Title: What are you Not doing right now?
Post by: tarascon on April 07, 2013, 05:11:21 AM
there should be a thread called "what are you not doing right now?" (with the appendix:  "that you should be doing...")

OK then.  ;D

Right now I'm NOT watching the rest of the 4th season of Arrested Development. I got through the first four episodes and so far it's not as funny or clever as I remember. I'll go back I'm sure, but so far it's just *meh*. I also didn't like Bioshock Infinite or any of the new games I have, so I'm beginning to seriously wonder if I may be anhedonic.
Title: Re: What are you Not doing right now?
Post by: Autumn on May 28, 2013, 01:01:00 PM
Sacpop, I have that issue sometimes. I'm also not watching the new season of Arrested Development, however, it is because my husband wants to see the rest of them...

Right now, I'm not cleaning. I should be. Baby has to sleep in her crib tonight, Dr.'s orders. We have to really change her sleeping habits. She is apparently spoiled (duh) and eats more than she needs to. So, that's what's up. Hahah.

I liked Bioshock and Bioshock 2 better than Bioshock Infinite. I'm now playing Metro 2033, finally getting into it. I hate the whole gas mask thing. Just finished Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

I just started Metro Last Light. So far I like it, but I am just starting out. I'm having trouble with the stealth b/c I have never really played game requiring stealth except for Manhunt, and I was never much good at that. So far I have died ~8 times trying the same mission, so I took a break, but hopefully once I get the stealth figured out it will get easier.

Much of anything.  Thanks 2 the fact that I had bad insomnia and then, about 15 minutes after I did manage to get back to sleep, around 5:15 a.m., the @!####!!! traffic helicopters decided to hover about 3 feet above the roof over our bedroom.  I thought the house was going to fall down, as it was shaking so violently from the updraft I first thought it was an earthquake.  There's a public transit strike, so I guess they decided it would be a great vantage point from which to film the freeway.

Some days, I regret not having a rocket launcher stashed in the closet.

It is indoors.  It grew really well, but then it started wilting after I failed to water it during a busy weekend.  I've noticed some new leaves growing out of the top, but the big leaves don't look pretty at all :'(

I'm sure it seems dull, but there's a strange comfort in family.  I miss mine, for sure.  All of the older adults are dead and I rarely see my siblings or their families due to financial constraints and geographical distance.

Feeling bad  :-[
Work Colleague was sacked today for smoking outside of his lunch break.
He had 2 warnings already for this, his last one being a final written warning
for same subject.
He had plenty of opportunities to join Union and even lied twice about being a member.
Asked me to accompany his on his final warning and I refused, a verbal abuse was received by myself from him and referring to all other Union reps.
I calmly ( and this is rare for me) I clearly stated
" I haven't got you in this situation you have. sort yourself out"
Off I walked.
Sorry this happened at Christmas for him but 25 people were Talked to this week for same thing.
Busy time indeed.

Quote
City That Does Not Sleep
Federico García Lorca, 1898 - 1936
 
In the sky there is nobody asleep.  Nobody, nobody.
Nobody is asleep.
The creatures of the moon sniff and prowl about their cabins.
The living iguanas will come and bite the men who do not dream,
and the man who rushes out with his spirit broken will meet on the
            street corner
the unbelievable alligator quiet beneath the tender protest of the
            stars.

Nobody is asleep on earth.  Nobody, nobody.
Nobody is asleep.
In a graveyard far off there is a corpse
who has moaned for three years
because of a dry countryside on his knee;
and that boy they buried this morning cried so much
it was necessary to call out the dogs to keep him quiet.

Life is not a dream.  Careful!  Careful!  Careful!
We fall down the stairs in order to eat the moist earth
or we climb to the knife edge of the snow with the voices of the dead
            dahlias.
But forgetfulness does not exist, dreams do not exist;
flesh exists.  Kisses tie our mouths
in a thicket of new veins,
and whoever his pain pains will feel that pain forever
and whoever is afraid of death will carry it on his shoulders.

One day
the horses will live in the saloons
and the enraged ants
will throw themselves on the yellow skies that take refuge in the
            eyes of cows.

Another day
we will watch the preserved butterflies rise from the dead
and still walking through a country of gray sponges and silent boats
we will watch our ring flash and roses spring from our tongue.
Careful!  Be careful!  Be careful!
The men who still have marks of the claw and the thunderstorm,
and that boy who cries because he has never heard of the invention
            of the bridge,
or that dead man who possesses now only his head and a shoe,
we must carry them to the wall where the iguanas and the snakes
            are waiting,
where the bear’s teeth are waiting,
where the mummified hand of the boy is waiting,
and the hair of the camel stands on end with a violent blue shudder.

