!calgarybronies I just had one of those stereotypical worst student moments. Computer crashes with all my assignments on it the day they are all due? Hell yeah! :S

@vanillabelle How bad? R-studio might be able to recover whatever you needed off it.

@greatandpowerfuleaglehooves Oh thank you for the offer! I was fortunate enough in the end to get my computer to a friend who is working on it right now. It was a rough morning though, I at first tried going to MemoryExpress and they were telling me it would cost like 400$
-
@vanillabelle No problem. What exactly does $400 get you? I might be grossly underpaid..
-
@greatandpowerfuleaglehooves According to them the price includes a four hour diagnoses program and then they can start working on it, no guarantees though. The guy who was working there told me that 100$'s of that price would be spent to get it "on the bench", meaning he would work on it immediately, or I would have to wait several days. I felt it was a sketchy operation, so I just waited for my friend to get off work. Do you work as a computer technician? I wish I was more savvy with computers myself...
-
@vanillabelle I'm a student technician at my university. I get $10/hr to diagnose laptops and install Windows images.
-
@greatandpowerfuleaglehooves They should pay you more!
-
@vanillabelle They make up for it in fringe benefits. Sorta.
-
@vanillabelle cant say ive had that happen to me but i sure know people who have had it happen to them. never a good thing.
-
@vanillabelle *is flinging you love* I know how that goes, you poor dear. *hugs*
-
@vanillabelle I feel for you. I think nowadays I backup alot of important things on my dash drive. maybe you should invest In one. just in case.
-
@pseudoartiste Thank you for the support, this cheered me up *hugs*
-
