Antivirus is pretty much just baby mode for technophobic grandmas who think they're going to blow up their PC if they press the wrong button. If I get a Virus it means I did it pretty much on purpose at this point. good god is this what Anti-vaccers sound like? Yes. It actually is what they sound like. Same sense of superiority. Same 'won't happen to me' attitude. To be fair though, having a computer virus is nothing compared to letting your child die of measles. Also if you're calling people plebs you gotta have that air of superiority mate.

There's pretty much no reason not to use it, except if you're using a dinosaur/toaster. Also sometimes I'm just really lazy and turn on the music on Youtube cause it's sitting there. You can find new stuff if you frequent some uploaders, which is pretty much my only real excuse to do this. But there's also soundcloud for that I guess. |

Fullmetal89 said: Just having to use iTunes when I plug my phone in my computer is enough of a nightmare to keep me as far from Apple as possible. If it wasn't because I love their phones, I would never use their products. I had to use a Mac Desktop during my physics courses in College because the physics department is full of retards and thought it was a good idea to buy Macs. Anyway it was a fucking nightmare. I remember I spent a good 5 mins trying to figure out how the hell you right click on that PoS OS. Seriously, I hate Leopard. It's like they took Linux Ubuntu stripped everything that makes it amazing and then they sell you this bastardized retarded version of the OS. funnily enough the mac os was created for stupid people who can't figure out how to use windows os. apple products are supposed to be more user friendly. i use both a mac and a pc and so i've got no problems with either |

I use MPC-HD for music, mainly because of FLAC support, but I think getting music in flac is worth it as your only using up roughly around 10x the hard drive space as a 128kb MP3 song. Another thing I absolutely hate, is when someone purchases $400 beats or something and listens to awfully compressed mp3s from iTunes. Those people have no idea what audio quality is. As well, you see someone wasting their tying doing right-click, copy, right-click, paste a million times. Windows Media Player needs at least ogg vorbis, flac and mkv support, as well as the option to change audio streams to make it worth using. They also need to fix the server execution failed bug. |

| i would lol if someone actually used their expensive equipment to listen to youtube songs what server execution bug? *never used WMP for years* been using foobar for a long time, mostly because of the neat interface and gapless playback WMP will supposedly support flac right off the bat on windows 10. supposedly. |

I also laugh at stupid people who buy early access games with horrible bugs and glitches that would even make Satan cry. Then they bitch out and demand their money back.

| Just a couple of years ago, I happened to see the desktop of one of my friends. A bunch of us had been having a good time and getting pretty drunk, so while our host was half passed out on the couch, I snuck into his room to engage in the age-old tradition of replacing his wallpaper with a supersized meatspin.gif or dailydose.gif. But as I moved the mouse and disengaged the screensaver, I looked upon his current wallpaper. I wasn't sure how to react as first, for some reason my mind couldn't quite grasp what my eyes were seeing, but the longer I looked at that hideous, unwholesome sight, the more it dawned upon my utterly repulsive and unnatural it was, akin to some unfinished, antediluvian horror from beyond the darkest mists of time, a terrible sight not meant for the eyes of any sane, civilised mind. I panicked and ran screaming out of the apartment, and never spoke to the man again. Even to this day, I find myself waking up sweating, heart racing, as I recall that horrible sight. For his was a wallpaper only in the most macabre and mocking sense, a small, pixellated image, tiled innumerable times across the vastness of his monitor! |

Hiding extensions of known file types. How do people even use a computer like that?! Here ya go "your favorite song.mp3.exe" have fun! @Caim fuck Rainmeter, it's disgusting and uses CPU/GPU every time it needs to update a meter. If I had a second monitor I would be able to justify it, but having only one means I will never see it for 99% of the time. And this is coming from someone who used to make his own meters and used the program for 2 years before coming to this conclusion. |
