sat behind a learner driver today in the car as we travelled around doing things.

Noticed there were two L-plates (white square temporary-ish stickers or magnetised plates with a red upper-case L that are stuck onto cars of drivers who are in the process of learning to drive) on the back.

...Then noticed it was a Renault Clio car.

If you don't know, the logo of Renault is like, a diamond shape, with the top and bottom trimmed off, and the centre hollow.

The L-plates were either side of this.

me meeting temmie for the first time: "haha, 'muscles r not cute', what a mood."
me immediately after meeting undyne: "temmie how are you this wrong about things oh god."

If you have $4 and like cyberpunk, help me put some food in my kids' mouths!
"This is secretly the greatest and also funniest cyberpunk point and click adventure game on Steam. Very low-fi art style but the gags are just too good to pass up, and a lot closer to a "real" cyberpunk dystopian future than most favorites of the genre."

Uh... So, there's a game coming on Steam called "Going Under"? and there's a demo available for four days?

and you should play it because... it's pretty rad??

new animal crossing villager idea: An unusually buff blonde dude. He only shows up if you have a rabbit villager, and he's just a normal dude who hangs out. If the rabbit villager leaves he'll send a letter that says he has important work to do elsewhere and leave.

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.
