    Let there be a jigsaw puzzle with packaging saying "1000 parts"
    Start sorting the parts in "middle" and "edge/frame"
    Put together frame. Easy, huh? Until you notice the shorter side has 28… but 28 is not a divisor of 1000. It must be 25*40 like all other 1000 piece jigsaw puzzles.
    You search where you made the mistake… but can't find it.

    What happened?

    In my opinion, they symbolize the archaic couple (Adam and Eve) in its original purity, fresh out of the womb of nature (God?), shameless and unashamed, without artificial necessity, still unconscious (infancy of humanity, still close to animality).

    "the archaic couple (Adam and Eve) in its original purity"
    Want me to even get started on that story?

    What do you mean? I only described the symbolic/metaphorical value, the psychological meaning of the couple, not as a historical fact, obviously fanciful (childish/ primitive thinking of mankind in the early days).

    You wanted a few nature pictures taken with the CD Mavica. Now I can provide some since I made a trip away from home to a maar lake. (Holzmaar – the smallest in Vulkaneifel)
    Nice scenery.

    Just a little question: Do you own a camera?
    No, not the phone.

    In my country, the case of a TV correspondent who received a quick grope on her butt on live TV caused a stir. The perpetrator was sentenced to one year and 6 months in prison for sexual assault. Don't you think this sentence is exaggerated? And in your country?

    Is this kind of aggressiveness supposed to be a basis for a factual discussion? Insults ("fuckers")?
    Do you have problems with deviating opinions? Or with listening/reading arguments contradicting your believes?

    I've had my fair share of abuse (non-sexual) myself. I almost died because of this. Putting a simple touch on the same level as rape and murder, that is what doesn't take victims seriously.

    nobody's doing that lol calm the fuck down

    my point is you only think rape and murder are worthy of punishment, while harassment is more than... just that (if you can even call those two that)

    i'm not interested in discussing anything with someone who would preferably throw my personal experiences into the trashcan because they think it's not that severe.

    be seeing you (I hope not)

    "my point is you only think rape and murder are worthy of punishment,"
    Allegation. Nobody said that.

    "who would preferably throw my personal experiences into the trashcan because they think it's not that severe."
    Allegation. Nobody said that.

    "be seeing you (I hope not)"
    Try being more friendly. Just a suggestion.

    Shit! After shopping at market, my scooter wouldn't start; carburetion issue. Usually it would start after several tries, now it wouldn't.:shit: I pushed it a mile with grocery bags on; halfway from my house was a mechanic. Thank goodness, I always keep in shape, but still I risked a stroke.:wacko: I reiterated to mechanic to check the carburetor, and not just charge battery/clean spark plug. :teach: To hell!!

    I have never joked or belittled your misadventures, on the contrary I encouraged and showed sympathy and solidarity. It's not a small thing to push a 150kg scooter + full bags, being over 40 years old, and weighing 55kg. In fact, I almost fainted despite being trained. 🤕
    Come on, arguments can happen; afterwards peace is made. 😉

    Mm.. I've always used ISO as a synonym for Disk Image. My bad.😅
    Nikokaro
    Nikokaro
    Come to think of it, I think I'm right. The various roms sites have psx isos, which are never in .iso format but commonly bin/cue or ccd/img/sub. The pupil corrected the teacher, it seems. 😋
    What is your opinion on this, @SylverReZ ?
    KleinesSinchen
    KleinesSinchen
    No matter what ROM sites say: Pretty well-defined https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_image – unsuitable for PS1 discs, which often contain more than one track

    Some warez people spread inaccuracies and misinformation. Now that you mention this: This wrong use of ISO might be responsible for the load of useless images uploaded and far from complete preservation (Re-dump quality) regarding PC games

    Sometimes (perhaps always) the words we don't want to hear (apparently hurt us) are the ones we should hear (actually heal us).

    Would someone be kind enough to explain to me the meaning of " :creep: "emoji? I'm uncertain about 3 interpretations: 1) Run away fearfully crawling so as not to be noticed; 2) Sneak up to strike by surprise; 3) Have the chills. 4) Neither of these. In other words: when to use it?

    "Creep" in this context means someone sleazy, skeevy, skeezy, slimy, shifty, or as kids these days would put it, sus af.
    The :creep: smiley is used for underlining suggestive double meaning, sexual innuendo, or similar.

