Did anyone else ever get to watch the delightful Sherlock Hound animé growing up? I don't even know how such a random show/movie ended up in my local video store when I was younger, but I definitely rented it on more than one occasion. I think that it is easily one of my biggest mental pictures when I think of tone and visuals. Dubbed, of course, but I absolutely love that Sherlock. Of course, being an animé, Moriarty is a bit of a joke villain, but still, such great memories.
Also, why did no one ever inform me of the music genre of Electro Swing?! It is amazing! So much fun. I accidentally discovered it last week when looking for Tally Hall's Banana Man on youtube, because it's awesome, and stumbled across Caravan Palace's song Lone Digger and was absolutely sold. I can't tell you how many hours straight I listened to the Electro Swing Collection albums they had on youtube... So good.
Lastly, I'm caving again and trying Win 10 again. I did so love it, except how my video card kept constantly crashing every few minutes when I tried to game. I'm hoping enough time has passed that such issues have been addressed. It has terrible privacy issues, but darnit, I liked it. Honestly, I would have switched back to Linux years agao, and tried, but this laptop has super fun issues that don't make for the transition. Mainly, for whatever stupid reason Toshiba thought it'd be a great idea to make the mouse buttons part of the track pad. Windows seems to know to ignore any touch input on said buttons, but Linux treats, fairly I might add, the buttons as also part of the touch pad. It's fairly difficult, if not outright impossible, to use a mousepad when every time you try to click something, the movement of your fingers on the button also moves the mouse.
In addition, this laptop has some sort of hard-coded windows license in here, which means that while, I never have to input any codes when I install windows on this thing, it somehow makes it impossible to dual boot linux, and even just straight installing linux was a nightmare. Stupid UEFI issues.
