In which I wonder what to do with all my computing power
I finally got everything on this computer set up to my liking (and getting the display to work was a huge pain), and was just going to fiddle with some scheduling crap, when my other computer suddenly returns. Which is wonderful, of course, because there are certain things (update itunes, play some games[1]) that don’t work so well on this computer. And yet I feel almost sad and wistful about going back to it, because though sure, I don’t use mostly the command prompt stuff, I *could*. I am less wistful because they replaced my keyboard (full of cat fur), ac adapter (full of broken wires) and motherboard (full of not working right) and now it is working again, so hey, two functioning computers! Right now I am vaguely thinking I should use the windows one for entertainmenty stuff, and the linux one for basic web browsing and office stuff (bonus: watch movies while using the computer more easily). We’ll see, I’m not sure I can really pull off multiple computers that well.
Right now, of course, I’m having intermittent internet issues. Computers have been hating me lately.
[1] Web browsing and office applications work just fine here, and it’s way easier to make a pdf on this computer than Windows. I don’t like the video playing as much, but it works. I know that most of my use is goofing off, but goofing off is fun.
