Me in 2015: struggling to block Windows 10 update
Me in 2020: struggling to upgrade to Windows 10

@avie swoops in and hovers in front of your face, then waves :3

@shyra I may take you up on that offer if I can't resolve the issue. Would need to make sure my mother would be okay with giving our address out to someone online, though.

After five years of stubbornly holding off, I'm finally updating to Windows 10. Hopefully nothing breaks ._.

@vantablack hmm, this gives me ideas for something I was thinking about in a writing project I'm planning

wow thanks to tvtropes i just learned mr. rogers is the reason recording TV on like a DVR or VCR or whatever isn't illegal

"In a case that made it all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court in 1984, the TV and movie industries sued manufactures of VCRs on the grounds that recording their programming was copyright infringement. Enter Fred Rogers, who testified on behalf of home recording, saying he didn't mind if people recorded his shows and that it was a very good thing for families to be able to watch programs together whenever they wanted to, rather than being controlled by an arbitrary network. The court specifically cited his testimony in their decision. So in other words if you like not being tied down to Appointment Television, you can thank Mr. Rogers."

@ChlorideCull Thinking though, I wonder if it is a graphics driver issue? Because I recently updated my nVidia driver for both Linux and Windows.

@ChlorideCull Alright, I got the dump file made. How do I send it though? Its about 700 megabytes in size.

Having problems once again with my computer randomly deadlocking. I think it may be impending hardware failure though, because when it happens on windows there is no bluescreen.

I think tonight I'll run memtest86 to see if its the RAM. Don't know what I can do about it if it is the RAM though, because I can't afford any hardware replacements @.@

@PsyChuan @Drako_Fenris@yiff.life I saw one the other day. Horrible creatures...

a Danish museum lent a bunch of money to an artist working on an art installation called "Take the money and run", supposedly made to show the difference between a yearly wage in Austria compared to Denmark

when they got the frames, they were empty

the artist took the money, and ran

this, the artist has stated in interviews, is the art piece

I love it
