Life ending cramps. *whine* Life not worth living. Also, holy God, does my uterus need to stop that shit.

Computers and Me

Spent half of last night resetting the network to better facilitate full-house coverage, because my hobbies with cramps and low grade misery are not as other people's and also, I got to get out a wrench and my screwdrivers. There is partial working, but still not enough.

After googling, here is what I have learned:

1.) Access point/repeaters are not cheap and wtf is the point of a second access point when you have to ethernet cable it to the first router? Call me crazy, but if I have to run a cable across the house to hook to the repeater to get coverage for that part of the house, the point of wirelessness is lost. And yes, I did ask if I could wire the walls and I can still hear the laughter.

There has got to be a better way to do this.

2.) Set up Shareport to hook the backup drive directly to the router. Way too slow--I call 1 MB/sec slow, God, the world I live in--but I want a NAS. Badly. What I don't know is which one. I'm not philosophically opposed to RAID and I'd rather invest in an enclosure, but holy God, the choices. It would make my life easier if I could move all the media onto that and everyone plays with it from there. Not to mention backups.

3.) I am no closer to solving the problem with hooking the bluray and TV to the internet, both of which come with ethernet, and so far as I can tell, neither have the ability to use a USB wireless adapter. What the fuck? First world problems whatever, if they are going to create tech that actually requires internet access to update it--and the bluray has to be updated or it won't work--then either give it internal wireless or fucking make an adapter. People who buy things like this are tech sluts. We will do this happily. We like buying these things to play with and figuring out how it's set up. Good God.

That's why he goes bad, you know -- all the good people hit him on the head or try to shoot him and constantly mistrust him, while there's this vast cohort of minions saying, We wouldn't hurt you, Lex, and we'll give you power and greatness and oh so much sex...
Wow. That was scary. Lex is like Jesus in the desert.

Obi-Wan has a sort of desperate, pathetic patience in this movie. You can just see it in his eyes: "My padawan is a psychopath, and no one will believe me; I'm barely keeping him under control and expect to wake up any night now to find him standing over my bed with a knife!"

It's weird, after you get used to the affection you get from a rabbit, it's like any other BDSM relationship. Only without the sex and hot chicks in leather corsets wielding floggers. You'll grow to like it.
