Oh computer…
An extra post for today, based completely on my main PC taking a dive into the depths of hades. This is my take (read butcher job) on O Captain! my Captain, by…whoever wrote it originally.
O computer! my computer! our fearful trip is done,
The case has weather’d every download, the prize we sought is won,
The RIA is near, the sirens I hear, the people all downloading,
While follow links the steady torrent, the client grim and daring;
But O surge! surge! surge!
O the broken drops of components,
Where on the floor the Computer lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
O Computer! my Computer! rise up and hear the bells;
Rise up — for you the card is f*cked — for you the PSU shrills,
For you the hammer and ribbon’d wreaths — for you the bin a-beckons,
For you he calls, the pissed off Dave, his angry face spitting,
Here Computer! dear psu!
The death beneath your case!
It is some dream that on the floor,
You’ve fallen cold and dead.
My Computer does not answer, its leds are off and still,
My psu does not feel the charge, it has no pulse nor will,
The case is anchor’d safe and sound, its voyage closed and done,
From fearful trip the victor power comes in with object won;
Exult O shores, and ring O bells!
But I with mournful tread,
Walk the deck my Computer lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
I know, pretty crap, but it is all I can muster given the trauma of my PC melting down when I turned it on this morning. Monitor 2 - Dead, Graphics Card - Dead, Motherboard/CPU - Dead, PSU - Dead.
Simply put - Technology FAIL
Damnit
