Well, my day just went from bad to worse. I was un-able to make a post last night 'cuz my BRAND NEW laptop had a technical issue, and a REALLY bizarre one at that. O_O When I took it to the tech experts, they told me there was a problem with the hard drive and it has NOTHING to do with the fact I didn't update my laptop. I can't believe it. My laptop is less than 7 months old and it ALREADY has a problem. My dad had to pay $280 just so they can fix it. Are you FREAKING KIDDING ME!? I took care of this laptop...
They said they'd call me once they've resolved the issue, but I am absolutely gutted that my laptop decided to have a technical issue...
We were supposed to have lunch together at an all-you-can-eat buffet today, but no...my laptop had to ruin EVERYTHING!!! >:( there was a VERY good reason WHY I didnt want to update it. The last time I did, my laptop did not want to go into sleep mode even when I put the lid down...and they told me that was the cause of an update...
Not only that, every couple of hours, it would tell me to update my laptop, and I just got sick and tired of it. And the stupid thing is, it would tell me EVEN if I already installed the latest update...
...but yeah, the technician told me it had nothing to do with that and he told me the issue was far more sinister. i dunno when I'll be getting it back, but I hope it's soon. (Like, Tuesday - Wednesday next week)
I don't like using the Mac downstairs. It takes 2 MINUTES to turn on, takes an additional 3 minutes to warm up and my parents are ALWAYS using it. Oh, and it lags quite a fair bit.
On the bright side, I DID manage to find a First Order Storm Trooper when I went to toy mate (which is the replacement for Toys R Us here in Australia). It was hidden in the back and there was only one left. I LITERALLY had to go to hell and back just to get this thing XD It was a cheap $3 figurine, but...it was totally worth it ^^
Now all I need to get is this Kylo Ren figurine and I'll be satisfied
I'm pretty ticked off about this...of all the times it could've happened, why today!? the last time I turned it on (last night at 6PM), there was nothing wrong with it. When I turned it on at 10PM, it gave me a bunch of technical jargon that I didnt understand (telling me I needed to contact the HP tech center) and I was unable to log in... O_O

And this is why you custom build rather than get pre-built
When I still used pre built years and years ago, I'd always have odd tech issues (especially on laptops)...ever since I swapped, never had an issue, and no one I know who uses custom builds has ever had weird tech issues from nowhere.
Out of curiosity, did they happen to say what the issue was, exactly?
