Thanks everyone.

In less than an hour, I'm getting off work, and then I'm heading to the library.
I'm not going to bother asking for permission anymore.

You used to ask for permission?

Well, that's one problem gone, at least.

Go independant MC!

The fix for 2 is to just keep fullscreening and un-fullscreening until it fixes itself.  At least IME.

Fucking windows 8.

I start useing it for the first time in a few years (because the windows 7 computer I was using at this location was moved to another) and they decide to force me to sit thru 10 min of shit that makes fucking GOOGLE look simple. I mean, what the fuck would I have done if I dident have a fucking cellphone? Answer, nothing. I had to enter a cellphone number. Then theres the bullshit with "oh, you must access yer email from another device to get a code to let you logon here" and then the pure fucking BULLSHIT with the passwords.

I actually had hope for fucking windows 8 again, and they killed it in 15 seconds.

I've installed at least 50 windows 8 machines in my time.

You try making a local account instead of a windows live account? You can still upgrade to 8.1 free if you do that.

Thats with 8.1, I should have said that.

Well, two first world problem rages.

1) Robocraft ate £5.95
I've gone to their tech support, though, so hopefully...

2)Youtube's fullscreen overlay doesn't want to disappear, now. I keep the mouse perfectly still, unplugged it and everything, but nope. I clearly want to see the mouse and progress bar at all times.

Chrome, right? It's doing that to me too. My solution? Migrate my YouTube usage back to Firefox until something screws up for YouTube on Firefox, then migrate it back to Chrome (where the issue is usually resolved).

[Orange Wizard]

That's what I do. It's terribly frustrating, but there you go.

[Wolfkit]

And here I am watching YouTube on my iPod. Using the stock YouTube app on iOS 5.

[mastahcheese]

WELL.

That went about as well as I expected.
Shouting was had, references to my father were made, insults about me being selfish and self-absorbed were made.
Pretty much everything.
She's now going over to her mother's place, claiming that she doesn't want to, and that she "hopes I'm happy I got what I wanted".

I have a feeling this won't last much longer. But I'm over here, now.

[mastahcheese]

"hopes I'm happy I got what I wanted".

If I was you, the answer to that would be 'Yes. I did get what I wanted.'

Apparently that's not the correct answer, it seems.

Texting back and forth now. Continuing to be insulted, and every time I point out how I've been getting treated, they act like I've been treated like a Saint.
Because of course, nothing they can do is wrong, it's all me.

[Orange Wizard]

I hope this is progress, in any case.

[Arcvasti]

Either way, what Orange said. Wait, is II a different person with the same avatar or did they change their name?

Yes. Yes he is.

[mastahcheese]

I think II changed his name.

In any case, I'll be the only one in the apartment tonight when I leave the library.

*Sigh*

Gonna feel strange, but I can't cave in to this anymore.

[Graknorke]

Just so long as you don't let them get to you, it sounds like you're in a better position by far than before.

[mastahcheese]

From the sounds of things, that's actually GOOD.

Better to have no company than bad company, in my mind. Well, until you try to get to sleep then start thinking of PERFECT comebacks.

Just so long as you don't let them get to you, it sounds like you're in a better position by far than before.

Yeah, I'm just trying to pass SAN checks at this point.
This is harder than I thought, I'll be honest.

[Antsan]

I wish you all the best.

Do you know some outsider (to your situation) you trust (and who can actually come over to your place)? I heard they give buffs on SAN.
Also they could help you with support in front of your... I'm not sure what to call them.

Not really.
I don't have friends in real life. Like, at all.
