I hack with the battery in...

I am not a coder I am a hack, I am more into the hardware side of things and see software and coding as a necessary evil.

Just got back from the audiologist, I have a loan hearing aid while mine is off for repair. I had my right one fixed a couple of weeks ago and now my left is off. I pay AUD35 a year for batteries and insurance for maintenance so that's not to bad #Deaf #HearingLoss

I have seen far too many artists gone on hold for unknown periods of time because their sole computer is a laptop.

Seriously, people, most laptops are not made to last, unfortunately. If you need reliable access to computing power, you really need a desktop. Modular, upgradeable, easy to repair by yourself, or the local techie.

@phobos_dthorga putting a small fan and heat sinks that you stick to the IC's with thermal double sided tape and see what happens, we can try the heatsinks first thats easy
@phobos_dthorga Yeah I did some reading on people putting fans in and adding small thermal pads with heatsinks to all the IC's in the unit. A company that sells and services them was like of you shouldnt do that but it was working for some people
@phobos_dthorga Maybe try hitting it with air duster can upside down to freeze it

Spent the afternoon setting up my first VPS running Ubuntu 18,04 LTS set up SSH disabled root login enabled public/private key login with a really long password to escalate the login account to su. This is a bit of a playground for me, I have been using linux on the desktop and on my servers for the last 10 years or more so it is not new ground on the OS front just need to work out what to do with it...
