Meet a lot of problems with my PC and especially with fucking Microsoft.

I do not have access to my files and will probably loose them all.

I hope to be back very soon...

Noooo one of the joysticks on my switch lite broke 😭

I bought this console secondhand, ain't no way im spending half of its worth getting it replaced.

But none of my controllers are compatible with switch. I'll probably just buy a cheap stand and connect one of them with a cable and play that way.

I was just getting back into Palia, too 🥲

I'm honestly surprised how well the game runs. Yeah, it lags a bit, and graphics are exactly what you would expect, but it's playable.

Can't wait to have my PC back. I wanna go achievement hunting again and also redo my home. I love the style I chose for the outside, but the house itself is horrendous. Im gonna change everything about it.

I can't believe I've been without my PC since March. I'm grateful to my brother's friend who said that he'll fix it for free. I've already replaced the parts, but there was a problem with Windows, and we found out later that the PSU needed replacing too, so he said he'll replace it too. The last update I've got on it was a week and a half ago saying that the PSU came, and it's been silence ever since. I really wanna ask how it's going, but my anxiety won't let me since I don't want to sound ungrateful 🥹

Where U At?

I’ve been a little quiet lately, so here’s the gentle “where I’ve been” update 🫠

Work has been… a lot. Like literally doing the job of two people a lot. And as a bonus, the building decided to become a disaster montage: part of the ceiling collapsed in one area so we had to evacuate, then a week later the sewage overflowed in another building (yes, really), and then once everything finally settled and I came back in (I worked over Christmas), the A/C in my office stopped working. Because of course it did.

On top of that, my PC’s PSU died, so I’m currently on laptop mode for around two weeks until it’s back, which means my usual TS4 workflow is a bit… limited. I’ve also had some general medical funsies going on in the background, so burnout has been doing a little tap dance on my nervous system.

I have been doing good things too though: I’ve started going back to PT sessions, I’ve been planning my Quebec trip (brain = itinerary), and I’ve been reading a lot. Comfort rewatches have also been happening (Heated Rivalry + Season 2 of Fallout).

Creatively I’m still here, just quieter. I’ve been writing more for myself lately, and I’ve been trying to make some CAS items but it’s taking ages (why does time move differently when you’re making CC?).

Also: I do have some pics to upload (mostly Inzoi + some Riker/Ryan ones), but it’ll be a bit limited until my PC is back. I’ll share what I can in the meantime, and then once I’m properly set up again… you know I’ll be back on my nonsense. 🫶

PC still not fixed 😢 My son thinks it could be my hard drive or ram. He still has a few tests he wants to run. Fingers crossed that I won't lose everything.

i don't know who needs this information but if you have an hp laptop or run windows 10, check if you have an app called OMEN Gaming Hub and delete it.

it's an OFFICIAL HP app and it acts like MALWARE, i'm being dead serious. it maxed out my RAM and CPU to 100% load and my entire pc was overheating because of it! when i opened task manage to figure out why my computer was tripping, the app was running a task called "HP.OMEN.OMENInstallMonitor" that had replicated tens and tens of times, and was running my pc to death.

sincerely, from a computer engineering major, delete the app! it has the ability to act like a virus without being brought to your attention because it's registered as safe by all of your malware scanners :)

ModTheSims - Intel Alder Lake Patch

Overview This tool is a very simple patch that attempts to workaround the crash on boot issues present on The Sims

@lazyduchess YOU ARE THE GOAT!!!! 😭

THANK YOU. ❤️

(For some infernal reason, Pets REFUSES to install, it's stuck on Preparing/Download Error even after I cleared the EA App cache a zillion times, but every other EP & SP installed & loaded in-game just fine, so I guess this is just more of EA's glitched out effery, because ofc. 🙄)

Welp, that stream didn't last long.

I've been running into this issue over the past few weeks with OBS, where it sometimes crashes when I try to start it up or do anything more complicated than managing sources.

Now it's escalated to causing encoding errors during streams and crashing.

Every time it crashes, I have to reset my PC entirely, because nothing I do will make it actually properly reset in the same session. I can't even use Task Manager to shut it down entirely because it takes Task Manager down with it. So maybe this is some kind of memory problem or something to do with my GPU, but it's driving me insane. I'm really tired of this PC causing me issues especially where the GPU is concerned and I don't know what it's gonna take, but I need it to stop fucking with me 😭 Half the leads I find I can't even pursue because it often requires either re-installing Adrenalin (which bricks my PC), or having to access my BIOS which for some reason just doesn't work on startup anymore (like no amount of mashing F2 or Delete prompts it to come up).

So I'm effectively stuck until I can call my PC guy tomorrow and see if he has any solutions. In the meantime I'm gonna try installing a fresh reboot of OBS, rebuilding all my sources, etc. because it could very well be something within the program itself causing these problems. I don't know. I basically have to just keep grasping at straws until something catches.

So. Yeah. Wish me luck y'all. Very sorry to everyone who has to deal with all this shit on the viewing end of things, I'm gonna try and have it fixed as fast as possible <3
