– The firmware on our Rohde & Schwarz oscilloscope, which I understand to be the most expensive piece of equipment in the lab, decided to conk out today.
+ When I saw the message "ComponentEnvironmentServer has stopped working" I got to deliver my "Well that's what you get for running Windows!" line.

+ A firmware update solved it…
– … Seemingly because it pulled in new versions of other dependencies, like the VC++ Runtime. So is the underlying issue fixed?
– Without knowing what caused the problem in the first place we can't know whether or not it'll happen again.

- I was made aware earlier of a sign near my area where it says "Operation Deadbolt." Locked all doors in the house as family is in town.
+/- Though I doubt anything will happen here.

– I hate my parents so much.
Quoting from my private Twitter (modified a bit, swearing edited out):
Code: Select all
I’m so sick of my mom and dad’s strictness!!! They don’t even allow me to say
mild swear words! I can’t do 50% of stuff that other kids can. They’re strict
as hell!!!
I don’t think they even deserve being called “parents”!! All they do is force
me in their strictness trap and impose their stupid useless so-called “rules”
on me.
They BOTH should mind their own businesses and stick their so-called “rules”
up their asses!!! I can do WHATEVER THE HELL I WANT and there’s NO LIMITING
ME IN WHAT I CAN AND CAN’T DO.

- Fifo, I grew up with a psychotic mother that taught me my multiplications with a charged revolver pointed at my head, I would've swop that for some rules to follow as a kid, just chill man.
- I would've liked to see the post with the swearing.

Nope. I’d just feel bad insulting my parents like that.
I do realize they’re doing their best to help me, but sometimes they’re just annoying.

+Just found out I might be taking care of my nephew for the next two months from mon-fri, 1pm-5pm. I mean considering the nonsense last time within the family, I wouldn't be surprised if this ends up falling flat again, but we'll have to see.
-Losing a lot of inspiration lately. Not good.
