Six Easy Days

Because, apparently, I have nothing better to do with my time (wait, uh...) I've been re-writing No Easy Day to be an Old Man's War/Starship Troopers book. This is an utterly absurd activity. I don't know if I'll finish it. There are so many more important things I should be doing.
Who doesn't love the -8003 error on Macs? It's just a helpful error code, isn't it? Anyway, I can't delete my trash, which means that my render failed to go onto an empty drive (because, you see, the trash isn't empty even if Finder shows no files on it). So I look up the issue.
Turns out that a company called Titanium Software makes freeware for OSX so that the operating system, you know, works. Because Apple couldn't be bothered apparently.
Considering that I was supposed to have this delivery made today this situation is... less than good.
And yes, if you're a PC person and you're reading this you'll say "Why don't you just get a PC so you can actually empty your trash?" Well, you'd be right, but then I'd run into some other problem and all the Mac people would be like "Why don't you get a Mac and then all your problems will be solved?"
Sheesh.
Ooh. And it looks like Onyx by Titanium Software may have actually emptied the trash on the Mac. Oh frabjous day.
What's 135.76GB? The 1920x1080 version of Angry Planet.
