I just signed up for a 3rd year math course on combinatorial designs. RIP social life.

That's really good, my brother just did it as well.
Wow, I never new that there are 2.5" harddisks have different sizes.
7mm, 9mm and 12.5mm hdd's. I want to send very rude words to the person who thought this was a good idea.

Now I gotta travel trough the entire country to replace it.
Well, there's yet another fuckup in the school computers.
When we do tests on the computers, we use an extremely locked down account which prevents us from accessing the internet or flash drives (no drives show up in computer). They overlooked the fact that in computer, the little arrow still shows all the drives, [B]even the shared one that anyone can dump shit on [/B] :v:
Playing the OG guildwars for a bit. It's so depressing seeing how empty it is now that everyone moved to GW2. I spent so much of my time in GW back in it's prime. :\
I don't get the deal with windows' font rendering. I think it's fine.

Nothing here, I don't have any items on the workshop either
there's clearly a difference between the two, but I never seem to notice unless I see side by side comparisons. I don't really see the bad in it

What paltform on each of those screenies? I see the top one on Win 8.1
I see the bottom one, but that's because I'm IE. I was used to Chrome, but I have gotten used to the bottom one and now I think it's more pleasant. I think it all comes down to preference, and the screen you're using.
[editline]27th August 2014[/editline]
Just to clarify, I'm not IE. I'm just using it.

Well...
My Windows install broke because I transferred my harddisk from a "Thinkpad T430" to "another Thinkpad T430 with same specs"
Fuck you WIndows, Why do you make my life so much harder?!
[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;45814583]
(why the fuck did chrome do that by default wtf)[/QUOTE]
Better performance maybe? I have no idea.
I feel directwrite looks better on high PPI displays than ClearType does. After all, ClearType was designed for early LCDs if I'm not mistaken.
I already got used to it. Facepunch seems to be the only site where the rendering looks really bad.
I'm gonna try it on my Zenbook.
[editline]27th August 2014[/editline]
It does look better on a high DPI screen.

The web app I work on requires HTTPS, for security reasons. In prod, we have actual, expensive certs, but on our test server, we use a self-signed cert.
I have tried, many times, to get that cert added as an exception. It never works, because somehow a cert for "*.companydev.com" isn't valid for "me.project.companydev.com". So every time I start working, I have to tell it to ignore the SSL "error".
This new update? It hid the "go to the fucking website anyways" button in a small link under another small link. So now it takes about twice as long to actually get to MY OWN SITE.
I did find a config flag to use the old warning page at least, but I still can't fix the actual cert issue. I also found a command-line flag that can completely disable all SSL warnings, but a) that's a bad idea in general, and b) IT PUTS UP ANOTHER ERROR BAR SAYING "YOU'RE USING AN UNSAFE COMMAND-LINE ARGUMENT", which rather defeats the purpose.
Any ideas?

Yet on our school they do it the right way, straight to the point.
I did my exams on a school laptop, and they simply wiped all of the network drivers, assuming that because the WLAN indicator was still on.
But they didn't block flash drives because you'd need to save your document to that USB drive so you can go with a surveillant as they so stubbornly call it to the administration so one of the employees can print it, then you'd have to sign it to indicate it's yours.

Also, about Chrome having a weird font, Google updated Chrome to 64 bit.

I've been on Chrome X64 for months, and it's amazing.
Also, idk about you guys, but I find DirectWrite an improvement to ClearType.

I had some old BBS backup I picked up at a sci-fi convention years ago (on zip disks no less) and it was all from the 2400-9600 baud modem era. The images are between 500 bytes and 8K.

I kinda like the idea of exploring an old as fuck computer and discover it's dark secrets and contents of the files left by the previous owner.
