Stop playing games when you're done with them, whenever that may be:
"Although there are plenty of 'good' reasons for dropping a game[...]I’m also allowed to put a game down for no reason beyond simply having had my fill of it."

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm.
The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him.
Happy Black History Month.

trying to wield the tower of power has taught me a valuable lesson, just because the power supply is OEM doesn't mean it's not almost 40 years old and 40% out of spec
(it's supposed to be about 10 volts, not 14)
