Still have to do labs, they had too many people yesterday.


Walked 1.19 miles, did not find enlightenment. Want beer and carne asada.
I walk 4 miles a day.  I have not found enlightenment, but it helps keep the weight down.

There is a difference between "unelectable" and "Liberal".

Yet somehow the two words together seem a perfect fit.
Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

There is an exception to every rule, apart from this one.

Fuckdows update took control of my pc. Now the wireless adapter doesn't have a "compatable" driver, the lock screen I had hacked off is back, and the computer won't recognize my tablet either, so I can't get an updated driver.

Microsoft says use another computer and a flash drive, as if I have another computer. What the golly is wrong with those assholes?


And then my tablet got stuck in camera mode. If I had a local microsoft store, it would be molotov time.

WOOHOO! I told my tablet to ignore that it can't run exe files, then went into some mtp cowpoo and turned it into a storage device instead of a camera, then loaded the wireless driver that way.

It's the same driver as before. I don't bless'ed understand how windows update did this.

Oh, and this whole nightmare is because my S5 doesn't like unencrypted sd cards. I just wanted to load some tunes up to walk the dog!

Ok, now I'm pretty sure it doesn't like any sd card, and can't format them.


Wow today hates me.

Windows Update locked me out of my PC. I didn't have a password when I set it up. Used netplwiz.exe to bypass entering a password every time I loaded Windows. After the update I had to enter a password that didn't exist. Reset my Microsoft password but it wasn't recognized by Windows. A clean install is nice but a PITA to set up the browser and passwords for sites, install programs like Outlook for email... The one thing Microsoft did right was the implementation of Windows.old. I have everything backed up on other hard drives but copy/paste from Windows.old to the new install made it just a little less painful. It took a few days to copy it all over and delete it from Windows.old so there's more room on the 250GB SSD my OS is on.

Mine started rejecfing the password, so I set a pin. Made for ultra fast startups until windows update reinstalled the lock screen. I had used group edit to lock down the lock screen, but I hear the "anniversary" update undoes that.

Mom spilled coffee on her earbuds, and I don't know how to get the sticky off. It's on he cord and not the earpieces, thank god.

And my phone continues to reject micro sd cards.

1.Why You Using By Passing Software?
2.Why Reset Your Microsoft Password?

I Have Now On A Dual Boot System :)
Win 98 And Win XP, Just Kidding Sev7n And Ten.
Also Created System Image Using Acronis True Image 2017.

By Way Which Worked, Kind Of lol
Cause When I Tried It Out, It Didn't Create The Boot Files.

So I Used CMD To Repair The Boot.
Using The bootrec Commands :D

Catching up on paperwork.

Should have done it earlier but it was mothers day and the missus took precedence.

backing up all of my wife's apple devices  >:( >:(
She didn't warn me about all the updates she'd ignored as well  >:( >:(
And please transfer all of my ipad apps / movies / etc etc to my new ipad  :o :o :o :o
As you all know here I am not a fan of Apple products (except the ipads as they are the bees knees) because as I dont use them a lot I dont know what i'm doing with them.
The time is coming where I am going to have to go over to the dark side and buy a phone, so I do know what i'm doing with them :'(

I didn't know that I had to "activate" voicemail on my replacement phone, so I haven't been getting any voicemails. Good thing my doctors office uses text reminders, or I'd be screwed.

They have them on amazon from 120 to 870.

The last time I dealt with ebay customer support, they said that the problem would be resolved in my favor, but that my account would probably be closed over the issue [they took the maximum 30 days to issue my refund]

I flustered the support agent by saying "go ahead." I don't think that was the expected response.
