I inserted my new SSD in the XBOX and powered it on, only to be greeted by a black screen. It was fine after restarting the XBOX, but I hate when shit like that happens.
Now I need to sell the old SSD on Ebay. I hate selling shit on Ebay. It's like I hit every branch on the anxiety tree while doing so.

Snow emergency tonight and tomorrow. I had kind of planned to go to Walmart tomorrow, but maybe I'll wait. I've got crap to pick up downtown, that's less problematic.

Computer shit and Ebay shopping. I'd like a 512 GB Gen4 SSD for my gaming PC, but they're a bit rich for my blood. I've got a bid in for $40 max on a 256 GB OEM drive. That should be sufficient for my gaming PC. Next year if I'm feeling a pinch on my system drive, I'll look at upgrading. I was just going to stick with my current batch of Gen3 drives, but those are barely hitting 1500 Mbs in actual use.

Paul Thomas Anderson is probably my favourite living, post-New Hollywood, director. He's been nominated for an Oscar for every film he's done since Boogie Nights (except for Punch Drunk Love). but he's never won. At least until tonight. Tonight, he won THREE.
Comparing the Universal Oneness of All Life to Yo Mama since 2010.
