I used to work on Saturdays. What do you do at work and what's your occupation?

newly made SB-clone ...with 24bit and AES/EBU... join in development!

No special things related to thanksgiving here as it is not celebrated in my country.
So work and maybe some debugging on dosbox.
Water flows down the stream
How to ask questions the smart way!
Weekend plan:
Friday: nothing in particular, except for testing a few things here and there and buying a replacement motherboard
Saturday: bowling, thrifting, and replacing the gas cap on my car
Sunday: watching football and laundry day

Okay, here's my plan.
Friday: going to see Hamlet with Benedict Cumberbatch — there's a thing here in Moscow where you can see recordings of British theatre plays in cinemas;
Saturday: close my credit card, replace the couch in my living room, then go on a date, preferably to a bar of some sort;
Sunday: chill, mess around with my latest Slot 1/Voodoo 2 SLI build. The case it came with turned out to be a pain in the ass, so I might rebuild it from scratch. Also, ordered the SLI cable from eBay, because for the life of me I could not build one. Broke five floppy cables trying and finally gave up. There, I've said it 🤣
Another weekend coming up:
Friday: my brother has dance that night and planning on swapping the shorting board with a new one
Saturday: bowling, picking up someone, and patching the exhaust on my car
Sunday: laundry day

Another weekend:
Friday: swimming lessons-ish and planning on testing the firmware BIOS I made for my CR-563-B to see if it indeed works
Saturday: working on my car (exhaust needs to be patched, the clamp for the coolant hose needs to be replaced, and the fuel filter needs to be changed), and possibly going to a computer store to purchase an NVMe 500GB SSD, the PCIe to NVMe M.2/M.2 SSD card, and a heatsink.
Sunday: laundry day
Monday (Christmas Eve): spending time with the family
Tuesday (Christmas Day): spending time with the family and opening presents

I have zero plans this weekend, which is nice. Except working tonight and tomorrow night 😒
HP Z420 Workstation Intel Xeon E5-1620, 32GB, RADEON HD7850 2GB, SSD + HD, XP/7
I was going to apply Kapton tape to the outer fog lamp lenses of my friend's RX300, and replace the bulbs (he'd insisted on trying the Hella XY bulbs instead of just treating the lamp itself to make it yellow) with quality HB4 bulbs, but it's raining cats and dogs and may do so the rest of the weekend.
I might also try to go antiquing or something, too.
On a computer-related note, might play Ark: Survival Evolved. Been a while since I've played.
Tomorrow I'm getting some tyres fitted on my car. Cheapest price is booking through a generic website which gives me a morning or afternoon slot only. I get the confirmation email... 8.30am 🙁
No other plans really. Try and sort out my latest PC.
Ryzen 3700X | 16GB 3600MHz RAM | AMD 6800XT | 2Tb NVME SSD | Windows 10
AMD DX2-80 | 16MB RAM | STB LIghtspeed 128 | AWE32 CT3910
I have a vacancy for a main Windows 98 PC

I had the same issues making those cables. I ended up ordering the connectors from china, 10 pieces for 2 dollar/euro's. Made my life soooooo much easier 🤣
