(I know it means Editor now, but I still really, really cannot shake the whole "who is this Ed guy really" feeling in my brain)

Shoutouts to little young Ren who when reading old Spectrum magazines wondered why all three had some guy named "Ed" who would write comments in the articles in brackets all the time and who this Ed guy was

honestly Starbucks and Costa coffee and shit like that are a massive fucking bugbear for me because now I can't find coffee shops that just roast coffee beans and they've singlehandedly destroyed that market in exchange for shitty mass produced overpriced coffee and tax dodges and I'm pissed about that.

I don't even like the taste of coffee but goddammit I want my real roasted coffee bean smell back, fuckos.

you can drink all the coffee, I don't mind. I just want the roasted bean smell

hi please come to my house and roast coffee beans just so I can smell that delicious roasted coffee bean smell

honestly Nichijou has so many amazing expressions

you know what my favourite reaction face is?

it's from Nichijou

it's that flat expressionless face they make when things go wrong.

You know

the one all the girls make in that one scene in the Shrine when it rains, and everything breaks.

goddammit i had just fixed this and now a windows update broke it all again

ah dangit no it's not working.

also for some reason my pc is convinced the printer is offline. it isn't. it's fully online. it works on the computer it's attached to. it's detectable on the network. but it's "offline" as far as my pc is concerned hhhhhhhhh

last time my network actually worked I had just fixed the samba shares thing for my retropie which despite being connected directly to the same network switch my pc is connected to would not be recognised no matter what and it was fixed by a credentials manage-...

....OOOooo.... maybe I should try that again

so I AM on the network, they can access MY computer, theoretically (though my credentials for my pc just.. don't fucking get recognised on their pc at all I guess?? because MYSTICAL REASONS I guess), and can access each other but ohhhhh no i gotta type in the friggin compute rnames and hten usddenly "OH RIGHT, YEAH, that computer DOES exist!" so I go looking at the network and then WELP they're GONE AGAIN AHAHHAHAHAfhasfkljahsfhkasjfhasfjhasfffffuuuuuccckkkk

oh no. oh god it gets better.

I CAN access the other computers, providing I MANUALLY TYPE IN THEIR FIEROHAOOFSA COMPUTER NAMES ARHUEGH

trust robots and AIs tho because we're okay

do not trust computers they are bad and evil

me: "god I love computers"
*spends like, 5 minutes actually trying to fix any problems on a computer*
me: "oh right no I don't I fucking hate them. why do I keep forgetting this?"

wtb networking that actually just... fucking networks

these pcs are connected by physical cables. it's not like it's some mystic art of wifi or some shit. PHYSICAL. CABLES. Into switches!!

It shouldn't be hard! It should be the same network! It should just go "oh right there's other computers here lets see if I can access them" and then telling the computers "Yeah let's all talk to each other"

and you do that

but it's still like "NOBODY HERE BUT US CHICKENS"
