I guess I'm just wondering what you're actually working with, and why on earth are you using a DVD for Windows 10? Isn't it way easier to just use a USB drive? And, honestly, it’d probably be safer to grab a legit installation medium straight from the Microsoft website instead of using some sketchy, unofficial version.

Thanks 🙂

Managed to get that part sorted out. Thanks anyway.

Now it's just being a pain and won't let me install Win10 because I'm missing the right drivers...

So, I was trying to do a clean Windows reinstall, right? And in my infinite wisdom, I went ahead and wiped some partitions that definitely should've stayed untouched. Now, whenever I boot up, the PC just keeps making this constant beeping sound and the monitor stays completely dead. I even tried booting from a Linux USB, but... nothing. Just radio silence.
Any ideas what I messed up?

setting it up doesn't cost a dime, but I guess they charge you if you want to cancel 👍

well, figured it out—turns out my keyboard is just busted 🙂

My keyboard is basically acting possessed, though I doubt it’s just worn out because the On-Screen Keyboard starts doing its own thing too.
The On-Screen Keyboard works totally fine until I plug in my actual physical keyboard. Once that happens, everything goes haywire again until I reboot and unplug the real one.
I think maybe it's scrolling or zooming on its own even when I'm not touching anything at all.
Any advice?

ccaterpillar thanks so much 👍
I honestly didn't even think to hit up YouTube for some exercises to deal with this rotator cuff and bursitis mess 🙂

Bursitis usually happens because of those kinds of misalignments. Honestly, the only real way out is consistent physical therapy to gradually get everything back in its proper place.

Okay, but what kind of exercises are we talking about?
Like, can I use dumbbells or maybe some resistance bands to try and sort this out?

neonbison67 said:Who actually gave you that bursitis diagnosis?

Just some private orthopedic specialist I saw for an ultrasound.

Anyone?

So, back in October, I ended up with bursitis because my shoulders kept giving out on me during lifts. Now, this constant ache stretching from my lateral delts down to my triceps is making it a total pain to get through workouts or even just deal with normal daily life.
Does anyone have some advice on how I might tackle this on my own without having to go see a doctor?

Not yet, but I mean... maybe when the time is right, he'll be getting a one-way ticket to The Hague.

Just finishing up this piece on what’s going down in Turkey, the Kurds, Erdogan, and the whole mess in Syria regarding refugees.
It feels like Erdogan is basically engineering a massive exodus toward the European Union on purpose. And honestly? I think Merkel just played into his ego to keep things from spiraling even further out of control. She's basically playing firefighter—trying to contain the damage and accepting the inevitable for now, though she’ll probably play her trump card when the timing is right.
Long story short, Turkey isn't joining the EU anytime soon. Maybe once some countries start putting up actual walls at the borders, things might change. 😁

PS. Look, I know how this sounds and I don't want to be labeled xenophobic, but there's a certain level of suspicion surrounding these groups being called refugees. It’s just a matter of time before their true intentions come to light, I guess.
