travelling via alleys as usual and found myself kicking something which turned out to be a pendrive

took it home, was full of corrupted files other than a single .jpg of nicholas cage and then my internet connection died so i'm posting from the derelict that is wap again

fucking amazing day
There was an image on Imgur a few days ago which was about the same thing. Top comment was saying everyone should leave a flash drive with nothing but a single weird/funny image on it :P.

Hmm. I'll see if it was a onetime event, then.
... even if it isn't, it doesn't necessarily mean, well, anything. I guess for some people they have dreams that, like, correlation to current events or whatever, but... some of us don't. Which, t'me, casts sufficient questions upon the dream-interpretation as a whole to just kinda' ignore it, enjoy the pretty hallucinations, and get on with gettin' on.

Not to say it isn't fun to give things an analyze every once in a bit. Just... don't put much weight on it, I'd say. Others would disagree, most likely, heh.
Given that I've had to suppress involuntary thoughts about this person in the past for some peace of mind, I think it correlates.

Have you tried to restore the files on the Cagedrive? Because a mysterious alleyway harddrive could contain many secrets.

i assumed that if i recovered anything it'd only be more cage-related files

also if i have an imgurian in this town it's time to pull a string or two and parade a giraffe across town to find the fucker and slap them with a banana

LET IT BE KNOWN THIS WILL HAPPEN

or not, you know giraffes are kind of rare around here and the ones that can be found have quite the busy schedule

nevertheless i will attempt to recover the files with .......................... some norton disk utility i last used when i were first installing windows xp. i trust its competencies.

Take a pic of it and I'll post it on imgur, if you want.

Joe is waiting for his stereotypically unpunctual common father-in-law to go from Mass to Hartford(~1.5 hours if you obey the speed limit).  In a city he left years ago in a neighborhood thar he would not walk down tge street alone at night in.  Sigh.  He pays well at least.

Sounds like the start of a creepypasta.

Bought a SATA card of Newegg so that I could hook up a second hard drive and my DVD drive at the same time. Had to remove the mounting bracket, as it was low profile (NOT mentioned in the product description), before installing it. Could not get Windows to detect it, and I encountered intermittent bluescreens the entire time.

After an hour of messing with it, I realized that I didn't even need the goddamn thing, because what I thought were 2 SATA ports were actually 4 SATA ports (2 stacked on top of 2).

I am an idiot.

The main trouble is that I'm still subconsciously expecting IDE connections (hell, it still takes me a few minutes to find PCI slots sometimes, because I'm looking for ISA), and SATA ports are so small and thin that I must have just assumed that there was only one in each stack. I feel so old.

It's only a matter of time before we're all .jpgs of Nicholas Cage.

I think I might start leaving thumb drives around full of corrupted files and a single picture of Nic Cage.
