Come back later, and I can't find the draft.

Theres a point for that in the user control panel
"Manage drafts"
In case you didnt see it

So there is!
Guess what I found there.

If you guessed "not my draft," then you'd be absolutely correct. As I'd expected, the draft was apparently never saved.
Just because it was a PEBCAK doesn't mean I can't rage about it!

Gonna save these for later.

So I uninstalled Space Engineers a while back because I never played it and it was taking up obscene amounts of disk space. I went into the Steam folder today to see what games were taking up the most space- and lo and behold, Space Engineers still has multiple GB of files in its folder! I wouldn't even be that mad if I could actually get rid of it, but Steam has made the entire steamapps folder read-only, and nothing I do changes that- I uncheck the read-only box, and it takes 5 mins to apply the change to everything, and I check back in the properties- and read only is checked again! When I try to delete anything, it first asks for admin permission, which I grant, and then says that I need permission from the user account I'm using to delete the files! At this point I want to punch both the Steam programmers and the Win10 ones!

*pulls hair out*

EDIT: typo

Split lengthy discussion to this topic.

The five-year-old system on my laptop is starting to give up, but I'm not ready to reinstall just yet! The problem is pretty annoying; no installers seem to be able to complete for some reason. I'm guessing it's VSS, but that's so far above my pay grade...

:v

I spent three days working on a video. The video editor decided to corrupt the project only a couple hours before I'd have finished. It autosaves on every change, and the save is internal to the program or something, because the forums state it's impossible to make backups.

Time for a new editor. Screw you Lightworks!

So I found one called Openshot. It's open source and works on Windows, Linux, and Mac.

Turns out that not only is it prone to crashing, it can't actually play the video previews/timeline smoothly at all, and this is a known issue since 2016 at least. And something that's bugging the heck out of me is that it seems to be completely unable to word wrap its text.

Does anyone know of any other programs I might try? This is getting ridiculous.

Feeling a little stressed.

I mean, I'm always stressed.

But now I'm feeling more stressed than usual.

To spell this word.
