Unofficial Official Chat Thread

And who would I have said that to? the random people sitting over ten feet away from me?

Not to mention it was a hell of a lot smaller than a bullet hole would have been.

FUCK! I just bought l4d, and now it’s 50% off! I literally got it on monday.

:3

OK, my internet is getting downgraded from 12 Mbps to 4 Mbps, how bad is that? I have next to no knowledge about internet speeds…

Lol, now you can say “They got me!”.

wat

Translation: It’s gonna get BAD

Dammit. Am I really going to notice it any time besides downloading games/linux distros?

Guys, I accidentally my C:\ drive yesterday.

Some people might remember from BM chat that I said I was gonna get really high, well… I did, and I also got drunk, and when I came back home I tried to install a new OS and cleanup my files a little. I guess I passed out when windows failed to install because I was tired and was too fucked up to do anything anymore.

I woke up and my pc booted to “BOOTMGR not found” and after booting linux from my secondary drive, instead of my 500gb being filled up to the max like usually, I discovered the HDD freshly formatted and with 499GB free space. That’s right, all of my shit has been replaced with a fresh format and a clean (failed) install of windows 7 RTM… At that point I remembered what happened last night, but it was too late. I’m gonna spend the rest of today scanning the HDD for what’s left of my pathetic shit.

Ouch.

Anyway, Yeah that’s bad. You’re gonna crawl at that speed, your maximum internet speed is gonna go from about 1.5MB/s to about 0.05MB/s

So… did you recover ANY porn?

I am recovering everything right now, with the help of a cracked version of GetDataBackNTFS

Further explanation: I just wanted to get rid of a 15gb mac OS partition and make it one big drive, then install windows 7 (without formatting) I used Knoppix to resize my big partition and everything was cool but then windows 7 thought it was a good idea to format the drive without even asking me if I was sure, all I did was press “custom install” then “start” (I just pressed enter twice and it started installing itself on top of everything, my only hint was the free space unknown at the bottom of the screen)

that’s windows for ya

It all went downhill after 2K.

win7 is good inside.
after 15 years they finished the kernel-part of CreateProcess function.
and yes - they’ve divided kernel to several separate parts. that’s also cool,
it’s more hybrid now.

I’m still gonna install windows 7, at least my HDD is gonna be clean, I’m currently copying the deleted files to my 200GB drive, I had to delete most of my movies to free up space.

I think you may find it had more to do with being drunk and high, than with any inherent failure on Microsoft’s part… I always make it a point never to do mission critical stuff when high/drunk/tired/recently deceased… I always make bad decisions in those states!
:smiley:

oh, and windows 2K? that great OS that’s so broken microsoft can’t be arsed to fix it?

Oh, and in other news, the incomparable Charlie Brooker just wrote a rant on the virtues of Windows & Macs. Looks like the real world to me! :smiley:

I am an idiot.

Discuss.
