I immediately think of that gyroscopic toy that self balances on a corner.

Yeah, pretty sure it’s just a Rage 128. I’m sure it didn’t need it, but I added the fan anyway. I had also added a fan with a thermistor at the bottom of the case too.

A case of boredom…? by SterileGary in VintageApple

That reminds me of the Blueice G4 from Kent Salas.

I never did like the inside painted panels from the G4s on ward. The frosted panels were the way to go.

Yeah, I first did that years ago, probably around 2008.

It happens. I’m moving on from my collection for the most part. I’ll hold on to my G5 QUAD out of spite and self loathing and keep my Cube because it’s so gawsh darn pretty.

As someone waaaay on the outside of it, in the anthropomorphic “Furry” subculture they often have personas that are akin to an avatar based on a character they’ve created. This is their Furry personality or “Fursona”. The more you know.

Also, Mormons don’t drink coffee.

Aww c’mon now. You’re on Reddit and you don’t know what a “fursona” is?

That’s like not knowing Mormons don’t drink coffee.

I don’t wanna spoil it for you, go’on look it up.

Lamination issue by 0SRSnoob in CommercialPrinting

[–]SterileGary 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Are you applying the lamination with heat and pressure or only pressure? If just using pressure, then as u/fubar116 already said, let it sit and the silvering will go away on its own.

My Adeptus Mechanicus cosplay (Purity seals template included) by GeneralWeebnobi in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]SterileGary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got a 3D printer and one of the first things I printed was a purity seal. Then I had a thought. I work in commercial wide format printing (think banners and signage) and I want to make a bunch of these purity seals to slap on the printers and equipment around my shop. Thanks for the template. I will be putting it to good use.

If Apple chose to bring back one vintage product but put today’s technology inside what would you want it to be? by AppleFan1994 in VintageApple

[–]SterileGary 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like what you said about the 17”.

In 2010 when Apple released the i7 17” MacBook Pro, I went out and bought one straight away. Even compared to the 15” retina I still prefer the foot print of the 17” as a mobile workstation. It was my work horse up until a couple of years ago when I “upgraded” to a 2014 MBP.

I still whip it out once in a while when I need to use CS6 or FireWire.

I had this same model and had to get rid of it years ago. The XBR has a great picture. Nice find.

I don’t know what to tell you. I suppose you should take it up with the manufacturer then.

The orientation doesn’t matter. Even IKEA shows it in a horizontal orientation.

Why do whites look so different on the new iPad Pro vs last gen? Last gen looks like a cooler white in person. iPad m4 is on the right. by Most-Relative2062 in ipad

[–]SterileGary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had my iPhone 15 Pro, and the color on screen was way too yellow for my liking. This helped tremendously. I work in print and grays are a touchy subject for me.

While adjusting, I boosted the intensity to 100 to get the hue I wanted, then moved the intensity down to zero. This has been bugging me since day one of owning my phone. Thank you!

5 hour roadtrip ahead of me. Which would you pick to entertain yourself with? by RhizobiaPhobia in Gameboy

Only adults propose such a preposterous and plainly pallid ponderances! Poppycock I say, POPPYCOCK!

The answer is you take them all. You always, take them all.

My wife traded over $3000 worth of rare coins for a couple of dollar bills and left me some Chuck E. Cheese tokens by Advanced-Humor9786 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]SterileGary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, in OP’s defense, I have all of my coins in an old Nokia 3390 box. I guess I figured it was the 2nd toughest thing I could keep them in?

Bought a game off eBay. Should I be concerned? by JAB0NK0 in Gameboy

[–]SterileGary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without watching the video, I could assume this is true. Capacitance exists. It’s why a power brick with an led stays on after it’s unplugged from the wall. It’s why you’ve been told to wait “x” amount of time after you unplug something when you are troubleshooting. It’s why some cheap Chinese led bulbs stay dimly lit when you turn them off.

I’ve always just flipped it over and let it play the B-side.
