switched from libreoffice to wps because reasons
i'm a bit more used to wps layout (i have it on my phone) but now it won't stop messing up the text formatting when i copy paste text from somewhere else eg ao3 😢 i can only either paste them exactly as how they appear on the webpage or with formatting removed. tried the 'match current format' option and i still lost the formatting
why do microsoft gotta have to be such a bitch
#random#to hell with 360 needing an account and internet and shit to function 🙄#i miss windows 7#things used to be sensible back then#anyone can help me with this#tried re downloading ms 2016/2019 to no avail#couldn't activate them even when the key seem to work#my old ms word was a native install that come with the laptop when i bought it#so i don't have the old key/file with me#and microsoft is being so damn difficult about it#we didn't have to deal with shit like this pre win 10#with all these 'always connected' and 'cloud' bullshit#microsoft ain't getting any money from me EVER#my brain and me

I used to have tab counts running into the thousands, but browser development outpacing my laptops had meant I can no longer have more than about 200ish before it starts to run out of memory.
As for why they're there: yeah, usually it's because I find something I want to save for later but don't want to read right now (and in those cases I really should be better at backing them up to bookmarks - every so often I lose my tabs in a browser crash and it turns out that my last saved tabs listing was weeks or months old).
And sometimes it's because I'm researching something and have a few dozen relevant pages on distinct but closely related subtopics that I consult sporadically depending on where my research takes me (and I don't always remember to close the ones that are no longer relevant).
I don’t like it when I have more than three tabs open how are some of you keeping over a thousand of them open
#tabs#lots of tabs#i miss windows 7#definitely should bookmark them more often though#i'm sure i'm missing a bunch more tags that i should have added here but forgot

ramble about FreeBSD and Unix~~
how out of my depth would I be trying to install FreeBSD?
would it even boot on my machine?
am I smart enough to go through the install for the system itself as well as get the GUI that I want?
I think you have to go through the command line for quite a bit of time before you get a GUI up and running....
I started off being really interested in BSD/Unix in high school, and tried to fiddle around with a BSD live disc thing in a book (that I don't remember the name of) and then only fiddled around with Linux.
I've been watching videos on youtube of people expressing how stable FreeBSD's modern release is~~
I want to use it on my own hardware; but that's a problem with it I believe, is that it works on sort of limited amount of hardware, as opposed to Linux, that you could even run on a toaster...
Is it really that much harder to deal with than Linux?
Of course I've only dealt with a few distros~~ the rundown of distros I've messed around with are;
Ubuntu (not anymore tho)
Debian (current os being Linux Mint Debian 6)
OpenSUSE briefly (tried to get my sibling to use it on their laptop, with them knowing next to nothing about Linux, sorry...)
Fedora back in high school, I ran it on a laptop for a while. I miss GNOME....
Mageia (I dual booted it on a computer running windows 7, also in or right after high school, so a long time ago)
attempted GhostBSD but it wouldn't boot after install from the live CD (also many years ago at this point)
I like to hop around and (hopefully now I have, yeah right...) I can't make up my mind which I actually want to use permanently.
Linux Mint Debian edition is really good so far tho~~!!
Current PC is an ASUS ROG Stryx (spelling?) that I bought on impulse many years ago~~ Was running windows 10, fixed the issue and now use the OS stated above~~
or maybe I should maybe ditch Mint and run straight Debian... Thought of that too. and it might have an easier time installing and actually booting than FreeBSD on this machine...
but then BSD and by extension unix is meant to be used on older hardware and to be efficient both in execution of things, and space.
"do one thing and do it well" iirc was a bit of the unix philosophy...
yeah, no I HATE technology /heavy sarcasm/

Honestly, Microsoft should make "Windows 7: The New One" that's literally just the original Windows 7 but with updated security and compatibility with new programs.

Continuing the story,
Nikki nightmare travel log
Everyone: memories = suffering
Mercury being "haughty" to the old god -> extra suspicious
(Of course, his plans have plans)
On that note, I thought he was already gone
Where did Nikki get the mirror (vol 2 I guess)
Fight fight fight
Dodora ;_;
Meeting under the moonlight
Wait, what's going to happen to the other envoys
[TBC]
And that's where I left of. Tapped through the rest of the story so I could claim the concepts >~<
Now waiting for the hell event to appear on Journey Review...
#shining nikki#had less than 7 minutes#even tapped through most of the extra bits#which wasn't necessary apparently#so#I ended up missing the last sticker#on the share window#just by a second#ahhh

