Windows 10 is the worst thing since Windows 95, which was the most inconvenient "upgrade" of all time. Every time things get more "user friendly", they get stupider. Once upon a time, I could do anything I wanted with a computer; I could customize it inside and out, and find out all the specs without having to search, it was easy if you had an ounce of brain power. Now? Win10? I have nothing. Fuck Bill Gates and his "user friendly" software that takes away control from the user. And yeah, I'm older than the fucking internet, and I remember every got damn "upgrade" that was forced on the users.RE: https://paypig.org/users/SONICMAN69/statuses/105953421100768153 - https://paypig.org/users/SONICMAN69/statuses/105953421100768153
"Every time things get more "user friendly", they get stupider."Well, there you go. Computers are so ubiquitous now that they're made for the masses, which means they're made for morons like me who have to get a 3 year old to show them how to do shit on one. They're made for the lowest common denominator.

@hard_no@degenerates.fail I like windows 10 but the 7->10 upgrade path is basically horribly broken and I would not recommend anyone upgrade a windows 7 system to 10. You must install from scratch

@BlinkRape@posting.lolicon.rocks @hard_no@degenerates.fail that can be done but it can also be incredibly frustrating. Depending on how the system was configured in 7 the upgrade may fail and rollback to 7 an hour in

@COOL_FREE_RINGTONES@poa.st - https://poa.st/users/COOL_FREE_RINGTONES I realized the other day that I am just incredibly resistant to change in tech. If I had lived in the late 1800s, I would have been one of those people ranting against modern pens."ink wells are perfectly fine! Why would anyone need a portable pen? What a ridiculous idea. That's what pencils are for! Pencils are fine."It's likely I would have been against the automobile as well. I'm kind of awful like that.

@hard_no@degenerates.fail considering tech has been getting progressively worse since like 2004 that is unlikely to be an irrational position

@BlinkRape@posting.lolicon.rocks @hard_no@degenerates.fail search google for "The system registry contains invalid file paths. Installation cannot proceed. This system image was applied without guaranteeing that drive-letter assignment would match across computers."

@BlinkRape@posting.lolicon.rocks @hard_no@degenerates.fail you have way too much faith in microsoft my friend, just because it worked for you doesn't mean it is reliable

@BlinkRape@posting.lolicon.rocks @hard_no@degenerates.fail it will work eventually, if you massage it. Be prepared to spend 2 days
@BlinkRape@posting.lolicon.rocks why bother getting a hardware key at all when KMS activating w10 works just fine by itself?

[email protected]@poa.st @BlinkRape@posting.lolicon.rocks @hard_no@degenerates.fail I don't think 8 works better for anything, the reason tro do an in-place upgrade of 7 is to avoid paying for 10. If you had 8 I guess you could but most people have 7 because 8 was ass

@COOL_FREE_RINGTONES@poa.st @BlinkRape@posting.lolicon.rocks @hard_no@degenerates.fail For some reason I had a transferrable license for 8 that I got when ms was selling them for 5 bux when 8 was getting all that bad press

@zero@kiwifarms.cc @BlinkRape@posting.lolicon.rocks [email protected]@poa.st @hard_no@degenerates.fail a guy in line at fry's electronics in sunnyvale california shamed me into buying it out of the blue because he overheard me bragging that I never bought windows before and he was wasting his money dude was fat and ugly and stank but was pretty persuasive
