Local moth fairy loves lämp, more at 11 @elfi@pixie.town

I guess I shouldn't feel too frustrated about this--it was a hand-me-down offered to me in place of hauling my old junker across the continent--I just feel like I got the rug pulled out from under me on this one

The rug I placed down by doing all this absurd PCI passthrough shit because I wanted to sandbox Windows

uuuugh I still can't believe my computer's PCI Express topology is such a lemon

can't really do anything but just... not shop Intel, which I already was planning anyway. This wouldn't have even been a problem to begin with if their IGP wasn't such a hot mess

...Ryzen is still the current AMD architecture, right? ;;;;

Does anyone have any recommendations for Ryzen hardware that I could pursue? Gonna need a decent CPU and a motherboard with dual 16x slots + proper IOMMU isolation between them.

Well, this has been a whole buildup to nothing. Turns out the problem I'm running into is rooted in the CPU, and there's... nothing I can really do except replace half my computer .-.

I could go on an endless tangent of expletives at my computer but I am just... tired

Sleepy but hype for morbs

Also while cleaning I had an idea of what kind of base design I wanna pursue, so I'm looking forward to working on that in blender

My 3D printer's giving me some grief again, so I may have to replace the FEP, but I found a good streamlined cleaning strategy! So I've got a lot of otherwise-failed prints with good detail that I can use to test Contrast-style paint formulations on

I am starting to sound too old and crotchety to even put up with my own ass, I should finish my sleepytime tea and go to bed

Once again, I can have all the ideas in the world until a cute moth passes my vision, and then they become all I can think about
