Comments: Cutting this entry kinda close, lol! This is for Mythological Irony. She's a very beautiful character, and since my color is way different between my computer and tablet, I really hope you see this the same way my tablet does, lol! xD

My phone also sees this differently...Ugh, I can't tell what it should be. x.x

Ooooh, this looks so beautful! Thank you!
(Her skin looks a little light, but other than the colors look fine to me. 3nodding )


Then your computer views it the way my computer does. My tablet and phone view it darker. sad

      We caught the two mouse in our kitchen.... I knew there were two of them!! I KNEW IT!! D:<

      And now we hope that's the end of our problem........
      We don't suspect any more, but we bought a few more glue traps just in case.
      They were surprisingly VERY effective eek

      Good luck with catching up!!
      You can do it!! ;D

I caught a mouse in one of these once:

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

It snuck into the house in a Christmas Tree and when we opened the tree up it ran into the stereo cabinet so I stuck the quick shake over the hole in the back for the wires and my sister banged on the front of the cabinet till the mouse ran out of the hole and into the cup rofl

NOT very effective!

And thanks smile I'm really enjoying myself so I don't think catching up will be an issue (not rushing ahead might be....)

I work on computers for a living.
All the systems have their advantages and disadvantages.

Apple
+ Generally stable
+ Generally high quality machines
+ Easy to use on a surface level
- Minimal customization of anything
- EVERYTHING about it is overpriced
- Monopoly in every way they can get you
- The hardware is designed to make upgrades difficult, if not impossible
- Not made for gaming

Windows
+ Easy hardware customization
+ Large hardware compatibility
+ Customizable software to the extent that most users care about
+ Largest software compatibility (gaming, design, office work, etc)
- OS is not very stable so will likely become corrupted with most big updates, resulting in needing to reinstall

Linux
+ ALL the customization
+ Free
/ Far more hardware compatibility than apple, but a little less than windows
- If you don't know what you are doing then be prepaired for a lot of research
- Seriously, you need to be familiar with terminal command use and coding/programming stuff if you want this properly working

I absolutely hate the apple company, they are butts about everything. send their customers to us who have only 3yr old computers because they 'can't help them' when it's just a simple RAM upgrade or failing HDD. Batteries that bloat and crack the trackpads/distort the case/can shoot acid if left long enough to explode.
BTW their company cert. exam asked safety questions. Their solution for a bloating battery hazard is to put the battery in a sandbox for a few hours. Like... it's still going to be bloating when you take it out? How does that fix anything?! xD
Ugh, building their computers with the data storage soldered onto the motherboard, which is an extremely likely component to fail, meaning data retrieval is going to be near impossible when it does. Building computers with NO HEAT DISTRIBTION /sobs. It's like they want their computers to break so you will buy a new one. Oh, wait... ._.

Windows is my preferred, but dang me if an OS reinstall fixes 50% of the PC machines we see here. It's much too common. Windows 7 was better at handling it's corruption (it will happen to any OS that has updates, no matter what platform you use). Windows 10 just borks out lol.
If you have a windows PC, just keep regular backups of your data (I mean you should be doing this with EVERY computer), and be ready to reinstall every 6-12 months.

So basically, to each their own. Though I generally think apple users are silly.
This is such a reasonable, logical analysis, I love it! (but maybe just because I am also a Windows user? XD) I should be better about OS reinstalls, though. I'm probably waaaaay overdue and I've been noticing my computer has been kinda shitting the bed recently. It's time. And easier/cheaper than buying a new one. XD

The only Apple device I've ever own is iPods, and I still do have a Nano I use frequently. While I love the device itself, you should hear me whenever I have to do ANYTHING with iTunes. XD I cuss up a storm.

Linux... I don't have too much experience because it's not worth for my purposes. However, I have assembled 8 desktops for samsung where they wanted Ubuntu. Took me a day and changing mobo brands to get it to even install onto the machine. For the life of me I could not get any wifi drivers to work on that thing. I spent an entire work day trying to get wifi working, used multiple adapters, followed the packaging directions, followed the OS's directions, followed the internet's directions. I gave up. Told samsung if they want to use Ubuntu, they need to figure it out on their own lol. My repair company doesn't support Linux because of how much time it takes per unit so they were lucky I even installed it for them haha.

So basically, to each their own. Though I generally think apple users are silly.


I tell people that Macs are good for designing games, and Windows are good for playing them.
I grew up on Mac machines because of a graphic designer mom. She got used machines from work for free so it was mostly all I knew! The only Windows machine I had was a '95, and holy s**t was everything on that screen pixellated. So I guess I'm hardwired to think of Windows as a chunky thing while Macs are super pretty. /shrug I knooow that it's not really that way anymore, their graphics have improved massively since then, but it's been carved into my mind.
