Done This Week

[scrubjayspeaks]

Okay, so it’s probably not the sound card. It really is the speakers, and Windows just likes to be a pain in the ass about recognizing hardware when I plug it in, thereby undermining my troubleshooting efforts. I haven’t gone through to test if any of the individual speakers work when plugged in directly, rather than through the subwoofer hub. I could use headphones, except the jack is positioned such that the cord won’t reach comfortably.

*sigh*

We’re routinely at or over 100 degrees. All outdoor work needs to be done by 9 AM to avoid The Suffering. I’ve been seeing some mockingbirds around home, which is unusual. Someday, maybe I’ll have blue jays. I would like that.
