 Uploading Game Posters I made at full resolution here because SteamgridDB doesn't allow more than 600x900.

  Basically all the lines leading to buttons on the faceplate are getting relays and such.

Plex Server Progress?

Image
Plex Server is having a bit of a hiccup, mostly due to the drives failing.  I'm afraid the Drives have reached their lifeline, and being that they're not Toshiba, failing miserably. I got a new drive a Toshiba 4TB 128MB, probably gonna get another one later on. The server is a bit of a standstill at the moment because of the missing files, brought on by the failing hard drives. But other than that, I've built the server. Gigabyte Z68XP-UD3P 4x4GB/16GB DDR3 1600mhz i3-2120 (getting it upgraded to a Xeon) Toshiba 4TB 128MB 5400rpm Western Digital Green 2TB 64MB 7200rpm x2 Western Digital Blue 500GB 32MB 7200rpm x3 Samsung 870 EVO 256GB Cooler Master G750M

The weird color coding of Yugoslavia

Upon actually doing anything in this apartment I have to fix most of the electricals. But this apartment was designed by Japanese Architects, overseen and built by Russians, alongside Macedonian builders back in the 70s. Which means it's 50 years old when nothing was standardized so god knows to which standard this was wired. Many swapped electrical outlets and circuit breakers later I've come to the conclusion that instead of making it like the rest of the world ol Socialist Yugoslavia had to make it weird. So here goes Three Phase Power  Yellow - Phase Blue - Phase Mono Phase Power Black - Phase Gray - Neutral Red - Ground I hope this helps anyone in the region of Balkans that has no idea what's goin on with their electrical install.
