    Condolences, GF. Don't dwell on it too hard. Just go and live.

    So after almost giving up on the PC last week, it magically booted windows. Seemed to be running fine all day, Shut it down before I left for work for the week. Got home yesterday and tried to turn it on. First try, it posted to the brand screen then went into dos? froze there. Tried again and it cleared bios and windows icon loaded and froze. I walked away. A couple hours later I noticed it had an option to "start normally" or "repair". I clicked repair, and it seemed to lock up again. Walked away for an hour and came back to an option for system restore. (thought I had that turned off) Tried that, walked away and came back later it was up and running again.

    So bottom line is it's on life support, don't know if it's a BIOS issue, motherboard issue or my 10YO SSD is starting to crap out?

    I grabbed an old APC battery backup from work and ordered a new battery for it to see if I can keep the PC from shutting down for now.

    Still haven't ruled out a new PC. Saw Microcenter has a AMD Ryzen 7 5700/8core/16thread/ 16GIG ram/ 1TB ssd rig for $850. Only issue is apparently there's no room in the tower for a 3.5" drive?? Said there can be space for two additional SSD drives only.

    Not the ideal option, but you could always get an external drive. They still make those, right?

    I have some but with 3TB of files accessing an external is just so much slower. Plus I would need to leave it running 24/7.

    That was fucking WILD... when he was storming the stage I thought it was a joke but absolutely not. Will slapped the shit out of Rock.

    I didn't realize Jada had alopecia though so shit joke on Rock's part. I'm trying to put myself in Will's shoes if someone said that to my wife... but I still have crazy second hand cringe. That was nuts.

    I thought it was staged when I saw the initial hit, but then Smith's screaming afterwards and Rock's stunned reaction, the f-bombs and scramble to cut it, and then that weird acceptance speech where he was sort of apologizing and ranting about defending family... I personally vote not staged. That was really... something

    Kinda feel for the next Comedian who gets slapped by someone who thinks that's an acceptable reaction to a joke that missed the mark.

    Well, Thor had another seizure over the weekend, around midnight Saturday night. That's 4 in 19 days now for the poor guy. Our vet has recommended a neurologist to talk to, which we will, but we're thinking we are getting near the end with Thor. We aren't going to put him through all kinds of tests and treatments just to try and get a little more time out of him. We want him to have a good quality of life and these seizures are taking a huge toll on him and we don't want him to live like this. And all this is after the vet upped the dosage on his medication twice since the seizures started back up.

    It's going to be even harder though if we have to make that awful and hard decision because we just lost Pepper not that long ago. It all really sucks.
