My Xbox One ran out of storage today. I'll have to get an external hard drive.

Re: First world problems
Those people should be thanking Charter for messing up their order of the boxing PPV. Since it was basically a disappointing fight not even close to being worth the amount of money that was being charged for the event.

Probably so.IMADreamer wrote:Old person problems?Freed Roger wrote:Had a first world problem and forgot it.
I remembered -
in Breckenridge CO and spending so much energy having fun in the outdoors that only a couple beers in the evening is enough. But there are so [expletive] many beers I should be drinking here. And sampling that other local natural delicacy, no time for that.
I need to move here.

Re: First world problems
I've worked for the same multinational corporation for almost 30 years. I never thought an international trip would happen.
I've been a Cards fan my whole life. I never thought a Cards/Cubs postseason series would happen.
And I certainly never thought they would happen at the same time. But they have, so I've either seen my last Cards game of the year or I'll be back to watch them in Game 3 of the NLCS. I think it's clearly unfair for these two huge events to happen simultaneously. Mrs Rad is pissed she can't go with me and tells me to STFU, quit whining and deal with it. I think she's right but I can't stop [expletive] about it. I also think she's ready to put me on the plane so she won't have to listen to me any more.

If you have MLB.tv, you are in luck. International subscribers can watch online. Even if you have an American account, if you are logging in from overseas, they'll let you watch. At least they did in 2012 when I was overseas.Radbird wrote:I've worked for the same multinational corporation for almost 30 years. I never thought an international trip would happen.

Re: First world problems
Have a seasonal worker nearby, who is loud/obnoxious and impossible to tune out. I found an app that makes white noise on my phone played thru a small speaker here. Man that helps. But now I can't listen stream music thru that speaker at same time.
Ordered a machine to make white noise (gentle Stream is my preference) and it can't get here soon enough.
Not sure what to do about the overwhelming (some sort of fragant lotion) smell that wafts my way from there.
I guess I should not be a [expletive] and just shut my office door every time person comes in - it will be so obvious the reason why -because it never has been shut before.
