I’ve been trying to clean for a week, yesterday and today I’ve spent actually making some headway. My grandma is coming to town so I’m trying to spruce up the place! Not very exciting for the fleeting weekends of the summer, so I thought I’d live vicariously through you all!
P.S. you can’t clean without music: Sorry for the YouTube link but I’ve been unable to use the alternatives recently
Nice username! Have you ever played the Star Wars Attack of the Clones game for the GBA? One of my core gaming memories there! Any games in mind? Or is your PC one you could try undervolting? I feel you on the space heater, my PC looks like a crypto mining rig because of the vent shaft I have going out an AC-space-converted window.
Sorry to hear about the smoke, we recently had a 1 day lightning storm which set some fires off just north of me, though I’m thankful that it hasn’t come down. But I can see it if I drive up just 15 or 20 minutes.
Thank you! I haven’t played the attack of the clones game on the GBA but I still have a copy of episode 3 which I remember enjoying thoroughly!
I suppose I could undervolt my pc…I’m not sure I would trust myself to do it without messing it up lol. I would probably need to jump back and forth quite frequently, so I wonder if that would be worthwhile. That gives me something to think about, though! Venting the heat out of the room is a very interesting idea. I’ve thought about so many ways of trapping the heat, cooling it down faster, magically poofing it out of the air lol.
It’s great in the winter though! It was -30 for a bit this winter, and I had to open my window for a bit to let the heat escape.
Nooo worries. I appreciate your thoughtfulness though. I’m trying to get used to it or figure out ways to adapt because I imagine it’s going to be smokey and hot like this (or worse) for the foreseeable future.
I did come up with a couple of ideas this weekend that I’ll have to try. I hooked up a big box fan with a furnace filter taped to the back, and that seems to help filter any smoke that comes in. Another idea I had was to tape the whole window with a garbage bag so that it’s completely airtight. Alternatively, I remembered that wetting a towel and waving it around a room is a great way to remove smoke particles from the air. So that’s also neat.
