I upgraded to the Asus PN50 barebone with another AMD cpu. This time it's the Ryzen 3 4300U. This barebone is way easier to work with than the ASRock A300 before.
The old one will be used as a Linux test thingy.
A couple of weeks back I had 2 inflammations; one above the front tooth, later one above the right top molar. After the medicinal treatment three teeth had to go..to the market, which didn't leave much left in my upper jaw.
So today I have a (partial) denture. Not really a fun experience (anesthesia) but at least I have a full set o' teeth and I can smile again.
During World War II, the U.S. military needed to train as many men as quickly as they could. In those demanding circumstances, many new training methods were born, and most of those ideas focused on providing information using oversized graphic presentations. Posters, training films, and film strips were created (and supported by workbooks) for many topics — and particularly for small arms.
The concept of the double-size training aids took this idea one step further, providing a tactile, and instantly self-explanatory educational tool.
The visible operational features in the sectional training aid were color-treated to look like the real thing. The device is hollow and constructed of light aluminum, so although massive, it is not heavy. Simulated ammunition, made of plastic, was used to demonstrate how the magazine was loaded. A transportation/storage case was provided, and the plywood top of the case could be removed and used as a display base.
The M24 training aid is an oversized M1 Garand rifle. It is 86″ long, 19¾” high, and 17″ wide.
Poor bugger absolutely didn't want to leave the house. So the acme broom did the job. Unfortunately Mickey didn't survive, so I gave the snail mob in the garden a small job.
Electric pump! I had this shitty standing manual labor pump that never accurately told me the pressure. That's all in the past now!
This little pump pressurizes my bicycle tires to the correct pressure (8.5 bar or 120psi). No more hoping it will be enough..
Honestly of all the versions this is the one that worked without any issues. Now the only thing to try is installing the Nvidia driver and trying out some games or whatever.
