Most people probably wouldn’t call it an adventure, exactly, but fooling around with computer operating systems, and even building
computers, takes a certain … well … daring do. For example, I just
replaced Windows 7 with Linux Mint 15, which seems to lack a software
driver for my sound card. But for the fan noise, my computer is mute. I
must say, though, everything else works better than ever.
In a way, that relative silence is a blessing, as Netflix isn’t nearly as appealing without audio. Who knows, I may have to read or something.
Speaking
of reading, God’s Word has been blessing me hugely of late. I
discovered while volunteering at the Health Center that while listening
to the spoken Word while reading it opens up new vistas of
comprehension, the audio portion tends to rush me through passages that I
would otherwise study in detail. So deeper, more detailed Bible study
is another adventure, and an unwitting side benefit of my computer
experimentation.
All this leads me to the inevitable question: Will I ever learn not to try fixing “it” if it ain’t broke?
I doubt it.
