  • I remember back before I got my own PC. My brother had Windows 98, installed Morpheus (similar to Kazaa).

    I looked for a game, I think it was some console game. “Wow, I didn’t even know this was on PC! Wow, it’s only 15MB, how did they get the game so small?? Computers are cool!”
    Every time I ran it, the screen would go all funky with every click and after a while return to normal.

    On a separate occasion I deleted System32 files (whichever ones it let me at the time), to free up space.

    It’s quite funny that a lot of people ask me for various advice, fixing devices, PCs, etc. just a friendly reminder to myself that everyone starts somewhere. Boy I messed up so many PCs when I was much younger.








  • Their fault. I remember a time when publishers allowed for people to run their own dedicated servers, for FPS at least. They could have modified that existing model, but instead they took that ability away from the user whilst almost simultaneously making excuses about the problem they created.

    If their servers can’t run forever, give us dedicated servers on a larger scale FFS!












  • Be sure to get things checked anyway.

    I had extreme back pains for ages, and the only thing that helped was smoking a lot of weed. Got rid of most of the pains, however many years later it was discovered that I had twisted discs in my spine, and the weed was masking the severity due to the pain relief!

    So now I have a diagnosed bad back and I smoke a lot of weed on prescription. So… Nothing has really changed but… I mean…
    I forgot where I was going with this. See a doctor! It won- I mean, it sometimes doesn’t waste time. Erm.
