Useless Thread MDCCCIV: Carry on then

[John Price]

Remember when Microsoft put a goddamn Halo character into Windows?

Cortana, lirl, what shit

Lol

I think it's still there I disable it

 

[John Price]

"Oh, but it's like Toy Story, where some other kid gets to make memories with those toys."

Back off, you little shit

Big fan of hoarding

Hoarding can go too far sometimes there is a HGTV show literally about people uncluttering

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

Lol

I think it's still there I disable it

Yeah, it's one of the million things to disable in order to make W10 remotely usable

How hard would it be for Microsoft to offer two versions of Windows?

One can be the normal version with all their stupid shit enabled, the other can be a stripped down version with nothing but Windows.

Hell, they could even just make it an option when installing Windows

Still upset we got rid of all my Lego when my family moved from PA to NC.

We didn't even sell them, we just gave them away. Never mind the sentimental value, I'm sure that was a couple thousand dollars worth of Lego that we flushed down the shitter

That's terrible for you sewer/septic system

I installed W10 LTSB on my somewhat old laptop last week.

After I got it activated, it seems to work just fine

Ronda should sit down and have a Holly Holm-sized cup of shut the f*** up.

How can you blame the fans for not liking something, rather than the writers that wrote and booked the shit?

It's entirely possible for the fans to like the person playing a character while disliking every creative decision about the character.

Damage control: Microsoft deletes all comments under heavily criticized Windows 11 upgrade video

Wow, Microsoft, it's almost like no one wants to be bothered by upgrading their operating system, especially when it's plainly obvious that we will see little to no benefit.

I thought Windows 10 was going to be last Windows, or some other idiotic claim like that

Get Fedora

Don't gotta convince me into using Linux.

We just have to convince all the people that are too scared to try something other than Windows and we'll be golden

I grew up in the 70's and shag carpet and lego have left some long lingering toe and foot injuries into my older age...

If I had a bucket of them I'd probably have them all over the floor building something right now though...

 

[Tarantula]

I miss building a handfull of lego and watching it break apart after throwing it at my younger brother.

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

Suddenly started feeling like shit about 30 minutes ago.

Thought it was the old "Let's remember something that will make you feel like shit then forget about it so you still feel like shit, but can't remember why", but it's more likely I've had too much coffee

 

[John Price]

Yeah the coffee will make you feel like shit

ease off that

If you have kids you can buy Legos with the excuse they're for the kids when they're actually for you.



From what I hear.

Ah, I was wondering how you were familiar with Lawrence Welk. Some reason I thought you were younger. Nice to have another contemporary in these parts.

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

Well coffee and stressing myself out about 1,000 different things

 

[RayP]

What is the backstory of that picture?

Old enough to remember this, you knew Barney and Fish were going to be up to their necks every Thursday.

Quincy Jones brought us the theme to Sanford and Sonhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5DnqW3F57E, and it damn well sounded better through the old RCA 8 inch speaker on a old cathode ray tube TV then anything our parents played through this:

I was actually more partial to this gem that followed Barney on Thursdays: (long live Chester Tate!)

How do Hurricanes feel about humans appropriating their name for a football team? Did anyone ask them??

Why do we give names to hurricanes, but not other extreme weather events?

This thread is now about the tornado scene from Man of Steel. Tin Cup died for no reason.

I work in software and have slowly been converting people over the last couple of years. About half the dev team uses ubuntu now. I'm trying to get those folks to branch out a little more, but it's exciting nonetheless.

Support is basically on point with Windows these days. IT can even install Windows Defender to monitor any local issues. Only sucky part is that Visual Studio isn't natively supported in there, but a lot of us use Rider anyway, so it's not the end of the world. We're getting close and it's fantastic.
