Title: Low activity from me
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on March 11, 2012, 12:12:10 pm
As you might have noticed I have been much less active since last friday, particularly on OmnomIRC. This is because my computer video card is failing and it will probably be replaced in 2-4 days or so. For now I'm stuck on my iPod touch, which isn't super reliable for typing and due to Omnom freaking out in it someti
es. I should hopefully be active more again near the end of  this week (although by then I'll most likely be starved for some Starcraft II :P)

Ah, that explains why one of your posts showed up as being "mobile". I hope the repair goes smoothly and doesn't cost ya too much. =)

For me with iPod, Omnom ALWAYS freaks out :P

I guess it just plain freaks out on mobile devices.

Ah yeah, I've noticed a bit. I've been keeping neck and neck with DJ_O for post count this month (and a bit of last month too).
Though I've had to drop my posting rate a bit too (getting busy to exams time)

EDIT: Oops accidentally double posted. Thanks for the quick reply aeTIos!

You accidentally double-posted.

BTW sorry if some of my posts are missing paragraphs, but for some reasons on the Playstation 3 browser (which I use when my bro isn't home playing FFXIII) doesn't let me put linebreaks in texts I type. ??? I like it much better than the iPod, though, aside from the ridiculously slow internet connection this console has, because at least there's no focus stealing while typing like on my iPod.

I post from my Android phone sometimes, sometimes the cursor (or even the whole page when zoomed in) moves randomly so I can't edit my post with precision.

Anyway, yay for posting from devices that isn't desktop computers.

Also, doesn't the Playstation 3 browser have a problem with attachments?
Title: Re: Low activity from me
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on March 14, 2012, 03:03:12 pm
 Yes it has attachments issues, although when my ipod isn't charging up on my bro's computer I can always use that instead. I also disabled Omnom, else I got 5 frames per minute. But yeah on mobile it's really annoying to type because of that focus stealing glitch. I asked Eeems who got an ipod too if he knew how to fix that without jailbreaking, but he never responded...

I know.
When our computer was messed up, I used my ipod touch to get on omni and other sites, but the battery drained in like 2 hours D:

Wow that sucks, in my case it usually lasted half a day since I didn't use it too often.

Also yeah I got my comp back now. Finally it was the video card and power supply that got fried. I feared the mobo was, too, but finally it wasn't. I was a bit worried because some guy told me that if I had to replace my mobo, I would have to reformat my computer O.O

I probably won't me much active yet, though, since I work 7 days in a row.

I don't really believe that guy.

That's pretty insane.

7 days O.O
Is that even allowed by law <_<
Title: Re: Low activity from me
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on March 17, 2012, 01:57:27 pm
The max is 10 I think. You are allowed 2 days off per week, but those days can be anywhere in the week. If one week it's Sunday and Monday and the next week it's Friday and Saturday, then you have to work 10 days in a row. I think where I work they capped it at 9 days in a row, though, because I have never gotten to work 10 in a row.

O.O That's a lot of days. How many hours would that be?

No, you should be able to just keep the Hard Drive and use a new MotherBoard and you would be fine, no reformat required.

between 5.5 and 6.5 hours each. Pretty small days actually and not too rough. I work 28 hours a week.

As for reformating question thanks. Actually Netham45 told me I may have to reactivate Windows  and  on Cemetech I got told that I may have to reinstall Windows without reformating (which is apparently possible) and possibly have to fix several driver issues, but I would not lose my stuff (I do not have many important stuff, but I would hate to lose my templates for metal music making, my SC2 replays, Crystal Towers save file and a few other stuff. That reminds me I still have Omni backups lol. If there ever was a major crash and Netham45 lost everything including backups, at least I could be able to give back anything from 2004 to July 2011 :P

:w00t:
I wonder how big the backups were back then?
Also I haven't been posting much either recently.
