and it's easy to make it ~2000 MHz

s0n1c.bsky.social @s0n1c.bsky.social · 11h

and unfortunately, I'm back to the 1900 MHz native Socket 423 CPU... it seems the adapter makes it somewhat unstable :(
I also had to reinstall Windows, so I decided to try and see if XP SP1 would be faster compared to SP3, and it slightly is, probably because there is no DEP 🤔

I'm surprised the leads are long enough to fit into the zif socket 😅

or a bad solder joint that got fixed during the swap 🤔

s0n1c.bsky.social @s0n1c.bsky.social · 13h

yep, still works

Your subconscious blocked the painful memories 😆

For example, in my watch later playlist there were 64 videos, now "9 unavailable videos are hidden" and I don't even know what videos they were...

If you like something on YouTube and it's not super popular or could be mistaken as copyright infringement, download it after watching it (use yt-dlp or whatever), or it could be gone tomorrow...

From the DataHoarder community on Reddit: YouTube, either by human error or otherwise, seems to be making some old videos with low views inaccessible: "We're processing this video. Check back later."

I think this illustrates it better, at least the shared nature of things

Yep, without that sharing fpu stuff

it is definitely installed, I was accessing it recently from a WinXP PC

strange, I have Win10 on my NAS and it is accessible via SMB 1.0 I enabled long long time ago

and some CPUs to test it with

Is it only W3.1 affected?

Capacitors as they are found in nature 😁

isn't there some reproduction boards? I wouldn't trust this rotten thing 😅

s0n1c.bsky.social @s0n1c.bsky.social · 3d

but why bother with the SCSI if XT-IDE exists?

old macs :)

Although, would a sound card even work with it? 🤔 If it was meant to work with a CD-ROM.

s0n1c.bsky.social @s0n1c.bsky.social · 4d

but also, why would anyone use it on PC, if you can buy a $10 PCI SATA adapter and $10 used SATA SSD? 😆 well, maybe on something super old and if you have an ISA SCSI, or a sound card with SCSI 🤔

never realized 'a lot of people don't realize it' 😆 it's a SCSI, why wouldn't it work? 🫣

BlueSCSI @bluescsi.com · 9d

Yes! BlueSCSI works on PC's but a lot of people don't realize it. Watch
TME Retro setup their PC with a #BlueSCSI

BlueSCSI works with PC's now?

Unfortunately, it started acting up again 😒 I may try transplanting the GPU from some shitty 64bit agp FX5200, if I'm in a mood for some pain and suffering with a very little reward 😆

these cards where shipped in a undersized box with one layer of bubble wrap and touching each other... from China, and arrived quite beat up :(

P.S. I call this procedure "Tickling the core" 😆 because when the balls melted, you're very carefully tickling the GPU sides with a small 🪛 or tweezers, and any wrong move and you're done 😅
