All the rambling and fixing I do these days is with countless Excel tables - the beginning of December is, traditionally, the time we submit soem boring statistics. And by "we", I mean I do all the work cause everyone else is too intimidated by the mere sight of these tables :P

I love this time of the year - we are steadily running out of stuff to do, which means more time to goof off. This is in stark contrast with the situation in 2014, which, as already mentioned, was a dark year. December felt pretty oppressive back then. And the coming of January was dreaded.

I do plan to make some upgrades - you might remember that I'll have to replace oen of the hard drives due to the chance of a breakdown at some point (it already had a minor breakdown in January this year). I'll mostly focus on the video card, and maybe the CPU. The benefit of playing mostly old stuff is that you can afford not to care about what you have - the older games will always work perfectly at top setting anyway.

In term of peripherals, I only have a problem with the mouse when it gets colder - it starts doing that thing where a single click registers as two. My research has shown that it's a mechanical issue. Thankfully, it only happens in cold conditions.

Something to think about when you have doubts about your work on the Wikia - you are doing something that lasts. Most internet users only create stuff like posts on social networks (quickly buried under other stuff in a matter of hours) or post comments under articles (which some people totally ignore and even hide through plug-ins). As some guy put it in an article - "if your contribution to the internet is something that can instantly be erased by a simple browser plug-in, you might as well be invisible." But this isn't the case here - this Wiki is something significant, something that will survive even beyond our time (hopefully). And through this, you have already set yourself apart from the faceless mass of people online. They can't even dream of catching up ;)
