I usually buy ThermalTake power supplies, they have been pretty good to me and don't break the bank.

No name = no buy. Learned that lesson when a no-name that came with a case I bought proceeded to nuke a motherboard, stick of RAM, and a network card all in one go. Shot little bits of MOSFET case plastic all over when they grenaded, too.

Something from the dress up closet when you walk in, also make a lot of Monty Python references with a lovely British accent because that poo poo never gets old.

Get GPU-Z and check your card temps. I figured out something was wrong when one sensor was 30 degrees C higher than the other two, and when I pushed the heat sink/fan down (up, actually, but w/e) onto the card the sensor reading shot up to 104 and the fan kicked to max speed. :v:

So after dusting everything and seeing that I'm only at 50C on an oc'd GPU I decided to scan for viruses since it wasn't lagging like this last week and my brother was using it for his homework and is not exactly good at computers.

I now own 4 current pairs of glasses. At ~$25/pair ($40 for the sunglasses), who the gently caress cares if one gets broken.

I usually leave my glasses in the car if I'm gonna be in a pit though.

Where the hell are you getting glasses for $25?
Even on goggles4U, my prescription is around $100, because high-index lenses. All kinds of surcharges when you get lenses at 7.5 and 10.5 sphere. You can also guess that leaving my glasses in the car is not an option...

Bloody hell, can't wait to see what fucks up next in my life. Last year has consisted of fuckall work, severely depressed eleven year old daughter, custody battle over said daughter, the dog getting shot and now the real estate kicking us out at the same time as my partner has been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. Thats just the big poo poo, Today we're of to the doctors too do a carers payment application So hopefully I can stop looking or work at least for a little while, I'd be hosed if I actually got a drat job at the moment.
Ah well at least the chronic testicle pain seems to be mostly solved, I just have to deal with it until everything heals properly.

e2: forgot the lancet holder thing (whatever you call it, I call it the pricker) when I went to work. The :gonk: looks I got when I just took a bare lancet and poked my finger with it to check my blood sugar... priceless. People seem to think it hurts horribly even with the pricker, but if you have the depth set right, you don't feel anything except the pressure of the pricker against your finger. And supposedly the one I use (Bayer Microlet2) is one of the more painful ones. :iiam:

Truth. When I did kitchen work, if I left for the night without a new scar somewhere on my hands or arms, it usually meant it was a really slow night. Kitchens are loving deathtraps.

I got mine on Zenni Optical. $35 shipped and they're at least as good as anything I've ever gotten from the local optometrist or chain store. They can manage anything from +12.00 to -20.00 sphere and +6.00 to -6.00 cylinder for astigmatism. As long as you don't have a scary-bad astigmatism (like my wife, with her -10.00 cylinder), you can't really beat them for price.
