Amari Elder
@amari.archaisticlibrary.net
Custodian of The Archaistic Library.

I stream games sometime on https://twitch.tv/amari_elder but mostly I'm interested in tinkering with technology and sharing my experiences.

Here are links related to my content: https://archaisticlibrary.net
I've had solar panels up and running for over a year now and my only regret from the install has been not climbing the trees in the front yard and hacking the tops off because the shadows slay my power generation during the winter...

My day is going great, thanks for asking.

Koko Pimento is taking over my computer...

Once this is done, I need to do it 10 more times...

If you see this, post a smiling OC.
I'm pretty sure she's smiling under that makeup, probably.

Currently on my workbench, the inner workings of a statement piece. While my system has always been housed in a black box, I enjoy building visually pleasing machines for people.

It's going through a stress test so we can drop it in knowing it should last, so it's stay on my bench is almost up.

I am unreasonably excited to get this set up and running.

Alright, show me your cable management.

Don't worry, I'll go first:

Found some pictures I thought would be fun to share.

The first three are of a PS4 controller that was suffering stick drift; instead of buying a whole replacement, I had my housemate buy replacement joysticks and I performed the swap.

The last one is my PS2 I took apart to replace thermal pads.

Another work from @vtuber0ji.bsky.social , but it's a reference sheet! Now we have a visual guide to a lot of the visual details that goes into Amari's typical appearance as the Guild Leader of The Archaistic Library.

Oji did a wonderful job bringing Amari to life, so I hope you also enjoy it!

For anybody that was curious as to where I have been, I'll be having a friend move in and I've been cleaning up to prepare for that.

Part of this process involves replacing a wall that had paneling over it for some reason. I'll probably make a blog post about the process but here are some photos:

graciously brought my design into reality providing the reference Oji used to create the piece in the previous post.

If you would like to learn a little about Amari's history, I wrote up a summary that can be found here: wordpress.archaisticlibrary.net/synthesized-...

My Pokemon Sapphire battery died long ago because the cart went on a ride through the wash and the battery in my emerald cart died fairly recently, so I decided to replace both, except the replacements failed shortly after so I replaced the battery with a holder and it works so that's cool.

Alright I guess.

I'm quite honestly pleasantly surprised that Ace Attorney Investigations made it onto your list considering how late in the year it came out. Excellent tastes.

I was going to pass on filling this out, but saw Phantasy Star was on it, so I guess I get a 42. Does that mean I pass or fail?

Also, most of the entries in the series I've played on the list are hella old; I've actually played very few new games in recent years...

Time for a basically free upgrade to one of the servers, then maybe I'll consider streaming.

I took a step I've been wanting to take and removed all the SATA drives from my storage server. As a consequence, I now have a bunch of consumer SSDs without homes.

If I follow you and you need storage, talk to me; I'd be willing to part with some for the right reasons and maybe cash for shipping.

Here with another piece of #PSO2 art; this was made by the lovely @lereleica.bsky.social of one of my characters named Athena.

While she is quite durable, articles like her glasses certainly are not and she's mystified by this fact.

As always, more here: chevereto.archaisticlibrary.net/album/cnW

Booted up HoloCure after the update:

I keep forgetting to ask, did you look into that little bit of tuning I mentioned?

Somewhat related, I host a community Minecraft server and they keep chewing through the RAM I have allocated for it. I might have to download more RAM for the server if they keep this up.

In the mean time, here's a fun piece of art that I commissioned in the height of my #PSO2 days. For the uninitiated, this is from an Emergency Quest introduced alongside the Chrome Dragon.

More of my PSO2 art can be found in this album on Chevereto:
