Well... a couple does mean two exactly. A few means between three and five, I believe.
You were taken to court for expired tags?
Only thing I can't backup are applications, like RollerCoaster Tycoon, but I can just reinstall those.
If I can get it to behave when I get back, I can have a look. It doesn't really matter, though. Both my mom and I are getting new computers--it's about time, anyway, since we've had these since 2009. Although, while slow, the Dell we have, which is older, as a substitute for when one of our computers breaks down still performs well. Now I have my laptop, though, which I will be using for now, so I don't need it.
@Stardust, don't worry. Be happy!
The only one other thing I can think of is hard drive failure. Apparently that's possible according to my computer-savvy friend. Computer seems to be okay now, but I've turned it off and am going to give it a break, likely for the rest of he night. My backups are updated and I can access things like my music from the external hard drive.
Pretty sure it's not a virus as the weekly scans pick nothing up. And it doesn't matter, anyway. We're both getting new computers. My mom found a refurbished one for me that has four gigabytes of RAM and 750 gigabytes of hard drive space compared to my two gigabytes and 250 gigabytes (232 usable). She's willing to help pay for mine for Christmas, but I have to pay the difference. I haven't used any of the $150 I got for my birthday, so that won't be a problem. I would just have to install a lot of things again, but that's a price to pay, I guess. This is when I'm thankful that I have a laptop.
My computer has been having problems again the last few months. I'm 99% sure it's Firefox, but the last time I tried to uninstall and reinstall it, it didn't completely start on a clean slate as my add-ons were still there and such, so that didn't help. I may just move to Chrome or something and suck it up. What happens: Especially if I leave Facebook on the news feed (Home), Firefox will start freezing up until I refresh Facebook; when I do that it will continue freezing on and off until Facebook reloads. Well, on some occasions, it also freezes my entire computer, and the only way to resolve that is to close Firefox whenever my computer unfreezes and wait for the process to close while my computer keeps freezing until it's done. At this point, I may as well just get a new computer! We replaced the motherboard back in summer 2010 when it kept freezing then just by being on for five minutes--no applications open or anything. We replaced the power supply multiple times--it's likely that the bad motherboard kept frying them. And then, if anyone remembers, we replaced the CPU fan in January of this year. I don't know what else it could be. On top of that, my mom's computer has been having problems for the past year, mostly just slowness (not freezing AFAIK), so much that she had to disable Aero, and she's also looking at a new computer. Also note that she also had to replace her motherboard. Ugh! We've both had our computers since 2009, I believe. They're not that old and shouldn't be having problems! /rant
Spanish 101 and Math 75 finals out of the way. A on the Spanish oral exam, but not sure about math yet. I guess we'll see when I see my overall grade, though next quarter I can go in and pick it up.
@Plums told me he hid his age a while ago because he prefers you make his birthday threads.
Happy birthday to you as well, @Plums! @Fearless, this is supposed to be your thing, and you forgot!
Too many bugs.
Ew, no.
Yeah, I know how to do it. It's just a hassle, haha! Rather than just selecting Show All, I have to go through each one and have it show except the Windows 10 icon. I don't know if that would stop the popup notifications, though.
I'm right there with you.
http://www.weather.com/weather/today/l/USWA0130:1:US And if you look at the 10-day and expand it by clicking Next 5 days, you'll see we're going to be having wet weather for quite a while--rain or snow--including, as of this time, several days of snow in a row beginning December 17! And we've already been having wet weather for quite a while as it is. Hardly any breaks! So far, in terms of snow: November 24: Snow December 1-2: Winter storm snow December 5: Snow I'm super-duper happy!
How are you?
Well, hello! Long time no see!
Heyo, amigo! Hasn't been three days for me, so this is solely in regard to @Laura Matsuda, who's been patiently waiting a week for a name change. :)
My final English 102 paper is due this afternoon, and I haven't even started it. Well, I have with a very short paragraph or two, but it needs to be re-written. It's based on what we do as a group. We can either continue what we did or choose a different topic, in addition to doing it alone or with the same partner--I'm doing the same topic alone. We made a slight change and changed it from minorities to lower class. We also meet to have a presentation on Wednesday.
