Re: Musings on Random Musings

 

I've never had an OS install go as badly as the one I tried tonight.

 

I would actually feel better about the ordeal if the machine caught on fire.

 

It's either heat or memory failing.

 

This sucks. And my wife has the patience of a saint while I take her laptop to help resolve the issue.

 

Slow... spiraling... death...

Mac or Windows?

Thanks guys.

 

I've got a fever in my leg of all things.

 

So I figure tomorrow I should hotfoot it over to the VA hospital and get checked out.

I've been out for a week with one in my face, waiting fever eyed and deformed for the antibiotics to work down the infection to the point they can even look at it.

 

I'd been singing a lot of songs from Phantom and pondering making myself a mask when the pus fairy came and took away the swelling Tuesday, a full week after this started.

 

So, from the trenches I saw thee, take care o' yuirself.

*GIR voice*

I have nooooooooo idea!

 

 

Done & Done, unless it means I have to supply bylines...

 

Well, I could have let Basil mix my herd with his, but then we'd have to seperate them later....

The palindromedary wonders if I can smuggle in my laptop....

Mac.

 

Though given the issue appears to be hardware, specifically RAM, I find the question irrelevant.

 

But since I'm blaming the entire ordeal on iTunes it might be relevant.

 

iTunes ... used to be good.

 

By tonight I'll either have a computer or a paperweight.

Well, OS 10.5 is installing now. Nicely and quietly. I found out the long dumb painful way it was bad RAM.

 

Why, even after all these years, do I check the hardware last? Hmmm... probably because 9.5 times out of 10 it's the Software, but still. You would think that I would check Hardware before doing a complete wipe. I'm sure there are some important bits not backed-up.

 

And I'll lost the weekend to reinstalling all my stuff.

 

Software Will Save Us. Hardware Will Care For Us.

 

so faulty ram?

I liked 10.3 - rock solid.

 

Early versions of 10.4 were pretty kickin' as well.

 

10.5 decided I needed to see an Opening Cutscene with "Welcome" is a bunch of languages. I managed to offend me before I even started to use it.

 

I hate pretty. Just work.

So far I've spent an hour removing OS Annoyances like sounds. Certainly not unique to Apple OS so I can't actually hold that against it.

But I will.

 

 

(I bet someone it going.."If he hates pretty, why is he using Apple?" Answer: Because 99% of the time it just Works)
