Did you know Rob Ford, the Canadian national treasure?
I think you mean national embarrassment. Probably the only mayor in the world to be invited to be on Jimmy Kimmel because he's a crackhead. He was a clown before all his problems were brought to light in the press and I never voted for him. He's dead now and his older brother who used to be a major hash dealer in Etobicoke is the premier of Ontario. The province outside Toronto has lost its damn mind.

Winners abound.


Marion Shepilov Barry

2nd and 4th Mayor of the District of Columbia
March 6, 1936 – November 23, 2014

His celebrity was transformed into international notoriety in January 1990, when he was videotaped during a sting operation smoking crack cocaine and was arrested by Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) officials on drug charges. The arrest and subsequent trial precluded Barry from seeking re-election, and he served six months in a federal prison. After his release, he was elected to the Council of the District of Columbia in 1992. He was elected again as mayor in 1994, serving from 1995 to 1999.

Dust is super bad because it hinders air flow and also acts as an insulator.

A heatsync clogged with dust is a recipe for hardware failure.
I break all my computers and gaming devices down every so often and blow the dust out of them. I know some say not to use a vacuum but I do on heat sinks sometimes.

I even go as far as replacing thermal paste on cpu and GPU on my computers every few years. I recently replaced the thermal paste with thermal pads.

That's a great way to reduce the odds of a hardware failure! :clap:
Cleaning all the little fan blades also helps them be more efficient.

got a bunch of tiny chores to do around the house; wash and dry clothes, water my sunflowers, etc.. was supposed to go to work today at the beef jerky job but didn't because they are pissing me off. i make is super easy for them and give them my availability but they fuck me over and schedule me the next day instead of next week like i told them to. ex coworker who i was talking to doesn't communicate with me either doesn't seem like they are taking it seriously so i aint gonna waste my time and energy on minimum waged job. lots of part time jobs out there for me and it's not like i NEED a part time i just wanted one so help build up money faster. once i check out this job tomorrow and figure out where we going from there then yea i can start looking for other jobs.

thats how this company is though when i first started it was the same thing i literally had to turn down a few job offers because she didn't keep in touch. other then that idk what im doing today. not really nervous about tomorrow because it's my 1st day i already know they are not going to expect much out of me. just nervous on when exactly do i get to leave. sometimes it's like 2-3 hour thing sometimes it's the whole shift, etc..

That reminds me. I still need to replace the keyboard on one of my laptops. I have the parts I've just been too lazy to do it. I've been dealing with keys that stick for awhile now.
The spacebar on my macbook has been dead for a while. I have to copy/paste spaces. The "Geniuses" at apple want to charge $449 to fix a five year old notebook which is crazy. I tried using a windows notebook but hit a hurdle that was a deal breaker. I have 15 years of photos and videos on two external drives. When I plugged them into the windows notebook it asks if I wanted to format them, like they were brand new drives. I've gotten used to hitting command+v when I want a space now and it hasn't slowed me down. I'm hoping Santa brings me a new macbook this xmas.

Well that sucks. I hate Apple. Their proprietary crap can go to.....

I paid $25 for a replacement keyboard for one of my ASUS ROG laptops with Windows. The laptop is solid. I abused the keyboard. Just got to get off my ass and replace it. Did I say I hate Apple? Don't own any of their overpriced consumer garbage. My Microsoft Surface blows the Ipad away. I7 and I can run regular apps on it. Try running Autocad, Maya, or any other application on an Ipad. Can't be done.
