Nope, I love it. But I did a clean install so there was a much lower risk.

I like how it is all the things that I enjoyed from 7 and the only things that were remotely good from 8 and none of the bad things from either.

Yeah I like it but I wish it looked a bit more like 8 with the windows and everything, I liked that flat design.

The window multitasking, windows+tab menu, cortana, start menu, yeah. I love it.

I was using 8 though so really you didn't have to give me very much for it to be a worthy upgrade.

I'd go into privacy settings if I were you and disable the thing that takes all your calendars, notes, and your contacts to microsofts servers.

I'd also disable the thing that will randomly ping your computer for its location information, which it stores in microsofts servers

I shot a GMO the other day and ground up the GMO meats and made a hamburger from it.
It was delicious.

GMOs are great and are the likely answer to world hunger if we ever get around to trying to solve that.

If Norman Borlaug says GMOs are good, GMOs are good.

It's better than the free-range vegan culture (I am generalizing) that loves things like quinoa and then makes staple food prices in south america skyrocket.

Agreed, and that's why Bernie Sanders is unfit to be president.

If you look at his stances, Bernie is actually rather anti-science, but he's right about so many other things and we have absolutely no other good choices so he's still by a wide margin the best choice.

GMO labeling is only bad because it reinforces a bad assumption about them. It should probably still be okay to allow a product to advertise as GMO free or whatever if they have a superstitious base. Fortunately, there's no way GMO labeling is ever going to happen due to the very wide use of GMO-created high fructose corn syrup and the like by companies large and small.

Check out this misleading news title: "Bangladeshi blogger Niloy Neel hacked to death in latest attack"

He was hacked to pieces by a hachet or an axe or something sharp. His computer wasn't hacked so hard that he died from it. Pretty funny if you ask me.

to what you just said.

Can you repeat yourself
in a more interesting way?

I don't apologize for my erratic behavior. What can I say? I'm new to the magic of mafia threads, although it has been a lot of fun -- at times.

"So I like to drink, but I also like to save peoples' lives.. So either I get it right and save a life, or I might gently caress it up. Nobody said I was perfect.


If someone were attacked, well I can save them, but if I try to save someone that isn't attacked, well I hosed up. Hey, nobody said I was perfect, right?

Last night, I performed CPR on Ashenai, I thought he was a good guy, so I wanted to save him. After all, he'd been pretty vocal, so there was a good chance the mafia would be coming after him.

That night, Ashenai didn't die. Thank God for my CPR then, he obviously was targetted by the mafia, those bastards! But then it was announced that Nika Dmitriev (Captain Capitalism), a doctor, had been beheaded. How'd the mafia go after both Ashenai and Nika, and yet only one of them died?

If Ashenai had been targetted by the mafia, then I would have saved him. But if Ashenai had not been targetted by the mafia, then my alcoholic CPR skills should have killed him. Why didn't this happen? And why is Nika dead?

So what does this all mean? I don't have a clue. And I'm loving thirsty."


[Hope this helps, town. I don't know if it will. Good luck to you non-scum.]

[After a roleclaim, I think I'm definitely a threat to scum. And maybe I wouldn't get lynched right now, but we all know people would always return to the Iraff/Juanito chant/whine/bandwagon, so I'll save everybody (including myself) some time.]

Petya takes another swig and finishes the bottle. He belches, bangs the empty bottle onto the table, and slaps it onto the floor, where it shatters. He reaches for another bottle, but doesn't find one. Petya checks amongst his scarce medical supplies, but he's all out of vodka. He could walk a few houses down and get some more, but gently caress that.


This lovely city would probably love an excuse to lynch him. Well, I won't give them the satisfaction by going out there drunk.

"Of all times to run out of vodka," Petya mutters under his breath, "I'm so fuckin' thirsty."

He reaches for a claw hammer.

However, I have just the solution to my ills. One of you awesome folks should run a WWE themed tag team royal rumble game. It would be the greatest thing ever and make this poor old man happy.
