Hot damn. My first experience with Windows Powershell was not a good one. The labs in my Workstation and Server course require me to do the same things I did using GUI except with Powershell. Powershell isn't very user friendly, at least when the text I'm using makes no effort to try to teach me the thing I needed to do. I eventually figured it out by using Microsoft's website, i think. But I spent an extra 45 minutes trying to figure out its command syntax and then trouble shooting why the commands weren't working. Pfft.

Can anyone tell me why the fuck there are some websites where I have to answer a survey before i can download a password to a rar file? I was downloading an ebook about guitars. The .pdf is password-protected in the .rar archive, and I can only extract a .txt file, cunningly titled "PASSWORD". What I saw is a link from Download Safe, which I thought at first is the password itself, turns out I have to access that link to get the password. By then, i knew what's gonna come next once i enter that link. Unsurprisingly, it's one of those do-a-survey-and-give-us-your-number sites. It pissed me off, especially since i want to read that ebook. I'm running this software called Ultimate Zip Cracker to help me find that password, though I doubt that I can get that password at all.

If anyone on here is willing to talk one to one with me, I'd like it. I'm really not feeling the best and I just want somebody to talk to... Please. Steam name is Jeb_CC of course. Shouldn't be too hard to find.

I'm almost always up for chatting on Steam... Feel free to message me any time I'm not listed as 'Busy'. (I switch to that when I don't want, or can't talk)

 

Steam: BTGbullseye

 

Ain't I so creative with my Steam name? lol

The file is a complete fake when you get those. Just trash it, and look for another copy. It's the only thing you can do.

This. A legit file would have either put the password in the text document itself or with the website it came from. Not sure why they do the former because it's pointless but the latter I can probably see for sites that don't want the download taken by other's or mirrored.

Already gave up and trashed that rar file. After a couple attempts on recovering the password, i went "screw this". It still pissed me off though

[BTGBullseye]

If you can give me the name of the book, I can see if I can find a reputable source for obtaining it.

[Binky The Rabbit]

I bumped into my ex today. She didn't register my presence. This was a tipping point.

 

I've lived in Newcastle for nearly two years, and almost every single good memory I've made here (she was only part of it) has turned to shit in these past few months. I'm so close to giving up, dropping out, and moving back Glasgow, maybe even back to my home on the Isle Of Arran. I'm done with everything. I just want to get the Fuck out of here, I care so little about my degree right now, I see no point in staying.

 

Sorry, I don't like to vent, but I'm just so angry and frustrated with everything right now.

 

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY. FUCK.

[Vapymid]

She's an ex. She's not supposed to make you feel good anymore. Treat her like a memory. That situation has run its course and is over. You are free to look for someone else now.

 

And your degree is what really matters. Ten, twenty years from now you will hate yourself if you screw up this because of a skirt and a flush of hormones, believe me...

 

Regards

[Vapymid]

Darn.. Now I need to vent. I was going to write that I quite liked the first two songs on you EP but it would look as if I was just trying to cheer you up on account of your broken heart, wouldn't it? Darn!..

 

Regards

[Binky The Rabbit]

Haha, don't worry, I appreciate your thinking But nah, she didn't break my heart, mainly because we didn't get far enough for me to really fall for her. The whole situation is pretty crazy, and not really worth getting into, but essentially, I had a good start to 2014, but it went upside down by xmas, and I've been feeling pretty crap since. Bumping into my ex just sent me into a rage. I'll get through it, but I could have done with today not happening really!

 

Thanks for liking the songs too

[Jeb_CC]

Sorry you're not feeling the best Binky. Hope you achieve a rageless expression soon. And Happy Valentines! For those who don't have a partner, don't worry. The word isn't attacking you. Valentines is to celebrate and be thankful of the ones we do love. It's not to be jealous of those who are in love. And for those who feel lonely, I know someone out there likes you. :3 You'd be surprised. Hope is a wonderful thing. So just sit back, and enjoy your moneyful life of being single before you settle down with your true love.

 

EDIT: Time for me to rant. 1. I hate going to Church. It's boring as FUCK. 2. I especially hate it when my parents come in and say we're going to Church right NOW. Me, obviously not ready, haven't had breakfast, nothing. Ugh.

[Jeb_CC]

Another Vent.

