Friday Random Stuff…

December 8, 2017, 14:59(EST) By Eric (a.k.a. TweakHound)

Here in Central Virginia we are getting our first snow!

Protection Patch
Windows Defender has been patched. The issue is critical. You should be patched automagically at some point. You can hurry things along by checking Windows Update.
You need to be on: Microsoft Malware Protection Engine version 1.1.14405.2 or higher.
To check your Windows Defender you can open it by searching “defender” or by pressing the Windows + R keys and copy/paste: C:\Program Files\Windows Defender\msascui.exe

Software Updates
Audacity 2.2.1
Nvdia Geforce 388.59 WHQL Game Ready Driver – “Provides the optimal gaming experience for Fallout 4 VR”

Amazon Key Sucks
Amazon Key is a program that gives access to your house to the delivery guy and who knows who else. This dude had a host of problems. First off I ain’t doing a smart lock unless it is biometric. Secondly, anyone that gives a key to their house to a stranger is an idiot.

Higgins Passed Away?
I didn’t know actor John Hillerman passed away. He was famous for sicking “The Lads” on Thomas Magnum. RIP Higgy Baby.

It’s The Weekend!

    I flew from Pittsburgh to Seattle to see Def Leppard at the end of their Hysteria tour. Phenomenal. Absolutely phenomenal!

      One of my favorite bands. I’ve seen them many times My teenage years are a little foggy but I think the first time I saw them was 1983. Wouldn’t swear to it though. I’ve seen then in:
      Clarkston, Michigan
      Charlottesville, Virginia
      Hampton, Virginia
      Las Vegas, Nevada (see Viva! Hysteria)
      Mannheim, West Germany
      Nashville, Tennessee
      Raliegh, North Carolina
      Richmond, Virginia 2X (maybe 3)
      Virginia Beach, Virginia 2X

      Not sure if I am going to keep going to see them. Their shows are getting stale.
