Waiting on a book I ordered for my course, and stupidly excited about it.

What kind?

I'd love to have Sony for a change as my current one is Toshiba

Formatting my laptop. I hope the backup application favoured up spill the stuff I had on there. I've definitely lost the music and TV shows I downloaded. Especially Firefly and Serenity.

Do you have a backup on an external server? Also, does this have anything to do with installing Windows 8?

I got some files backup up to a server through some backup program. But not everything is backed up.

It got screwed because of hard drive encryption by McAfee that prevented the windows 8 instal from allowing to dual boot and this locking out the Win 7 partition.

You weren't able to run Ubuntu or something to back up your files?

 

[ßöмßäяðîëя]

Not only that, I'm naked and computing in the shower!

The hard drive is encrypted. So can't access any data on it.

Burkaspor!!! How you doing?

 

[swag]

The one and only.

Btw, King is non-religious. Who wudda thunk it?!

There's no presents, not this Christmas.

Fell asleep with my laptop on and it apparently ignored the 'turn off after 30 mins' that it so happily does when im downloading somethiing. Now i've got sod all battery before my lecture

You and your Polish girl doing a little eNapping together over Skype?

Go old school. Take a pen and a pad

Yeah. And not only that, what you make with it will actually hold up in court as proof of your living address.

Hiyo, Ramtastic!

Hammer n chisel is the most boss way to take notes

True. And on days you forget your hammer, just use the forehead of the student sitting right next to you.

@Kate: My work laptop just got raped by McAfee. Might lose all my work data.

Yes, we are well into the world where the virus prevention is as bad, if not worse, than the virus itself.

Not only that, I'm naked and computing in the shower!

And the computed answer there says, what? Four inches?

I would agree, but this time, it was the PC Encryption that fucked me over.

Fucking Norton pisses me off, it comes loaded on every computer i've ever brought and its a nightmare to get rid off.

God does exist.

I hate people that take lecture notes on laptops. I just want to turn around and slap the shit out of them.

Is it the keyboard noise? That would drive me nuts.

Otherwise, here it is 2012 and I am finally only 98% there to eliminating my hand-written note-taking for electronic means...

I hated that too. and most of the time they were playing FM instead of following the courses.

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

OK, seems like the My Documents and My Pictures folders have been backed up. So data loss should be minimal. Now restoring about 2900 files. This should take a while!

 

[swag]

All those gay elephant pr0n vids take forever to restore.

hi class of fresh

 

[Fr3sh]

Class is sooo boring though.
My battery is almost dead and there's 30 mins left in class...so I guess i have no choice but to pay attention.

What's weird is being at meetings. Take notes with a laptop, and people think you're following the meeting. Take notes on a mobile phone, and people think you're checking your email or playing Tetris.
