APPLE MACINTOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I CAN'T FIND A MAC ISO FILE. There. I said it. This is the reason for a lot of my problems.  This file is crucial for a regular VirtualBox virtual machine, which is what I'm trying to make because I don't have a Mac. And I don't have money to buy a Mac.  Except that every possible not-as-sketchy option I have taken has failed. Qemu virtualization? Failed. Some random git repository? It's supposed to be run on Windows or Mac and I'm not putting that thing in my personal PC in case it's part virus though I scanned it multiple times with an antivirus. How about a virtual windows 8.1 PC? GUESS WHAT. I CAN'T PUT FILES IN IT LIKE THIS. (Also it's INCREDIBLY slow.) So yeah. Maybe I'll just find some money and somehow buy a Mac. (I'm a student so I don't have that kind of money bruh.)

The Windows 10 Dance

Hey guys! You read the title: I've recently gone through the Windows 10 update, to update my OS from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10. And from the title, you probably deduced that it didn't go as smoothly as planned.  First of all, it failed like 6 times. There. That's what was incredibly annoying. I kept changing things like disabling services and start-up services. Nothing.  I even went on safe mode or something and used the cmd. Still nothing. So, here's the thing: I followed this article on Microsoft forums and it worked. (I think the tool was trying to do something with the drivers?... idk.) Anyway, now it works, and I've got Windows 10 on my computer! (Now I can download Minecraft bedrock... Tehehe...) Also I made a virtual machine on my Linux computer for Windows 8.1 because I'm sentimental. Here 's the article if you're interested.

Random Ideas

Hey all, Since the last blog post I've published two YouTube videos, played with Arduino, and managed to fix that Python project mentioned before in the previous blog post (the problem was I was trying to fix the wrong line of code, oops.) Anyway, now I've got a Tkinter version of Tic Tac Toe on my computer that entirely relies on the user to check for cheating.  But enough of that. I'm still working on the Tic Tac Toe project, but now that I see the previous blog post, I see that I still have to get around to doing that possible chess project in unity. With my level of learning, it sounds impossible, however, but it will probably be a good experience.  Perhaps a Roblox game?

What Am I Gonna Do Now? How About Break My Brain.

Hey all. Now that I have finished my quest to get Parrot OS on a virtual box on my Linux computer, I need something else to work on. I tried making an old Arduino idea on TinkerCAD but it didn't work, and now I decided to shoot for a more easily attainable idea.  I have a whole list of project ideas, but none of them seem to be appealing to me. Perhaps I can try to make another Android app or could try to fix my failed Tkinter version of tic tac toe (I can't seem to get the reload function right.) Another option is to continue what I was doing in the past and try my hand at bash scripting, but I kinda fell out of that. The best thing I actually made was a program that switched drives on Git Bash on my windows laptop. Like I might have said earlier, this blog wasn't originally meant for ranting but that's all I seem to do nowadays. If you have any ideas, feel free to comment them down below!  EDIT: Does a chess game seem too extreme? Maybe not if I make it in Unity... ED
