The new hard drive arrived yesterday; she's back up and running. I'm writing this on the eMachines Box once more. Got her on XP Media Center Edition SP3, like she should've been running all this time, and now it's just repeatedly installing updates from Legacy Update over and over (the POSReady stuff is key for getting TLS 1.2 and thus Escargot fully functional), getting my programs and games back on here, and slowly getting everything situated again. Media Center Edition got a custom version Read more
So I would've had the eMachines Box back up and going by now, but unfortunately, my stupid ass bought a SATA drive! It had an IDE one in there.

I'm gonna be honest, I'm going through it a bit right now, hence the lack of journal posts.

Today marks one year of the journal, and thus, one year of cammy.somnol! I intentionally brought the site back up absolutely bare bones, with nothing except this journal, to see how it would grow on its own. It's been slow, but super rewarding. There's still a bunch of pages ready to go over on the home server beta site that just need a Setter in the header.
