Is it wrong that after upgrading to a 4K at my desk, now I'm nostalgic for the old beige/greenish site?


Yes :lol:

I guess I'm just nostalgic. I'm thinking about building a desktop system in an old beige case but now it's looking like my next setup will simply be some boxes & adapters behind this screen. Between three computers I have 5 keyboards & 3 mice (just switched for ergonomics).

*edit* Though I still want a beige box to drive it.

There was something very satisfying about inserting a 3.5 floppy disk and the chugging noise it made

What's a floppy disk? Sounds like something from the Flintstones.

Well, finished with my A+ computer certification so, now all I have to do is taking my time doing my daily classwork lessons.

You put in the hard work and it has paid off.

I have one in my back, about 4 inches above my tailbone. Aiyiyi.

Hello, all.

I'm very tired again today. But, I got 13 pages written of Book 2! :D

I'm the sort of person in whom it's gotten to the point that I can't think of a certain ethnicity of at least certain persons without thinking of a certain racist and derogatory word to attach to them, tbh.
