This is just a post to let you all know that my laptop is busted :( For the last two weeks I've been using my mum's, which is pretty slow, and it doesn't have even nearly all my music on it (although I've been gradually increasing the amount it does have over the past couple of weeks!), and I today discovered that the version of Fedora it's running is four versions behind the current one, which is just a joke.
Oh yeah, this also means NO SIMS. Sadness.
I have a backup of my Sims neighbourhood (in which both the Spritas and the Antikvas live) safely on Dropbox though, so I should be able to start playing them again relatively drama-free, once we replace the hard drive and get Windows running on it again etc.. (Oh yeah, just so's we're clear, the hard drive is the specific part of my laptop that is busted. Of course.) Worst-case scenario -- if the backup we made of the entire hard drive has gone wrong -- is that I lose all my custom content and all my Sims look really funny when I first load up my game again :P
ok I lied, actually the worst-case scenario is that that back-up has gone so bad that I don't even have Windows any more, so I can never play Sims again (unless I fork out the megabucks to buy Windows again, since I was too lazy to make a system recovery CD back when I had the actual ability to. Lesson learned... make system recovery CDs when you have the ability to. Dammit.). But I'm sure that's terribly unlikely! :D
This post is getting quite rambly now, haha! Anyway, I'm just leaving it here so if you ever find yourself thinking, "Geez, I wonder whatever happened to those wacky Antikvas," (ha ha wow I do flatter myself assuming anyone will be thinking this) there is an answer available! Hopefully they'll be back soon.