I reeeally hate my parents. To the point, where if they died, the only thing I'd be concerned about is money. I'm not even kidding. They say they're the most loving parents in the world, they say that they're better and more forgiving than all the other parents. But I call absolute bullsnot. I agree, I have troubles looking after myself. I don't eat a lot (Mainly because I'm really fussy with what I eat), I don't brush my teeth every single day (I'm forgetful), and I don't shower a lot. (I hate water so much, unless I'm swimming in it). But... I just hate being cornered in my room, being yelled at, being spat at, saying I suck at things, saying I don't care about myself. I get good grades, I have a job, I'm a friendly person with awesome friends. But none of this seems to make any difference to my parents. If it wasn't for my friends, I would have killed myself long ago. Or hell, killed my parents. You usually don't see that one on the headlines do you. *sighs* I had a shower, once I got out, dad started growling from the hallway. He told me to look decent. I said; "okay!" So I started putting my clothes on. "Hurry up!" He shouts. "I am!" I yell back, giving up on the rest, just pants on and a towel around me. He comes in, complaining I didn't have a shower, saying I just dunked my head in the sink or something to make my hair look wet. He then goes on to accuse me of every other thing I can't do. "Do you think I'm treating you unfairly?"

"No."

...I always have to say no. I always have to lie, because if I don't, I might get slapped, or he'll growl even louder.

Fuck, now I'm crying again.

He told me to go shower again. I didn't. I left the tap running so he couldn't hear me emptying out all the bottles of shampoo and conditioner. If I go down, everyone else will go down with me. I don't care about them. I'd rather be homeless than live here. I'm only here for the free education and internet. About 50% of my weight comes from the food that I buy for myself. I just, I want to give up. But I can't.

[BTGBullseye]

If you ever end up in my area, you have a safe place to stay for a while.

Thanks man.

[Binky The Rabbit]

Likewise, though you probably don't have any plans/incentives to visit Britain.

 

Stay safe.

[Vapymid]

OK. I'm not offering you to stay at my place as you have already got plenty of such propositions (but if they all kick you out - sure, do knock on my door).

 

There's something, it seems, about teenage daughters and fathers that causes sparks to fly... I am glad to say I don't have any direct experience with that (don't have any daughters) but I have a sister and in her mid- to late teens she and father would just go into a shouting match for no reason I could see...

 

Thing is - how to avoid it? Can it be avoided, even? Don't ask me...

 

But, I would still suggest you make your unhappiness known. Just taking it quietly but then seeking revenge against inanimate objects in private is not going to serve you well. You'll just make yourself feel miserable all the time. But don't do it like my sister either! Try to make light of the situation but still give a joking retort. Use it at the same time to let him know about things that irritate you (I'm sure, your dad is not infallible in his own personal tidiness - no man is).

 

The important bit is - you will need to be able to do this anyway, when you'll be living with your BF. You both will have to find ways how to let each other know that closing the toilet lid or not leaving a tampon in the bathroom is important but without making the other side feel that it is a personal rebuke. Before you unleash your mock fury on your boyfriend, though, you might as well practice on your (unsuspecting) father.

 

Humour works best for this and for an occasional situation when it doesn't - a couple of plates smashed on the floor would usually do the trick

Vapymid's right. I've had my share of "seeking revenge against inanimate objects" and all i'd get would be a broken hand (and a hole in my closet door). Anyway, like Vapymid said "Make your unhappiness known". Talk to some friends, vent it all out here in this thread. it'll make you feel better, at least a bit.

 

I guess it's my turn to vent. I'm just SO FUCKING TIRED this week. I had to squeeze as much schoolwork as i can before i leave for a 4-day school tour. I stayed up until 2am for the past few days just to finish some slideshow reports for my subjects, and make instrumental mix for a broadway review show for a school play. All this, just so i won't have to worry too much during my upcoming school tour. I still got stuff to do, but i thought i'd post a bit here because i just miss visiting this forum.

 

Edit: i forgot to add that while the week is close to hell for me, there are some light moments like how i was able to get away with a "free" ride in the bus going to my school. I didn't even realize it until a few hours after the fact (i was sleeping during the entire trip).

*pats back* There, there AP. :3 You'll be all good in no time. You'll have soooo much time to relax soon! Once you get all the busies out of the way, treat yourself! >w<

The HDD that had my OS finally imploded. I'd vent more the the toaster I'm posting from couldn't even brown a poptart it's so weak. I don't know what to do now, how do I even get a new OS?

[Jeb_CC]

I'm slightly going insane. Sitting in the common room, nice and quiet, then someone takes out a packet of chips and starts eating. God. It makes me so fucking angry. I hate the sounds of eating so much. Hearing jaws click, teeth grit, tongues slurp. It's so ergh, and it makes me legit want to punch someone or leave the room. When my BF eats over Skype, I have to have him muted or I have to take my headphones off, because I just can't stand it. It's only eating noises I have an issue with. Not sure why it pisses me off so much.
