So, I've been having a lot of fun with my computer over the last week or so. My computer likes to crash...alot. Both in Linux and in Windows. I was kind of blaming it on the whole moving things around thanks to my room being redecorated because I had really been struggling to work out what was going wrong. I've already reinstalled Linux about 5 times now. Anyway, my latest attempt to solve the problem is taking one of the two video cards out of the computer. I've notice immediately that the computer is now a lot cooler. The whole time I thought it was a graphics card problem as I noticed the crashes occured when using more graphically intensive programs. However according to the thermal monitor I was using, the hottest it was getting was about 75 degrees C and according to the monitor it's only supposed to start slowing the GPU down at 110.

Well at least my computer is clean of dust now. That was fun getting all the dust out. I just hope I solved the problem, but I've been lured into a false sense of security several times now, I'm not holding my breath this time. We'll see.

Anyway, on other topics, I'm listening to LOTS of Frank Turner. I enjoyed his work before when he was the singer of Million Dead, but he's really blossomed into an excellent singer/songwriter in his own right. Here's a few I've been listening to and the last video I'm posting is a great little video diary of his American tour.















And one from the Million Dead days
