Earlier this year she started baking regularly. I told one of the ladies I ride with, as we were on a steep climb, that her plan of fattening me up was working. Just as suddenly, she stopped baking.

Building is easy if you're not a dunce. Decide what you're going to do. Choose your CPU and maker appropriate for your use and go from there. If you have a Microcenter near you, you can get some screaming deals. If you're willing to cannibalize your current computer, you might be able to carry over a good chunk of it and just replace the motherboard, CPU, GPU and upgrade to an SSD. What's in the current machine?
Current computer is this Gateway (RIP), but with a 500W power supply and a 2GB RX460.

Transporter malfunction throws Kirk, McCoy, Uhura, and probably some poor red-shirted phaser-fodder into an alternative universe, where the Federation is the Empire, and the way you get promoted is to kill your superior officer.
The Tantalus device, IIRC, allows you to check up on your potential assassins and victims surreptitiously so you know who's about to gork you.

My superiors are all on the East Coast, whereas I am on the West Coast. Makes it more complicated.
I know, I know - a real go-getter would find a way.

A friend lives in Nacogdoches and she rides solo and she's more worried about the wild pigs than the people.

Since we're bragging about monitor usage, I've used 4 before and at first never thought I'd manage. After a while I didn't know how I made it without 4. I'm back to 2 mostly and 3 on occasion. Different responsibilities now.
