    It's kinda insane how much we depend on technology, we just need a power outage to be really primitive as soon as out batteries run out.

    Right now I'm practicing your language, spanish

    I really don't care about bootlegs (which can be re-downloaded in a few days), it's my own photos and videos what scare me... those can't be downloaded from anywhere, if they're lost, they're lost. I rescued all my pics (although I will have to name and order them again) and some videos. Enough for me, although I won't make the same mistakes again: I have bought yet another external drive and now, every piece of info that is written in my internal hard disk will be written also in the external one... They both can't fail at the same time (....... I hope ¬¬ ........).

    Estudias español? Qué bueno!
  2. My uncle's computer, he dropped it off to me to have a look at it because he could hear this horrible grinding noise inside (at this time, he wasn't so good with computers and that kinda stuff) and so I power it up. Sure enough, I hear the same grinding - like painful-sounding grinding. The kind you don't want to hear.

    I then heard a little bang and went 'Oh fuck'. Both hard drives went at once - they'd actually exploded inside the computer, never mind I had my hand in there just before making sure everything was attached correctly and nothing outta place. Why they did I'm still not sure but he lost everything - family photos, irreplaceable videos etc - so, NEVER rely on technology to work. Well - rather, it does work but it can fuck up just as quickly.

    So the moral of this, and Sergio's story is, back up twice. No matter how small it is, even an unfinished essay or remix you've spent two weeks on, you'll want to. I've seen all too often important and irreplaceable notes and photos gone in a small accident. That you don't want - and that you don't want to have to kick yourself for not backing up.
  4. Just remembered I had an intention to buy something more from Muse than The Resistance... Think it'll be H.A.A.R.P

    I've got all their albums but you know, I've never listened to one of them. I really should.


  6. The Resistance sure is an awesome listen

  7. I like the first song on it. Uprising or something like that - I've been getting into a lot of other stuff lately. More blues and folk than anything with a bit of metal.
  8. Most of Muse's work is better than The Resistance. I recommend you to get Origin Of Symmetry and Absolution; the latter is one of the best albums of the just finished decade, and the former is an amazing compilation of indie-weird-rockers that kick ass. Very hard.

    I know they're an amazing band but I just can't get into them. I'm going to try though...I have to.

    H.A.A.R.P is a bad choice?

    I have had the ability to read notes, forgot it though, some time I should try to relearn

    I play guitar, piano and sing. And I have a harmonica that I don't know how to play, but sometimes I do anyway.

    I tried notes once and never really understood them. I recorded a couple of songs last night but embarassed for anyone to hear them as I try to hit the higher notes (like operatic) and can't quite reach them as well as I'd like to. I gotta keep at it though.

    Yep, wanted to take up harmonica and saw one one day and thought I gotta try that. Still working out a few songs and maybe a few originals too.

    Cool! Maybe we could hear something one day?

    I could read notes back when I played flute when I was nine or something.
