First, the silver thermal compound decided to go brittle on me and now I think the video card is dying. I turned the computer back on today after looking for jobs and now the colors are weird. Really eye-searing and I’m missing options in my display settings. Working on updating the display drivers right now, so crossing my fingers.
As soon as I can afford it, I think it’s time for a cheap, no-frills laptop. Just so I have other options than hauling my rig around.
We’re having our share of pity-parties. But that being said, I had quite a few excited managers when I mentioned I was a computer science major. Sadly, I don’t have a printer and the hotel only has a shared computer with so much spyware I’m amazed it can function. The fact that it can’t find the printer doesn’t surprise me.
So going to have to find another place to print out a resume and all the different applications I’d like to fill out.
