      Being from Memphis, we're hit the hardest with the news of his death. Beale Street has been non stop with tributes. I'm not that big of a blues fan but the older members of my family are. He will definitely be missed.

      My condolences, I had never heard of him, but from what you people are saying, he was a phenominal muscian.

  4. I will do the software upgrades I’m supposed to as soon as I get a minute to breathe…. :rofl:

      yup, 12 hours yesterday, 17 the day before, no days off for the foreseeable future.  At least until we get our new hires in and trained.

    3. BronxWench

      BronxWench

      But you have new hires, and hopefully it means an end in sight. And in the meantime, let us know how we can help.

      Keep doing what you’re doing, you guys are saving me!

  5. So, as I’m sure many have noticed, I’ve been busy trying to work myself to death for the past five years or so.  So, in that time, I’ve worked ridiculous hours with very little time off, and often multiple shifts in a day.  As a result, I was more than a little unproductive here.

    I retired the end of March, and spent the first fourish months doing nothing but sleep.  Have one final test from my doctor on November 22nd, so should be done with all that shit for a bit as well by then.

    In the meantime, I am now checking all the email addresses I always did before, as I now have the time.  Am easing back into the archive repair, minor hunting, and other things I did as well.

    Sorry for the absence, but, glad to be back

      Oh, well, hells…

      I’ve been sucked in (finally!) by Dragon Age Inquisition. It’s actually amazing, and addictive.

      awwww thankee. The actual fix was by the coders at ckeditor. Although I certainly have things I must do to OUR code to make it all work.

      Talk to the owner to raise the pay offers?  (oh, sorry, thinking outside the box here...)

    3. BronxWench

      BronxWench

      Seriously, if you were closer, I’d toss Elderspawn into your lap and tell you to work her to the bone.

    4. WillowDarkling

      WillowDarkling

      Given how Elderspawn has been making you fume lately, I’d be tempted to just send Elderspawn anyway… :devil:

  11. After work, this one gets to join the Hall of Shame. http://www2.adultfanfiction.net/forum/index.php/user/18036-harrysgirl7life/

      What, the kidlings haven't been trained to do laundry yet?

    3. DemonGoddess

      DemonGoddess

      she helps with it. We just have to redo it all, allergies to the stinkin' perfumes and dyes

    4. DemonGoddess

      at 711 total installed, that makes 174 installed today. So far.

      RL stuff sucks.... like cleaning my RL house today after I leave my RL job... grrrrr

    4. DemonGoddess

      DemonGoddess

      LOL, yep. Gotta do the damn dishes and laundry, BESIDES this bedamned thing I've been working on.

  14. So, work is still hell, still working entirely too much.  finally may have the email sorted out since I upgrade to Win 11

      Desiderius Price

      I wouldn’t fret, win 10 will be supported for most applications for years to come (like win 7 is).  The #1 reason I won’t be upgrading any time soon…heard they won’t let you use “local” accounts, thus I’d basically have to ask Microsoft for “permission” to use my computer, which isn’t how I like to roll.

    3. DemonGoddess

      DemonGoddess

      keep yer fingers crossed that I finally get my damn store fully staffed, would you guys?  So, so tired of unpaid overtime because I’m salaried.

    4. DemonGoddess

      DemonGoddess

      So, with the help of Nexcess, finally have the email thing sorted.  Didn’t think I’d EVER get that done! :lol:

  15. except for some minor issues (which I'll fix at a later time), wallotext in books is DONE!!!

  16. I’m not sure what CAUSED the outage, but it’s now fixed.  It looks like our ISP had to reboot the server after I opened a ticket

    1. BronxWench

      BronxWench

      I managed to miss that outage. I was working on a spreadsheet, and then went out with the pup. I’m actually at my lake place now, and using my ancient and incredibly slow laptop, so I probably would have thought it was just my technology acting up again. 

      At least it was a quick resolution!

    2. DemonGoddess

      DemonGoddess

      Apparently we had a failing hard drive.  it finished failing this morning while I was at work, but Nexcess, being the excellent provider they are, had it fixed very quickly

    3. Desiderius Price

      Desiderius Price

      Well, if it’s like my recent internet outage, a squirrel did it.

  17. Happy Birthday Neko! Enjoy your day!

  18. :bash: still editing out that stinkin' unnecessary code string...which is anywhere from 5 to 120 lines of damn code. I HATE Word.
    1. Shadowknight12

      Shadowknight12

      I'm sure the hate club grows every day.

    2. DemonGoddess

      DemonGoddess

      What's even worse, is all these lines are at the very beginning of the chapter, calling for non existent .css and .xml

    3. Shadowknight12

      Shadowknight12

      Don't the MS programmers know what they're doing? Aren't they supposed to be the best in the world or something?

  19. Is not setting foot outside the house for ANY reason....entirely too damn hot out.

      114 here, I'm going for the hermit life this summer. Thought about getting in the small pool I got my dogs. Haha.

      not looking forward to tomorrow, back to work, no a/c in this nasty hot humid YUCK disgusting SHIT

  20. Alrighty then…

    I watched Episode 5 of the Rings of Power.  

    There is so much wrong in this episode I don’t even know where to start!

    1.  Mithril is not a melted Silmaril.  The Silmarilli cannot be destroyed.  
    2. Galadriel is wearing the sigil for the House of Feanor.  She is not of that house.  She is of the House of Finarfin.
    3. Tar-Miriel never went to Middle Earth.  In fact, when Ar-Pharazon goes to Middle Earth, by this time, he has forced Tar-Miriel into marriage and usurped the throne of Numenor.  She is supposed to be Queen Regnant, not Queen Regent.

    I could go on further, but this episode has me even more furious at how they have destroyed the legendarium.

      Elrond stealing the table is the best part.

    2. WillowDarkling

      WillowDarkling

      I’ll admit, I haven’t yet read the Silmarillion, but how the fuck can you fuck up a legendarium with such abundant source material?!! Like, Tolkien quite literally left us the equivalent of a guidebook…

      @WillowDarklingSheer Unbridled Hubris.

      Hollywood writers seem to think they can be Tolkien but fail. It’s a a bad fanfiction based on something they don’t even have the rights to but think they can anyway.

      They’ll say things that come off fantasy-ish to a normal viewer but to the rest of us the character seems a bit stunted? Episode 5 pretty much cements galadriel knows she’s evil like a rabid dog chasing a car. And despite that the Harfoots are worse than orcs. Which makes it seem like Sauron is the one protecting the demonic critters personally.

      @DemonGoddesshit the nail on the head. Durin and company are unironically the best part of the show.  The sole flickering light of it even.
