#35590 Windows 8

Posted by Chrissaysay on 02 January 2013 - 09:18 PM in Software

I used it some in my operating systems class. I don't like it at all. It's all blocky and...tablet-y. If I wanted a tablet interface, I would buy a tablet. As a PC user, I found it annoying and tedious to use. I didn't use it very much though, so maybe I just didn't give it enough time to grow on me...but regardless I'm going to stick with Windows 7 for now. From the little experience I did have with the OS, I wouldn't doubt the validity of all the negative responses it's getting.

For tablet users it might be awesome/better. I do not own a tablet, however, and am not interested in owning one.

#29923 Thank god for Sublime Text 2

Posted by Chrissaysay on 20 November 2012 - 10:40 PM in Software

I looooove Sublime Text [2].

For awhile I was thinking I'd buy it, but the trial has the same functionality as the paid version so whatever. I can deal with a pop up every now and then it it'll save me &60. I have a portable version of it too :>

#26485 Need Help with Symbolic Links in Windows [7]

Posted by Chrissaysay on 21 October 2012 - 01:32 PM in Software

I've started using symbolic links on my computer. This is mostly so that I can sync folders/files outside of my Dropbox and Skydrive folders. However, even though I know how to create symbolic links and have already created several, I really want answers to some questions before I go any further...

My Questions


1. Many guides I read emphasized that one should never ever create symbolic links within symbolic links because it can cause "looping"...but what is looping exactly? I can't find a definitive answer. Everyone is just like..."Looping is a very very bad thing that you don't want so avoid doing anything that can cause it." :\

2. Can looping occur with any kind of symbolic link--soft, hard, junctions...?

3. What constitutes a symbolic link within a symbolic link?* I can't find a straight answer about this either.

5. If I were to accidentally create a loop, is it correctable? How difficult would it be to fix/remove a loop?

6. What kind of symbolic link would be best for what I am trying to do with Dropbox and Skydrive? I am currently using junctions, but I think I am going to use soft links instead of junctions/hard links because soft links apparently don't take up storage space in Dropbox or Skydrive. Is there any drawback to using soft symbolic links instead of junctions [in this situation]? I don't think it matters, but I could be wrong.

7. If you can, please give examples of situations where using a particular type of symbolic link would work best / better / be preferable. Like, "use a soft link if you want to do this: _____" or even "don't use a hard link if you want to do this:_____" and please explain why.

*My Theories


This section is not necessary to read. It's just my pondering/rambling typed out--It helps me organize thoughts.
If you answer Question #3 please elaborate as much as I have in the following "spoilers".

#22969 Things that rustle your jimmies

Posted by Chrissaysay on 23 September 2012 - 10:25 AM in Everything Else

When a professor doesn't have our tests graded by the next class period. Everyone in my accounting class showed up because we thought we would get our tests back but he didn't have them >.> He's an awful teacher--nice guy, but sucks at explaining shit--so half of us wouldn't have been there if we didn't think he would give back our tests. He actually commented on it. "Oh wow. Looks like everyone is here today. Haven't had that since the first day of class..." NO SHIT SHERLOCK. I could tell from day one that I wasn't going to get anything out of coming to class. I just read the textbook and do the homework usually.

#22965 Well...

Posted by Chrissaysay on 23 September 2012 - 10:14 AM in Everything Else

Lol omg. We actually watched this in my Networking class on Thursday.

We were testing our version of flash..So my professor went to YouTube and this was on the front page and he was like, "What in the world is this one here...?" We laughed and told him to click and find out, promising it was safe for school. He watched about half of it before saying "Goll-y that's enough of that."

Was very lol-worthy.
