#and saved several of my fave fics again. so. just gonna have double copies of some

[dahllaz]

Months ago my main PC quit displaying any picture but wasn't sure if it was a graphics card issue or motherboard or cpu. And I just hooked up the 'old' PC and have been putting off pulling the card out of it to start troubleshooting.

But at some point its network port or something failed because I noticed today it was only connecting via wi-fi and not the faster Ethernet cable. Which explains why Twitch and the sites I watch TV shows on are constantly buffering badly the last few weeks.

So finally did the card swap and found that was the issue, as the old AMD card does work in the 'new' PC. And the Ethernet does as well, so that's definitely an issue with the PC and not the Spectrum equipment. Which is good, I was not wanting to have to call Spectrum lol.

But now I am kicking myself for never saving my Calibre folder to my external drive. There's 600+ fics that I can't access with that PC out of commission with it's graphics card in a different PC.

And! Also realized, as I went to comment on a fic, my little cheat sheet for resizing gifs is also on on the PC ssd and not my external drive.

SO dumb. SO ANNOYING. really wish i'd thought to copy those folders to the external before unhooking everything.
