Late Again

[rejectomorph]

Though the room is quite chilly, it's been too warm for poor Sluggo tonight. He's taken several sudden naps, and now he refuses to find the LJ client, so I must post from the web update page. What an annoying little bugger he is. I'm now getting blue screens with errors reported from something called VxD voltrack, which I am assuming (assuming, since I know that even if I looked it up at Microsoft's knowledge base, I wouldn't understand 98% of the information there) has something to do with the power supply. Sluggo's power supply, by the way, is a small, fan-free black box with the name KINPO on it, and a bunch of numbers an electrician would understand. It looks to have been made about 1950. Sluggo has time-travelled to get it, I'm sure, just so he can have one more thing with which to piss me off.

The sky is already turning a lovely cerulean, with a blush of pink above the mountains. The first crow of the day just cawed, and the bare branches, now etched black against the brightening sky, will soon be filled with other birds, singing brightly to keep me awake. I've yet again failed in my goal of getting to sleep before dawn. Thanks, Sluggo. Ah, well. Tomorrow Today is another day.

Sluggo has forgotten that he has a printer. He hasn't recognized its existence for over a year. He's always been partly senile. The ink has probably solidified in the cartridge by now.

I did look at Google for voltrack, but there were thousands of incomprehensible results. None of them said what voltrack actually (or virtually, I guess) is. Lots of people offered to sell me something with which to fix it, though. Google AdSense is making me such an offer right now on my Opera ad banner. Technology is amazing! Too bad it hasn't worked out.

the vxd file references are usually in system.ini or the registry.

modifying either is evil.

try disabling the printer driver in the "system" applet in Control Panel. if that doesn't work delete the printer (i'll have to look up how to do that in Win 9X)

Sluggo always acts as though he's been violated every time I go poking around in his private files. Actually, he probably is being violated, since I have no idea what I'm doing. Someday, I'm sure, I'll accidentally castrate him. Maybe I already have, and don't know it.
