I am rarely without headphones. I work (physical tasks) better if my mind is engaged.
Yesterday, I spent my active hours reordering the basement room where I keep my tools, parts and extra tech equipment. I've installed some LEDs around the base of the wall, where shelves block natural light, to provide a stern warning for uppity molds that might feel liberated by summer humidity. I'm also performing a general spring cleaning in there.
I went for my walk at the break of dawn, and found three computers and a Vizio flat screen TV that Chinese students set next to their dumpster in hopes that someone would rescue them.
It'll take me a couple of hours to dismantle the desktop (Lenovo, 8gb RAM, probably about five years old) clean the PSU and MOBO, and put it back together. The two laptops (Asus, four years old) will need a sticky keys bypass or reinstallation to get on their efeet. Plus some dusting. They don't have optical drives, of course, so I'll need to attach a USB optical drive. Fortunately, I have one.
