that's odd......can't say i've heard of anything like that before. but i suppose this type of problem is bound to come up with them slappying HD cameras on everything these days. :\

i have a bad habit of falling asleep in front of the computer and waking up around 2-3:30 am. which is why i typically go to bed at 4. i try to avoid doing that on mondays, since SVU is on in an hour, but what's done is done....

which shirt, the red one or the silver one? cause i want the red one. and $11 is not bad, not bad at all. :\

Nice :3

So, I went up to my grandma's office today, with the intention on installing more RAM in her desktop as a surprise, only to find out I was wasting my time; she sent it off to one of the local repair places to get worked on. Everybody is telling her that she needs a new PC badly, but she refuses to listen; still believing that the root of the problem is her "slow internet connection" >_<;;

Meh, whatever. I get to borrow her connection for a while :3
Although, that damn vending machine down the street ate my change, so no Coke for me >_<;

OMFG GUYS today I saw an HP computer BSOD ... IN THE WILD.

It was just sitting in this department store display and it was BSOD'ing.

I wish I had my camera/phone on me so I could have snapped off a pic.

I once saw that happen at Wal-Mart; their looping promo of the latest VHS releases BSOD'd xD
(The fact I mention VHS should give you an indicator how long ago this was)

So, I learned the following today:
- BeOS hates me and/or 2k-tan the Deaktop. Trying to burn the CD would always lock up my BluRay drive (As far as Windows was concerned, the drive vanished entirely until I rebooted), and even then, the disc just barely worked (It'd get as far as the splash screen before giving up. This in in Virtualbox, BTW; I haven't tried on actual hardware). I might give it's spiritual successor, Haiku, a shot; hopefully it'll work better

- My grandma's desktop was plagued by a ton of viruses. It's better now; actually running semi-decently

- Chocolate cake donuts are amazing *w*

Krizonar

The hotel I am staying at has all of its operations done by a Power Mac G4 in the front lobby.

The awesomeness I just witnessed checking in here.

@kriz: glad you're having fun on your trip. make sure to get a pic of that. xD
@pent: how could you not know about the viruses....?
@bella: and i've seen a video of a mac BSOD in-store on youtube. >:[
*hugs various HP computers*
@svx: the grey shirt was based off the movie Labyrinth. the blonde guy is David Bowie's character.
the red one is Tifa, from FF7. i asked my sister and i'm gonna buy it cause it's cheeeeeap 8D

Sure beos is too old to recognize new hardware
Trying it on a virtualbox was a fgood smart move, but you must check if emulated hardware has no flaws or beos is of good taste enough to accept it

Sure Haiku is more modern to run on any current hardware configuration, except very very new graphic cards still unsupported.

If thr desktop of your grandma is full of viruses, then don't loose time by de-infecting it. Just format and reinstall.

@Kari: Well, her desktop is a shitty 10-year-old Celeron-based Compaq that brings shame upon Asagi by carrying the same brand name on the case. Also, my uncle always loads it down with pointless junk, including no-name, barely functional antivirus software, so that was the other half of the problem

@Raffaele: I'm leaning toward the ISOs I obtained of BeOS being corrupt; as it feels like every OS I've downloaded from that site, barring MS-DOS, Windows, and OS/2, have been damaged in some way (Especially their Mac section)

So, yesterday I actually tried out Windows 8; setting it up in Virtualbox, as a morbid curiosity. Let's just say, I'm not wasting my money on it when it comes out; it was agonizingly slow (Took forever for Internet Explorer to come up, and even then, it choked on Google; by the time it had realized I had typed anything, I had already booted Windows XP in a different box, brought up Firefox, and looked up "How to disable Metro"), it was a pain in the ass to access the control panel, required me to dig up the password of my antiquated Xbox Live account just to setup a user profile, and the design of the interface somehow makes Windows 3.11 look as flashy as Vista or 7. I'll try to get a comparison pic sometime soom
