It's just not the same since they introduced Ethanol out here in the Midwest. And don't even get me started about Bio-Willie-Diesel! Pa-tooey! The aftertaste is dreadful. I don't know what I'm going to do when we go 100% electric in 2050. If we make it that long after Windows 10 expires. ?

Neither do all the pokes and boosters every single person here including the children got. But here we are. I just can't wait until I can get back to licking gas pump handles like the good il' days.

There's an old Benny Hill sketch about One Eye the cat. I probably shouldn't post a pic. It was a view of the cat walking away. ? @craigb, you seem to be in to kitty cat meme's. Care to take a chance? ?

I thought this was a joke but it's real! Here's a link to it on Amazon. I had my DAW set up in my dining room. LSS ... 18 of her people will be here in 20 minutes for a Christmas gathering, so I'm down in the basement hiding now. LOL! I set up my DAW down in the basement and the first thing I noticed is it's faster, and everything seems to work a bit smoother. Even the mouse lag on my TV/Monitor is noticeably less. I remember this has happened to me before and I asked about it a very long time ago when I lived up in Iowa, on the old forum. Moved DAW in the basement temporarily, and it worked and sounded better. I was at a loss. I got to thinking maybe it has something to do with being surrounded upstairs in the walls with the AC wires and they are creating EMF's and maybe that's effecting my PC. I don't have any of that in the basement. So I just did a quick search for EMF protection for PC cases and this USB Grounding Cable came up. There ain't no way in h e double hockey sticks I am ever plugging that thing in to a USB port. First of all ... what if some idiot accidentally wired the outlet wrong and reversed the neutral and ground wires or you have a voltage leak between neutral and ground. You'd find out real quick when you plugged this bad boy in. Holy smokes!

I wonder if Bob is related to the OEOHFPPE ...

Dark Reader works with Amazon, eBay, and the Presonus Forum too. Oh happy days. Edit: Google Drive and Photo's too.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. There we go. Thanks for the Dark Reader advice. Thankfully it works in Brave. I guess I can die, within the 3 years that Windows 10 will still be supported, a happy many now.

All I can think of when I see Bapu's image is Jennifer Aniston in Leprechaun 1. Oh Jennifer. ?

I chose the dark background in Windows 10, I can't on the forum. ? "Microsoft will end Windows 10 support on October 14, 2025.". I sure hope we have a tiny big more time than that.

That's funny! I have my desktop and Studio One and CbB all set to black. Well, Tungsten as CbB calls it. It truly blows switching from anything I'm doing to checking the forums. I immediately get a searing headache and sharp pains in my eyeballs. LOL. I needed a break and I've been buried in my DAW for 10 days now, 16 hour + days. The contrast is starting to get to me. And then I get a message this morning saying, "No joy for you!". LOL. I tell ya, I can't win for losin'. ???

See notice at bottom of screenshot. I'm running an Intel i6700K w/16GB RAM and 2 250GB SSD's and it doesn't meet the minimum system requirements for my upcoming forced update to Windows 11. What a C.O.S..

You get 2 gold stars for creativity on this one @Bapu. ?

I figured it's about all we could hope for. I got my 50" 4K TV working as a monitor really well but man, reading the forum actually gives me a headache. It's brutal on the eyes even with the blue blocker thingy turned on. BTW ... My old Geforce card was dying and I didn't know it until it finally gave up the ghost completely. It's specs are rated less than the CPU/GPU on my i6700K. That's sad. It's a 9500 IIRC. I had the GPU disabled on the 6700K to free up resources and I had one hell of a time going in to bios and enabling it with a video card that kept blacking out every 5 seconds. LOL. The TV is working like a charm now for DAW work. I imagine gaming wouldn't work, although it says it will. Afraid to go down that rabbit hole. TV says you can game, Shane buys video card, TV lied, Wife mad over $$$, Shane on self-cancellation watch. You know the story. I can't believe my DAW is 6 years old already. I've barely had a chance to use it until the last couple of weeks. It's like brand new. Getting sick of Ozone taking 25 seconds to load so I looked in to updating my CPU. I have the fastest one my Mobo will support so if I want to upgrade I have to replace the Mobo, RAM, and CPU. It never ends. Thinking of keeping this for the NAS server I want to build, 20 years from now, and upgrading to something new.

Please. For the love of God. All we want for Christmas this year is an option to make the forum page black instead of white. Our retina's are sizzling. Thank you.

Pretend it's my J/P bass and call it good. ?

Exactly. I've seen some house flipping shows based in Cali. Believe me, a beautiful recording studio in your back yard won't be a problem. LOL

Careful if you put any treatment on the ceiling. You wouldn't want to pull any wool over your eyes. Sorry, I'll go to bed now. It's late and I haven't had any beer.

I baked this today and was thinking of you paulo. Weird to know a 50 year old man wearing an apron was baking in his kitchen half way around the world thinking of you isn't it. I'm just kidding. I'm not quite half way around the world. Anyhoo ... here is a museum quality slice of Pennsylvania Dutch Shoofly Pie. I baked it myself. The secret is the cast iron. Perfect crispy flaky crust. Slightly gooey in the corners and a thin gooey layer on the bottom, perfectly baked in the middle, and crumble on top. Mmm.

Wow. That looks just like CJ's studio!

Craig, kiss my grits! So there's no misunderstanding, kiss my grits was Flo's catch phrase.

My pot smoking, long haired, non-bathing, Harley riding, 74 year old wanna be hippie father in law was recently complaining that they don't make lava lamps like they used to. Something about they don't flow like the 'good ol' days'. Of course, he says the same things about Harley's, weed, women etc. etc. ...

I made a virtual one of these. I use my Strat and slap Melodyne on it and drag it down an octave. ???

What they need to come up with is some sort of system where all the letters are displayed in some sort of logical sense from A to Z and then they spell out the full words so we understand what all these abbreviations mean. It got so bad at one of my old jobs that they had to put out a memo with a list of all the abbreviations and what they meant because nobody could understand the emails the corporate office was sending out.
