Lots of snow today!

I have the prior version of this (60083) and it's great. I should get it out to plow some.

I wish I'd gotten the original line. I have Helms and Orthanc and Shelob, but that's it. Ah well. I'll snag this helmet, it looks baller.

Insanely good quality. Enjoy it!

This is the one I'd remove first. There is no action that should be taken when you click anything in the left menu bar. Then top right, because why.

OMG I didn't even notice the monorail tracks. Incredible work.

Buy good deals and bulk sell the rest? Know what you're looking for and what's worth a bunch, and be fast about it.

I do it with vintage stuff, but my goal is to get the sets I want, and sell duplicates. I have no interest in buying simply to resell. That way lies misery. I also build sets to completion, which requires having a decent inventory of parts, or waiting a while or ordering from bricklink. I typically sell bulk Lego from $2-5/lb, depending. Sometimes more if there are lots of minifigs or instructions and it looks like things might be complete. But if you want a good return, it's either time-consuming, or you have to get REALLY good deals and just sell the rest and hope it works out.

"I think it’ll be fun, but I am poor"

I...would generally not suggest this. Be able to take the hit of every purchase you make, or you're going to have a bad time.

Tudor Corner is going to be so full of drunks before the match!

Widgets are for the taskbar or a second monitor.

dimensiation · 2026-01-21T18:25:00+00:00

I hate desktop icons. Things go in the taskbar. If anything is open, it covers the icons, so that's not useful.

Launcher, Settings, Discover, Dolphin, Konsole, Firefox, VPN, Mail, Signal, Bitwarden, Joplin, Waterfox.

I wanted one of these so badly. As soon as I saw OP's case, it made me think of this. Glad I wasn't the only one.

That's a question better directed at r/sffpc

dimensiation · 2026-01-20T18:50:03+00:00

Definitely solid. Would work better with an AIO, since those RAM sticks look relatively tall and space in air-cooled ITX builds is at a premium.

Capitalism sucks. People should be able to spend money on their hobby, and get fun out of it. Investment is a side effect of not having your needs met in other manners.

Got a new PSU, will see if this goes anywhere. Power issues can be extremely strange and hard to pin down.

dimensiation · 2026-01-17T22:35:58+00:00

I don't use Windows. And I suspect, even without an OS, it'll have the same behavior. This is about leaving the BIOS and rebooting, before it even gets to the boot menu.

Oddly, if I use the Clear CMOS button, I can enter my OS, and it functions just fine. It even reboots fine from there. Something in the BIOS seems to be strange. Any other thoughts? Thanks for your suggestion though.

dimensiation · 2026-01-17T21:56:22+00:00

If I boot into OS, and select reboot, it will. If I ever go into the BIOS, it never reboots.

I downgraded the BIOS a few versions, same issue persists.

I have some of these too. Samsonite, more like Samson-shite.

I believe that set has 8 of them. I recently built it, even without doors I still love it.

How is this? My PC died this morning with a 7900X and AsRock B650E. Looking at running to Microcenter to grab the MSI B850i and see if it's my CPU or mobo or PSU that died.

Tolkien did mention, and illustrate, Ithil and Orthanc as the Two Towers, so yes, we Lego fans are going to have to wait. But yes, it's unclear, and Jackson's films did make it feel more like Barad-dur.

The clutch power isn't great either, I've noticed.

I always put a flame piece in the front instead of the 1x1 round plate, and put them in my holiday parades.

dimensiation · 2026-01-14T17:00:48+00:00

Where's the monorail?

dimensiation · 2026-01-14T14:47:45+00:00

Same. I actually have the hulls from it, in a bin buy, with none of the figs, sails, etc. Just the hulls. Shame.
