[2016-1-14. : 1:22 am]  Lanthanide -- who wants to bet that the next sen new posts will be happy thanksgiving 2016 from SEN?[2016-1-14. : 12:48 am]  Moose -- "After Clinton's baseless attacks on Bernie's proposal for Universal Healthcare (and after she sent her daughter on TV to launch another attack), Bernie finally responds": HILLAREKT[2016-1-13. : 11:37 pm]  Fire_Kame -- you and your strangely close relationships with relatives that may or may not exist[2016-1-13. : 11:17 pm] NudeRaider -- RoyRoy shouted: NudeRaider Who said anything about my aunt? Aunt Marge. no excuses now, we all know that you let the malware run rampant on your aunts PC[2016-1-13. : 11:00 pm] Moose -- RoyRoy shouted: You could also just back up everything and wipe the drive. That's what I do. Then you can set up dual boot easily. X^D[2016-1-13. : 10:53 pm] l)ark_ssj9kevin -- but he has to upgrade at least once to activate his windows 10 key for that computer[2016-1-13. : 10:51 pm] Roy -- Upgrading from the desktop has been problematic every time I've seen it attempted.[2016-1-13. : 10:49 pm] Roy -- You could also just back up everything and wipe the drive. That's what I do.[2016-1-13. : 10:49 pm] Roy -- If you don't delete/format the drive, it leaves most things intact, and even throws the old OS stuff in C:\Windows.old.[2016-1-13. : 10:46 pm] Corbo -- RoyRoy shouted: I'd just do a fresh install, Corbo. Make a bootable USB. RoyRoy shouted: Unless... you can't use your 7 key when you do that. don't know what you mean, also sounds like i'll be losing my files which is not what i want.[2016-1-13. : 10:39 pm] Roy -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: Dem0n Well, it's annoying for sure, and far more effective at making a fuss over media, but you can turn off most (all?) of it, so that wouldn't stop me personally. Of course it's a big problem for Roy's Aunt, however just from my point of view. The aunt couldn't probably care less about it (despite Roy not turning it off for her). Who said anything about my aunt? Aunt Marge.[2016-1-13. : 10:36 pm] Corbo -- that's where it gets stuck. (It's been around 1 hour stuck there atm)[2016-1-13. : 10:36 pm] Roy -- Actually longer, but his disassociation has been solidified since he relinquished most of his shares in 2014.[2016-1-13. : 10:36 pm] Corbo -- but I cannot update for some reason. I have downloaded it so many times (via that stupid logo in my task bar) and whenever it's finished downloading it goes to the windows update screen and it gets stuck in the "Preparing for installation" phase. It doesn't even go past the "for"[2016-1-13. : 10:35 pm] Roy -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: NudeRaider which is why they are giving it out for free btw. I hope you didn't think they did it because Bill Gates suddenly decided he needs no more money. Bill Gates hasn't worked at Microsoft for almost two years now.[2016-1-13. : 10:33 pm] Roy -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: Dem0n They haven't started their plans yet. Windows 10 will be the last OS version. At some point they'll just turn Windows 10 into Windows, the service. Windows 10 is the technical foundation for that switch. Windows 8 was supposed to be the last OS version, with incremental major updates. That's where Windows 8.1 came from.[2016-1-13. : 9:38 pm] Generalpie -- >tfw you haven't played CS: GO in months and find yourself ranked as a Gold Nova I http://puu.sh/muCad/d8606cb037.jpg[2016-1-13. : 9:24 pm] Moose -- Me? I just do what I want. Unless I need escalated privileges. Then I sudo what I want.[2016-1-13. : 9:23 pm] jjf28 -- Mini Moose 2707Mini Moose 2707 shouted: Azrael Azrael Security: Protecting you from productivity, lel. this[2016-1-13. : 9:22 pm] Moose -- AzraelAzrael shouted: Most people use a computer to enjoy themselves or to accomplish something -- not to feel needlessly frustrated. AzraelAzrael shouted: If the computer is annoying the shit out of you, there's something wrong. Security: Protecting you from productivity, lel.[2016-1-13. : 9:22 pm] Moose -- Laughing my ass off at all of this UAC in shoutbox. sudo (and/or su) for life, in my humble opinion.