My school finally updated Firefox to the latest version so RDN Refresh works now. Productivity levels = low.

@omni Lulz. Even the Firefox 3.6.whatever it was running before beats that. XD
Thursday, 22-Mar-12 15:13:11 UTC from web-
@yodelerty FF3.6 is better than FF7. :/ Or at least faster.

@yodelerty I use all the latest safari and firefox. I always update it when I can.

@thecloakednightmare The computers here require that users have administrative privileges to install anything.

@yodelerty I think I might know that (I think) You know what, I think since my dad is amazing with computers I should know all this. :(

@omni Run a copy of Firefox from a flash drive.

@redenchilada We're not allowed to run any .exe files. The system blocks executing any file that isn't on a whitelist. Our system admin got quite paranoid after one of my friends turned the school network into a botnet, stole all the personal files of all students and the complete school database. Fun fact: he still has access to all of that, .exe files were never the problem.

@omni To add to that, even our right mouse button has been disabled, which really kills efficiency.
Thursday, 22-Mar-12 15:17:54 UTC from Choqok-
@omni Press the "opt." button and click, that functions as a right click.

@thecloakednightmare Ahahaha you use Macs.
Thursday, 22-Mar-12 15:21:15 UTC from StatusNet Android-
@redenchilada Yeah, I do. I use a Mac mini, with Flash that I manually installed. Now I'm really embarrassed about that rather obviously wrong comment I made.

@thecloakednightmare Opt button? We're using Windows PCs, not MACs.
Thursday, 22-Mar-12 15:22:20 UTC from Choqok-
@omni Oh, sorry. I feel really stupid right now, and rather embarrassed. •///.///•

@thecloakednightmare Guess how I feel when I start getting annoyed because all my special Linux hotkeys don't work on my Windows installation just to remember that I'm forced to use "that OS I don't really like" again =/
Thursday, 22-Mar-12 15:29:02 UTC from Choqok-
@omni I find going from Windows to Mac the worst.

@greatandpowerfuleaglehooves I've never used a MAC, but I'm generally not too fond of Apple's "you use one product, you use all our products" marketing so I'd rather stay far away from it.
Thursday, 22-Mar-12 15:33:43 UTC from Choqok-
@omni Why don't you like that?! Its actually quite handy and money saving.... Sometimes.
Thursday, 22-Mar-12 15:36:47 UTC from web-
@thecloakednightmare Because I own an iPod Touch and I'm getting doleed off every day Apple thinks that owning a music player from them means they get to decide which Operating System I use as well. No. I buy one product and if I want to integrate stuff with each other then that is my choice, not Apple's choice.

@omni I'm not a fan of their computers either. I like the idea of the challenge though. My laptop would be a hay of a fight to Hackintosh though. The hardware doesn't play nice with Linux, so OSx isn't happening.
Thursday, 22-Mar-12 15:38:36 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@greatandpowerfuleaglehooves That reminds me, I should boot up my old FrankenDell and see if it still works.

@omni I use a Mac, and I hate not being able to use all the things I know about them when I'm at my school. They all use really old windows. :(
Thursday, 22-Mar-12 15:33:41 UTC from web-
@thecloakednightmare I hate that I can't easily tile things like I'm used to on my Linux system. One Window at a time and Windows overlapping each other just feels so... inefficient to me.
Thursday, 22-Mar-12 15:34:46 UTC from Choqok-
@omni I think you can tight click that long bar at the bottom, and it'll give you some options ;)
Thursday, 22-Mar-12 15:35:49 UTC from web-
@derpyshy You mean resizing them manually? I want them to do that automatically, resizing manually for each new Window is so much work =/

@omni That's impressive. I don't suppose you could make it impersonate something on the whitelist?
Thursday, 22-Mar-12 15:20:22 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@greatandpowerfuleaglehooves I definitely could, but as long as I can browse my tech blogs and make it look like I'm doing school-related stuff I'm fine.

@omni Ew. That sounds terrible.
Thursday, 22-Mar-12 15:20:38 UTC from StatusNet Android-
@redenchilada The database with locations, full names and private contact info of all students will surely help me one day when I get my revenge... But besides that, it's saddening, yes, though not as hilarious as the HBGary hack.

@ponyray Huh? What? I'm really sorry that I don't know what your talking about. I'm talking to at least five other bronies at once. It's hard to follow.
