Trying to dual-boot windows 10 and Elementary OS. I installed Elementary, but the computer won’t let me select which OS to load when I turn the power on. Will be making a thread in the advice subforum.
Went to wipe a hard drive on a computer so I could give it to a friend. Realized said hard drive might be dying (hadn’t booted the computer for over a year). Went to take it out to wipe it from my laptop. Spent over an hour trying to get it out because I had to basically remove every part to get to it and the graphics card got stuck to the case bc the ventilation internally is terrible. Went to plug the hard drive into my laptop. The hard drive died. Had to spend $50 on a new one.
tried to do something nice for my body by eating a salad and the salad Betrayed Me Horribly with instant food poisoning on the plus side that moment when you realize you’re done throwing up is one of the most beautiful feelings known to mankind
lost my favorite ring at some point last night :T I know I had it in the car so it can't have gone far but Where Is It
My parents not having cell phones keeps on becoming more and more of an issue and yet they will not get one
Not a big issue but Rivers Cuomo from Weezer sounds suspiciously like Kurt Cobain from Nirvana in Pinkerton and that’s annoying me for some reason
Spoiler: hunting/animal death friend took me and 2 friends to see some deer skeletons/mostly-skeletal carcasses which was neat, the annoying part is that they were very probably left there by hunters who didnt give enough of a shit to......not dump most or part of a deer on an unmarked road. A few hundred meters later was an area where people had dumped multiple couches and mattresses and just general garbage Also further in along the road there was an area that was cleaely popular for shooting clay pigeons, bc you could see a zillion plastic orange shell casings left behind >:T
It's looking more and more like management's plan is to shut down the Minnesota branch of the company. They keep hiring managers on the East Coast, even though there's no production there, there's a strong resistance to acquiring equipment, and there's effort being made to job out all of our production and other core functions. Looks like the plan is to have a company that consists solely of managers, and to job out the engineering and production.
Weight hasn't changed in two months so I need to make bigger diet changes to hit my goal. I tend to eat to cope, so, ouch.
ughhhh... ordered an enamel pin off etsy about three months after I bookmarked it. and now it's listed as "b-grade", with possible defects. I should've ordered it earlier, I really hope it's good quality or I'm gonna be kicking myself later.
If it helps, I've ordered many seconds pins from Etsy and never had an issue with wearability. You have to be real close up to see the defects, and they're usually very minor.
