Ahh! That's better.

My motherboard and power supply are arrived, installed, and the PC now runs better than ever. My PC is slowly turning into a Ship of Theseus but that's okay. It's fun to upgrade parts.

This means I am freed up from using my mom's ancient computer which turns firing off a FB or LJ comment in 20 seconds into a ten minute ordeal. I can now do things in a timely fashion.

It's too bad my WoW subscription ran out and I can't really afford to renew it until next week :(

Teehee, I love how you drag Greek mythology into this! A new name for your computer? And yay for having you back properly :)

I just found out that there is a WoW 'comic' (although European comics can't be compared to American ones, I have no idea how to call them otherwise) which is being published here. If Alby sees it, I'm sure he'll want it :P

In Europe don't they follow the graphic novel/manga format? I thought they did but I could be wrong.

I actually got interested in the Ship of Theseus concept after reading a comedy/horror novel called John Dies At the End where it was used to brilliant comedic effect. I didn't actually learn the name "Ship of Theseus" until just a few days ago. It's a concept you can sort of drive yourself crazy thinking of! Might be a good name for the PC too, you're right.

No, we don't. The format/size is larger and the books are thinner. But the nicer versions have hardcovers and they're absolutely lovely. I had an Argentinian friend over in December and she actually bought a few copies, even though she doesn't speak Dutch at all, just because the editions were so lovely.

I had heard about it, but mostly forgot. It's indeed a mind boggling concept to think about. But yes, nice PC name :D
