Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[notabitail]

All-in-one is just too large, the CD player mechanism was dodgy, & we still had to add a fullsize separate keyboard yuch! Too much $$$ for such a large footprint. I went back to a compact ssd laptop, disabled the finger pad mouse & use my slanted ergonomic mouse, w/ a compact external ss? HD for my photo storage.

My DS bought us an obsolete Blue Ray player to add to a TV which we never had so DH added a screen to the Blue Ray to view Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, etc. I only watch Prime on it since I already like Netflix better on my laptop ~ but to each our own, eh? I want to dump the old Blue Ray but DH loves fiddling w/electronics to make them functional as long as possible. The two of you would get along famously about tech talk & chickens teehee!

You should tell him there's another tech nerd on here.

*cries in gaming rigs*
Hubby's computer is from 2020, he just upgraded video card and processor recently as well as new keyboard, mouse, and headset. But it should be able to handle new games for another 3-5 years. His was very high end and expensive.

I got my rig last black friday, it's mid-range for performance. It runs ARK: Ascended no issue so I'm happy. I also dabble in digital painting so I needed to go graphics intensive.

I have a laptop from I believe 2019 that is alright, it was mid-range and plays The Sims. We're going to do kiddo's schooling on it.

Is it Intel or AMD? I'm planning on going all AMD. The one I have has a Intel CPU and a AMD GPU.

Stop it with the snow pictures already. Geeze. It will be here soon enough.

Yesterday my feet were so cold I put the chooks back in the coop.

Thankfully today isn't that bad.

Move here. We don't really do snow here.

AMD all the way no intel or Nvidia crap in my house! They had a massive issue with Nvidia and games years ago, like 2014??? And we swore to never get another.

Tax, Nocturne being a cutie patootie.
Also, Versace's tail is nearly straight again. I think the muscle was kinked from being tucked against the door the other night.

I have seperated the cockerels I got from the farm and gave them some vet rx mixed with canned tuna. That will have to do for tonight.
I have also added ventilation to the plastic coop.

I've got at least ten NVIDIA cards here from various old machines. I dislike NVIDIA solely because of the issues they have with Linux. AMD was my choice of GPU since they play nice with Linux.

Almost every computer here save a few are Intel based. Intel used to be good, but from what I'm seeing I'm not buying more of their stuff anymore.

Tax:
Yet another tower that I have. This is the one that convinced me a desktop was better.

In today's Tuesday 2fer, Aurora is actually being nice to Hattie and cleaning off her beak. It doesn't happen often but this proof that it does occur.
