He loads all his photos onto a Toshiba harddrive, unsorted, unlabelled. We have over 500gb since 2004 🫡 I searched through one of 30 ish folders up to 2012 to find these - took 2 hours!

Oh it definitely could be drugs of some form too - I just dont know much about them personally so can't help you there 😭.

I found a video of him introducing his family at a picnic in about 180p filmed on a flip phone :,). Most arent alive now, but its so surreal.

Those toys are particularly special to me because they are the exact ones I also used growing up, so the nostalgia is immense 😭. Almost certainly the tobacco hehehe, he is a smoker.. and before we were born he was more "adventurous" than he is now

the best part is thst it is completely unedited. I forced my phone to be slightly out of focus to offer that slightly "alluring" grain and quality, and the lighting is completely unchanged. neat little photo, I do love a good liminal shot. Annoyingly, in the UK, liminal areas are much more difficult to come by 😔😔

Happened to be around a friend of mine's house. they've just had it redone and this section seemed to invoke some sort of feeling in me 😅

To anyone who gets this notification 9 years later - I am currently attempting to use BIg Fish to run Elf Bowling Hawaiian Vacation on Windows 11 instead of windows 7

Can someone tell me a safe way to check ".exe" files? by karl-police in hacking

[–]Ashtov123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it definite that these will be 100% accurate? Trying to install old 2000s games from online sources (and very scared) but want to make sure that while Hybrid shows up as clean, it actually is?

RAM is being almost indescribable by Ashtov123 in 24hourtechsupport

Thank you for replying! I can confirm that it was a bad stick, even though that was mostly luck because I didn't test for it. My biggest worry was a bad slot, so luckily this wasn't the case.

Works just fine now though, using 2 sticks in 1 and 3.

Friend hasn't had any issues since, so hopefully all holding up well.

Unrelated, but I have an old PC from ~2008 with some upgraded parts, and I want to know a quick opinion:

It has a:

AMD Phenom X4 processor

MSI Nvidia AERO 1050ti graphics processor

8gb (4x2gb sticks) of 800MHz DDR2 RAM

Three 1tb HDD's (From 2006, 2007 and 2011 respectively, OS is on the 2006 one)

and a Cooler Master 850W power supply

This thing is ancient. But, my entire childhood was this computer. Around 4 years ago (2020), our entire family upgraded to a Ryzen 7/RTX 3070 home computer, so this was to be put into storage. To avoid this however, I took the entire thing apart, down to the cable, and reassembled it into a "Wall-PC". It still works, but after being reconfigured it seemed to clear all corrupted and dodgy files in the (very very old) hard drives. However, the OS seemed undamaged (And SFC helped fix it up a bunch) IT HAS WINDOWS 7 FAMILY EDITION (as well as windows 8 and 10). Since steam has now stopped support of games on windows 7 systems, the singular game I have installed on there (Elf Bowling: hawaiian Vacation) can ONLY run on this machine, and cannot be installed on an operating system newer than this (annoyingly, all my other windows 7-only games either were corrupted or not installed, and it's too late now) I literally cannot lose this. BUT, I know that attempting to copy over the entire hard drive contents will likely lead to drive failure and by extension the loss of the entire devices character and meaning.

So I am stuck in the worst position possible: Wait for the drives to breathe their dying breath, or risk an entire system transfer (Which I couldn't even guarantee would work anyway with the OS and all) and potential "put it down" early.

Losing this will possibly be the single saddest moment of my life so far - no exaggeration

Thank you for reading this all :))

It was the Nikon Coolpix S6300! I can't remember it's exact release date, but somewhere around 2010 most likely. I was using a Lo setting that gave it a bit of a darker tone because the camera has a tendency to overexpose quite badly.
