Poor PhaetonjawaproWed 21/05/2008 10:18 PM
My poor computer (Phaeton) is now only running on a single Gig of RAM. Thats the same as my old JadesFire WAS when it was new - even it was upgraded to a Gig and a half a few months ago.
Why would I buy a good computer and only a Gig of RAM?
Well - I didnt.
I bought 4 Gigs of RAM.
But 2 sticks were faulty. So I've been running on 2 while I negotiated getting them replaced.
But the bad news is that the RAM came in 2 pairs, and to get it replaced, you need to send the matching pairs back to the shop.
And wouldnt you know it - I had a faulty stick from each pair.
So I finally got organized and have sent off the first pair (one faulty and one not). When they replace it, I'll be able to use the good ram, while I send off the second pair.
Must be pretty odd to get a 50% fail rate. Hopefully the next lot will be better.
And yes, that picture is of me under the desk, keeping my computer company.

HeadachejawaproTue 20/05/2008 10:03 PM
Wow - that's one nasty picture. I'll get another headache if I look at it much longer.
Amazing what a google image search can dig up.
Anyway - as I was winding up at work today, I got a headache. Just in time to go home - great!
I managed to make it home safely, turned on some music, and then went to bed for an hour.
When I recovered enough to notice, I realised that the music I had put on was constantly playing the same song over and over. Clicked the wrong button - whoops. At least it was a good song...
I'm ok now, as long as I dont look at that picture too much.

Ginger BeerjawaproSat 17/05/2008 06:49 PM
Well - I'm waiting for the clothes dryer to finish the load before I can go back to my parents place for the rest of weekend - so I'll waste some time by posting about my well traveled bottle of ginger beer.
A while back, I was doing the grocery shopping, and I walked through the soft drink isle - stocking up on cheapest coke substitute. As I was walking through, I noticed the bottles of Bunderburg Ginger Beer.
Mum normally makes home-made Ginger Beer around hay-carting season. It tastes different to the bought stuff (I think its better), and I suddenly felt like some ginger beer - so I bought a bottle.
I took it home, put it in the fridge, and then forgot about it.
When I was getting ready to go down to Hobart for Turkey's birthday and things, I decided to take it with me to drink on the way.
I arrived in Hobart, and it still wasnt drunk. I took it in to Emmas, thinking I'd drink it for tea. But turns out the KFC we bought came with drinks, so I didnt drink it then either.
I was then planning to drink it for breakfast, but Emma had plenty of juice, so I didnt need to.
Then I took it with me to the Laser Skirmish thinking I'd drink it there, but then decided it looks a bit too much like a bottle of beer, and you're not allowed to have alcohol there, so I left it in the car.
I then planned to drink it on the way to Tarana on Sunday, but once again I didnt - and the same with the trip back up North.
So I carted it around all last weekend, and didn't end up drinking it. Emma found it all rather amusing.
Well - so as not to leave everyone is suspense - I finally drank it tonight.
There - that used up some time, my clothes should be dry by now....

Late for work...jawaproTue 13/05/2008 10:09 PM
I was over an hour late for work today.
It wasnt a problem though - they knew I was going to be late.
I worked last night for a couple of hours (starting at 8:30) to do some more network maintenance.
Since I was still tired from the weekend, work agreed that I could take the time off in the morning instead.
Just for the record - I've never been that late when it wasnt pre-organized. The latest I've been was about half an hour when the Frankford Highway was closed for a while when a truck fell over.
