Other then that this has been the most irrelevant Mythology class ever since we discussed Harry Potter and my professor's desire to write fan fiction.

Somewhere, Thor is crying right now. ;_;

To be fair she's about to go on sabbatical to write a book about Artemis, so there's about two weeks more of teaching *cough* before a year long break.  Can't say I blame her.

My intense desire to comment on international affairs has no outlet; that's what I regret about college so far :/

[Chocofreak13]

what i regret about college is that everyone's an idiot.

well, ALMOST everyone.

it's basically a repeat of high school, only x5 art classes.

I don't particularly care what my fellow students do or don't do so long as it doesn't interfere with me or cost me money.

On the aged computer front: I GOT A $9 POWERBOOK 165!  I HAVE SEVEN DAYS TO MAKE IT WORK AGAIN.  According to my research, it appears that the system files on the hard drive are corrupted so it can't start the OS.  Attempt one is going to be using the only System 7 Disk Tools image I could find, which probably won't work since it's for a different processor.  Next, I've got Disk First Aide also for a different type of Mac which probably won't work.  

There really isn't any pressing need to save the HD data but I'd like to reserve the 'nuclear option' of trying to re-install System 7.0.1 for last.  If none of that works it means either 1) I'm hopelessly inept (which I already know) or following certain indicators it means the HD's a total loss.  That's my sinking suspicion at the moment, that battery damage may have killed it.

Okay everybody, on the count of three... STEW YOU LUCKY BASTARD. :V

What happens when the seven days run out? @@;;;

Gonna make a Polish dinner tonight, then make some cookies. Yes, I've become fond of baking. -v-

[NejinOniwa]

Indeed, why the seven days? -w-

In other news, the temps are closing down on 0F here, and we're deep within a well-snowed fimbulwinter - conditions couldn't be better for SAUNA AND RUN OUT AND ROLL YOURSELF NAKED IN THE SNOW tiem.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH

[stewartsage]

Because that's the deadline to return it to the Goodwill -_-

[Bella]

B-bu-but why's it have to be returned?! :V

[Chocofreak13]

yeah, if it can't be saved, keep it. FOR PARTS. >:}

@nej: LUCKY BASTARD. >__< it's been super cold here recently, and tonight we FINALLY get precipitation, and it's pouring rain. >__<;

my nose is cold :[

[Dr. Kraus]

because the man is harsh, I doesn't like giving away old laptops no one can really use for $7

[Bella]

IF IT CANT BE SAVED SAVE IT FOR THE SAKE OF SAVING IT. I MEAN, DUDE. 1992 APPLE LAPTOP.

OMG LOL ITS RAINING HERE TOO.

[Chocofreak13]

well, we DO live in the same state.....

and i agree, i'd be sad to see a laptop end up there, poor thing. ;___; it's like how i saved that hello kitty plushie i saw in a ditch as the car was driving by it.

[Krizonar]

1992 APPLE LAPTOP.

ditch

[stewartsage]

1993 laptop.  Unlike some people, I lack the space for a large collection of computers and they are beginning to stack up.  I may end up turning her over to the magic tech guy if we can't fix her.

[Bella]

MAKE SPACE. FOR GODDDDDDDSAKE MAN, MAKE THE SPACE!!!

You could always put her on loan to the New Hampshire Museum of Computing History; she'd get to stay with lots of other friendly computers, and when you finally did have the space to keep her you could get 'er back for the cost of a UPS shipment. :3
