There... I have finally done my introduction thread!

[KGIII]

Next...get that RGB strip controlled in Linux Mint.

I haven't ever really bothered making my cases look like Christmas trees. Though I did once have one that actually output a bunch of information on an LCD - such as fan speeds, temps, CPU usage, and stuff like that.

your intro was great

Thanks. I write a great deal, so it comes naturally at this point.

I might need to hire you to write some of my menu, . Of course, I guess you would have to try the items that are on it first, good Lord, I'm such a do-do sometimes. Well, enjoy y'all's day!!!!

 

[KGIII]

Well, enjoy y'all's day!!!!

Same to you and I am definitely not seeking employment. If anything, I'm trying to learn to do less.

I never did in all the builds I have ever done. But was just looking at a fan extension cable for the rear better routing of that cable, 4 bucks. But right next to that at Microcenter is RGB's had a 12 inch for 7.99 Oh well, MB has RGB so yeah had to. ASUS has Armory Crate download to control them. When I am playing music thru Clementine today it syncs with the RGB....pretty lights. Other than that I put them in Breathe mode like the Soundcard portion of the MB, on the rear edge.

I do like a back-lit keyboard as I do a lot of computing in dim rooms. I don't have them pulsating or anything.

Wellllll, now that you mention keyboard. Had been using an older like 85% size acer. UNTIL, yesterday.

Had to run to store, new car battery, yeah. Groceries, and some spray air for dust.

Geeked out again, and grabbed an LED backlit one 20 bucks. Was only gonna get a normal one. 15 vs 20 bucks, at the store up the street. RGB colors subtle, but enough to see. Add that to the list I am adding up money wise for this New Build. My name is Mike and I have a problem.

My name is Mike and I have a problem.

I can relate. I have a quantity issue. I have way too many computers.

I just bought this little number - just to test Lubuntu on it.

Now that I built this thing....it has sparked the inner nerd. Had an old PII bookshelf case I have now started Sat, doing some work to fit an old HP desktop/laptop board. It was mini itx, then was thinking if I can't get it all together I have larger cigar boxes.....a Cigar box pc. Keeps me outta trouble.

it has sparked the inner nerd.

I had fun geeking-out building the LinuxTips site and getting all the features to work together and stay stable while being secure.

My current project is turning a NUC into a router.

I've gotta have projects to keep myself busy.

I'm worse in person. I will chat your ear off, if it's a subject I care about. If it's not a subject I care about, I'll find a way to steer it in that direction!

my first nickname was ......... speedy.....

later in life, it became ........... havachat

 

[KGIII]

havachat

If someone responds to something online, I will almost always respond to them. It's not that I'm trying to get in the last word, it's that replying is just being polite!

 

[Mike13Foxtrot]

It's not that I'm trying to get in the last word, it's that replying is just being polite

Being polite and getting the last word.......

 

[KGIII]

Being polite and getting the last word......

Like right now?!?

 

[Condobloke]

You're close.... ....sort of....

This is a bit like Pete and Repeat went out in a boat. Pete fell overboard and was drowned.

Who was left?

 

[Nik-Ken-Bah]

I will chat your ear off,

That's alright as I listen more than I yabber

 

[KGIII]

Jump on in, the water's warm! (And not 'cause I peed in it.)

Pete's friend, of course.
