Websites that continuously harass me into allowing them to send me desktop notifications. Ain't happening!
The bread is the wrong size for the hot sandwich maker. How did I deal with this previously? Can't remember.
In FireFox there's a massive amount of configuration options, so much so that you have to google the 'about:' id's for your particular issue. It can block by site, but there's that pesky first time. If yer not using FireFox, I'm dumb as usual..
I was supposed to be working at home on a report I have to finish - my work laptop decided this would be an excellent time to "perform a major update" on W10 - it has now been "Do not turn off your computer, performing updates" for three fucking hours
And that's the reason I'm unwilling to update my pc to this version. I've heard a lot of smack about the updates. Can't you personalise it to manual updates? At least get it to show some basic courtesy manners, like ask you whether you'd like to perform the updates now?
I'm sleepless, bored, tired and having a really bad hair day. Soon, I'm going to have to step outside, where the blinding daylight will damage my brain even more and the wind... Oh, the wind. I swear that it's lurking out there just to get me. (It's gone rabid I tell you)! I'm going to have to travel for an hour (walk/train/walk some more) towards the busy center to attend my three hour class and I think that I'm already seeing things that don't exist. If my eyes weren't so dry I think that I would cry.
You can on a personal machine Our work IT bods prefer the "complete heap of shit" mode - there is a reason that Will Smith used a Mac to save the word in independence day... if he'd used a Microsoft machine he'd have connected it to the Alien mainframe and it would have said "Installing update 1 of 1654 , please wait"
NYC public transit....again. If I didn't have to pay outlandishly for some parking in the city, I'd just take the car, though that doesn't mean driving in the city is all ecstasy and happy blowjobs either....
Another... Undoubtedly, tonight the topic of marriage will come up and seeing one side is a Christian family, while the other is a Catholic one and Moon in the middle doesn't subscribe to any religion...oh boy. Great and holy cheesecake deity, give me the strength!
This was only the beginning. How little I knew then... My monthly contract is fucked. I can't pay my provider, even when I actually set up the direct debit (silly me thought that was automatic as they used my card in the store at time of set up-wrong!). Tried and tried to pay, not happening. I speak to the provider, they just tell me no payments have been received, I spoke to the bank who gave me no info whatsoever, just said I'd get a call back. I'm not holding my breath. But money has left my account, so where did it go if it wasn't the provider??? So, I am back to ye olde pay and go box of yesteryear. So freaking glad I kept it!!! The real funny part is...I topped up the pay and go box with my bank card. The same one that apparently can't do direct debits to that company for reasons no one will tell me.
Additional FWW. As a result of the direct debit disaster, I lost my 35 day streak in my online French course. Bastards. I should sue for the emotional trauma. Seriously, I have cried a lot since it fucked up. The internet that is, not the online French.
As an online Google doctor, I'd recommend heavy doses of Fallout with some Rad-X/Rad away for tonight.
I slightly tasered myself and now my fingers are a bit numb. At least it gave my partner a laugh. She's had a rough week. Also...that chick with the shotgun is going to hurt herself unless she puts the butt into her shoulder properly. Fire it like that, she'll have her teeth out.
Maybe not. She's shooting skeet with what looks like a gas-operated semi-auto. Skeet loads are pretty light IIRC (it's been a few years), and gas-operated guns have reduced felt recoil.
With a barrel that short, be careful the muzzle blast doesn't set your clothes on fire. Or hand-load reduced-propellant rounds, but that kind of defeats the point. But a Desert Eagle semi-auto in .44 Magnum or .50 AE might be a better choice than that single-shot monster. [[ETA: in keeping with the thread title: "But the Desert Eagle only carries 7 rounds in the magazine in those calibers."]]
