TRAPPED IN LINUX AGAIN; SEND HELP
Clearly the 'ignore it and it will go away' school of computer repair will only get me so far - my possibly failing harddrive started working perfectly for the last month, and now I'm getting random freezes again, sending me scurrying back to my Ubuntu partition on my second drive, like some neckbeard's Fortress of Solitude.
Which I suppose isn't too bad, as I've been off work for two weeks on the Australian Dream (worker's compensation) with a bad back and basically all I was doing was reading books and fiddling with the City of Heroes trial, so I suppose this is an incentive to get back to doing something before I go back to work.
A note for
hyuugurt though: I've printed off your story and will give it what for when things stop exploding.
