I've heard Gaius Lavinius is having problems with thieves down at the docks.

Knight posted:Yes, actually. Across a few generations of Fujitsu lifebooks but the most recent is the Intel Wireless-N 7265. I have a couple t801s still out in circulation. If I install 10 on them none of third party drivers can be installed and when it updates it forces an unbeatable scenario requiring an OS roll back. This is even if I manually remove updates. As someone who uses slot of second hand hardware windows 10 is a clusterfuck if your system is more than a couple years old. 8.1 for lyfe

I don't really like how Intel is in bed with MS now. You can't use their newer chips if you aren't on 10.

paul_soccer10 posted:do you wanna play some battlefield 1 I like Battlefield 1 but I have it on my Xbox One, another fine Microsoft product! lol I'm playing the 5th Battlefield on the 3rd Xbox and they are both called "one". I can't wait for the fourth Star Wars: Battlefront, called Star Wars: Battlefront 2.

gary oldmans diary posted:its pointless to say re-format. adds nothing to whatever youre trying to say. secondly, it came formatted from the manufacturer. if format and reformat was a meaningful distinction (which it isnt) then you would have never actually formatted in the first place. now the distinction between format and reformat is redundant and meaningless. third, every format utility says format. all well-written documentation says format. 4th you already knew you werent very knowledgeable about this sort of thing

I also have to wonder what's wrong with people when they give 2 shits what the start menu looks like. If you're not opening it up and immediately typing in what you need then GTFO. The search function not working on the other hand that is some legit stupid poo poo on MS's part. Come on guys.

While I completely agree it does not change the fact that I was barraged with users claiming that they knew best; I think its a cultural change as much of a technical. Anecdotally I actually experienced more headaches as a bench tech with the Windows 7 launch then I ever did with Vista, drivers for many common, name-brand, add-ons (printers, scanners, etc) were late to the table for Windows 7 drivers or would only have a 32bit version available. Time passed and now everyone regards 7 as the best MS OS of all time, it's all perception.

It's gonna be loving hilarious when a ton of people have their windows 7 computers start dying and instead of buying new windows 10 computers just not have traditional PCs anymore because why bother. Have sales of traditional desktops and laptops even recovered from when windows 8 tanked?

I like macro$haft. Anyway, when I format something that has already been formatted then I am "formatting again". But that's way more keystrokes than "reformat" and it means basically the same thing so gently caress off with your nerdery. It's not on the same level as ATM Machine.

Only hitch is needing a usb driver fix if you're installing on a system without an optical drive also lol @ the conspiracy theories ITT
