I'm going to order our #SSDs today. We won't complete these PCs by year's end, but both #lazyNephew and #Daddy_A are thrilled with them already. (Ryzen 2200, GTX 1060, 16GiB of RAM should be decent.)
-
I accidentally bought an extra-wide display monitor when I was in #Louisiana. Too short and too wide for my needs, so I sent it to #Daddy_A.
-
I should find out what parts are still needed. #Daddy_A, #lazyNephew, myself each getting new computers. I'm getting the parts, they are assembling.
-
Am I baa-d for occasionally calling #Daddy_A by his somewhat embarrassing childhood nickname? I get so much joy out of calling him that (mostly because I still see the twelve year old that was so shy that his science teacher started putting him in one-to-one situations with other students where he had to speak).
-
Got something for #Baby_A3. Also, her dad, #Daddy_A, received a monitor in the mail. #TGCGM https://nu.federati.net/attachment/193778
-
Also, #Daddy_A's replacement #PS4 is en route to #NE. #sonTwo handed it to a family member.
-
#Daddy_A to me, after I sent him the parts to build his own gaming computer: You’ve created a monster now. I want to buy so many parts now that I have a PC that is worth the upgrades.
He seems to be more excited now that I’ve seen in a long time.
-
Got my first glimpse of the lighted fans I bought for #Daddy_A in a video he sent of the new computer and its alternating red and blue lights. His cousin #lazyNephew got the same kit (identical computers), but his seemed to be constant red when I saw it.
-
@geniusmusing #NextCloud is planned to be part of the next generation of FOS (family online services), but the whole thing will have to wait until I have *time and energy to set it up (unless I can persuade #sonOne or @amic to set up and run it).
* time and energy — I was discussing (on #Wire) the greatly reduced energy and motivation that three years plus of travel and overtime has brought with #sonTwo and #Daddy_A and @amic earlier today.
-
I haven't found a box for #Daddy_A's shipment yet. I have another thing to get, so maybe I'll send both together.
-
@rye I usually ask @amic and @dog if I don't ask 29 year old #Daddy_A
-
#Little_Boy_A discovered that his Kano laptop has a user-modifiable #Minecraft ... he’s been exploring the mods he can make.
According to #Daddy_A, there is also a block-based programming editor that has a couple of different levels of difficulty, culminating in some use of #JavaScript.
-
#Little_Boy_A is as thin as his dad was at that age, but a little taller from what I can tell. I’m hoping he does not go through the same level of “horizontal enhancement” in that #Daddy_A did.
-
#Daddy_A has started assembling his new computer (Ryzen 5 1600, ASUS B350 motherboard, 16GiB RAM, NXZT case, etc), but during the process of getting it, we made a couple of changes, so he’s possibly going to be assembling a 2nd machine out of leftover parts (and some additional parts we’ll buy).
-
Conversation with #Daddy_A reminded me of https://youtu.be/FTMKn3erRc4 ... specifically the part where he says “our champagne and caviar is an RC Cola and a Moon Pie”.
-
#lazyNephew sent me a link claiming there is a shortage of GTX 1070 GPUs. He’s got the GTX 1060 right now. I’m going to order the 1060 for myself and for #Daddy_A tonight.
-
#sonTwo (age 30) and #Daddy_A (age 29) are trying to explain to me that the 29 year old just goes silent from time to time when he's focusing on something and that after all these years, I should stop thinking it is my fault when it happens.
-
#sonOne and #Daddy_A report from #KCMO and #Omaha that the grandkids did go trick-or-treating last night. He said nothing about the wheelchair, so I assume the 29 year old was able to walk around the neighborhood with the kids.