im about 120 pages into gideon the ninth and im in love with this funky butch dyke <3
#she's so me#gideon the ninth#i miss fighting#and im LOVING the realism with the sword fighting bc YES it should be hard to switch fighting styles bc it IS#i spent 7 years doing what was essentially streetfighting (kenpo) and tried to learn jujitsu and i could not get the hang of ground fightin#my brain is hard wired to believe if im taken to the ground the rules go out the window and i go feral#bc if your doing self defense focused it usually does mean all rules go out the window

sometimes i look at my laptop and i just think. god, imagine how you would be if you were windows 7.
to clarify, i fucking love my laptop (even if he keeps wanting to physically break on me). mik is my baby. he is the best running laptop i have ever owned in my entire life. going on 6 years and still going Strong. but imagine.... imagine if windows 7....
#🔪.text#windows 10 is better than windows 8#but quite frankly that is Not a high bar to pass#that bar is underground.#there are definitely features of windows 10 i really do like#(night light you are my savior)#but windows 7 will still always be the best and i miss it so much#and ohhhh my god.... mik with windows 7?#he'd be unstoppable#nothing could beat him.#he would be The Laptop Ever#and i already love him to death#i am literally planning on just replacing his ssd rather than getting a new laptop#for as long as i can i will try to just replace parts to keep him going#mik has done so much for me and has been so so good to me#like yeah he is slowing down a lil bit now#but compared to my previous laptops?#he is doing PHENOMENAL#i mean jin. he. can barely run last time i tried LOL#he is. so so slow :')#and my last laptop it took me like 2-3 hours to transfer all my stuff just because of how slow it was at that point#i think jin is gonna end up being the same way#but mik? not mik.#mik's fine.#anyway that's enough on me gushing about my laptop#i do this frequently btw#i can and will talk about how much i love my baby boy (my laptop) to anyone who is willing to listen

HI WINDOWS 7 MY BELOVED HELLO thats so based
-anon that rewatched ur animated for like 2 days straight
windows 7 is like family to me but unfortunately i will have to disown him soon
#all because steam will stop working on january first. So not fair#also because they stopped making games for windows 7 at this point#i bought hades and ori 2 and some other shit and it didnt work#oneshot also didnt work but i doubt that’s a windows 7 problem considering oneshot is old af#if silksong came out in 2023 and didnt work on windows 7 i think i simply would’ve gone missing#But let’s be real by the time it comes out i will probably have windows 10#maybe .#hopefully#cramswering

#so like in the sequel of the story im currently saving my whole computer on a hard drive that my husband got me for my bday along w synth//v#in order to install windows 8 instead of 7 just so that i can in fact use said synth//v.. its a whole ordeal#so anyway while files are copying etc i stumbled upon some rlly old stuff from my old computer like some chat logs i had saved#when i was a teenager i had an obsessive personality so i saved certain logs of conversations with people that i cared about#like some w my evil ex when we were just friends n everything was still ok#so like i read like 2 conversations so far n its rlly somth wild.#ok so.#my evil ex did this thing especially when we started dating where he would tell me stuff thats obviously untrue about himself or the world#like just lies but told straight faced and seriously. and it wasnt just some little lies it was like obviously impossible stuff or misinfo#thats easy to fact check#at the start i humored him but the more he did this the more i saw he was serious and it didnt rlly matter to me that he was believing some#wild stuff (like he had powers or whatever)#but it was a problem when he would tell me while expecting me to believe it especially if its misinfo about the world or somth#or he made up incredibly wild excuses for his bad behavior#like i went missing for a week and didnt reply to you bc i was on a time travel mission or whatever.#i got rlly upset about it bc i couldnt reconcile that i thought he loved me but still told me untrue things that i thought he had to know#were wrong#i wasnt sure at the time bc trauma bonding etc but i started suspecting that he told me wilder and wilder stuff to see what he could get#away with to like trap me into a manipulation cycle.#so anyway the interesting thing is im reading these logs from a way earlier time when things were still good (just friends at that point)#and like?????? already he was telling me these fake things. but it was related to a media we both liked at the time#and it was just a thing me and my friends did. like we pretended some of us were married/dating characters or whatever and making things#up about our imaginary life w them or whatever. i was particularly into it and would write fanfic#or draw art about this etc#so it was on that note. but like i knew that this was fake? it was just a fun game for me like a coping mechanism but i still knew reality.#but rereading those logs now is chilling bc like the signs of him doing that were already there but somehow i never noticed???#fdhjksfhdsjfhdsjkfhdjkshfdjksfgfgsdjfgdsjfyuertezutrhfdsjgdhsgfdsjgfdhsgfdhsjfgdhsjfhjghfdjfjdslfhdjsfdhlsfhjdyufhdsjfkhdskjfsd#its fucked up too but i cant help a feeling of euphoria rereading those logs i was always just so happy to talk to him at the time.#so. fun! things to tell my therapist#lodia sayings
