Retro PC

Bild
While cleaning up my cellar I hit on an old motherboard with an old cpu. I was wondering If I can make something out of it. I decided to build a retro PC with some new parts. To be precise, I don't want to use a bulky power supply and only connect a cd drive if it is required. I had to buy some missing parts to realise my project. From AliExpress Pico PSU DC-ATX-160W 24Pin ( ~ 8 $ Free shipping to Germany) https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?SearchText=pico+psu Converter Power Kabel 20P ATX to AT 2 Port 6 Pin ( ~3 $ Free shipping to Germany) https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?SearchText=atx+to+at+converter From Ebay Graphic card VGA S3 ViRGE/DX ( ~ 5 € + 2 € delivery) https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/S3_ViRGE So I paid round about 17 € for this project. List of all components: 64 MB 72 pin Ram S3 Virge/DX with 4 MB Ram and 72 MHz Pico PSU for power supply Gigabyte P/I-P55TP4N motherboard Pentium 1 with 166 mHz (codename: P55C) released 1997

Second hackintosh ready

Bild
After a long time, I decided to build a new hackintosh. The reason for that was the poor quality of Apple's butterfly keyboards of their Macbook Pro series and the lack of upgradability. These days we are talking a lot about our environment (Fridays for future). For me, it is absurd that a company like Apple is allowed to sell its products in Europe. Items I use for my hackintosh setup: Gigabyte Z390 M Gaming Intel Z390 So.1151 32GB G.Skill Aegis DDR4-3000 DIMM CL16 Intel Core i9 9900 8x 3.10GHz be quiet! Dark Rock PRO 4 be quiet! 700W power supply Samsung 120G SSD (Will be replaced soon by a bigger one) TP-Link TL-ANT2408C WTXUP for Broadcom BCM94360CS2 Currently, I am using the built-in graphics card (Intel 630 UHD ) provided by the CPU. It is sufficient for my work as a software developer but if I feel the demand for a dedicated graphics card, then I would choose one of the following graphic cards. Radeon RX 470 Radeon RX 480 Radeon RX 570 Radeon RX 580

Java Instrumentation aka Java Agents

Today I was trying out a tool called XRebel. This is an amazing tool for every java web developer who wants to find performance issues during development. Setting up XRebel was that easy. You only need to add the XRebel jar file to your server startup parameters: -javaagent:[/path/to/]xrebel.jar. Wow that was easy and wow I don't have any idea who javaagent works. After doing some researches in the internet I found out that this service is called java instrumentation. (http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/instrument/package-summary.html)  In the next couple of days I am going to research this service.
