Hey guys. I am SO SORRY for being MIA. My computer completely shorted out and fried earlier this week and I've been waiting to see if the repair guys could salvage anything off it so I would know what's realistic for me to update you guys with schedule-wise.

They saved some stuff, and most importantly I don't think any reaction footage was lost (I do back this up right away after recording thank goodness)! But I did lose several half finished edits that were coming to Patreon that I'll need to re-do and a few spreadsheets that I was using to keep track of the order of eps, dates for YouTube posts, Early Access posts, etc. But really could've been worse!

Aaaand the silver lining is I have a spiffy new computer now and hopefully rendering things will take a lot less time🤞

As for this week, today I've been getting this new comp up and running, re-installing all my programs, re-doing my lists and calendars, and figuring out all the settings again I was using for recording and editing. As well I lost the finalized YouTube edit that's supposed to post on Monday (shorted out as I was rendering it) so I need to re-do that.

I am very much hoping tomorrow to get this week's Trek posted and then hopefully Sunday Batman 66. The remaining stuff to come next week.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for bearing with me as I get myself back up and running!! I really appreciate your patience and I'm looking forward to being back on schedule with a faster computer ♡♡♡

YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!! ♡♡♡♡

what are the stats on the new machine?

Andy Thomas

Ahhhh that’s horrible! But at least you have better tools to work with now. Wishing you a better week

Thomas Yanez

I hate losing a computer, but I love setting up a new one. Fresh and shiny.

Brando83

Something similar happened to me a year and a half ago. Hope the recovery process goes well!

Barry Hammock

Ouch .. sorry to hear that. But, spiffy new!

Stephen W. Evans

Whew, that's a mess! Hang in there and just get things done as you can. Hope the new compy is a banger!

Jason Scade

Glad you didn't lose too much data / work. I've had a bunch of hard-drives die on me over the years, it can really suck when they go without notice. Awesome re new PC. :D

Thegonagle

I was looking forward to Trek today, but it’s okay. I noticed you hadn’t posted in a few days, so I’m glad to know it was your computer that got sick and you’re OK. EDIT: I was thinking it was Saturday yesterday (I mix up days of the week sometimes, sorry), so looking forward to full-length Trek on a Friday is my own problem. Saturday is Jen's usual release day for Trek episodes. I hope she gets it out tonight, but understandable and absolutely forgivable if not. Being without your work tools for any length of time puts anyone behind schedule.

I'm Hope you could do all the great work you been doing until now, and sure better. Live long and prospere. Hugs from Argentina 🖖🏽

stop working your computer so hard Jen! You might want to add a 4 or 5 inch fan to circulate the air around the computer...it helps keep the computer cooler than just using the internal fan

ioma

You should buy a UPS System to protect your computer and other electronics in case of power surges.

I always feel bad when reactors apologize for stuff like this. It‘s really okay. It‘s life. No apologies necessary. Don’t stress.

Chrissonator

Ah, computers, great when they work, but devastating when they stop working... 🫡

Jon Hoover

WHAT??? Well, we need to speak to a manager!

john reed

I know how u feel jen when your PC dies its pain I. the arse to get all back on track . I feel for you mate

Clayton Johnson

You need to talk to Odo and find out if someone like Quark sabotaged your computer. Quark is a lot friendlier if you bribe him with some Gold pressed Latinum.

It's friggin sick! Well for me anyway and compared to my old one (which was a real work horse to be fair). 1TB i9 64GB RAM RTX 4070

fallingupdownthere

That stinks, Jen! Time to invest in a NAS. I shoot a lot of video as well and invested in a setup last year and I now have zero issue if any computer crashes. Could be back up and running in mere minutes.

thats great i dont do any video rendering but i always hear the 90 series is life changing. you also might want to look into a network attatched storage device configured for raid(redundant array of independant disks) to keep data redundancy high and increase access speed.

BJ Stephens

Sorry to hear about your troubles. Hope things will be looking up for you soon. Will be looking forward to new reactions whenever they drop, no hurry.

Gary Poussard

Im sure everyone is more than happy to wait hope you havent been stressing too much about it. :)

Banes

Sorry to hear that happened! I was hoping everything was okay with you. Good luck with getting it all put back together there! And hey, congrats on the new machine! That's an upside for sure!

Over50Gamer

As someone with a homebuilt system (and all the growing pains that came with it! 😅), and had to learn the hard way about making and investing in reliable backup soutions, I feel for ya! I'm glad you back up all your raw project material; that definitely saved your ass in production! Anyways, good luck with the new machine. I know how render times feel after upgrading and seeing it all run so much quicker and smoother. ❤️

Geoff S.

