[Cthulhu]

Probably gonna end up buying it used on Amazon for 30 bucks and forking over the 80-something for the other one.

[Jopax]

So after a lengthy conversation it turns out it's the money, now after literaly months of giving varius reasons for me not to go to that university only now do i find out that they really can't afford it, well that's just swell

[Vector]

On the other hand, that book I put all that effort in to buy for "only $95?"

The professor decided to tell us on Sunday that it's out of print and we're using a different text.  I HATE the author of the text he's using, I don't want the book I have, and as-is I'm probably going to give up taking the class honors and just see if I can't take it with my usual professor because they're using the same terrible textbook, anyway, and at least the dude I'm talking about doesn't need a machine to talk and can write on the board.

Fuck.


Also, I just woke up a little bit less than half an hour ago, which has put me in a terrible mood.  This occurred because I stayed up until 6 AM wasting time, which happened because I was so tired my sense of judgment went kablooey and I almost literally couldn't get up.  4 hours spent doing nothing after 2 hours dozing off in front of the heating vent, all because it was cold and I'd pretty much lost the energy for proofs.


Today, I'm just so pissed off.  I don't feel like putting up my laundry, I don't feel like washing dishes, I don't feel like talking to my annoying roommates (one of whom apparently wants to set me up with his friends), and I don't want to go buy more food or spend my time cooking anything that doesn't involve a lot of chopping.

Fortunately, most of the recipes I'd planned on involve a lot of chopping.


And there's only one more hour of daylight, too.  That's annoying!

[Tack]

And ZombieFarm won't give me a damn brain!

[MaximumZero]

Really, really hate my body. Why can't it just leave me alone!?

[The Merchant Of Menace]

Amen brother!!

[KaguroDraven]

I'm sad becouse I'm stuck in an endless cycle. I became lazy becouse I was a kid who was stupid and didn't want to do anything. I later got depressed for many years over something else and didn't want to do anything becouse I was just sad and depressed. Now I'm depressed becouse I don't do anything and I want to, but being depressed makes me not do it and tends to make me even more forgetful than I normally am, which makes me lazy, which makes me depressed, etc.

My internet has been doing this weird thing where it starts to get amazingly slow, then I recycle the modem and router, and it's fast again.

Your router is probably choking on something. What model is it?

[ein]

A shitty one, apparently, so I guess it's a moot point.

[fqllve]

Oh, I have that model.

I was having the same problem until I switched to a higher voltage power cord. The one I'm using now is 12V and it's been working perfectly for almost a year now.

Not that you should necessarily do the same, since you could easily ruin it.

[ein]

Meh, I've been looking for an excuse to get a really nice router for awhile.
Of course, I'll probably have to buy it, but whatever.
Better speeds, better range, all that stuff.
I don't think I trust anyone else on this property to buy the right technology.

[G-Flex]

Wait, why would you use a higher-voltage AC/DC adapter than what is intended to be used for the device? That doesn't seem remotely wise.

[fqllve]

It was an accident. I was moving it to a different room so I could plug my comp in through the ethernet and I got cords switched up. The problem was solved, and I thought it was because I moved it or something. When I realized it was the wrong cord I switched back and the problem reappeared, so I said screw it.

It's not something I would have intentionally done, if only because of the fire hazard.

[G-Flex]

Using the wrong voltage power supply for a device is likely to cause problems for the device itself. I would say that maybe one of the adapters was just problematic, but then again, it seems weird for something like that to cause such an intermittent problem.