Nobody is sleeping in the sky.  Nobody, nobody.
Nobody is sleeping.
If someone does close his eyes,
a whip, boys, a whip!
Let there be a landscape of open eyes
and bitter wounds on fire.
No one is sleeping in this world.  No one, no one.
I have said it before.

No one is sleeping.
But if someone grows too much moss on his temples during the
            night,
open the stage trapdoors so he can see in the moonlight
the lying goblets, and the poison, and the skull of the theaters.

I have all of the parts for my new computer but I'm not building it. I have a video made by JJ from Asus called What To Do With Your PC Hardware Before You Build. He recommends updating the BIOS before you install the motherboard. I have to find the nerve to do it. :-\

Title: Re: What are you Not doing right now?

I always used to stall the build after buying all the components.  The problem with that is that if you blink for too long, all your hardware is out of date!
Title: Re: What are you Not doing right now?

I hooked it up and wouldn't you know, one of the memory modules doesn't show in the BIOS. I swapped them around the good one shows in the new slot. Called Newegg and they're going to cross-ship the 2 module kit. She said they should be here by next Tuesday. If I would have waited another day I'd be SOL. The 30 day return policy expires tomorrow.

I sympathize.  Machines are great when they work and can drive you nuts when they don't.

My scanner now has a slipping belt, so every time I turn on the printer it makes these godawful sounds and then gives me an error message.  I just loaded another inkjet cartridge into it, but I'm now shopping around for a laser printer because I'm tired of paying for the Unicorn Blood priced ink for this inkjet.  It uses color every time it prints b/w prints.  WTF.
Title: Re: What are you Not doing right now?

It usually does that when it's out of black ink.

Post by: drago6650 on April 12, 2015, 12:01:36 PM
Just put 3 new colour print cartridges, every one came up with separate messages first did I know it was not a genuine HP cartridge and was it sold as such, then the next message came up asking if I would like to proceed.
Title: Re: What are you Not doing right now?
Post by: 6pairsofshoes on April 14, 2015, 11:51:07 PM

Nope.  It's designed to use color for b/w prints because that way "it keeps the print heads clean" which is Epson's way of saying they like to bleed its customers dry for the price of ink and if they only had the black ink work when you needed it, they'd make less money.

Thanks, Chris. I actually really appreciate the suggestion as I'm now looking for a laser printer w/scan function.  I still don't have a smartphone.
Title: Re: What are you Not doing right now?
Post by: brickbatz on April 15, 2015, 10:09:24 AM
We bought the cheapest HP printer Big Lots had because the ink is cheap. Been using it for about 4 years now. I have an old Lexmark scanner/printer with no ink. I just save the scans and print them on the HP.
Title: Re: What are you Not doing right now?
Post by: 6pairsofshoes on April 27, 2015, 05:51:15 AM
No more epsons for me after the last experience.

If I had the room I'd run the printer until it died, but I really only have space for one device.  The guy my husband shares space with at work bought a nice Brother that prints color and scans.  I'm tempted to ask how much he paid, but I fear that laser printers of that level of functionality cost 2-300 bucks...

I've some alerts set for possible fanfic I might like to read, latest was an absolute poo game of thrones fixfic called wolf of the north. It''s craaaaap, but if I squint a bit it looks like worf of the north, and I'd both read and watch the poo out of that.

Pretty easy setup, anomaly of the week hits worf in his shuttle home from batleth tournament, he crashes into that 700 foot ice wall. Night's watch has it's own problems, and the prime directive has been blown to poo with the shuttle.

Nobody does anymore. Where the hell is everyone? WTF! Well, I guess I have no place to madam, I was on hiatus myself for several years. I only get 1 day off and with my job, you BETTER get your rest. When you haul 70,000 lbs., you are not only responsible for yourself, you are responsible for everyone else on the road. People expect you to be responsible, and I am. Very! I'm always reminding the younger drivers, "If you have to take a nap, pull over and take a Goddamned nap!".
Anyway, thank you Six & 8ully for keeping me company in my hour of need (even with the inevitable rejoinders, lol). 1 more month, UGH! I know some guys at work are going to rip on me for not milking it longer. Which I know I could. A lot longer. No thanks. That's just me. Besides, our new contract just got passed last week (thank God). We got a decent raise and I want to hop back in the saddle.