No worries Jen! Sorry for the problems you’ve had. 😢

inspectordh

Don't worry about it Jen. You do a lot for this community. Do what you can at your own pace. Thank you for all that you do for us. You rock.

Collinson

AHH no such a shame to lose work and have to redo it. Don't worry we'll be patient.

Kev Longley

As long as you get star trek out I'll be good

Jack O

Aw man, I recently had my primary OS drive completely crap out on me and it was a headache and a half to fix so I completely sympathize! Glad to hear you're getting things sorted out (reconfiguring audio settings is the WORST though) and are getting operational again!

Marc Peterson

Hang in there, you are a YouTube treasure! You’ll be back better than ever!

djKENTO

My copy of Excalibur is late for delivery anyway so I can wait haha. Glad things are okay and the new computer sounds rad.

Lemurian Jones

So I can call off the search party? Computers are awesome until they're not. I never shouted at inanimate objects before I got a computer.

Zapp Rowsdower

Nothing can frustrate like a pc that messes up your work. That happened to me once after doing some heavy video editing and failing to back up my progress onto a separate drive. I woke up one day and it was done for. I feel your pain on that part.

Struzzylive

Calm down lol you’ll get there and I’ll keep waiting for you to see ds9 season 3

JDV

No worries :)

Mike Fox

Hey no prob Jen. No stranger to computer malfunctions. Stay cool and see ya when you're ready :)

Adam Davis

Well, firstly, I'm glad to hear that you didn't lose too much, Jen, but when these sorts of things happen it's never good, but hopefully the new PC or Mac will make things easier for you going forward.

Julian San

Hey, we’re just happy it wasn’t something worse.

Kevin Sommerfield

Sorry to hear about your computer, it sounds like a huge pain. Thanks for all of your hard work, it is appreciated!

Shawn C

So happy to hear computer issues. Not that I'm happy your PC exploded, that's always a hassle. Just saying I'm glad you and yours are good.

The Star Treker (aka Michael)

No problem at all, Jen. No worries. I'm really sorry about your computer—losing a hard drive is brutal, but having the whole system fry? That's a nightmare. I've had drives fail on me before, and that was bad enough, but I can't even imagine dealing with a total meltdown. I'm just relieved you didn't lose everything. That would've been devastating. I'm really glad most of your reaction videos were recovered. Having to re-edit some is a huge hassle, but at least the majority were saved. Take your time getting everything back in order—no rush. I'm definitely looking forward to more of your reaction content, especially your next episodes of TNG and DS9. Can't wait to see what you think!

The Star Treker (aka Michael)
>>166287218

Haha! Honestly, that's the only logical explanation at this point. Quark must've pulled some shady deal, and now she is stuck paying the price. If only Jen had some gold-pressed latinum on hand—maybe she could've bribed him into at least warning her first! Guess she'll have to track down Odo and launch a full investigation. Though, knowing Quark, he'd just deny everything with that smug little grin of his. I appreciate the laugh—this made my day! I hope this makes hers too! Lol. 🤣😁❤️🖖

The Star Treker (aka Michael)
>>166285919

Okay, I'm officially jealous. Lol. I've got an RTX 4060 Ti, but I'm really happy you got a new PC—especially if it's as good as or even better than mine. The 4060 and 4070 are both solid cards especially for gaming. I think I almost went for a 4070 but honestly don't even remember at this point. My current PC is coming up on two years now, which is wild to think about. And of course, just as I'm getting comfortable, Nvidia decides to drop the RTX 5000 series. The upgrade cycle never ends! Lol

We are going to need to see pics of this beast of a machine Jen. Unless you've decorated it with unicorns and rainbows...but glad to hear you are ok!

Erik Lundmark

No worries! It's a fact of life; computers fry. If you managed to restore 95% you did better than most people would. Looking fwd to Batman something fierce !!

Nicholas Bielik

Glad there was some good stuff that came out of what must have been a frustrating situation. Happy to watch whenever you’ve got things situated.

Kristen

Happy to hear your computer was sick and not you!

Happy Hanukkah

I am not looking forward to October and the end of support for Windows 10, when I'll have to make a decision regarding my perfectly fine computer. (Yes, I am quite familiar with the hack, with ESU, and with Linux.)

jon bolton

I'm sorry Jen, i know from experience the frustration of a computer dying on you. I'm glad you got a nice new one you love, and the things you lost weren't nearly as bad as they could have been.

Don Kelley

Hi Jen. Congrats on the new PC, sorry about the old one. You dealt with this setback remarkably well. Take care!

Riddle me this: When is a person like a piece of wood? and When is a bonnet not a bonnet?
