Re: What do you think..

Find another vet.
This one doesn't seem to like animals.
If she was worried about germs, she shouldn't have had the baby in the same area where pets have access, and there was no need to be nasty about asking you to remove the dog.

Re: Draclvr in Hospital!

I'm relieved to hear from you Draclvr, and that you're feeling OK now.
Are you home from the hospital or are they going to keep you there until you see the specialist?

There's a thread about the .oracle_ire_usage thing in the Oracle forum. https://community.oracle.com/thread/3783686?start=0 You should be able to uninstall Java (if you're not using it for a game or something), and hopefully that will get rid of the .oracle_ire_usage thing.

Re: Razer Death Adder Problems!

Is this the Razer Chroma mouse you mention buying in the "Razer scroll button not working" thread from March this year?
If this is the new one, it didn't last very long at all.

Re: Razer Death Adder Problems!

It might be a physical problem with the mouse. According to some reviews at Amazon , these Razer mice don't last -- internal parts are cheap and will crack. If you want to take it apart and check for broken bits, there are videos on YouTube showing how https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=ra...

Windows 10 usually downloads updates without asking your permission, unless you configure it not to. If you know the KB...
