RENDERING ON A 32 BIT COMPUTER AND OFFICE 365

I've had to reduce render size as it will literally take 14 hours if I don't, but I can actually do renders on this ancient PC I'm using. It's kind of amazing to me.

Then again if they ever stop support for the 32 bit apps on Windows I'm going to lose a lot of toys that I love to use.

The PC I'm using is from 2005 and only has 1GB or ram and a 320GB HDD. The processor is very slow and so is doing anything on the computer. That being said it runs a lot of my toys. I just had to use old versions of a couple of things.

Office 365 on the other hand will NOT work on a 32 bit system at all - I wish to GOD it did as I'm paying every month to have it and I use it a lot. I am using an old copy of a free to use word processor instead. Then I'm going to the online 365 and tossing the text in and formatting. There is limitations to the online version that make it not friendly to some of the formatting on the PC version though - so some things don't work - my envelope template for example don't work on the only version.

Everything else I can do on the online version of 365, but dang is it slow to work with. Also there is no working app for Onedrive on the older systems - so I have to use the browser and it hates their site. It's slow as hell and the folders literally don't show up, just the links under them.

Still it's worth it just for the 1TB of storage space I get on Onedrive. I wish I could pay a couple bucks more a month and get 2TB or 5TB of storage though. There is no option to ad more storage onto it after you get 365 - it maxes out at 1TB. I could be wrong though, but when I went looking to double it, there was no option for it.

In any event, I'll be glad to order a reconditioned PC in October even if it will take several weeks to get to me. I'm not sure if I will order on the Walmart site, or eBay yet. Amazon is a bust for reconditioned PC's it seems - at least the Canadian side of it is.

HOW TO FIX BLOGGER FROM DOUBLE SPACING LINES OF TEXT

Image
When you click on the editor to type text, it changes to "Paragraph" instead of "Normal". This causes there to be a double space between lines. If your trying to do a list, this is a serious piss off. So you have to click where it now says "Paragraph" and set it back to "Normal". I've had it a couple times not stay, and had to select all then set it to Normal again. As well it puts in a leading space (indentation of 1 space) you may want to delete as well, or your list won't look quite right at the top. It used to stay where you put it, but now it just up and changes it to Paragraph for literally no reason - even if you first set it to Normal - you click and POOF it changes.

Matilde Vicenzi Cookies Are Great

Image
Was sent these by a good friend for a birthday gift. They are really very good. Quite possibly the best cookies I've had in years. I tried them all, and I like the white one you see in the bottom picture, as it had a lemon taste to it. Some had a bit of liquid chocolate in them and where very good as well. Like normal, the ones with the bit of jam in them where a bit too sticky and chewie. But I seriously enjoyed all of them. These are great. I'm going to look them up on Amazon and if they are not too much money, I'm getting more for Christmas. OK just looked it up and NOPE, it's $28 a can. They are very good, but that is a bit out of my price range. But the usual Christmas Danish Butter Cookies are also kind of a lot of money now as well. They are also a bit moist, and not super dry like usual. Also not powdery like a lot of them do. I'd give these an 8/10 and would recommend highly.

YEAH THAT'S NOT A SCAM, I'LL EMAIL YOU RIGHT AWAY LOL

Image
 The anatomy of a scam. This is the exact format I've seen several times on other people's videos on YouTube (in the comments). See if you went to my channel the latest video would be at the top of the list and this was on an older one. There is literally an email link in my profile on YouTube and it was not used (even if it was I'd not fall for this crap). They use the words "your family" to make you react emotionally. You have thoughts like "Is someone hurt or in trouble"? This is almost always a way to try and get "money to your family member in need". Or it's a way to get information out of you. Sometimes it's a long lost relative you never freaking heard of leaving you money. There will always be a fee you need to pay for the legal matters to be cleared up and you to get the money. SCAM. It's interesting I've seen so many people reaching out on YouTube to people about "their family" this few months.

10 Questions Answered

1. How many times have you seen the time as exactly 8:18 am/pm in your life? Almost never. If I did I did not take note of it. 11:11 I always remember as well as 3:33. The middle of the night where all the horror movies have things happen is said to be 3:15am - you have no idea how many times I’ve woken up at 3:15am and looked at my phone. 2. What have you lived long enough to see? The list is rather long, but I’ll try to keep it short. Computers went from filling a room bigger than my apartment, to fitting in our pockets. When I worked in data entry, the entire building was using a 1GB drive that was the size of a stove. Now my 512GB micro SD card is smaller than a fingernail. Medical treatments like Stem Cells are not giving life back to people who would have died when I was younger. Medication I’m on did not exist 15 years ago, and it’s keeping me alive. All manner of medical wonders. Personal space travel. This was fiction when I was young, and now it’s happening. Then there is uns
