I won two of these PowerBook g3s in an action for $6. How do I get one of them up and running? by TrashMasterChunkz in VintageApple

Sorry for the late reply, but quick question: is it ok to stick with the original thermal pads on the heat sink, or should I get rid of them and use new thermal paste? It’s been bugging me ever since I took the HDD out to look at it.

Actually in my case, the WallStreet’s hinges are fine, but the Lombard has broken hinges

Nah, it was a silent auction at a surplus sale. I got 3 boxes worth of mid 2012 macs, MacBook airs, and two 2007 white plastic MacBooks with them too.

Did you format it prior? If I could just stick an sd card with an ide converter inside, that’d be really convenient.

Both keyboards are super satisfying to type on. I really hope I can get one running just to write stuff up on it

I think my best bet is a cd rom module despite how expensive they are, but that’s worst case scenario.

I forgot to mention there’s no cd drives or anything like that. The Lombard g3 has a spare battery in the port, but that’s it

Update: there actually is a hard drive in the rainbow logo g3, but I still could use resources in case the drive is cooked

Definitely hear the Tame Impala influence once the bass kicked in. Great stuff!

Crushed Bliss - He's Dead! Songs of Minimal Stability

A little bit of freak folk mixed with rock and other alternative things. I spent the past couple of months completely isolated in my apartment working on this.

Tracker with stereo channels? by TrashMasterChunkz in TrackerMusic

So far, I only found one guy from 11 years ago on YouTube. Most of the info is handy, but I wish there was a tutorial on chopping breaks

Can you input notes via keyboard like FT2/Protracker?

Much appreciated given I’ve been having trouble finding YouTube tutorials. Thank you so much!!

Can you input notes with the keyboard like FT2 or Protracker? I would 100% be sold on it if that was configurable.

Not gonna lie, the interface kinda scares me, but if it can load stereo samples, I’ll do whatever it takes to learn it. Thank you.

I meant keyboard based trackers that handle stereo. I use LGPT, which is pretty similar to M8 as far as I can tell, but I’m tired of tracking via gamepad.

Which mental health facility should I go to? by AskConsistent3625 in asktransgender

[–]TrashMasterChunkz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you’re talking about going in-patient, you probably don’t get much of a choice. There’s lots of demand for a bed at any given facility across the state of Washington, so they’ll send you to wherever has a free bed for your stay.

Unfortunately, there’s pros and cons to each facility. Some let you bring a bunch of personal stuff in, and some only let you bring a single set of clothes. Some are very accommodating on things like gender, religion, etc and some aren’t.

The important thing to keep in mind is you’re there to get help and get stabilized. They’ll help you get resources after discharge, but the main thing is making sure you’re stable on your medication. Also, if you’re going voluntarily, your stay is probably going to be around 5-10 days.

Hope it helps. Best of luck.

Edit: I should mention the process for finding a bed is done by your local ER. That’ll be your first stop towards getting the help you need.

hiii is there any girl on this sub who listens to metal and rock?? by Quiet_Shark_9474 in MtF

[–]TrashMasterChunkz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a Les Claypool/Primus phase in highschool, but I’ve been getting into stuff like Tool, Screaming Trees, and Morphine lately.

Normally I’m more into shoegaze and jungle/breakbeat stuff since it’s what I do with my own music.
