[PlayStation 2]

I made a bad mistake today.

If that doesn't give it away, I bought a Wacom Intuos drawing tablet today. I also found some retail Betamax tapes!

[kaiju_wars]

Went game hunting today.  My physical copy of Va-11 Hall-A on PS4 finally showed up, so now I have a physical copy on all systems that got one.

GamereNexus 2020 PC Disappointment T-Shirt:

And an electric motorized standing desk from the Brand Sitag bought for 714 CHF used, it's worth over 2000 CHF. The table top is 180 x 90 cm:

So as you can see this means a new room layout and a better desk setup once I have an amazing next gen HDMI 2.1 Monitor and a big LTT Mousepad.

I just bought this beauty (I didn't build it, it's bespoke but....technically not a pre-built I guess?) 

BIG step up from an i7-6700K and a GTX 1080 - Games run amazingly at 1440p and my first experience with RTX (and VR since I bought a VR Headset recently).  

Specs in my signature

Would you say the substantially higher price tag compared to a regular desk is worth it in your experience?  LOVE the wood finish though.  That's always been something other desks have lacked.

Oh yeah standing Desks are worth 100 % if you can spend that amount of cash on it.

A little something for my mom.

Not the most exciting thing out there, but the recent storm here in Texas motivated me to tear into all the old Coleman camping equipment I have, and I needed a few repair parts. Plus, one of these days I'll go camping again.

Picked up the X10 board off ebay and pulled the i5-4590 out of the garbage here at work.  They'll be going into a 1u chassis to server as my Guacamole remote desktop gateway.  

[Dedayog]

With the used market so ridiculous right now ,I sold my truck and scored an even more ridiculous price for this...

I have to ask, where do you work that there's 4590s sitting in the garbage?

We had to retire a few old Optiplex machines that were not on our network.  They ran pieces of equipment that have been upgraded and can now run on Windows10 machines.  The old machines get destroyed so I asked the guy if I could pull the CPU and RAM out of one.

Well I got this last Tuesday; I just never posted about it. The little chariot was a free gift when you got The Big One (LEGO Colosseum). The Colosseum is in my room (in box), which I don't feel like taking a picture of.

I didn't take a picture of the product when i got it, but i got 4 hue color rgb br30 light bulbs. I've been saving up for them and they put quite a dent in my pocket. Although, they're quite nice. I'd been meaning to get them for a bit now. I've wanted a light that i can dim and sync with my hue light strip under my desk, and this was kinda the only option. I think they're pretty nice if pricy. Although theres still a bit of software trickery but they basically work well enough. I just wish they weren't so expensive. Yes, ik theres cheaper options, but this is the only one that can sync to hue and aura. Also, there were such a bitch to find, but i got em.

LTT Tumbler.  Little surprised by how...subtle the LTT branding is.  I figured it'd be more prominent.  I had to take like 3 pictures to get the right light to even make it visible, and even then it's not very clear.

Have you installed it yet? On mine the white VGA Check LED sometimes (most of the times) doesn't turn off after boot, which is sooooo annoying.
