                1. @nerthos That. . . makes so much sense... If only I weren't too drunk to have seen it earlier! D:

                  1. @scribuscampbell You can't be too drunk, it's just a trick your mind is playing on you so it can take all your alcohol to itself.

                    Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:11:13 UTC from web
                    1. @nerthos Oh, man, kiwi my mind, I will *SO* outdrink it!!

                        1. @nerthos No webcam; my laptop died, I'm on my netbook. :( #

                          1. @scribuscampbell It happens too here in the third world. Today i cut a piece from my cpu cooler to be able to force it to life again.

                            Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:17:26 UTC from web
                            1. @nerthos Brutal. I've yet to have to get quite that creative with my hardware.

                              Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:19:47 UTC from web
                              1. @scribuscampbell I will post a photo as soon as i'm forced to repair that almost dead thing again.

                                Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:22:24 UTC from web
                                1. @nerthos I think worst I had to do was a new power supply. Sadly, about two weeks later, something else crapped out, and I couldn't figure out what, so I got rid of my very first desktop. Felt bad, man.

                                  Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:26:34 UTC from web
                                  1. @scribuscampbell Every three days i'm fixing some piece of my (or someone else's) computer. You should ask me if anything happens to your's.

                                    Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:30:00 UTC from web
                                    1. @nerthos Well, it looks like the video card crapped out on my lappy.

                                      Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:30:34 UTC from web
                                      1. @scribuscampbell Oh. I hate laptops because of that. As they have everything integrated to the motherboard, they're hard and sometimes impossible to fix without spending at least half the price of the actual thing.

                                        Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:32:26 UTC from web
                                        1. @nerthos Yeah, that's what worries me. I know there are some where you can replace the video &/or sound components, but mine is totally onboard, so unless it's something else killing my ability to see anything, I'm boned.

                                          Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:34:08 UTC from web
                                          1. @scribuscampbell Sadly i can't open it and find what is wrong in there from here xD if it's just a cut wire or a component damaged, it can be repaired easily. If the monitor just don't starts, then it is probably a wire. If it don't gets video signal, then it can be bad.

                                            Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:37:34 UTC from web
                                            1. @nerthos I tried an external monitor and that didn't show anything, either. But, the dole is, it started after I opened it up to re-insert a loose stick of RAM. Totally shouldn't have caused any issues, IMO.

                                              Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:38:51 UTC from web
                                              1. @scribuscampbell Then it's probably a loose component, wrongly welded. It happens sometimes.

                                                Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:40:27 UTC from web
                                                1. @nerthos I dunno. I'm not familiar enough with laptop hardware to do too much poking about... One day, I'll get it going, though. But in the meantime, here I am on my netbook! :)

                                                  Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:41:55 UTC from web
                                                  1. @scribuscampbell I'm not used to them either. Only worked with two, my mom's laptop and my netbook.

                                                    Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:44:33 UTC from web
                                                    1. @nerthos Yeah, I've worked on about five, but the most I've done is removed the one easily removable panel which usually covers just the RAM and the HDD, so that's about all I'm able to troubleshoot. And I already ruled those out, so . . . yeah.

                                                      Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:46:04 UTC from web
                                                      1. @scribuscampbell I don't know why people buys laptops, and uses them mostly at home. They should have a desktop one at home, and a laptop or netbook to carry when they travel.

                                                        Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:48:59 UTC from web
                                                        1. @nerthos I use a laptop mostly at home, but I don't only use it at one place within my home.

                                                          Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:51:08 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
                                                          1. @ceruleanspark I think it's better to have a desktop one, for the same price you can have more performance. @scribuscampbell yeah, that is a good reason.

                                                            Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:53:15 UTC from web
                                                            1. @nerthos I would prefer a desktop, if I had my way all the way, but necessity intervened. At any rate, at least I have computation. Hell, my phone's stronger than my first computer was. XD

                                                              Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:54:55 UTC from web
                                                              1. @scribuscampbell My first computer had a 166mhz cpu i think. My cellphone's running at like 300mhz, but can run at 600+mhz. Battery things.

                                                                Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:56:47 UTC from web
                                                                1. @nerthos Oh, batteries... What a scourge. I hear batteries are the only thing keeping us from having honest-to-Luke lightsabers.

                                                                  Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:58:11 UTC from web
                                                                  1. @scribuscampbell For what it does, 300mhz is enough. So they just limited it so it could run four days straight.

                                                                    Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 09:01:16 UTC from web
                                                                    1. @nerthos Wow, that isn't bad. Mine lasts me about a day, but it's 600 MhZ base, IIRC...

                                                                      Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 09:02:39 UTC from web
                                                                      1. @scribuscampbell Mine is like this one http://www.cameraphonesplaza.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/motorola-a1200-cell-phone-2.jpg but clack and more battered. I'm not inclined to buy a newer one, because this one is enough for the use i give to phones, and it has that acrylic thing that covers the screen while closed, so it is very hard to break.

                                                                        Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 09:07:16 UTC from web
                                                        2. @nerthos Space issues, maybe. For me, I do take my main-computer-which-is-also-my-laptop with me when I go anywhere I may need it. But, yeah. Some people have no use for a laptop but they get one anyway.

                                                          Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:51:10 UTC from web

      1. @pinhooves I am the tiredest, and you only have the pleasure of my company for seven minutes. Yourself?

        Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:06:55 UTC from web
        1. @thelastgherkin Troll problems on here not long ago. It was pretty bad. Other than that, I'm doing just fine.

          1. @pinhooves Oh man, ouch.

        2. @thelastgherkin SEVEN MINUTES? You might be surprised what I can accomplish in that time.

          1. @ceruleanspark I'd like to see this. :o

          2. @ceruleanspark That's what she said, and also it's only three minutes now.

          3. @ceruleanspark And by three I mean two.

            1. @thelastgherkin Nooooo, I won't get to see you for much longer. :c

                  1. @ceruleanspark Why does it scare me that I think that may be true?

                    Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:16:54 UTC from web
                    1. @pinhooves It shoud scare him. I've got his cellphone number, and my smartphone has copy and paste and an unlimited messaging plan.

    6. @theonepony Hey, I may be drunk enough to misread that as "Drink that bleach," but I am NOT drunk enough to drink that bleach!

      Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:20:33 UTC from web
      1. @scribuscampbell You'll soon be, you'll soon be.

        Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:21:43 UTC from web
        1. @nerthos Nah, the bleach is out in my van, and I'm already too drunk to leave the house, even to cross the street.

          Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:25:26 UTC from web
          1. @scribuscampbell You should always keep your bleach next to you, you can't predict when a baby could enter your house to steal everything! A good bottle of tempting bleach can do ze magicks with them.

            Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:27:03 UTC from web
            1. @nerthos I figure if anybaby wants to steal my stuff, that's fine, I'm insured.

              Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:27:50 UTC from web
              1. @scribuscampbell But where's the fun in that?

                Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 08:28:38 UTC from web
                1. @nerthos I dunno. Where did I leave the scotch again;?
