Re: (no subject)

[Gillian Densmore]

@Glen you and dug can feel free to let me know the joys of the unique feeling of a sucefull

sudo apt-get dist update --all wich basically does that ) on Mint

I made the mistake of trying that on a (hillariusly) Well Preserveved computer the only thing it said was: Their's a hard drive, and something about boot error.

It was a very buitful Grub Crash screen. Tux and Demon(the BSD maskot) looked quite pleased with themselves to be dancing rather than booting.

@Nick I hesitate to ask who or why you reinstalled...everything on your computer. And if it was on purpose.

Depending where your stuff is stored it probably take less time than you (I or anyone else getting a computer going again) suspects.

It definitely feels like forever  in my case because rumaging though 99 projects I may not actually care about and how well I organized stuff is pretty tedius.

Glen did bring up a good point that something nice about freshly starting a computer (Os and all)

In all seriousness I hope it goess well to get you computer happy and purring again.

I wonder if we can make it a thing in friam to label something as NoSubject when it's:

Oh: my (thing here) can do that?

@nick as to webmail their might be a setting someplace for your webmail so as you can sort out important or not.(Improtant: Go to FRIAM and Wedtech) (Not improtant: this is pri dot ncess Leah please send me f i v e bucks so I can es scape and make your dick yge!.and other variations on the African Prince Spam)

That's prettymuch standard, Their might be a way to see if earthlinks webmail does that.

You might like gmail as well it can do that and let you know if a thread on Friam, and other mail lists was updated.

I don't say you give up you earthlink adress. Only that gmail is free and you might like it.

Unless you tried it already.
