re: Technology gripes 

@nautilee The refurbished one comes with a 30-day warranty with a 20% restocking fee if you return it for any reason other than that it wasn't as described in the listing--no restocking fee if that's the reason. Newegg also provides a 90-day limited warranty, but I can't find just what the limitations are.

re: Technology gripes 

@nautilee Do you want us to get the Dell for you, or would you rather hold off until you can get one that's not refurbished, or one that isn't a model you had trouble with in the past?

Come to think of it, what about a widescreen monitor with a mount that lets you pivot it sideways and use it in portrait mode?

re: Technology gripes 

@nautilee don't feel pressured to accept, though. It's an offer, and it'll stay on the table as long as you need it, but I won't be offended if you don't want to.

re: Technology gripes 

@nautilee Would you prefer the first one I linked to you, or this HP one? newegg.com/Product/Product.asp This one's VGA only, so keep that in mind.

We can spare at least $20 towards it, maybe even the full $40, if it's that frustrating.

re: Technology gripes 

@nautilee newegg.com/Product/ProductList This is the search I used to find it, by the way.

Hrm, how urgently do you need the monitor? Are you able to use your widescreen one comfortably enough, or is it significantly harder?

re: Technology gripes 

@nautilee Just a brief look on Newegg and I found this refurbished Dell monitor, 1280x1024 resolution, for $40. Considering that's half the price we paid for our monitor, and we got ours extremely cheap, that might be worth looking into. newegg.com/Product/Product.asp

re: Technology gripes 

@nautilee Do you need a 5:4 monitor for some reason? We can try to help find you a replacement.

@Caste@snouts.online If you have Mutant Standard, :blobpats: should do the trick.

Sidebar: this use of a complex compound phrase instead of a simple noun is called kenning! It's apparently a common feature of norse and old english poetry, but not common in modern english.

Well, until internet language :)

@monorail This, or something like it, has been repeatedly requested as a feature. No one has yet implemented it, though.

@Dex Could we see it? We don't have a birdsite account.

Only if you're comfortable with it though.

Good morning, everyone. I hope today finds you well.

I've been playing Sonic Adventure 2, and thus kept switching out with music from that game stuck in our head. Felthry now played a marble machine cover just before switching. I'm not sure if it was consciously to get back at me, or just because it wanted to listen to it.

Felthry got back at me for the last couple days; it's now switched out and left me with music stuck in our head.
