Bad Capacitor – Thanks CapXon Caps and Samsung

bad caps / capacitors

Capacitor issues galore.

This weekend I serviced one more Samsung 205BW monitor dealing with a very infamous capacitor issue. One which has caused some attention and lawsuits similar to dell and other companies dealing with. A crappy Chinese capacitor company "CapXon" handing out a bunch of mid-range low-temperature caps inside of a confined space where there can be up to 4 or more high voltage back-lights going resulting in the insides of your monitor cooking and respectfully your capacitors overheating as well.

Ebay cel-phone battery rip-off

Well my dealings with eBay would eventually go sour and have a rip-off.

It's just funny that it happened on such a crap product. I wanted to get a battery for my Palm Pre' because surprisingly I actually use it for work for closing out work orders. the battery that's in it works but the charge only lasts for maybe 20 minutes before it powers down. I wanted to get a new battery for it. I've already hacked it bypassing the activation screen so we can at least use the wi-fi and web-browsing capabilities of it.

Fursuit designers and mascot creators in Wisconsin.

Fursuiting title

Need a Fursuit or animal mascot in the Wisconsin region?

Note: this was sitting on one of my old websites. It's still a good article. So I'm posting it here! K-Thanks-Bye!

Fursuit'ing and/or Animal mascot is the art of acting inside of a giant acrylic fiber suit that many of it's practices can be commercially dated back to the age of Walt Disney's theme parks. You can even go farther back dealing with paganistic religions that deal with dressing up in the pelts of animal skins that are akin to your personal spirit. But That may be pushing the topic of this article farther then I would like to go.

From Pi to Ouya

Ouya blog page

Moving towards Ouya

Done with the Pi and onwards to securing an Ouya it has certainly been a while since I posted on my own blog. I guess that happens when you're in the Christmas rush and your job relies on the notion that everyone needs their food and drugs. But I can save that for another story.

Raspberry Pi – Epic shopping binge!

Raspberry Pi Title Image

I want Raspberry Pi now! Can't wait to bake!

Today I will be purchasing a Raspberry Pi. And my reasons for doing so more-so on the ultra-light PC side of things versus the "build my own robot to destroy the world" type of investment. And just to let everyone know; I'm not going to gloat it's only $35 like half of the media outlets and advertisement campaigns say it is because that's kind of a load of crap.

From the depths of the furry vaults.

Albedo Furry Font title.

Albedo fonts for furry are available!

A long time ago in a furry fandom that seems very far away. There was a comic called "Albedo" by Steve Gallacci which talked about animals in a far-off universe dealing with political issues and intrigue.
