[img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/795329/Pictures/me/screnshot/eagames.PNG[/img] Why can't EA standardize their start menu shortcuts (I know that I could have avoided this by simply editing the line on game installation but who the fuck stops to check where it's gonna place the start menu folders)
[QUOTE=Zezibesh;29269726](I know that I could have avoided this by simply editing the line on game installation but who the fuck stops to check where it's gonna place the start menu folders)[/QUOTE] I do, instead of buttomsmashing next. you never know if they've included some shovelware where you need to untick it's checkbox to avoid getting that garbage installed.
I don't exactly buttonsmash, but the start menu shortcut page never has anything meaningful [editline]18th April 2011[/editline] And besides, they were game installations and those hardly come with anything worse than EADM
[QUOTE=MacTrekkie;29264073]if you compare the original Macintosh to the Lisa there's a gigantic dick move when it comes to accessibility. The Lisa took about a minute to completely disassemble while the Mac took a LOT longer.[/QUOTE] With the Lisa costing $10000, would expect it to be relatively easy to service and upgrade compared to the $2500 Macintosh which was not expandable internally.

That was a real dick move by the designers. First, it was purple. What the fuck. Then it seemed to be made for some kind of retarded alien with hands in the shape of discs. Then a wave of mice that had only one button, and there were like 3 of those or some shit. then there was the fucking mighty mouse, and despite taking years for Apple to work out 2 - button mice, it still had that stupid-ass scroll wheel that just broke automatically and shit, but now you've rolled out what would come out of a mouse's vagina if it got fucked by a trackpad. The Magic Mouse. Ok, yeah cool, it'll impress the roomates and shit, BUT if I'm holding down the mouse button and happen to let my finger slip, OH LOOK all the shit that was on my screen is gone, thanks a fuck, Apple. Look, just give in, make a [b]CHEAP RELIABLE and NORMAL 2-BUTTON MOUSE.[/b] Yours sincerely, Pissed off Mac User
[QUOTE=RubberFruit;29277917]thanks a fuck[/QUOTE] Amazing, I'm adding that one to my everyday vocabulary.

The thing i hate about the mighty mouse is your can only click one side at a time. You can't suspend objects in garrys mod
[QUOTE=Van-man;29269828]I do, instead of buttomsmashing next. you never know if they've included some shovelware where you need to untick it's checkbox to avoid getting that garbage installed.[/QUOTE] That is another asshole design move, where they put in some toolbar or some shit with the installation., and have it ticked by default.

Right angle SATA connectors on motherboards in a tight case... Makes it impossible to plug those fuckers in when you want to install a new drive.
[QUOTE=gman003-main;29253880]Whoever programmed the power management on my laptop needs to be SHOT. I haven't figured out whether it's the OS's fault or some bloatware power manager Asus added, but whoever did needs a 7.62mm lobotomy. It works just fine, most of the time. I can switch between "high performance", "power saver" and "balanced", and can tweak each of them. It also changes when I unplug, and when I plug back in. HOWEVER, there is one thing I absolutely hate. It only detects changes in plug status when it's completely on. If I sleep the computer, then unplug it, it not only refuses to notice that I've switched from mains to battery power, but whatever is in charge of changing screen brightness completely crashes, so it's stuck on whatever brightness setting it was at when I slept it. Since that's normally "full power", which drains my battery in about half an hour, I end up toggling the entire backlight whenever I don't immediately need to see the screen. Since I usually just listen to my music collection (still haven't found an affordable MP3 player that can fit 26GB and rising), that's tolerable, but only barely.[/QUote] get a first gen ipod or one of the others that has a mini hard drive in them, i've heard of 120 gb ones
[QUOTE=jaredanand;29282191]Right angle SATA connectors on motherboards in a tight case... Makes it impossible to plug those fuckers in when you want to install a new drive.[/QUOTE] I can beat that. SATA connectors on a "enthusiast" motherboard that are conveniently located, so they're blocked by the cooler on your gfx card. Thankfully I had a couple of SATA cables with angled connectors that JUST fit into the SATA ports without touching said cooler.

Although I avoid iPods because I absolutely REFUSE to install iTunes. I've heard about a port of Linux to the iPod Classic, is that any good for just loading and playing mp3s?

[QUOTE=wingless;29285972]He has terminal cancer, He was supposed to die last week or something.[/QUOTE] Rumors everywhere. He has pancreatic cancer (and has for a while) and he's survived so far.
Even so, chances are slim. It's pretty much only a matter of time.
[QUOTE=Contag;29286652]Even so, chances are slim. It's pretty much only a matter of time.[/QUOTE] It's a matter of time until everyone dies :v: If he said what he said more politely and didn't state it like it's set in stone, I wouldn't have cared nearly as much.
[QUOTE=wingless;29285972]He has terminal cancer, He was supposed to die last week or something.[/QUOTE] This has never been confirmed. As far as I can remember, the only "source" the article saying that mentioned was a guy who claimed he saw Steve Jobs get out of a cancer specialized clinic. Somehow, with this information the magazine guessed : 1. What cancer he had 2. The treatment 3. The time he had to live
