Today [5]

A lesson learned today.

When coming home from a meeting with my lawyer just now, a young, drunken woman travelling with two about 3 - 4 year old kids asked me on tram "Was guckst du? Gefällst dir?" ("What are you looking for? Like what you see?"). The wrong answer seems to be "I'm thinking two things: how ugly your tattoos are, and if I should call child services."

The yelling followed caused the driver to make a decision, we were both thrown out at next stop which apparently was no problem to her as it was this "lady's" stop anyway. I had to wait for the next tram to take me home, all the time waiting there this "lady" pointing at me and yelling to any passers by about how I hate kids (don't know where she got it).

I would have said, "I'm sorry, I didn't realize I was staring." No yelling and no waiting for the next tram.

The way she asked kind of provoked me to answer as I did. Can't explain it.

I know. I've gotten the same myself. I do speak up when some bully pushes into line in front of everyone else. Or similar circumstances.

Should of filmed it a short bit, then called the cops telling them some Meth Head was freaking out on the street, and you were afraid she might "do something!" to the 4 kinds she has in tow.

Got new 1TB drive today and after a lot of cleaning and backuping I got them out of red:

This is why I like to have a lot of free space on disks.
These are before and after tests of this new WD Blue, HDD. left is just formatted and right is after filed 50%.

This morning I started prepping for the Fall Update on my main system.

Already ran disk cleanup as admin,
then ran Ccleaner to get rid of 3rd party cruft,
ran chkdsk C: /f(only on my C drive) just to make sure the file system is tip-top(it is), and no soft bad sectors are present.

I have now pulled out my 3TB Seagate Expansion Drive,
and I'm currently making images of my 3 SSD drives(there is also an internal HDD, but that is only for Macrium images I create before installing/uninstalling software, or messing around with the system, like the registry, and testing "What would happen if I...." scenarios. And creating an image, of a folder of system images would be just plain dumb in my case, and would take the whole day to do, as Macrium would need to decompress, image, then recompress each and every image on the HDD. )
It will take a while anyhow, because, of course, I selected that it should verify the image after creation.

It's always good time for that.
I'm finishing of my secondary , Phenom II system. Added another HDD and couple of 120mm fans. Right now it's on main table in living room and have to find it better place. Have to reroute power and network cables. Have been putting it off because of such hot weather but today looks like it will be considerably cooler.
Also downloaded and installed new BIOS for main, Ryzen system but have to redo OC because it wouldn't recognize and implement OC profile on a USB I created with old BIOS.
