Posting this a day late, with 47 minutes left until my streak breaks.
This weekend I have angered the technology gods.
I finally got around to mowing the lawn and the mower died. $400 later, I have a new mower which is actually a really awesome mower and I'm happy with it.
Later on, I decide to use Hisuite on my computer to try and update my phone. Halfway through the update, my computer powered off. "ah damn" said I. Power Outage.
Except the computer was the only thing to turn off.
But then it turned on again!
And then off.
And then on.
And then off.
And then on.
I eventually ended up pulling the power cable.
Last time that happened (a few years ago) the whole thing caught on fire. Don't really want another fire.
Extra fun: You may have seen me mention that my phone was halfway through updating. After a few hours I managed to get it back up and running, albeit with everything completely wiped. (yay)
Luckily I'd already uploaded the day's photos to my computer because ... oh wait. It can't be powered on.
That's okay! Luckily everything uploads using Odrive to Google Drive so I can just use my laptop to finish everything.
sets up laptop and turns it on
laptop flashes rude words back via code
me: starts to meltdown
Finally got the laptop working. Because it has no battery it gets cranky being powered off. And it also doesn't like the cats jumping on it.
By this point it's about 2am so....
Anyway, enough about my weekend. How about yours?
120mr And there is your cat, laying, resting and watching your struggle... ;)
