a) Spilt milk on it last week, which required full disassembly and cleaning. Some of the keys' action is a little messed up now.
b) Got tired of browns, wanted to try a new switch type.
c) The Das was never my first choice: Duckys were not available in Canada until a few months ago.
d) I have...
OH NO HE DINT.
Decided to get MX blues this time, see if the clicking makes my typing better. Ducky actually uses different (green?) switches for the space/shift keys (unlike Das), so this will be an adjustment.
Went with orange, to have the least eye-piercing blindingness at night. I...
Place was a lot cheaper when my parents settled here in the 70s. Still living with them: everyone in my life lives here. Will move out eventually, but at the moment I'm working on building up as much job experience as I can.
Cost of food, booze, and gas is higher in Canada, evening out the minimum wage disparity. Also, $1300 gets you a basement dwelling with 1 room, in my experience. Depends on where in town, of course, but it's pretty unsustainable. Living wage is about $24 an hour here.
Fulltime job, partner, all the real life things. Being a nerd is next to impossible when you're responsible for personnel management or essentially a floor manager. Too much shit on my mind after work, too much responsibility, too many people I have to babysit. Seriously considering learning...
The word audiophile is relevant here. It's for obsessives. When I really want to test a new pair of headphones I pick a song I've listened to thousands of times--the kind of song I'll have in my head on my deathbed--because I've listened to it so many times on one pair/system I will notice all...
Hard to go wrong with Senns. Very popular, middle-of-the-road sound quality, good durability. Too bass heavy for my taste.
I have a boner for Audio Technica despite never owning them (would love some ATH-A900s), but these will definitely have better sound (unsure about durability)...
Remove the battery, turn off power supply until standby light turns off. Turn PSU back on and power on without battery. Still cycling?
Also yes, your graphics card is not the cause of the cycling, in this case. If it's not the battery, then it's your PSU or your mobo.
Exactly why I recommended using known RAM. There's more to RAM issues than memtest. Black screen/rebooting system can be a variety of things, not just a graphical problem.
Also, memtest is not foolproof. I've tested DDR3 before that passed memtest but would crash the system every single time...
