    When I was younger, sometimes I'd wake up and be really thirsty. It was like a next level thirst though. My mouth and throat would be really dry. But the worst part is that I'd be scared to go and get water down the hall cause my house was scary as shit at night. That hasn't happened in years though.

    ugh, the one problem with a big hdd: takes 50 thousand years for a virus scan to complete

    running virus scan because a lot of my games refuse to even open the launcher, and windows task manager won't update cpu usage and ram and all that stuff it shows no matter what setting i set the updates to

    my siblings shall never touch my pc again in their entire lifetime though

    after i get my gpu, i plan on getting an ssd, so that if i ever have to do a full on virus scan, it should be faster (and then sometime after that, a faster cpu as well)

    Do a system restore to a restore point (If you have it turned on) or find out what they did and Google a fix? (Browsing history)

    It was becoming a massive money pit, Fuel, Nitro, Worn out parts...Etc.
    It's a shame, We never hold on to our cars.

    This is a Typical day in Queensland Australia, A Burnout in a Valiant Watched by a Bunch of bogans wearing Mopar Shirts, Then the Coppaz show up. The Bogans Moved out of the way so the Valiant could Escape, They then Formed a highly Effective Bogan Shield to stop the Coppaz From Proceeding with the Chase.

    Ahhh Australia You've done it again.

    So, I found an awesome feature called refresh, that windows 8 added, so now I have everything fixed, EXCEPT that I cant get my old phones to give it internet, as it needs internet to get drivers for them :\

    Uh, I'm pretty sure that refresh thing has been around for a long time. (I don't think it was actually called refresh though.) I've used it in Windows XP many times.

    nope, tis a windows 8 only feature, it's bascially a factory restore, while leaving all your persona files alone, your probably thinking of system restore points or something like that

    So I took my laptop and had it share its wifi connection to my pc so that I could get drivers, now I keep getting drivers found, but device is configured incorrectly errors, as well as reinstall drivers errors, ugh, so annoying :/ restarting atm in hope that it'll fix those errors (plus windows downloaded some updates while it was connected, so letting it do that as well)

    The one I'm thinking of resets all your Windows stuff but all your programs and settings and stuff stay exactly the same.

    Nope, programs have to be reinstalled (as do drivers and the like, only personal files stay)

    Seems pretty pointless considering some of those "personal files" could be the virus causing the problem and even thinking of working out how to reformat Windows 8 makes me want to cut myself...

    Well a partition does the same job though without the risk of exposing the main install...

    so, windows updates decided to fail, and get in an infinite loop, booted into safe-mode (only thing i've noticed that requires a few more steps to get into vs previous versions of windows) and restored to before the updates, also found a cheapo wifi adapter, so there's that now as well, but all is well now, just have to re-download gmod and such :p

    After I made breakfast this morning, I went to go renew my application for a job at a grocery store because, ya know, unemployment n shit. I get on the road in this curiosity.
    (imported from here)As i'm driving down the road, some dumbass in a little moving van, around the same size as the cabster, starts veering into my lane. I stop, Mr moving van realizes hes about to hit about three cars, and oversteers into a clearing. Nobody was hurt, and the van wasn't damaged. I would have supplied pictures of the not-so-much-of-a-crash, but i left my phone at home.
