Trying to get an IDE for C running, because I am so lazy, but this is proving to be more trouble than it's worth, as is the way with all things that should be incredibly easy to do. WHY DO ALL THESE INSTRUCTIONS INVOLVE OPTIONS THAT DO NOT APPEAR IN MY EXISTING SOFTWARE.

EDIT: Sooner or later, all problems can be traced back to the Ubuntu Software Center. It seems to insist on using outdated versions of programs that then create obnoxious conflicts with the newer versions that I install when I realize the version I just installed is out of date and the instructions are for a newer. At least, that is the impression I get.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

 Welp' now my computer does not recognize that it has an operating system. Installing another one could cause instability, and the Linux USB thing is out of the question.

 At this point I would be okay with just making sure the operating system ismgone and installing fresh without messing with my files or programs.

If it doesn't think theres an OS, you're probably missing the bootloader, or something related to it.

 Yeah, loading was the original issue. The question is though, how do I fix it? In a safe way anyway.

Burn a LiveCD (or DVD) of whatever Linux distro, and boot from that to check out the situation or back up things.

Freaking parents.

The human body does not function according to a ticking clock as you may wish to think.
Nor can I conciously induce melatonin (or, at least, I think it's melatonin...) release.

Therefor, concepts such as "bedtime" are insanely stupid. Such action will simply result in me lying awake in bed, doing nothing. Whee.


Also, why in the world are you allowed to make all the commentary you want during a movie, while throwing a hissyfit over any comment I make, and threaten me (not physically, mind) when I would prefer equal silence from you?

Would you like it if I shut down our entire network and start changing passwords? I can do that. There's a ligitimate reason not to have the only computer I can use be the core of our network! Better to deal with putting the one currently hooked up in my room, and using the older but still functional one to be the network connector. Doesn't matter if it works or not once you have it hooked up right (because then how would the system work when the core computer is off?)



Sorry if there are any errors here, typing from an iPod is not easy and I'm not in the best of moods, hence my presence here.

Well, I'm stranded in a motel that I was at about a year ago (with some weird shit going on then), and I'm probably going to go to school a day late, but I don't give a shit.

Best solution to this I can find is when you own the pills and don't have anyone around you don't want getting into them is to find if you can disable the childproofing. Usually there's a thing in the cap you can  pry out for that.

If not then next best is to just transfer them to another bottle or container and mark it.

Yeah, just put them in a different bottle, but if you do that, make sure you label them and keep the original labeling. That shit's important, and unlabeled pills are the devil.

Also, tildes aren't periods.

I don't really have any spare containers, unfortunately~
And yes, I use tildes as full stops, because full stops feel cold and emotionless~
They make me sad, and tildes make me happy, so~~~

Great the shitfest of the week with my roommate.
His girlfriend is pissing him off and he starts a rant of dropping all of his friends and the usual "fuck the world" he pulls.
Told him to calm the fuck down you're overreacting, understand you got some brain damage but you can relieve the damn stress.
Then he rails on me how i don't fucking know anything, im a leech to his family, i don't know pain like him (hes been in a very shitty car accident which he barely made out of), fucking jump a climb or something like that.
Well i snapped then, I yelled at him for being a fucking idiot. Its his fault that he fucked himself up in that accident, hes been having problems for 2 years while i was isolated for 10 fucking years, told him he had friends that damn cared for him ever since his bullshit started while i begged to find help other than myself. That my biggest reason to move in was not for school or to stay for my girlfriend but fucking HELP him get out of the house and come back into the world, something that im experiencing new as i been alone for so damn long.

Well he threatens me that i will be kicked out while his mother watches us incase he jumps me and ends up popping his aneurysms in his head.
Told him hes ungrateful and doesn't see what he has and left the house for the night, here i am X_x

Nobody on Earth actually thinks like this. Either you're an actual honest-to-god anime character, or you're engaging in some kind of trolling/parody I'm not picking up on.

More seriously: The tildes are irritating. I don't know why you do it, but it's irritating. Intentionally mangling your text doesn't make your posts any more easily or comfortably read by anyone.
