Alright #HeavyMetal #Nerds, check this out: While going through boxes of CDs in the basement I came across this *still unopened* complete collection of #IronMaiden remastered reissues from 1998, the spines of which, when lined up properly, reveal a picture of Eddie. I have the Maiden albums I want on vinyl so I’m willing to part with this set to the right person for the right price. If you or someone you know are a super fan, I’d love for these to go to an appreciative home, and I’m not interested in gouging or haggling. Make the offer fair and the transaction easy (local preferred but not required), and I gotchu…
Boring opin I know, but the logos for Outlook and Word are too similar when they are pinned to the taskbar in the latest version. Very annoying.

Microsoft finally allows you to name your own home folder during Windows setup

It's only a small annoyance in the grand scheme of the utter idiocy that is modern Windows, but apparently it's one enough people complained about Microsoft is finally addressing it. In all of its wisdom, Microsoft doesn't allow you to set the name of your user's home folder durin

#FolktaleMoment

When in his fifteenth year the boy had been confirmed, the troll came for him. He was to marry the troll’s daughter, as his father had agreed, the troll said. The boy did not agree, however; he had given his word to Clara, their neighbour’s daughter, and she had given him hers. He would by no means break his own promise, he said, no matter what his father’s had been all those years ago.

Upon hearing this, the troll grew angry, and transformed the boy into a white bear. “Go out into the forest,” it shrieked. “Wander there until you decide to fulfil your father’s promise and marry my daughter.”

When Clara heard of what the troll had done to her sweetheart, she determined to go out to find him. Her father and mother tried to prevent her, but she had to go, she said, and go she would. So she packed as much food as she could carry in her knapsack and set off into the forest to find the boy.
