Embarrassing

Bought myself one of these. It’s the small version of the big and unwieldy one I have with my desktop machine. It’s small and unwieldy (Huion tablets use an unfeasible number of ports). I haven’t been able to set it up yet because I’m having a Windows 11 update that’s been downloading for over an hour.

Just had a message saying installing the update could take an unusually long time(!). Yeah, maybe later.

I bought this from the Huion Ebay shop – it’s a refurb. Yes, sorry, I can’t make myself not be a cheapskate. I ordered it yesterday afternoon and it showed up at 1:00 today. Wow.

Took a picture of the box to show you, propped up in a chair. When I saw the image on computer, there was a terrifying amount of cat hair on the chair. Crop! Crop!

I had to look this unit up as I didn’t know what it is. An e-tablet for artists.

Very cool toy – excuse me- aid in producing professional graphic artis in the difital age- and it looks like a lot of fun – ahem very useful at the office!

I’m looking forward to seeing a post or three with images you’ve produced with it. If it can help you depict the inner demonic nature of such as Starmer, Pelosi, Turdeau, Macron, Lula, Maduro, etc. then I’m all for it. Heck, I’m all for it anyway!

p.s. edit: …and CHICKENS! No, not demonic chickens, but rather angelic chickens!

I’ll see (or not) your cat hair on the chair,
and raise you the dog hair all over my hoodie.

It’s good (not really) we don’t have cats, horses, or demonic chickens.

It sounds like you might have disk encryption enabled. If so, your update (and any future backups) will take anywhere from 5 to 12 hours.

Not sure what you mean, Warren. Disk encryption on the blog. If you think I back up my blog, you don’t know me very well 🙂

Beware: more than one link in a comment is apt to earn you a trip to the spam filter, where you will remain -- cold, frightened and alone -- until I remember to clean the trap. But, hey, without Akismet, we'd be up to our asses in...well, ass porn, mostly.
