🤣 👍 Well, at least I'm not alone... but personally, I still double-check everything. Just to be safe. Did I turn off all the lights? Is the water shut off? Is the stove completely off? I'd rather do my routine once and be certain than go through the motions mindlessly and have to redo the whole damn thing because I can't trust my own brain.🤣

I dealt with something similar. It started with these weird spasms, then evolved into tics—or whatever you want to call it. I was performing these bizarre little "rituals" 😁 involving door handles and stuff like that. And honestly, 😁 it got weirder. Walking down the street, dodging specific objects, following these mental patterns that dictated how I moved... just strange behavior. As for the actual tics, there was a phase where I couldn't stop blinking, then it turned into head jerks, then my hands... total garbage. I think I'm over it now, though. I don't know about you, but for me, it was all fueled by frustration, stress, fear of failing, and trying too hard to stay in control. I've been through some pretty rough patches in life, so who knows? Maybe this was just some leftover baggage from all that. 👋

It's basic math, plain and simple:
Just shut up already! 👋

I have no clue what kind of components Equi uses, but let’s be real: the golden rule of successful overclocking is voltage modding. If you don't have stable voltage on all the rails—meaning constant fluctuations—you're stuck, especially if you're dealing with a cheap power supply. To be honest, I haven't used this specific unit before.
You probably need to bump up the VCORE voltage a bit more just to get a successful POST. What are you running for FSB and multiplier?
As far as overclocking goes, my track record isn't exactly stellar, but hey, I'm all for it. 👍It wasn't exactly a blast when I snapped a piece off the die of my old AMD Athlon 900 MHz (Thunderbird core). I know it's ancient, but that chip meant something to me. 🙂 😁But can you blame me? I was being cheap and trying to install a friend's high-RPM turbine cooler instead of doing it right. 🙂Now I've got an AMD Athlon 64 3500+... absolute beauty. 😛 Cheers!

And here I am, actually worrying that my internet speed is too slow. 🙏 !

As far as I can tell, you're running on standard ISDN BRI—you know, that Basic Rate Interface setup with two B channels for voice/data streams and a D channel for signaling and control info. When you bond those two B channels together, you hit a connection speed of 128 kbit/s. Since ISDN is a digital telephony system with integrated services, you don't have to deal with useless A/D or D/A conversions, which means faster data transfer and better reliability. But look, I won't ramble on. Since there are 8 bits in a byte, your absolute theoretical maximum download rate is 16 kb/s. It is physically impossible for it to be 17. Usually, once both B channels are up, you'll see actual transfer speeds around 14.5 to 15 kb/s. You might get more, but only if the server itself is actually capable of pushing those speeds to clients. Of course, it could also be slower depending on which server you're hitting. 😁
👍
Anyway, just wanted to jump in here and add my two cents to the discussion. 😁 I strongly suggest installing and using DC++. Just forget about Napster and WinMX; honestly, even Napster combined with Diet K doesn't compare. 👍 I haven't actually tested it myself, but judging by the benchmarks over at PCMag... it's easily one of the best P2P clients out there.
