@minti windows is pretty hype
-
@abigpony Within 5 minutes of using it I apparently corrupted my entire user profile. xD
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 17:43:03 UTC from web-
@minti That just means you're doing it wrong.
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 17:43:40 UTC from web -
@minti Good to know I'm not the only one who has the most impossible issues under Windows when I barely touch it.
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 17:43:53 UTC from web -
@minti You're officially worse than some of the people I have to bail out.
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 17:44:21 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@eaglehooves :p At least I'm able to fix it.
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 17:44:52 UTC from web-
@minti True. Everyone at IT has the oddest most impossible ball of non-standard software on their personal machine.

@minti that doesn't happen. How does that even work?
-
@abigpony I don't even know! D: I tried to reinstall CCleaner and apparently the installer corrupted my entire user directory and my temp directory is now "corrupted and unreadable" ...
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 17:45:34 UTC from web-
@minti sounds like a personal problem

@minti I like them, and being able to look outside.

@thehighlander At least it's not a browser war.
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 17:48:31 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@eaglehooves IE MASTER RACE
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 17:48:51 UTC from web-
@minti SAFARI (on Windows) FTW.

@eaglehooves why would we war with browsers? Just choose one and deal.
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 17:50:23 UTC from web-
@thehighlander Because apparently every browser is superior to every other browser (except IE)
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 17:50:48 UTC from web-
@minti @eaglehooves you tell those punks that if they don't use IE they don't rate. #street

@thehighlander Because I know more than a few people who don't care whether you use OS X or Windows, BUT YOU MUST BE USING CHROME!!1!

@widget it never does without asking for backup for me.
-
@abigpony It does it without asking me anything whenever it manages to freeze completely and I need to forcefully shut it down.
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 17:48:11 UTC from web-
@omni that doesn't do anything for me. It just... Shuts down.
-
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 17:50:45 UTC from web
-
@omni yeah, i still get no problems there.
-
@abigpony Are we both talking about the same CHKDSK? I'm talking about this one, which runs after a bad shutdown (you can cancel it, but if you let it run it doesn't mind deleting stuff by itself): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHKDSK
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 17:53:16 UTC from web-
@omni i don't even know what that is.
-
@abigpony It's a stupid thing that runs if you turn your computer off abnormally (Ie power outage.) It'll try "repairing" any damaged files by deleting them. xD
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 17:56:19 UTC from web-
@minti but windows DOESN'T do that.
-
@abigpony Yeah it does, first hand experience here. xD
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 17:59:11 UTC from web-
@minti same. It doesn't anymore. Windows autosaves. If it crashes, it comes right back where you left off.
-
@abigpony Not for me. If you cut power to the machine it flips the crap out for me. xD
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 18:02:15 UTC from web-
@minti i seriously don't get how people have so many problems with things.
-
@abigpony I'm prone to having stupid retarded problems with stuff, so what I use usually depends on how easy it is to troubleshoot and solve any problems I run into.

@abigpony I have had it several times under Vista (well, let's talk about 50+) and 7. It still happens, otherwise it, well, wouldn't happen, you know?
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 18:02:54 UTC from web-
@omni that's the first i've heard of it past xp.
-
-
@abigpony @minti Mind you, I'm literally talking about UNPLUGGING IT while it's running. If you just press the power button it'll happly shut down and not display chkisk EPIC DOS MODE. xD
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 18:04:22 UTC from web-
@minti It's not really DOS y'know.
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 18:05:19 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark I know. I was just making up a silly name to compare it to the GUI utility.

@minti (Don't do what I just said.)
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 18:05:36 UTC from web -
@minti Yeah man DOS is no more xD
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 18:06:04 UTC from web-
@shadowdash454 IT LIVES ON IN MY HEART, AND IN MY FLOPPIES OKAY
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 18:06:31 UTC from web-
@minti Hey I have a computer with DOS 6.2 on it xD
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 18:07:39 UTC from web-
@shadowdash454 lolol
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 18:08:37 UTC from web-
@minti It plays Duke Nukem 3D like a king xD

@minti It lives on in a perfectly cromulent manner in the form of FreeDOS.

@minti yeah, then it does a quick recovery on reboot and it recovers to where it was when it froze or you unplugged it.
-
@abigpony Huh? Mine just totally reboots, does chkdisk cause Windows was shut down abnormally (you can skip this but it asks you on every reboot after -.-) then does a normal boot, not a hybernate or w.e
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 18:07:21 UTC from web-
@minti mine just does a quick recovery and whatnot. Whatever. Maybe i'm just... I don't know.

@anarchycarcino Well, at least your sandwich will be stylish? I wonder how a Mac would taste, though.

@widget @minti What the hell are you guys doing to your computers. I power off my work laptop "unsafely" all the time and I almost never see the chkdisk screen.
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 17:57:27 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark I have no clue but once it pops up once it doesn't seem to go away.
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 17:58:15 UTC from web -
@ceruleanspark Silly Linux users haven't learned how to beat Windows into submission yet.
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 17:58:48 UTC from StatusNet iPhone-
@eaglehooves It's coming my friend! xD
Wednesday, 03-Oct-12 18:00:35 UTC from web -
@eaglehooves I gave up after many years. At least Linux seems to be happy to boot it. Thinking of that, I should hack it up to display a random motivational text every time so I feel better about myself :x
