  • I think it was Windows 2000 I had to install on a laptop for someone…

    This was 20+ years ago, so I dont remember the details…but i think there was like 11-13 floppies for the install that I had at the time? All of them OEM floppies… I think from microsoft, but maybe from the laptop OEM?.. and every time I ran the installer another disk would fail, and i’d have to go online and find that disk image and burn it to a replacement floppy. It was the worst OS install experience of my entire life, lol. I think by the time I was done I had replaced all but the first oem disk.









  • Linked in is basically facebook for weirdo “80 hour workweeks should be a minimum, thats how I show my dedication!” types.

    The allegations don’t entirely surprise me, either. I find it hard to believe people the kind of people desperate enough to come on his show, would act like that without an incentive of being encouraged, or just being wholesale fake actors.

    Wouldnt surprise me if the accusations of being a right wing troll prove accurate, with how they keep seemingly trying to get people who look like what right wingers think liberals are, just to scream at them and denegrate them while they act, according to script, flippantly.








  • They were never obsolete because, as it says on the sticker (that no one on the internet can ever seem to be bothered to read), that you can replace it every 2 years for new, more modern system for only 99 bucks.

    and quite frankly, thats a fucking steal, considering what PC prices were like back in the late 90s, and with how fast technology was advancing.
