1:20 AM Just spoke with Angela about what happened on 25. She can't remember a thing.

3:18 Government shutdowns do not save but cost money.

3:45 Earlier i went outside to deal with the poops. They (changed their mind?) started to dig more at the walking path accross the alley, making it 2 meters deeper. Much more noise because of that (it never stopps since March when they started the park and June since they started the siding). When i came back the signs at the door were moved. Then i fried some chicken. Now my Walmart San soda tastes like ammonia. Going to WinCo to get more soda pops to see if there's a difference.

1:00 PM Price got under 150. Still a good excelent option for a low budget web browsing word processing and even gaming computer.

When it came it got inside the box a cable for the displayport comm standard so i just hoocked it thinking it was going to be better than HDMI.

However. All text in Windows got so small i can't read it. I have to get real close to the screen when i hit a right click menu in Chrome to see where copy and paste is. I tried all the options and this is how i discovered the newest Windows makeup.

Don't know, i used Linux for such a longtime, didn't have time to install it and since this computer is so fast i did not bother. But at least on 11 they put some sort of interface on top of the old Windows to make it look.

But if you go deeper in a menu you start to see the old dialog boxes that BTW do not obey the text size setting, like choosing more options here. BTW i could not find a better way to add a whole folder to Windows Media Player (in Windows all utilities start with the name Windows except for Word which is called Microsoft Word).

See for yourself.

Every once in a while i see a menu with tiny letters and square corners of the old dreaded Control Panel. Some things never change.
