PSA to all Dtoid & Cohost users in Eastern Washington, there's a wildfire going on. Please pay attention to the evacuation orders given and get to a safe shelter area. To those west of the Cascades: wear your masks as the air quality sucks and hunker down
I'm on cohost as @Cygnus-Rush so that will help you lot recognize me from here.
Cygnus Rush is on cohost, just trying to figure it out for when qtoid goes the way of the dodo.
Saw the new trailer for Forza Motorsport (2023) and I really hope that Turn 10 does proper QA before release as FH5 was a mess on launch day. Might pick up the "Premium Edition" later as I don't want to deal with that type of "Launch Day Disaster" again.
Feeling a bit miffed at the Noisy Neighbors today, the fuckers decided to start using their fucking motorized toys and race up & down the street. (ATV's, Dirt-bikes, Side-by-side vehicle being said toys). They could've saved it for when they left but nope
The joys of being a sysadmin at home, have to keep two desktops (Corsair 275r cased PC, Alienware Aurora R12 PC) and my mother's laptop (Alienware M17 R4) fully updated (drivers, anti-virus software, security patches, windows updates, etc.).
Sorry I was dark last week, I had my hands full with volunteering at the anime convention in my state (Sakura-Con 2023) and we were shorthanded.
Seems like Qtoid is a bit borked, hopefully the people behind the scenes are aware of this and are "actively" getting it "un-borked" Edit: Looks like the people behind the scenes got things "un-borked", knocking on wood that other things don't go wrong.
Currently snowing in my area (PNW), soundtrack is quite appropriate this time of year.
I love having to play phone tag between a business that I ordered from and a shipping carrier to find out an order's shipping status. All due to the shipping carrier's order tracking webpage not being properly updated.
Have a replacement stove that actually works courtesy of the property manager, let's just hope the W's keep coming on the homefront.
In the process of testing the new GFCI outlet that was installed on the December 29th 2022. Don't know if the outlet gave up the ghost due to age or if it was via the small refrigerator or the chest freezer out in the garage. Fingers crossed.
Had the outlet in the garage give up the ghost on Christmas Eve. Managed to save all the food from the freezer and got it into the freezer in the kitchen, not exactly a happy elf at the moment.
Little update on the homefront: got the stove-top heating elements replaced, the outlet in the garage for the big freezer and small refrigerator still works properly, and found out something was clogging the vents in the master bedroom & bathroom.
A little bit miffed at the moment details in the comments.
