if iTunes is a better alternative than your own music app then you seriously done hosed up.

i'm as much of an apple fan as there is but iTunes is loving dogshit.

iTunes is the representative piece of software that was real good but keeps getting shittier by the release.

All I want is the ability to keep two playlists that split my library up and to be able to view them independently and upload them to my phone independently, the gently caress is the problem

itunes was a product apple bought from someone else. it was originally a good enough product that consumers paid money to use it.

from the moment apple engineers touched the software, it has steadily gotten worse each day

I thought it was real good up until two years ago.

my computer is really messed up.

it will turn "on" but the USB devices don't power up and the BIOS boot screen doesn't show.

so there's nothing at all that can be done.

but sometimes if I wait 5 minutes it will beep and boot up to windows as normal.

so I'm basically booting it up and waiting 5 minutes and if nothing happens I restart it and try again.

Why are you posting that in this thread. What are you doing.

Guys, my toaster stopped working. I could just eat this bread but I prefer to apply heat to it first. Could this be the fault of the IoT?

I'm ... pretty sure that isn't Windows' fault?

I'd suggest you disconnect all the drives to see if it does anything novel when it can only go to the firmware config interface but at this point I'm afraid your computer might accidentally install BeOS on itself.

So I got myself a cheap, hardly used, Lumia 550 - and I must say, after I've installed the apps I needed, that I've more than pleased with Windows 10 Mobile.

I will, when I'm going to get a new phone (got a Samsung Note 4 at the moment), get myself a Lumia 950.

Public service announcement!

If you have a Lumia 550, and you are on the Windows Insider Fast Ring - do not install that latest "Redstone" update. You'll loose the ability to charge your phone.

Of course if you do it like me, you'll end up having to use the recovery tool to get it up and running again - hopefully you'll be able to do that before running out of battery.

they haven't really released anything dx12 yet other than some korean f2p games, which get like a 3-4 fps increase

quantum break is probably going to be the first fully dx12 product
