Scratched Case, RAM and Graphics Cards

So this is what the face of my PC looks like, sigh. After the move I noticed this dang annoying scratch on it. Everything else was perfectly fine but this and the fact they did NOT centre the chair in front of the TV and I can't manage to move it myself. I did ask them to centre it and they moved it a bit but I failed to notice it's not even close to being centred. The scratch is a pain in the ass. The case for this PC was made for this PC and will can not be replaced with a new one. The motherboard is proprietary to this dang case and won't go in another one. There is also no way to order a case for the poor older thing. Someone said, claim it on insurance. Well that would be a pain in the ass as a case is worth $60 tops and my deductible is $200, so why would I bother. Not like I can get one that will fit in the first place. Well this is what happens when disability pays the lowest bidder to move you. You get people who don't really do the job the best. At least they did not mess up the TV or my monitor. That would have been a very big piss off and they would have seen me in small claims after that. Being it casts $100 to file a claim now, it would not be worth it for the case.

BTW I recently thought of maxing out the memory in this thing as I have 24GB in there and it maxes out at 32GB. I looked it up online and the best I can do for this older memory is way out of whack to what I paid for the 16GB that I put in the get it to 24. Man I thought electronics got lower in price as they got older. I guess I was wrong. LOL. I mean it is 3x the price I paid for 16GB. I doubled the graphics card power when I put in the extra memory as well. This thing only came with a 1GB graphics card and I got one from a friend who buys in bulk as he does custom builds and it was not expensive. There is now a 2GB card in there with more than twice the performance stats. It helps for rendering video and going 3D renders with Bruce and Poser.

LOL that reminds me I had someone on YouTube saying to me that a graphics card does NOT affect video render performance. LOL. Nice try kid... There is a reason that PC's that are designed to do a lot of video rendering have more than 1 GPU in them. The best ones actually have 3 of them and they are more top end than I could afford for an entire computer. But you can't argue reality with people who are sure they know it all. The fact that the editing software actually recommends a good GPU is beside the point I guess. LOL

HOW TO FIX BLOGGER FROM DOUBLE SPACING LINES OF TEXT

Image
When you click on the editor to type text, it changes to "Paragraph" instead of "Normal". This causes there to be a double space between lines. If your trying to do a list, this is a serious piss off. So you have to click where it now says "Paragraph" and set it back to "Normal". I've had it a couple times not stay, and had to select all then set it to Normal again. As well it puts in a leading space (indentation of 1 space) you may want to delete as well, or your list won't look quite right at the top. It used to stay where you put it, but now it just up and changes it to Paragraph for literally no reason - even if you first set it to Normal - you click and POOF it changes.

Matilde Vicenzi Cookies Are Great

Image
Was sent these by a good friend for a birthday gift. They are really very good. Quite possibly the best cookies I've had in years. I tried them all, and I like the white one you see in the bottom picture, as it had a lemon taste to it. Some had a bit of liquid chocolate in them and where very good as well. Like normal, the ones with the bit of jam in them where a bit too sticky and chewie. But I seriously enjoyed all of them. These are great. I'm going to look them up on Amazon and if they are not too much money, I'm getting more for Christmas. OK just looked it up and NOPE, it's $28 a can. They are very good, but that is a bit out of my price range. But the usual Christmas Danish Butter Cookies are also kind of a lot of money now as well. They are also a bit moist, and not super dry like usual. Also not powdery like a lot of them do. I'd give these an 8/10 and would recommend highly.

YEAH THAT'S NOT A SCAM, I'LL EMAIL YOU RIGHT AWAY LOL

Image
 The anatomy of a scam. This is the exact format I've seen several times on other people's videos on YouTube (in the comments). See if you went to my channel the latest video would be at the top of the list and this was on an older one. There is literally an email link in my profile on YouTube and it was not used (even if it was I'd not fall for this crap). They use the words "your family" to make you react emotionally. You have thoughts like "Is someone hurt or in trouble"? This is almost always a way to try and get "money to your family member in need". Or it's a way to get information out of you. Sometimes it's a long lost relative you never freaking heard of leaving you money. There will always be a fee you need to pay for the legal matters to be cleared up and you to get the money. SCAM. It's interesting I've seen so many people reaching out on YouTube to people about "their family" this few months.
