10/04 - Textured Thursday!

Just about the time computers were transitioning from 286 processors to 386. Holy crap! And Win 3.0!

And the fun thing is I have been an electrician since 2002 working on machines, so you'd think I'd be dealing with the latest in technology. Nope, most of the testers I worked with were DOS. Some still used floppies. Some of the manuals were dated 1988. One big ol' (scary) tester still had cassette tapes. Maybe even punch cards, lol.

Unless I gold out, I'll make goal off of Pins. Yay. Don't want to do anything else anyway.

my dad works (worked? we haven't spoke in ten years) but he dealt with the giant wall computers on aircraft carriers but could hardly operate our home PC and the internets..

I understand his pain. I'm not bad at computers, but when I get on this forum I realize that I am not quite keeping up with the times, either.

Yes, two entirely different things, computer-wise.

How? I have caught like 20. That makes no sense!

But I did just fail a gold so I may be out of the game. I KNEW I would jinx myself. This one had missing pins and it seems like I always get the gold message in a hit that has more than one missing pin.

just got one! I did soooo many of the 20c ones yesterday. I've been gone all day so hopefully I get more of these since I only made $1 this morning

Oh wait. Do you have other pandas running? If so that could be why. I've noticed with Pinterest if I want to work on just them I need to turn off all other pandas. Then I catch a lot more.

Sharing all the sekrets today! lol.

The pins today are brutal. Already missed the so called GOLD question.

[themildone]

I didn't catch any for a bit, just caught two. They show up in batches.

Well there ya go! Turn off all other pandas if you just want pins! I've caught 21 so far, so they are kinda worth it if it's a slow day otherwise.

Probably. I've already had to contact them once when my heater went out and she thought it'd be okay to leave me without even a space heater for 2 weeks in below freezing temps with a 1 year old. Buuuut I really hate rocking the boat because I have to live here for the foreseeable future

I know how that goes
<3 Good luck.

I think I'm going to become a cam model.
