i dont know poo poo about gpo anymore so i guess i can ask here my dad called and asked if theres a way for him to increase the res on his remote desktop connection. his work issued him some lenovo posbook with a 13" 1920x1080 screen, so i had him increase the dpi settings on windows 8. problem is that he has to rdp into a server (running server 2008) to do some work poo poo, but he cant see anything because it wont let him increase the dpi/decrease the resolution full screen over rdp or something. halp

Phoenixan posted:gotta love those, 'dad, you're hosed' situations hes getting old too so his eyes arent so great anymore  as a workaround i just set the dpi to normal and bumped the res down to like 1366x768 but obviously everything is all blurry because of the scaling. i emailed him about the hotfix so i guess i'm gonna get a bunch of confused calls from him again

univbee posted:1. That is an amazingly criterionesque poster word and excel are on os x and use the same file format as windows. you can use IE 6 under wine and it runs as well as it does on windows (read: not very well). wine/mono will work in a pinch for windows apps, and wine doesn't require X11 anymore so windows apps behave like cocoa ones e: also for file serving 10.9 and up use SMB as the default protocol so idk what you're talking about Beeftweeter fucked around with this message at 02:33 on Jul 8, 2014 |

univbee posted:so does openoffice but there's a very good reason you don't see it championed for office use you're an idiot for equating openoffice and an office suite developed by microsoft you can use plugins and poo poo in wine and ie 7 and 8 work. its basically a fake windows installation so anything that runs on windows should theoretically work (there are tons of compatibility issues but most major apps like adobe/microsoft poo poo work fine unless its something that requires wpf)

"mobile" equates to "devices" because the former depends entirely on the latter, while "cloud" translates to "services" becaus ewhat the gently caress else do you use a cloud for? the messaging is stupid. cloud and mobile cant both be first

IE will spoof safari in the latest windows phone update wow thats horribly written. paul is losing it quote:IE 11 in Windows Phone 8.1 is on the left, and IE (whatever) in Windows Phone 8.1 Update 1 is on the right. That rightmost display matches what you'd see today if you browsed to tiwtter.com with your iPhone or Android handset. i guess nobody is really going to read it though, apparently not even paul himself

1.0 out of 5 stars Good luck if you want to ever play a game with someone SITTING IN THE SAME ROOM. This is BULLSH*T, August 7, 2014 By itsme72002 - See all my reviews This review is from: Xbox One Console - Day One Edition (Video Game) I'm starting to ABSOLUTELY HATE everything about how this system has evolved. It seems so many of the best games supposedly let you play with other gamers across the globe (after forcing you to sign up for a ridiculous amount of extra accounts that then try to charge you - OH WAIT I NEED AN XBOX GOLD ACCOUNT, AND THEN AN EA ORIGIN ACCOUNT, AND WHAT ELSE !!!!!!!!), but I can't play or it's impossible to figure out how to play a game with a person sitting in the SAME F*&&^%^&&&&ING ROOM RIGHT NEXT TO YOU. This is typical BULLSH*T Microsoft.
