So my once mighty laptop ground to a halt this morning. Not bad considering its nearly 3 years old and never had a rebuild.
I have lost a fair amount of data but managed to get operational. Just a few little tweaks to go and I should be back in SL!
I will now have to go out and look for a new laptop, I don’t want to chance any more losses. I had come to rely on this ones stability. Fortunately I have an older laptop with I bust screen I could extract the drive from. But like everything, I couldn’t find the driver disks and my nic wasn’t detected. So I had to download the drivers using my PVR and the transfer them to my laptop (with the help of my ipod!).
Of course, now it is set up, I will be sure to mirror all data to my network drive. the only thing I am really not happy about is all the custom fonts I have lost.
But lesson learned, remember folks, be sure to back up your data, frequently – XD.
So, I was reading so of the notcards at the PAO (People Against Oppression) main office in furfall. One recommends googling yourself every once in a while. Well I did!

Not bad for the first 15 (well 16 because I removed something about Tuxedo’s). The little ship ones are from Torley Linden’s Blog. I made him a little avatar a long time ago – XD. I also found chat logs from meetings I forgot I attended and loads more.
It is suprising really how much you forget. But thanks to the wonders of the internet all those memories can be revived.
Thankfully I have never done anything really nasty, these things can come back and bite you! If I ever get a moment I will google some random Avatar names just for giggles. Of course, I wouldn’t be malicious, but I may IM the Avatar and say ‘hey, do you remember . . . .”, XD.