[2016-1-13. : 8:41 pm] NudeRaider -- Dem0nDem0n shouted: NudeRaider I figured you were part of the "omg windows is taking away all our freedom and slowly installing spyware onto our computers so they can track what we're doing and report back to the nsa!!!!" crowd. Well, it's annoying for sure, and far more effective at making a fuss over media, but you can turn off most (all?) of it, so that wouldn't stop me personally. Of course it's a big problem for Roy's Aunt, however just from my point of view. The aunt couldn't probably care less about it (despite Roy not turning it off for her).[2016-1-13. : 8:38 pm] NudeRaider -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: Of course they want as many people as possible on their new platform before they do the switch. which is why they are giving it out for free btw. I hope you didn't think they did it because Bill Gates suddenly decided he needs no more money.[2016-1-13. : 8:36 pm] NudeRaider -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: Dem0n They haven't started their plans yet. Windows 10 will be the last OS version. At some point they'll just turn Windows 10 into Windows, the service. Windows 10 is the technical foundation for that switch. besides. The argument that you haven't noticed anything bad yet, sounds like you expect to never see any problems of the magnitude I described earlier again, which sounds pretty naive to me.[2016-1-13. : 8:32 pm] NudeRaider -- Of course they want as many people as possible on their new platform before they do the switch.[2016-1-13. : 8:32 pm] NudeRaider -- Dem0nDem0n shouted: I don't know, man; I've been using W10 for a year now and I haven't noticed any of these frustrating things that people keep talking about. I'm 99% certain that all the W10 complaints are just from completely technologically illiterate people. They haven't started their plans yet. Windows 10 will be the last OS version. At some point they'll just turn Windows 10 into Windows, the service. Windows 10 is the technical foundation for that switch.[2016-1-13. : 8:30 pm] NudeRaider -- AzraelAzrael shouted: I'm on Win7 because I don't like the changes they've made to Windows after that. same.[2016-1-13. : 8:29 pm] NudeRaider -- Dem0nDem0n shouted: Oh yeah, I always forget about Vista. AzraelAzrael shouted: I wish I could.  [2016-1-13. : 7:01 pm] Azrael -- Dem0nDem0n shouted: ohh I should play Shadowgate Dem0nDem0n shouted: The OST is so good ;_; Both true.[2016-1-13. : 7:01 pm] Azrael -- RoyRoy shouted: Dem0n Extended support for Windows 7 (which includes security updates) doesn't end until 2020, so you won't see it fade away until 2021. Additionally, if it still has a strong user base like XP did, this date will be pushed. Yay.[2016-1-13. : 6:35 pm] Dem0n -- Has anyone watched The Expanse? The first episode is literally the opening cinematic to Starcraft, lmao.[2016-1-13. : 6:13 pm] Alzarath -- Man, most of the top ten Rock the Cabinet maps are pretty crappy compared to last year's.[2016-1-13. : 6:02 pm] Roy -- Dem0nDem0n shouted: Well W7 support is ending this year, so it might die in a few years. Extended support for Windows 7 (which includes security updates) doesn't end until 2020, so you won't see it fade away until 2021. Additionally, if it still has a strong user base like XP did, this date will be pushed.[2016-1-13. : 5:41 pm] Dem0n -- I didn't have Turtle Beaches, so I couldn't hear footsteps behind me. Unfair.[2016-1-13. : 5:36 pm] Dem0n -- I remember when we played that for like 2 hours once, then never touched it again[2016-1-13. : 5:35 pm] Azrael -- Shadowgate, as much as I liked the FPS version, was one example of that.[2016-1-13. : 5:35 pm] Azrael -- Software that could have easily worked on XP (and in some cases, people managed to modify the code to get it to work on XP, because the Vista-exclusiveness was completely arbitrary).[2016-1-13. : 5:34 pm] Azrael -- I mean like: when Vista came out, no one liked it, so they got a bunch of new games/software to make themselves Vista-exclusive to try to force XP users to downgrade to Vista. |