    😡 So you think wasting or throwing away a complete desktop computer for (presumably) a defective PSU is a good idea? 😡

    I could have known, since the diodes didn't fully close in one direction before I started soldering (but I didn't really acknowledge the reading on the multimeter)

    This gave a HUGE blue spark, stench and huge burn marks. Thankfully on the metal top case, which I already put on again and not on my face. That would have hurt badly (though it might have improved my looks)

    Ahahah... It was obviously a joke condensed into an emoji. 😉
    It is obvious that he should not throw it away but possibly fix it.

    You need to start taking lessons in (not german) irony and comedy.🧐

    Shit, with that damn brick Mario almost hit me in the head! 🤕

    You might be able to find out why I don't use mountain bikes.
    Please think before opening.
    * No rack for shopping bags
    * Police doesn't like bikes without reflectors, head+rear lights, bell, reflective tires (and neither do I)
    * I really don't feel like getting dirt all over myself including the face (though the latter might improve my look)

    The soldering iron won't help here, sadly.
    I'll cycle to the workshop (don't have the parts anyway) and I couldn't for my life correctly adjust the derailleur gears stuff correctly (which needs to be done as well for some time now)

    Found that closed thread about noise on charging DS
    "Besides, what do you do with 6 DSs?"

    I've lost track of the number of (2|3)DS(i)(XL) consoles I have. Can't ever have enough. There should be one in each corner – never having to search.

    Pretty obvious answer for the question why things fail, yes.

    The more important part is: Why now? I'm busy with moving!
    As if dead things were possessed by an evil spirit always choosing the worst moment.

    Copying those CDs and writing a short unsystematic analysis was supposed to be a relaxation exercise, not the beginning of exhausting work.
    Nikokaro
    Nikokaro
    "always choosing the worst moment."
    Why? Will there ever be a better time? It's an illusion: the disappointment will always be the same, today or tomorrow. This is a lesson (of course, for me too): don't get attached to anything! Accept the inevitable! Be ready for anything!

    Disappointment? More like fury!

    D*mn! I just wanted to have some fun with this PC. It was often the source of entertainment the last 1½ years. More than gaming (since I could not even really play)

    The secondary HDD could be the failing one… Five minutes of work. Finger exercise.
    No, it has to be the primary HDD → Concentrated migration of the OS.

    Today:
    Go to the bank and withdraw the very last freely available savings
    Go to Telekom and hope they initiate moving internet connection
    Send physical letter to electric power supplier to terminate contract end of July

    You know what? I hate it. This life is becoming more of a nightmare every single day.
    Tomorrow: Continue physical work (painting)

    I hadn't actually thought of that direct consequence: then I was sure you wouldn't give up the Internet. So how about giving me your contact information to communicate epistolary, with good old pen and paper? 😉

    Different topic: Even in small things I have no good luck.
    My super cheap (year 2018) Windows 10 tablet computer (with keyboard dock) is literally breaking apart.
    That very used thing is end of life. As if there weren't enough problems already.

    Friday I'll pack all the remaining blank discs and optical drives into moving boxes. Another part of me leaving the house.
    Seems we will able to sell our kitchen furniture for a ridiculously low price (but don't have to trash them).
    The gaming collection will be the last part

    Soon I'll be sitting in empty rooms waiting for be discarded into prison.
    At least Lora is with me today.

    Forgive me. I'm at my limit. Each and every day full of exhausting work and nothing left of what I could enjoy.
    For months it has been like this. And it is getting worse. 24th of July is the big day. Hope I'll be still online then (if Telekom doesn't f… up) and I'm able to rebuilt the network.
    Things formally fun and enjoyable have become exhausting necessity.
    D*mn, Lora, don't disturb my writing!

    Is this a joke, or does it represent your current mood? If so, I am sorry about it. Have you still not moved away from your "sweet and loving" father and his nefarious influence?
    KleinesSinchen

    "Have you still not moved away…"
    End of July… told you.
    Do you think I'm living like Barney after he had been visited by the cat burglar and can just walk away (naked)?

    We have a lot of stuff. I despise minimalism. All my memories are connected with my stuff. A moving company said it would cost >5000€ to move our things, so I do what I can myself.

    Also a lot to do at the other house, which isn't empty either. Have to move remaining furniture upstairs. Recently 5m³ firewood had to be brought upwards over improvised ramps to a shed behind the house in the merciless heat.

    "Is this a joke, […]"
    Neither. It is the only thing, which remains… thinking of your stubborn insistence on decisions that make you life harder (phone instead of PC, mobile data only)
