Alright, now we're talking! The Slipknot song took me a couple tries to finally beat, and now the Cult of Personality song is kicking my butt about 77% into it, so I have to do some practicing and hopefully beat it tomorrow.

Why am I not in bed....
 
Well, everyone here can make fun of me all they want for this, but if one of my worst fears becomes a reality, I'm seriously going to cry really badly. What held me off from the forum was computer trouble.

Well, I brought my PC home over the break because I fucking hate using my very old PC (which I got back in 2000) to do my internet browsing and hopefully do some project stuff. I'll admit I had some weird problems early in the morning, but after I restarted I had no issues (this was at my apartment). All right, as soon as I had my PC up for a bit, I got attacked by some trojans and other crap (usually my PC has been clean from them) which I'm thinking might have come from another PC on my network. So I tried to remove them and do various scans (offline), but now my PC seems to officially be fucked up (even offline) and can't do a fucking thing barely. Stuff keeps coming back and there are programs installing on my PC messing it up more. I tried very hard to back-up my recent C Programs (for my project), electronic circuit designs, PS1/PS2 game saves, etc., and thankfully I did. But what kills me is that far from all my photos are backed up (last time I backed up was over the summer). I have 300+ bookmarks on my Firefox and a decent percentage of them are important (many of them I need to url when putting together my final report next semester) and so on. And if I fucking lose all those bookmarks and other stuff, I'm really fucked. So now I'm trying to find out what to do, to avoid losing crap.

This is the fucking worse time for this to happen because I'm fucking broke, I fucking need my stuff for at least another 6 months so I can finish college, and so on. I could have cared less if anything happened in mid May 2008. I have the fucking worst luck in the world. Right now, I don't feel like arguing with anyone at the moment, because this is possibly the worst thing to happen to me in quite a while. I'll admit I have computer trouble in the past, but I didn't have all that many important stuff on my PC.

Btw, using my very, very old computer now.

I'm probably going to go to bed soon, then I'm going to try to figure out a way to save most of my stuff. Re-installing everything might be a fucking pain.

Boot into safe mode, save what you can, do a clean install.


Best way of going about it.

Computer problems can really be a drain on your system. In learning how to overclock, i've busted many a' system, and it always pissed me off as well. Hope you can figure it out, if not:

Hey UT Dallas has an excellent science and engineering dept, and the best chess team in the world.
Growing every year too, it's completely different to what it was 4 years ago, and will be completely different in 4 more.
 
Dallow I went and searched out whether or not the cable got to you, but I'm glad I did.

For the record, you can get cable ties here. Pretty cheap, and they work very well and look really nice. There's a bigger spool that is a better value, but unless you can front the cash to begin with, the 75 foot roll is sufficient.

Now, I'm something of a cable tie connoiseur, and have gotten some from various places, and these are the nicest.

The ones I sent you - they didn't have white fluffy backing, right? Are they all black? I can't remember. I want to say they were all black. And if so, then those are the best you can get, and the above is the best place I've found to get them.

Only other thing I'll mention is that I've also found some (from Target, got them when they were clearanced out after beginning of school) that can be permanently tied onto a cord. I use them on controllers, mostly. Really helps with travel, and if I ever go to a friend's house, there's never a chance I'll lose the cable that way.

Just something to mention.
 
Yeah, all black.

Funny thing, I thought about your cable ties all day.
On the way home I stopped at Frys for something else and decided to look at what kind of cable ties they had.

I picked the exact brand you linked to.
They're really neat!

When I first started to buy cable ties, I had originally bought those. Then one day I was looking around and found a spool that was a little cheaper. I bought them, and it turns out the cable is thinner (not length wise, but actual width wise) and it has this fluffy white backing, which makes it look...dirty and dusty. They still work beautifully, and honestly, when you tie something up, you won't notice, but my OCD compels me to be bothered by them.

So I'd suggest just going with the link up there. Really helpful stuff. I keep all mah ish on lockdown.
 
Thanks again.

I was using twist ties like a sucker over here.
Didn't know there could be cable ties as nice and subtle as these.
 
Why are haircuts so fucking expensive?

I think I'm just gonna get it buzzed clean off, and leave, like, a centimeter of hurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

My facial hair already looks like I fight for the UFC, anyway.

I did that for awhile. Buzzed head with a chinstrap sideburns/beard.

I finally let it grow out a bit, now I'm able to cut my own hair and keep it gully.

Saves me like $40 a month.

Shit, when I was shaving my head didn't have to worry about gel, hairspray or combing my hair.

It was pretty nice.

$40 a month!? Did you get your haircut every week or something?
