Fixing broken make up!

So I got a shipment yesterday from drugstore.com, but one of the wet n’ wild eye shadows I ordered arrived broken :-( Thanks to pintress I was able to fix it asap. 

Step 1: using a toothpick i smashed up the rest as best as I could

Step 2: using a straw to drop 99% alcohol onto the now powder make up. I used enough to wet the whole pallet.

Step 3: using the toothpick i smoothed out the now paste and waited 10 min. 

Step4: Came back and used a kleenex to press down on the paste to compact it and smooth it out. 

a few hours later it was dry and usable without the mess :-)

Oh YES I need dis. 

I didn’t realize this was like a secret. I used to do this to all of my cracked shadows. Works like a charm.

Copying steam games from one PC to another

Quick reference post. with the last few steam updates, the old method of copying your Steamapps folder to a different machine - avoiding game redownloading - is now a touch erratic. For some games, it works fine. For others - Payday 2, I’m looking at you - Steam will often say it sees existing game files then start to redownload the entire thing anyway.

The “solution” is as random as Steam deciding whether or not to chew up some bandwidth.

1) Cut / paste the entire Steamapps folder into the new Steam directory on your fresh install.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps < WHERE THE GAMES LIVE

Steam will either see the files (“existing files detected”) and install the game, OR it will see the files then start downloading. Whoops.

2) Stop the download, delete existing files (right click the game in the download menu and select delete). You’ll notice it won’t delete the files for the game in the Steamapps folder, just whatever is in the downloading folder.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\downloading < WHERE THE DOWNLOADS LIVE

Notice also that all Steam games in the download folder are in a numbered folder - each game has a Steam ID. If you’re stuck, just type (GAME NAME) STEAM ID into Google and get the ID for the game you want.

3) Create an empty folder in Downloading, rename it to whatever Steam game ID you’re after. Then copypaste all files into the numbered folder.

4) Try to install the game. If the standard method for copying files to a new PC didn’t work, this might.

5) If THAT fails, delete again then copy all the files to both the Steamapps directory AND the downloads folder.

Again: very random. I’ve now had reinstalls for Payday 2 which only worked when I had files in both folders, and also one time where I had them in the downloading folder only. This makes no sense.

I also have some other games which now stubbornly insist on redownloading everything anyway such as Dragon Age Origins.

As you might imagine, this sucks. Steam never used to be this erratic where reinstalling a game was concerned, and this now happens to me on both Win7 and 8. It started happening around the time the updates went in with the new website revamp, so clearly blue logos and backgrounds are evil and should be replaced.
