Here's one last post for tonight, I restored and repaired this old pair of Soundcore earbuds i got from my Grandma Linda. She and my Granddad Dan found this pair at their old apartment that someone dropped. They are the Soundcore by Anker Life Note E's. Here they are mostly fully restored with some time, some tissue paper and some rubbing alcohol i got them cleaned and fully working again.

The blue rubber tips are spares from another pair of Soundcore earbuds the originals where Black but couldn't fit my ears well.

Right now, I'm waiting at a Good Year auto center to get my son's Toyota minivan oil changed and doing a high milage service package.
I used to do all the oil changes and tire rotation to all 5 family vehicles, but I've just gotten too old to do all of that to save $100. Since I make well over that for each hour of over time I work, I came to the realization that all that messy hard labor and being underneath +3k lb vehicles just wasn't worth the savings any longer. Plus, it's 5°F outside and the garage is 40°F....cold!

How's it going tonight everyone? I have been inactive since after my birthday cause i was having fun on my free time looking up and watching videos of Apple computers old and new for fun. Although i considered getting one of these old but beautiful beasts the Mac Pro from 2006 - 2012.

Inside shot. (This is a pic of a dual CPU model from 2009 - 2012) These can single or dual CPU's That are Intel Xeon 4C\8T or 6C\12T and up to 128GB in 2010 - 2012

These old beauties over a decade later go from under $200 - almost $1,000 on the used or reconditioned market. Although these used to retail for several thousands or over $10k

These beautiful machines were phased out for this joke of a glossy trash can in 2013.

I've never been a huge Apple fan but they did make some nice looking stuff. The First Apple computer I used was the Mac Plus. A loooooong time ago. 🤣 View attachment 218205
I at one point wanted an IMAC since my old friends parent's had one but that was back in the Windows 8 era. My grandparents had an Apple IIe when my Dad and Uncle were little in the early 1980's. I never used an Apple computer in my life so far but i did use an IPAD for awhile which my Grandma now uses and my granddad has an IPhone SE. But me and the rest of my family uses Windows PC's and Android phones\tablets.
 
I prefer Windows PC's and Android platform mobile devices too. I used to heve to use Apple computers at work for a while, but never really cared for them. Windows PC's are much more customizable to your personal taste.

I agree with you on that i had been a loyal windows user since XP and i currently run both my Desktop and Laptop on 11 24h2 and have had little to no issues. The only time i had trouble with Windows was some of my old 7 machines would BSOD and be really slow but that was a decade ago. Man times have changed a lot i now have an 8 Core Ryzen desktop with an RTX 2060 Super build and a nice Intel I7 HP 2 in 1 laptop.
 
How's it going everyone on this nice Tuesday evening? Here's pics of my two PC's my custom AMD Ryzen 7 3700X\RTX 2060S gaming PC which also has 32GB DDR4 ram and 1TB NVME SSD with Windows 11 Pro 24H2 Installed (Originally had Windows 10 Pro). And a Asus TUF Gaming 27" 1440P 144Hz Monitor with my old Lenovo wired keyboard (Will someday upgrade to Logitech gaming keyboard) and my new Logitech G703 wireless gaming mouse. I originally built this machine in May 2020.
