Since everyone is talking about free video games, if you have an epic store account, there are 3 super cute (and I think non violent for 2 of them?) game for free for now ^w^ (100% price reduction)

The general consensus seems to be:

1) 20th Century Fox owns the "Alien" franchise.
2) "Alien" xenomorphs are born from a Queen.
3) Disney is buying 20th Century Fox.
Therefore
4) Xenomorphs are Disney princesses.

Nope, guess it's just gonna sit there being useless. ._.;

there's no bloody help on this thing either, everyone just says "just reinstall it, that makes it work" well newsflash, no it fuckin' don't. and this is a wholly incomprehensible piece of software too. I have NO idea how to make it work. Would be bloody nice if I could help but apparently the ABILITY to help is only for super l33t haxxors or something I dunno. fuck it.

Okay so... the client is reinstalled... ... ... ...

aaaand...

cpu and gpu are ready...?

waiting???

It SAYS it's connected, but... it's still doing nothing. diddly squat. zip. zilch. nothing. nada.

Right, restarted, so I could reinstall FAH, to UNINSTALL it, to RE-REinstall it clean. and... hopefully this'll work this time... c_c;

aaand of course, I go to RE-install, and it CAN'T reinstall because it thinks it's STILL RUNNING EVEN THOUGH CLEARLY IT IS NOT what the bloody hell.

WELL then. o_o

so I tried out that Folding@Home thing because hey why not, maybe it'll help medical science a little.

...turns out it doesn't connect at all. So I look for help as to why to try and get it to work, they suggest uninstalling then reinstalling! Great!

So I go to uninstall it after closing down the client... it... says that the client is still open. It's not. It really isn't. Even task manager says so. Welp. can't uninstall fully, it leaves a file on there.

Now, some oddities. fast.com says my unloaded latency is like, a nice lovely 18ms, and loaded is a respectable 180ms.

Ookla's speedtest.net on the other hand says my ping is is anywhere from 700 to 890ms. which is...

...not good.

...Something's weird here. Either way tho. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO INTERNETS.

SO UH. UPDATE.

Forgot about the internet thing.

I decided to test it just now and uh...

Remember how yesterday I said my download speed topped out about 3.9 Mbps?

Reaching 19Mbps today. Goshhecko. That's not even a "slowly ramping up to that", it's just "BAM HERE WE GO MAX SPEED TIME TO PUT ON EUROBEAT AS WE SURF ONLINE TOKYO DRIFT"
