We all have them; what are the tasks you automatically do when you boot your computer up everyday?
For me it's:
-Log On
-Load up Chrome and Steam
-Open tabs for Facebook, Facepunch, Twitter, Email and Youtube.
-Check tabs
-Go my merry way.
Start up Steam, Spotify, and Skype. Then I see what is on Facepunch.
Destroy 90% of the programs in my task manager
Quit out of Dropbox and Lightshot, start up Steam and Skype and go on the internet.
pray to god microsoft doesn't fuck me over on reboot
login
open chrome
open steam
video games
find one thing wrong with computer, stress out over it way too much, google search it and give up after five minutes
decide reboot can fix problem
reboot
repeat
Draw a pentagram on the floor, chant and beg for love from our one true god Gabe Newell, then maybe I go on Facepunch or something afterward.
Open Opera
Open tabs for Facepunch, Facebook, Twitter, and email
Check eBay bids/items being sold
Go on with whatever
