Oh really. And what do you think he's collecting all those rings for?

I can't blame them, their cousins are hot.

For a moment I thought that was Christopher Walken.

Leaded Smog no less.

Imagine what it'd be like when those babies grow up and try to run things. I don't imagine it would go well.

Maybe that Tyson DeGas guy or someone I dunno.

Then I think the point I'm taking from all of this is that our experience is are real, And they matter, even when they're just inside our head.

What do we make of it that this skeleton is a figment? A dream? A fantasy brought on by relationship & psychic trauma?

There is a long-standing hope that one day, the US will become part of the world. 😁

Getting any printer to work is hard enough.

Getting an old, worn unreliable one is not a solution that would work for everyone. I doubt there would be enough of these for everyone who hates their printer anyway.

Also, printer nonsense has been going on so long, it's probably impossible to totally avoid

They used to be incentivised not to by the prospect of losing votes.

Before the dark times. Before the Empire

 

My NAS was getting increasingly annoying.

It would give error messages about not being shut down properly after scheduled restarts.

Apps would sometimes work and sometimes not. I had to manually stop and restart my video library each time to make it work. It was slow, it was refusing to do more than one thing at a time.

So, I finally started it up. Shunted all the data to external drives, setup the box from scratch.

Between it being fresh, and me knowing better what I'm doing and how I want things from the get-go, it's running better than ever, better even than when I got it a few years back.

Interesting, while it was offline and being setup I found myself realising how integral it's become to my day. So much stuff I went to do, only to discover I needed my box.

It was intended as a file backup and server, but so much has changed since then, I've grown used to having it here!

Still tempted to get an upgrade, maybe later this year if things workout well with the cash.

Wanted to share this with a community who can appreciate the feeling of having something working well!
