    Maybe if he was a dick. Plus costs for all that usually outweigh the point alot of the time. 3 years in jail is a big enough punishment.

    I was playing BeamNG as a huge spider decided to sprint across my keyboard. It came out of no where and startled me.

    How many more? ;)

    I'm in the same boat at the moment, but only until the end of the year. Engineering ftw :) got offered 2 engineering jobs today too, stoked.

    ^^And yeah that's what I'm doing with my life now, and why I'm not around so much

    One more year after this. I am on a 3 year Games Computing course, which is essentially computer science with a few modules swapped out for games related stuff like OpenGL.

    Engineering is cool, Making things with my hands is something that interests me (no idea if you are on the more practical or maths side of things though). Unfortunately I doubt the landlord would be down with me getting a lathe in my room :p

    Today has been really sunny. Now we have heavy rain. Nothing better than looking out your window and seeing people in T-shirts and shorts running and people screaming as the rain pours. Only been raining for about 2 mins now and there is already sitting water everywhere :p

    When you fall down your stairs then get shocked by a 400v filter cap in a tube amplifier not 15 minutes later... I guess that's what I get for assuming it had discharged..

    Re checking the Idle current for the output's a month after the restoration I performed on this amp, still sitting happily at 30mV on both channels. Measured the DC offset on both channels too, 2.2mV left 0.6mV right, 0mV is considered perfectly healthy, 30 is considered good and 60 is on the edge of bad, so I'm pretty happy with those numbers especially since it's a direct coupled amp, not cap coupled so no capacitors to filter out any DC voltage. The list of work done to this amp; complete strip down, all boards removed and cleaned with anti bacterial and water, recapped with Panasonic FC and Nichicon PW capacitors, noisy transistors replaced and dodgy VU meter lamp LED conversion fixed.