Right now? I am enjoying some pistachios and a cup of joe. Watching....what the hell am I watching? (I left the remote in the dining room, ugh!). National Geographic; 'Life & Death Row'. Holy poo, 'Parks & Recreation' is on. *click*

Oh yeah, that's it on GOT. Are they going to continue with another season next year? poo, you know what? I forgot to watch Kill Bill Vol. 2. lol  Have to watch it tomorrow, I mean today (it's 1:30 here). I have Roku on now. Haven't used it in over 2 years since I bought nVidia SHIELD. Checking out stuff on Tubi. Looks like if you're really into boobs, Tubi is where it's at. lol I would probably spend hours on this channel when I was your age. lol Anyway, I've always been a leg man. WTH am I going on about? I need to go to bed.

er, I'm 34.  I'd say get a good rest in for KB2, it's quite the ride. As to GOT, they made Dany Hitler. Gave her a big red flag backdrop.

christ called the overly Nazi baddie in The Force Awakens Adolph Weasley, and this wasn't much better.

Seriously, WHY was Jon Snow resurrected? Like, you could say it was to rally the North, but they didn't much care for him past "Da King In Da Norf".

I really am sad. Like, a lot of the time, I don't like or agree with what a show does, or the direction it goes down, but this was just DUMB.

Rejoicing in the fact that I spent the last hour and a half watching GoT.

Believe me, the ending to Diablo Guardían was so much better. 

and one final thing:  Arya Starck, soon to appear on the next season of The Expanse, because, who can say exactly what's west of Westeros?
Title: Re: What are you Not doing right now?
Post by: 8ullfrog on May 20, 2019, 01:49:39 AM
God damn did they golly that up.

I mean back when GOT had decent writers, Arya saw the sheer desperation that Gendry was, while still trying to help her and put on a brave front, and offered to be his family.

Post Murder Academy Arya? NOPE, golly THAT, I'M OFF TO DIE ON A RANGING LIKE UNCLE BENJEN!

I got into demonoid for HL2 beta content around 2003. So, Senior year of high school? I remember the official game unlocking, I got to the bit with the vortigaunt, and then I had to GO TO SCHOOL.

I had a hangover before I ever had a single alcoholic drink.

Title: Re: What are you Not doing right now?
Post by: 8ullfrog on May 20, 2019, 02:28:42 AM
Now I'm mad.

Like, how I would have done it, if S8 is just, how things have to be.

Have Jon succumb. HOLY golly THAT WOULD BE GLORIOUS. We've been told for how long "If you think this has a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention"

So Give Jon the Happy ending. Yeah, Sansa and bran would be bent, but at this point, who CARES?

Give Dany and Jon their stupid little love affair. Everyone else dies. Would have actually been a badass ending. Fire and blood, song of ice and fire, whatever the golly you want to call it. Targaryens are monsters, NO poo.

A narcissistic love affair under dragon fire.

Tyrion would be totes bent though. No way does he survive if Aegon bows to Dany.

Like, Westeros SUCKS. It's not even debatable, the rest of the world just looks at them and says "yuck".

Gah, bless'ed Sam still gets to write his stupid book then. Just deny him his house and send him to the citadel. With the unsullied, because the maesters totally killed the dragons in the first place, and need to die.

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH. Like I can't write for poo, but I could have written myself out of the corner D&D bent themselves into.


I don't know, are unhappy endings just what we get now? Or sequel hooks?


golly, even Halo 3 did it better. You got put into stasis, with an unholy nightmare possible on the other side.

Just know that no matter how nice the Trader Joe's, their parking lot is contractually required to be poo, and the customers have a shockingly high bottom quotient. I hear it pays well, but holy crap whenever I went in the one by my old house, people were such picky naffs yelling at the employees. Like, we got the obese yelling people at Ralph's, and the skinny twig shriekers went to TJ's.

They do have shockingly well priced single malt scotch. I couldn't stand the stuff, but it was a popular Christmas gift for male relatives.

Prices are all over the place though. Some stuff is reasonable, other things I just pointed at the tags and laughed.
Title: Re: What are you Not doing right now?
Post by: Schmoogsley on May 23, 2019, 12:25:00 PM
Well, figured they would be pricey. But, I'd rather pay high prices for good cheese rather than high prices for very average cheese. That Tillamook stuff was decent, but, 7 bucks for 7 ozs. ? Kinda steep.

Worst case scenario, Goodwill are full of them. Just make sure the Teflon coating isn't damaged. Why people use metal instruments on Teflon cookware is beyond me.

Speaking of not using metal instruments on cookware, I need to buy more plastic spatulas, my roommate broke my last one, and mom melts them. I've been using a big plastic spoon.
