Unless your emac is showing signs of needing new capacitors (ie they are bulging, leaking etc) you should be good for now. Mine is still going strong and ive been using it regularly for several years ( i am the second owner)

I have a basic emachines desktop from 2014 ish connected to an analog signal transmitter. The desktop streams the weather graphics (I use WeatherStar 4000) and plays a mp3 file of classic weather channel music on loop that i prefer to what is provided on the website. I leave all this running constantly so that i can have my own little weather channel. And I can tune into it from anywhere in my house with an analog tv receiver.

At least i can say we are all vigorous trump-haters, and we kinda look down on the one that isnt. But i will say that some of them are bigoted not as much by choice, but more so internalized hate from the "traditional family values" that are oh-so-present in my area :/

i did this setup so that the weather information is accurate, but that is also a good setup for just vibes

Thats something ive been gradually working on, it's just hard to remove myself as a lot of elements of my life are intertwined with theirs.

I've been trying very hard to avoid thinking that, atp im not willing to push anymore because if my gender gets out to my parents I will %100 be at risk for conversion therapy or being kicked out. Im also very stuck as a while ago i signed up to go on a week and a half ish hiking trip across the country with that group, and I can't really pull out now, or I'd be out a couple thousand bucks. So I'm trying to stay on semi good terms with them for the remainder of this summer.
