Scream---breathe---ummmmmm----scream

After the flood my family bought me this computer which even though its an ACER ??? has served me ell enough. It has survived a major Trojan attack figured out and saved by my daughter.

Now Firefox and Norton refuse to work. Till late in the afternoon I had no internet at all. At least Chrome and that awful E are working. I am not patient by nature, not when it comes to the internet.

After all the problems with LJ I do not need this. My daughter spent most of the day working on it. She got my internet back but FireFox has my passwords automatically stored (not my bank or shopping, but everything else.

I need a drink and I don't mean a coke I mean a DRINK and I don't drink anymore but wine here and there. The only alcohol in the house is my husbands scotch and even if i is single blend Blahhhck.

I am hoping the things I post actually post, Good luck for me. SCREAMMMM......OKAY breathe...ohmmmmmmmmmmmmm...no SCREAM.

Signal Boost: Return of the DDoS

For those wanting to know more about the recent DDoS attacks, yes, it looks like it was the Russian government trying to shut down the dissidents again.

As I said last time, while it's frustrating not to have access, LJ is a lot more than a social network platform. From the article:

"LiveJournal isn’t just a social network. It’s also a platform for organizing civic action. Dozens of network projects and groups mobilize people to solve specific problems — from defending the rights of political prisoners to saving endangered historic architecture in Moscow."

So while I know many are considering the move over to Dreamwidth and other such sites, supporting LJ is a way we can help support those who use it for more than a writing/roleplaying/social venue.


Also, as a FYI, LJ is giving paid users effected by the outage two weeks of paid time as compensation.
