Computer crashed.

Four hours later, manage to get it working, after a few failed startup recoveries, a few failed safe modes and normal boots, and a failed system restore. I still don't know what happened.

Firefox got off much better. Just removing all of my active cookies, which basically amounts to just LJ, Journalfen, Kotaku, and Joystiq.

Every single extension and theme in Chrome was wiped. Luckily, I can use Sync to get most of 'em back, and in some cases, such as Tampermonkey, Sync even remembered the settings. Or maybe they're stored locally, IDK.

Welp, time to buy dozens of DVDs and make backups.

PROTIP

Divide a salad into hot components, cold components, and neutral component.

If you want to reheat the salad, remove the hot components, and heat them separately. Heat neutral components to taste.

Bought to you courtesy of trying to eat microwaved lettuce a few years back.
