It's been long enough since we've had a classic BSOD.

LOL Best BSOD ever
-
If they used Vista they would be red, which would be in China's spirit wouldn't it?
-
True it would be.
-
Thing is from personal experience: Vista never crashes.

Are you fucking high?
Not that Vista is as buggy as people may think, but I've had my fair share of BSoDs. Heck, a lot more than I had with XP. The only reason I keep it is because I'm too lazy to hunt down XP drivers for my hardware.

I'm using Vista and it is fine. Learn to use your computer properly, and XP hardly crashes.

I'm sure you wouldn't mind elaborating on that. It's a pretty bold statement that requires a bit of clarification.
-
Actually, he is somewhat right. If you maintain the system it will run rather smooth. With XP at least. I don't know about Vista.
-
Lol, that image is a classic.
As for Windows and crashing - as long as you format / reinstall once every month or so, I agree Windows can run smoothly.
-
You people really need some computer skills if you need to reinstall that often.
-
Again, be specific - what skills are "they" lacking? And when I say "they", I mean the large number of Windows users, in home, business, and education settings, who experience Windows component crashes, Windows system crashes, and/or general program crashes due to faulty system calls on a fairly regular basis (10+ times per year).

I'm not sure, but I assume: knowledge of maintenance, and knowledge of shitty software. If Linux supported installing most third party software it would have the exact same problem after you download all the shit from Download.com
-
Oh, master, please tell me which software is shitty, and which software is good, and how to tell the difference between them with a level of consistency that will have a positive effect on my overall uptime.
-
If it says "FREE" its probably shitty.
-
Oh. Guess I should uninstall Firefox, Thunderbird, and AVG.
Do you know of any Windows-based text editors that have the capability of showing line numbers that aren't free? I don't want to accidentally download a perfectly good shitty one!
-
If it says "FREE" its probably shitty.
Would that be free as in FOSS or beer?

Heard of vim and emacs for Windows?
-
No. I bet most other people haven't either.
How much do those cost?
-
TextPad if you want to buy something.

Those tend to be software problems, and do not crash the entire system. Usually just the kind where the program closes and Windows asks if you want to submit an error report (which can be turned off)

Beer, I was talking about Download.com and all that shit. I don't consider anything free about Open Source, its no special freedom to me, its just open source.

Those are pretty common. Get this: on FC9 VLC manages to hang the entire system message bus, and to restart it means killing my entire session. Fucking wonderful.

Doesn't look like one to me. Just a random guy.

XD IM JUS TOTALLY RAAANDOM.

In other words, use a system that PROFESSES to be multitasking to only run one app at a time and reboot before starting the next one.
That is the ONLY way to ensure that M$ CRAP does not crash since it still does not know how to clean up other programs' memory leaks properly!
-
I've rarely seen memory leaks in Windows in the last two or so years.

you really are talking shit. I don't consider anything free about Open Source, its no special freedom to me, its just open source.
you don't seem to consider much. you know, for years i really did think you had some point to your existence, but i'm beginning to think you're just a more sophisticated version of fishcorn, where you actually don't value other people at all, choosing to view life as one sordid series of opportunities for childish pisstakes.
-

Wtf? Fishcorn is Cuntardo's sockpuppet.

That's Cuntardo for you.

I have to support Open Source or I am subhuman? Strange view there.
