Just did another pretest for A+ certification and got a 75%! But I'm not satisfied until I can do it and get 80% or above!

i did something like that in computer class years ago....got the highest grade initially and ended up getting a 95 when i took it again for the final. still failed the class though, even though i knew exactly what i was doing. :3

Same thing happened to me last year in my Cisco class, I knew everything I was doing and still didn't pass the class until I did the final. I then went into servar mode and learned alot about Win2kServer and all that. My dad just needs me to get my A+ for the family business and then make $20/h yatta yatta yatta, then I'll be off to get my IBM Certification and Microsoft Certification. Long road ahead of me, I'm going to end up like my dad when he was studying for the Certifications, locked in my basement/office/bedroom doing nothing but reading books and going to work (remotely, which wasn't around for my dad so he was stuck leaving the house and all that.).

That really sucks, I remember when my old 750GB drive died on me and that really sucked due to having collected 60-80GB of touhou music and losing it all

Good lord, everyone's having terrible computer luck. Best of luck on those certifications Doc, you got this.

In other news: THE SUN, IT BURNS D:

I kid, it was out on Saturday too. Weather's supposed to return to the usual doom and gloom tonight though, just in time to prevent the family from visiting me. Maybe. Probably.

Sorry about the router issue Red, that sucks.

I couldn't get a connection to the Internets (or is that World Wide Web, because I still had P2P capabilities? I use the two terms so interchangeably I've sort of lost track of their real meanings) yesterday, until I threw an old router I had lying around into the fray... that fixed things...

In other news, I'm now obsessed with trying out Linux Mint on my iMac. It wouldn't run the 32 bit version (which supposedly works with 64 bit processors too ><) so I DL'd the 64 bit one... now if I can figure out WHY I want to run it....

he doesn't want you to install Linux, its all Unix Unix Unix!

Bella · January 17, 2011, 02:02:22 PM

I think you're right.... the immune system of the Mac fights off the Linux invader with amazing ferocity (in other words: the 64 bit liveCD won't boot either).

Of course the BSD and the Linux are two of nature's greatest enemies, so this doesn't quite surprise me.

Pitkin · January 17, 2011, 02:20:11 PM

Linux Mint is very nice towards me. ._. The best OS experience I've had since Fedora 8, I think... >.> Not too hard, though, since between F8 and Mint I had Windows Vista, xubuntu (failed with mobile internet) and Fedora 13 and 14, which seemed to hate everything that I had for hardware.

NejinOniwa · January 17, 2011, 02:44:22 PM

I've installed mint on pretty much every piece of fail I've encountered and turned into usables.

Bella · January 17, 2011, 03:02:38 PM

Really like(d?) it on K8... I've been tempted to install it on Dy (my 256mb RAM-having, 80gb HDD-using bitty box) but I'm afraid that it'll be too heavy for it to support. Then again, it IS running Windows XP at the moment. =w=

Do the impossible, see the invisible, Borya!
