What's the most nigger rigged you've ever done tech or non tech.

>dell monitor >gets so fucking hot it has literally burned me >get a basic PC fan from an old shit PC >rig it to a wall DC adapter that has 12V >works like a charm >tape it to the back of it blowing downwarm >it has cooled off at least 30% or something and my room is not an oven in the summer since I did this Why does dell things have to run so hot?
If it is, that's why. CCFL backlit IPS monitors were always ridiculously hot.

I wish I knew what that meant. Please forgive my dumbness, will you explain it to me?

we aren't going to be here much longer, maybe the end of the year at best, we've been here for about 5 years. I think we are essentially in the clear. I could be wrong tho about the slant and the trailer is badly built. I don't even get why they are called trailers.

>nig rig >trailer
c'mon south, are you even trying anymore
Benjamin Roberts
Haha, you live in a fucking trailer. Almost as bad as shedguy in those BST threads
It's not a bad thing tbqh, I mean I don't love it but I can live with it. The only real difference between a "trailer" and a house is the shape, if this were in more of a square, you wouldn't be able to notice much of a difference.
the issue is that there's no basement or attic, so when we moved in we had a lot of shit.

also that you have a convenient crawlspace for the local wild animals, there's no insulation worth the name, and you could tear the

Oh how I know this too well. The good part about is that we aren't like the other retards around here; neighboorhood essentially is nice for the most part accept this one lady next door who you'd think she goes to a garage sale weekly and buys people's crap for no reason. The crawlspace over here has never been opened accept once to do some pipe work, aside from that, it's alright. The walls are NOT fucking insulated at fucking all. I wish they were. Either really hot in the summer or really cold in the winter. Fucking retarded
OK it took me a minute after realizeing it was sideways. That's interesting. "If it works it aint stupid" - Jeff Foxworthy I believe

That's inside the trailer? Will that even fit on a single road lane?

>if it works it ain't stupid.
Truth, originally was going to use a tube tv, but it would not turn on.
I have no idea why it's called a trailer when that's all grounded and can't be moved without disconnecting it. I think it's cause it's built some place else and brought in and it's just faster.
Most trailers in my park are very nice looking, the only difference is is what it looks like compared to a house. However, the further down you go, of course you can tell they've been there a while, either gawdy old lady shit out side or outside toys everywhere and beat up cars. The kind of parents that keep having children and smoking at the same time... Raspy voice...
Does using Ice sickle xmas lights as my main light source count as a nigger rig? my cieling fan is fucked

Not really, it's just ambient lighting(really pretty indoors at night).
Only problem is that they're prone to faulty bulbs. I actually have some led stick thingys that lasted me four years and had them in my bedroom. Now I have a led strip that strobe to different colors.
What I really want to do is get one of those "vintage" bulbs for this lamp I salvaged from an old light fixture from outside and painted black. Currently in my bedroom.
Daniel Nelson
oh i see what you did there, that's pretty cool.
Oliver Thompson
Not really a niggerrig, but I built headphones when I was younger from the ground up using the inside of two old speakers, I even painted plastic bugs and glued them to the headset.
They looked metal as fuck, but eventually broke and I never bothered to fix them.
Dylan Hall
It's called a trailer because you can hook it to the back of a truck and literally drive around with it trailing behind you. They are also known as mobile homes.
Jaxon Cooper
that sounds like a neat project
oh hi again Yeah Mobile homes. I forgot that term. I am so thankful I don't live in a single wide.

the cord on the AC adapter to the thinkpad i use as a faptop got way fucked up (frayed inside i think, had some exposed wire, sometimes sparked, only worked in the right positions), but i didn't want to drop 80 bucks on a power cord for something i use an hour or two every couple days
so i used a bunch of electrical tape to secure the cord in a position where it actually worked and only plugged it in when i was right there at the computer so i could put out any fires that might start
