Nov-08-25 Chessgames - Sports    WannaBe: Absolutely 'crazy' sequences... Usc throws an INT, the defensive lineman running with the ball then gets hit and fumbles the ball into and out of end zone for touchback (no TD) Next play, Usc goes from their own 20 to N'Western's 20 (60 yards).      Nov-06-25 WannaBe chessforum   WannaBe: English Is Confusing: "John Doe dropped out of the race for office." "Amazon Black Friday Sale have just dropped."      Nov-04-25 Chessgames - Politics    WannaBe: <keypusher> I personally would not waste my time here, Kangaroo Court.      Nov-04-25 United States Championship (1984)    WannaBe: It was a nice day and De Firmian-Kudrin decided to play 2... Okay, I'll shut-up and leave now. Let y'all smart(er) people figure it out. 😁♟️      Nov-04-25 keypusher chessforum    WannaBe: Another 'Just Curious Question', I am a fan of Michael Connelly books, them Harry Bosch and Lincoln Lawyer series. In the past, there's Scott Turow and I'm sure may others that focuses on law(er). I a curious on how realistic (aside from creative imaginations) you find ...      Nov-04-25 chessgames.com chessforum    WannaBe: Another not important thing that I noticed, as a premium member when I visit ChessGames.com Statistics Page page, I see ads. Not that a big deal. Sure CG.com have more important things to fix.

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 676 OF 749 ·  Later Kibitzing> Apr-22-20    chancho: <WannaBe> I did all that and still it refuses to update... I checked installed updates (last updates were on March 17) and when right clicking on the update, the word <uninstall> would show on some effing updates, but wouldn't show on others. This thing has not uploaded in over a month. Could be corrupt files or faulty drivers. I'm gonna drop kick this b.itch!! Apr-22-20    WannaBe: <chancho> Do this for me: Windows button, type in "system", click on the app. Second line, version, what does it say? Should be something like 10.0.XXXXXX And if you run the Windows Update, what error code is returned, something like 0xabcdefgh Personal Log: http://www.catalog.update.microsoft... Apr-22-20    chancho: 10.0.18363 build1863 Error 0x80073712 Apr-22-20    chancho: I tried to manually upload the update from the catalog but it would not install. Maybe I should do Harakiri... on the laptop. Apr-22-20    WannaBe: <chancho> For your version, it should be second one up from the bottom (in the catalog... Version 1909 x64, 361 Meg file. I am also going to look up that error code and see what I can find. Apr-22-20    chancho: I got this just when it all seemed promising. <The following updates were not installed Update for Windows (KB4550945)> Apr-22-20    WannaBe: <chancho> No error message? Apr-22-20    chancho: - 0x80073712 Apr-22-20    WannaBe: Hmmmm… Okay, same code. Gotcha. Apr-22-20    WannaBe: <chancho> Let's see if we can restore it to a previous good point. 1. Windows Button type in "Restore Point", open the "Create Restore Point" app. 2. You should see "System Properties" and "System Protection", underneath that, is "System Restore". Click that 3. Click "Next" when the new window opens 4. Find the "Show More Restore Points" and check that box 5. Find the one you are most comfortable with. Probably the one before the last successful Windows Update. And Click "Next" and follow the directions. Apr-22-20    chancho: The only restore point I have available is: <4.22.20 2:47 am> It will not go any further. Curses! Apr-22-20    WannaBe: I can use my Zoom account and schedule you for a meeting, probably will need to be after 5PM Pacific time and not today... Send me an email kstc_jyu (yahoo.com), if you want to do this, let me know if you want to do it after 5PM or sometime during the day on weekend. And I will email you the Zoom invite. Apr-22-20    WannaBe: <chancho> Try to uninstall one or more of the previous Windows Update, reboot and see if that will let you install new ones. Apr-22-20    chancho: Tried it, and it says an error occurred not all of the updates were successfully uninstalled. Apr-22-20    WannaBe: <chancho> fine, reboot and see if it can pick up new updates, and possibly install them. Else we can do the Zoom thing when/if you want. Apr-22-20    NakoSonorense: Pretty sure <WannaBe> could troubleshoot that issue in like 5 minutes via Zoom. Dude's like a magician! Apr-23-20    chancho: Just turned on ye olde laptop and upon checking for updates it says: you're up to date. 😃 Thanks for the suggestions! Apr-23-20    WannaBe: <chancho> Good gnus! Glad to hear it! Apr-23-20    chancho: User: than User: kkk User: sss User: bro Apr-26-20    technical draw: I finally got rid of the hideous I-phone and now have a cool flip phone. The I-phone had a million apps and all I wanted was just POTS. And to add to my luck I was paying $50 a month for the I-phone and now I pay nothing! My son gave me a phone on his family plan. I swear I was going to throw the I-phone against the wall every time it rang just to give me an update. Plus it weighed 30 pounds and was awkward to carry. Good riddance! Apr-26-20    WannaBe: Pots are now legal in many states, don't even need a fake doctor's note!! Maybe you can move to a state that is easier to obtain than using an I-phone. Apr-29-20    WannaBe: Starting to really hate Red Hat Linux. Ubuntu Linux is 1000x better than this crap... May-02-20    WannaBe: Really cool video, USAF and USN Thunderbirds and Blue Angels flying over NYC a couple of days ago. I hope <keypusher> got to see this live or if not, live coverage on TV. Vid is 17 minutes long. But I think it is worth every minute. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JE... (I love how BIG the kibitzin' box text font have gotten, I don't need that lasik surgery scheduled for next week...) May-04-20    WannaBe: Now, here, is a (true) conductor. He looks like Dr. Hannibal Lecter, and he directs Bee-Toe-Van's 6th, (Prom 2012). Without sheet music in front of him!!! (Vid is 42 min long) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aW-... My Pet Peeve, is Flash Mobs that performs popular classical music and brings in stands with sheet music on them. Ugh!!! May-05-20    WannaBe: Norm Peterson (from Cheers) plays the piano... Be amazed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nZ... Jump to page #   (enter # from 1 to 749) search thread:    < Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 676 OF 749 ·  Later Kibitzing>
