"let's hold hands and pray Viddler lasts."

I've become very concerned about the limited amount of bandwidth on the Viddler accounts. OTOH, there's never been a problem before, even though you'd think there would have been. And the Viddler numbers don't make sense - they tell me an account is using a certain amount of storage space, so I delete old vids, and then they tell me I'm using more space. Maybe we've never blown the bandwidth before because Viddler isn't actually keeping track; it's just making up numbers.

I have absolutely no idea what's going to happen, is what I'm saying.

It's like a test of LD's patience.

Trying to figure out how to convert an mkv file into something viddable and I somehow managed to uninstall half the vidding programs on my computer.

And the deeply annoying thing is, I did this successfully once, I just can't remember how.

Has anyone else figured this out, for Windows, perchance?

(Why does anyone want the damn mkv file, anyway? If you can't vid with it, what use is it?)

Edit: Okay, I possibly got it working. Maybe.

Now I just have to reinstall all my programs ... tag all my ebook fanfic again .... sigh. At least I didn't lose all the fic itself; otherwise, I'd have run amok.

Here, have a baby orphan echidna.

It just died. It was just sitting there happily on the desk and one moment it was fine and the next moment it was dead. I ran around all morning trying to find a place that could repair it, but alas, it is gone.

I should have a replacement by tomorrow or Wednesday, but I have no idea how much data I may have lost. And right now, with no mobile email/internet, it's like I'm missing a limb.

Woe.

- but I guess we have 24 hours to download a free copy of a program that removes logos from video files?

ETA: The comments on the giveaway post express disappointment with the quality, so.

I have a Tumblr. Where I very, very occasionally reblog things that I don't post here. Usually because I want to comment on something that someone else reblogged and I haven't figured out any other way to do it. Which often pertains to X-Men or Teen Wolf.

Do with that knowledge what you will.

So I woke up and LJ had replaced the cut font with the scissor thing? And that's annoying enough, except that for some reason, I can only see the scissors on one computer - on my other computer, I just get a little box, like it can't process the scissor symbol.

Umm, does anyone know what I need to do, or update? I'm using Windows XP.

If I import content from LJ to Dreamwidth, it's smart enough not to duplicate entries, right? It'll only import nonduplicates, or at least, things that were not crossposted originally?

Most of the critical files have been transferred over. Now I just have to reinstall all my vidding software.

*cries*

It's always fun going back to the Adobe site and redownloading the copy of Premiere that I bought nearly six years ago. I'm so amused it's still available to me.

And once again, rather than replace the computer, I'm just replacing the drive. Mainly because I hate change.

At least this time the drive is limping along long enough for me to pull some key stuff off of it right now, and the rest should be recoverable.

... I have nothing interesting to say. I'm just enjoying the fact that I have Wi-Fi on a plane. Whee!

I shouldn't encounter the paywall, because I'm a home subscriber. But because the system doesn't work - which is a whole 'nother thing - it isn't acknowledging me and started blocking my viewing anyway.

Happily, when you get blocked, literally all you have to do is go up to the URL you were trying to access and delete out the numeric code that appears at the end of it, and refresh. Voila! Access granted.

What was the point of this?

For lack of any better ideas, I put Angry Birds on my phone. I'm not really a game person and I didn't know the first thing about how to play, but I kept hearing about it, so.

I can see why everyone says it's so addictive but I'm finding it very upsetting. Apparently, I just really don't like seeing animals get hurt. Even cartoon angry ones.

In other smartphone news, you can read how this person used a smartphone to beat a speeding ticket.

I have never appreciated the "download as epub" option on AO3 more.

*goes on a downloading frenzy*

I have never had a smart phone before. I am sure that one day, when I've figured out how to use it, I will love it immensely. Right now, it is a source of hair-tearing frustration and four calls to tech support this morning (who is equally baffled, incidentally, because it's a new model phone and they don't seem to understand it much better than I do).
