@widget it never does without asking for backup for me.
-
Auugh, I friggin hate windows.
-
@minti windows is pretty hype
-
@abigpony Within 5 minutes of using it I apparently corrupted my entire user profile. xD
-
@minti I like them, and being able to look outside.
-
@minti That just means you're doing it wrong.
-
@thehighlander Windows*
-
@minti Good to know I'm not the only one who has the most impossible issues under Windows when I barely touch it.
-
@minti You're officially worse than some of the people I have to bail out.
-
@minti that doesn't happen. How does that even work?
-
@eaglehooves :p At least I'm able to fix it.
-
@minti Get double glazing.
-
@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" ...
-
@minti True. Everyone at IT has the oddest most impossible ball of non-standard software on their personal machine.
-
@minti sounds like a personal problem
-
Solidus Sans likes this.
-
@abigpony It does it without asking me anything whenever it manages to freeze completely and I need to forcefully shut it down.
-
@thehighlander At least it's not a browser war.
-
@eaglehooves IE MASTER RACE
-
@omni that doesn't do anything for me. It just... Shuts down.
-
@minti SAFARI (on Windows) FTW.
-
@eaglehooves why would we war with browsers? Just choose one and deal.
-
@thehighlander Because apparently every browser is superior to every other browser (except IE)
-
@thehighlander you would be surprised. Really surprised.
-
@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!
-
@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
-
@minti @eaglehooves you tell those punks that if they don't use IE they don't rate. #street
-
@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
-
@ceruleanspark I have no clue but once it pops up once it doesn't seem to go away.
-
@widget when. I have never even ancountered anything like that past XP.
-
@ceruleanspark Silly Linux users haven't learned how to beat Windows into submission yet.
-
@minti but windows DOESN'T do that.
-
@abigpony Yeah it does, first hand experience here. xD
-
@eaglehooves It's coming my friend! xD
-
@minti same. It doesn't anymore. Windows autosaves. If it crashes, it comes right back where you left off.
-
@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
-
@abigpony Not for me. If you cut power to the machine it flips the crap out for me. xD
-
@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?
-
@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.
-
@minti It's not really DOS y'know.
-
@omni that's the first i've heard of it past xp.
-
@minti (Don't do what I just said.)
-
@ceruleanspark I know. I was just making up a silly name to compare it to the GUI utility.
-
@minti Yeah man DOS is no more xD
-
@minti yeah, then it does a quick recovery on reboot and it recovers to where it was when it froze or you unplugged it.
-
@shadowdash454 IT LIVES ON IN MY HEART, AND IN MY FLOPPIES OKAY
-
@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
-
@minti Hey I have a computer with DOS 6.2 on it xD
-
@minti It lives on in a perfectly cromulent manner in the form of FreeDOS.
-
@minti It plays Duke Nukem 3D like a king xD
-
@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.
-
@anarchycarcino i want mac and cheese. I'm going to ralphs in a minute i think.
