Just bought a game from a Car Boot that is so old I've had to install Windows 3.1 in DOSBOX to get it running.
[QUOTE=nikomo;45576809]Because it only takes like 30 minutes, and you end up with an operating system that can be guaranteed to not have weird software implants installed, other than the ones Microsoft or whoever provides your OS, put in there?[/QUOTE]

SM Entertainment put together a new kpop girl group recently.
They had to take down their first music video, and make some edits.

Who the hell thought it was a good idea to put that shit into a music video?

On some machines thats how long it takes for me to compile my kernel.
To get my Linux installation to the point where I want it to be, it takes me around 2 hours of installing and configuring shit.
I am currently working on a script to automate all my install and config stuff. Hopefully this will save me some time and headaches.
sux 4 u huh

Korean music video full of newspaper articles about the "Nips" getting nuked?
That's a pretty big no-no over there.

Where is that in the new version? I don't understand. To me the new version seems better.

If it got fixed, then I don't see the problem. He made it seem like they updated a video and it got ruined or something.

Not only that, you have to set it up again and just faff with installing your programs.
Even with moving to new hardware i just sysprep generalized the machine, moved the drive over, installed the new drivers and activated.
Dammit BRT.

I'm saying that someone was retarded enough to throw newspaper articles of their neighbours getting fucking nuked, and some poor bastard in the PR department is probably considering suicide because of that.
Also, since they had to reupload the video, they lost a bit over 3 million views, which is pretty major for them, apparently MV view statistics are a big part of the numbers game that happens in kpop.
Also, there's the smoke with a plane in the same scene, so some people got upset and yelled 9/11, but that's not major, to be honest.
If you're going to associate planes and smoke with a horrible terrorist attack, over a decade after the fact, that's your malfunction.

Wow I didn't realise there were LGA1156 i7's. I thought that socket was just for i5's and i3's.

arch linux is a pain to install
[QUOTE=Havolis;45581784]arch linux is a pain to install[/QUOTE]
The basic install is easy after 2-3 times of doing it.
The most painful thing is if some hardware isn't fully supported and stuff.
Nvidia Optimus gives me fucking nightmares on linux.
Took me 2 days to plan my Arch install, and an hour to debug my plan and get it done.
Mostly 2 days because I kept putting it off for 2 days, and then finally spent 2 hours on the Wiki.
It's been a damn good install though.
It's gone through like 30-40+ kernels with me, as I tested them out, and at one point, I dd'd the entire SSD over to my desktop over SSH, ran Ubuntu for a week or so, and then dd'd it back again.
I've easily had like, 3-4 different spots where I haven't updated the install in a week or two, so you end up with like 150MB of new packages to download and install, so it takes a good 5 minutes to update when you do that, but it's never broken on me.
Arch has actually broken for me less times than Debian, so far.
And yet I can't install Arch even with a script to help me.
[QUOTE=MasterFen006;45582273]And yet I can't install Arch even with a script to help me.[/QUOTE]
I wrote my plan down in markdown and put in GitHub.
[url]https://github.com/TheNikomo/arch_install/blob/master/INSTALL.md[/url]
It's pretty easy to follow. I think there's a few things I forgot to add in there, after noticing I personally needed them after install, but it was nothing major.
[QUOTE=MasterFen006;45582273]And yet I can't install Arch even with a script to help me.[/QUOTE]
which part of the installation do you struggle with? I believe I said so in the linux thread too, but I'd stay away from scripts. in my experience with installing arch, it has always been different when I've changed GPU, CPU, added SSD, replaced SSD, etc. an install script wouldn't be able to get past an error if it should happen, so it's better to do it manually.
Gonna throw in my Install plan aswell:

I do a full upgrade my arch server (lol) every 6 months or so w/o reading the news (for fun). Only time it "broke" was the upgrade to systemd.
I never read the news before updating. I've surprisingly never had any issues either

Really? It used to be really poorly supported but nowadays Primus / Bumblebee / whatever work fine.
