That's not an answer. Perhaps you smoked a little too much this morning?

I grew up in Holland.

I never smoked Tobacco (unless it was rolled into a joint), but I have smoked weed. There are 3 shops within a 10 minute walk from my house where you can buy it. It is not much of a taboo, if at all. It is not something I normally do though. I just become drowsy which is not the greatest of highs. I really prefer not to smoke tabacco, or drink alcohol or smoke weed. Though if I had to pick one, it would probably be the latter.

Depends on the state you are in, but federally, no. Until it becomes federal law across the country, it's only allowed in states that either allow medical or recreational usage.

It's a weird policy. People may exploit it and turn them into some bad, very bad. In Vietnam, weed is strictly prohibited. Buying / selling weed may face  2-7 years in prison. Even worse, buying / selling more than 5kg of weed resin may face the death penalty.

not that often. last time was last year.
(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.

Windows 7 forever!!!!!

Or at least until Microsoft stop issuing patches for it :))

We only recent migrated the last person off Windows XP at work.

Now we have only two on Windows 8.

The rest are running Windows 7.

Next is to try to coordinate the Microsoft Office updates :))
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Smart people, never jump on the so-called latest is greatest fiasco, because when it comes to Microsoft the older stuff is generally more reliable compared to anything linked to Windows 8.

It makes your skin crawl even thinking about upgrading a brand new PC with this gawd awful OS.  Microsoft should give up trying to make any further OS's because they have failed thus far.

Windows 3.1x (1992) - Good
Windows 95 (1995) - Mixed bag, at the beginning it sucked
Windows 98 (1998) - Good
Windows ME (2000) - Sucked (hard)
Windows XP (2001) - Good
Windows Vista (2006) - Sucked although not as hard as ME
Windows 7 (2009) - Good
Windows 8 (2012) - Sucked although improved a bit later on
Windows 9 - ???

My hopes are high for Windows 9.

Dear Windows,
A desktop with a monitor is not a tablet.

I mean seriously... why do I need an internet explorer that runs in it's own environment separate from my desktop and is poorly scaled.

Also your windows store sucks.

Thanks,

I have hopes and assumptions that these issues will be fixed with Windows 9. Why else would they push out a new version so quickly after putting out 8? The only people who don't want 8 are the people using 7 (or older) and don't want to have the problems you listed in a desktop machine...


...but from the leaks Win9 looks pretty promising :)

7 is the ONLY operating system of note from Microcrap and it looks like staying that way for some time to come.  Win9 has that same propaganda-stain applied onto it like what Win8 had and you know full well how that went.......

If microsoft actually made a reliable DESKTOP only operating system then I may change my mind about them but that doesn't look like changing, the so-called 9 version still has that foul Metro Spew-Crap - bundled inside.  Please ditch Metro Spew away then businesses may actually start buying new hardware with their OS attached, once again.

I've no idea what your talking about.
But Windows 9 looks to use Metro style of Windows in a manner that makes sense for a desktop OS. Having those live tiles in the start menu is a pretty good idea becasue it will mean that you get more information on display and can do more with it. Atm in Win7 all you get is a bunch of icons you can simply click on or change the ordering off...

I have hope for Win9 as I think that you can work live tiles into making sense for the desktop, you just have to be smart about it. Windows 8 wasn't smart.

That I agree with. It seems stupid to not delete irrelevant parts of a quote/irrelevant quotes in quotes.

Purely laziness or plain oversight, I believe. Not necessarily stupidity. I always try to make the effort, even on my phone, where it's not always so easy.

That "such as me" bit totally makes that post :D
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

i dont really get the metro hate
i think it's fine

It's fine if you're using a mobile phone BUT we're all forced to have that abortion on our hard drives for no logical reason  >:( .  Wish you could permanently remove Metro without it ever taking up valuable space on any SSD.

Metro is for phones keep it that way, but never on any desktop PC.
