Made a supreme pizza tonight. It was a lot of work, but so worth it!

I mentioned this a while ago but there's this grayish-brown-tiger striped cat that's a regular at the kibble buffet. And it has this very odd reddish splotch from neck to middle-back overtop the "base" markings. Virtually all of my other ferals are some combo of black and white except for "my" 3 year old feral that's solid black.

I wasn't feeling well earlier in the week and didn't feed them for a few days and that got some of the younglings feeling very 'food insecure.' The older ferals were just like 'yeah, don't worry. The dipshit flakes out occasionally but he's mostly reliable.'

edit: I think one of them tried to bribe me with a mouse but that could have been part of a fever dream.

I wonder how Imgur even makes money to pay for hosting tbh.

I was actually self hosting all my images for a while then the php script broke and I wanted to replace it with something better and got lazy and never bothered. All my old hosted image links still work but I got rid of the php script.

PSU got fried while doing an upgrade to a new CPU and case. MOBO is dead as well. Old CPU seems like it might be working, new one is iffy, GPU is iffy. $$450 upgrade (left over Christmas and BDay money) is now up to $900 🙄. Now I wish I just built a Zen4 system from scratch.

maybe you should have unplugged it, waited til caps discharged before you started work?

Lol, no, I’m an old hand at this. I did modify a cable on the PSU, which I have done before. That said, I had better vision that before - so it’s likely I screwed up. Boohoo.

Pfft - I imagine you have never pushed your system to a breaking point :p

Haven't done that myself in years. The cable mod was a mistake - turns out I didn’t need to do it 🙄

Local sawmill selling rough cut 2x6x12 for $6 each, very tempting... Not actually ready to start building yet though so I'll hold off. I don't even have a place to store it yet. I always forget that place exists and they have really reasonable prices. Almost wondering if it's even worth setting up my own mill, I can just buy from them. Although being able to mill trees that I fell myself on site would be nice too.

Going to start on a pole barn build soon, just a giant tarp shelter basically, once I have that then at least I can store stuff like my ATV, misc supplies, lumber, firewood etc.
