the Radeon 9800XT

Can the last and fastest FX Series flagship redeem NVIDIA's troubled architecture?

I've never worked on an Atari MEGA ST2 setup before, and I hate working on CRTs. So obviously, this Saturday's noon stream will be working on @kefkafloyd.bsky.social 's SC1224 monitor which has lost its red.

A new genre of music: Songs that sound like they could be JRPG music, but were not composed for JRPGs

This is not to be confused with music that inspired JRPG composers (though to be fair some of that music would fit in the genre)

Just finished recording the narration track for the VCF Midwest video. It's a long one. In the next couple of evenings there'll be some quality time spent in Pro Tools.

I'm trying to report a power outage here at home, and National Grid is returning an HTTP 500 when trying to enter my account details

Gotta love it

Throwing this out into the universe:

Do YOU know the recovery CD number for an HP Pavilion 8670C PC (1999/2000, 600MHz PIII)? They're model-specific and instead of using model numbers HP used 8-digit codes. What's worse, the 8-digit disc code doesn't match the 8-digit code on the jewel box!

The script for the VCF video is finally done.

I won't have a chance to record it until Monday, but all 9,000 words are in the can.

What drives me crazy is that I can't get out of my own way about anything. The past month at work has been absolutely brutal in terms of workload and it's negatively affecting everything outside of it

Been pushing through on this video but god it's been such a slog

"You know, studies show that using a phone while driving is more dangerous than drinking and driving. That's why I chug two whiskey sours before hitting the road in case there's some maniac out there on a cell phone."
