I tried to setup my old PC with linux to make a lamp server, to familiarise myself more with linux at a level that is useful. Suffice to say I need a lot more experience as it was like trying to fix a car engine with tweezers while being blind in one eye.
Soon gave that up... But the PC has kick in it.. so I decided to try an older version of windows... Windows 7 to be precise.
Welp, wamp just wont install on the bastard. It does, actually install, but then throws an obscure error on starting that leaves me wondering.. all the resources online point to microsoft c++ redistributable, which I loaded onto it.. 2008, 2010 & 2012. Same error. No other solutions. So screw that idea.
I'll go the next one up, Windows 8.
4 hours later and a hard drive chugging away driving me batshit insane, I decide to put on netflix, as it wont need the keyboard and mouse (until I install vnc) and I can continue to let it shit itself slowly.
I suddenly realise the speakers I have with my main pc, are only one speaker. I fiddle with the wires, the connectors, as it has been a constant problem for me. Only to realise it won't come back.
By now I am fuming in a rage. The hard drive is still chugging away despite nothing happening on the god damned piece of shit, for 45 minutes, an entire episode of Stargate Atlantis. I lose it, and whack the speaker jack on the back of the subwoofer. Yay, good ol' wrecche. busted the fucking plug inside...
Ok, no problem, calm down.. I'll fix it.. I unplug everything and grab my pliers and screwdriver. but wait, how do you open this god damned thing?? it's moulded. It's got no access.
Red .. Red is a colour I see a lot. It makes me bleed. Blood is red too. They go hand in hand, and it is usually my hands that end up bleeding. I took the bastard out the back and opened it, carefully, with an axe. Right down the middle, Fuck it, Fuck you and Fuck sound.
but it's no good, I cannot get to it. However this was made, it was never meant to be repaired or some funky little pricks in some weird midget land, have hands the size of gnats and ... fuck them too.
Well, now I sit here, I have no PC audio, No LAMP server (as I decided the chunking noise, yet another hour later was going to cause a rift in the space-time continuum and result in a PC in pieces all over the floor.) I have now got my PC audio piped into my shitty GVA TV, that has NO remote. I can either watch TV, or the PC. Not both now, unless I entertain the idea of headphones.
And it's 1:50am. Thankfully the only things broken are my hands, the Amplified Speakers, and my spirit. And my will to live.
Roll on fucking 8am, I am going to start today with a hefty guzzle of something yellow and grapey, and fuck the rest of the day.
I'm just so tired of the usual shit...
Oh a brighter note, I bought another 10watt 5v 2xusb solar charger, to make up for the one some prick stole from me.
So bite me, life. I am going to not give a shit, going to pack my inch bag and I'm going to go wandering one day soon. very soon. Have a few places mapped out where it appears to be mostly bush land. Near the river. I'll eat a fucking duck or two if I have to...
Burn you god damned peasants...
