Pete's Log: i defeat a printer!

Entry #602, (Life in General)
(posted when I was 22 years old.)

So as all CS people know, printers are evil. But I actually managed to troubleshoot problems with the printer at home over the phone. So they'll be able to print again. I was worried for a while that they'd have to wait until I get home in a month, but I was victorious!

I think I've had at least four cans of mountain dew today. Not particularly healthy. Stupid numerical. But I'm almost done with the regular problems, So I should be able to do all the computer problems while I ta tonight. Assuming I don't get overwhelmed with questions. We'll see how that goes. So we were told at the beginning of the semester that numerical was definitely not a math class. A lie. Anything that claims to not be a math class shouldn't be assigning homework problems such as "if lambda is an eigenvalue of the nxn matrix A, show that lambda^2 is an eigenvalue of A^2".

Sailor Moon is becoming incomprehensible to me. They're starting to have more complicated plot lines than they used to, so since I don't watch nearly often enough, I haven't a clue what's going on. Not like that really matters, the show serves mainly as background noise whenever I do watch it.

It's Oma's birthday today. Need to give her a call.
