  • I mean…I Said windows did it lol.

    But for real, I selected to update my firmware from within Windows update. I tried for a couple days, but was not able to recover it. Since I had an HP pre built, I used it as an opportunity to upgrade. I got a new motherboard and a couple parts and I’m back on my feet.



  • I find that endeavor is pretty nice as someone who typically uses windows…I just can’t wrap my head around not having a GUI for software installs. Like, I want to install jellyfish, but when I search for it, there were like 30 different ones to choose. Installed a package that I don’t want, where do I go to find the exact name of the package and then uninstall?

    It was enough to send me to kubuntu, which is what’s on my laptop now. Basically only use the laptop for the web too, so likely no reason to change anything up.



  • Actually, I work in it and had to install a xerox printer for someone’s home office yesterday. Grab the driver’s, go to install and it completely failed. I told the guy to restart and we’ll try again tomorrow since it was the end of my shift. Guy messages me back, the printer and PC restarted and when he walked back to it, there was a page printed that said congrats on your new printer.

    Fucking thing failed successfully.
