If you buy shoes from a drug dealer, do you know what they are laced with?

If you try to buy shoes from a drug-dealer, you'll find out whether or not yours are good for running.

I bought shoes from a drug dealer. I don't know what he laced them with but I've been tripping all day.

If you buy them, make sure they are NOT krokodil shoes.
Don't google krokodil if you're on your lunch break, you have been warned.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

SpiderOak is a cloud backup "solution", but it's not. It use to work sorta, but it's to the point now that it's non-functional almost completely.
- It will "upload" forever with out uploading anything.
- It will download but only partially.
- It's "restore" when it works but not to the target directory you specify but to the root with a directory named (1), or perhaps (2).
Arg!!! trying to recover my stuff to rehost on another provider, and I can't. Email "support" only, but they don't respond.
Giving "JustCloud" a whirl.
Note to self! Only pay by the month, and always do cloud restores from time to time to see if vendor isn't about to Peter Princible then go chapter 11.

It seems like everyone is sticking to Windows 7.
???
WHY???
I'm now on Windows 10, it works, it's stable, all the PC's at my company, including 20 devs, all use 10 now... NO ONE that I know really wants Win 7..
I don't get it... What's so fascinating about it???

Some Luddites are happy with the way v7 does it and get stressed out when something they spent an inordinate amount of time getting used to is moved/changed/removed.
That's my guess anyway.

Man, Visual Studio 6.0 is awesome!! Have you checked out Visual Source Safe? It's all I'll ever need.

Do you remember how VS2010 was despised and how VS2008 was considered to be just fine?
Do you remember how VS2012/13 was despised and how V2010 was considered to be just fine?
And now you can see the same thing happening with V2015.

No. I got stressed out with all the garbage they wanted to shove down my throat on the way to Win 8 and all the code that I was supposed to throw away. Since then I do my best not to depend on Mickeysoft and their next great ideas as much.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"No, from Canada."

People are afraid of change. It makes them think and people don't like to think more than they have to.
As for me, I don't have it installed yet, but when the time comes I'll embrace it (or move to a Mac or whatever). No need to let Win7 become the next WinXP. Who wants to get stale and crusty?

Believe me, if there is one thing the guys at Mickeysoft's marketing fear, then it's people who start thinking too much about their products.

Well none of us. Unfortunately, for some of it is more a question of "how the hell did I get stale and crusty?".

Totally agree. I did that myself actually. Better late than never when getting out of it though.

Not necessarily. I like change, but it has to be a change for the better. I moved to Mac after using Windows 8, so clearly not trying to avoid "thinking more than I have to".
Personally, I've got Windows 10 on my own development machine (used solely for .NET development). It seems okay (only had it a day or two and haven't used it that much), but there's no stand out "Whoa! How did I survive without this?" feature that sets it apart from Windows 7 or 8. In contrast, every release of OSX always seems to have something new that improves the user experience.
How do you know so much about swallows? Well, you have to know these things when you're a king, you know.

Then you're not what the type of person I'm referring to. I'm referring to the people that learn something once and then stop. The guys that are still acting like they live in the 60s using COBOL.
Not liking Win10 doesn't mean you don't think. Sticking with WinXP or Win7 until you die means that.

I've only updated because I'm a .NET developer (by day ) and want to keep up with the latest developments. I haven't upgraded to VS2015 yet, but will be shortly (that does have some compelling new features).
For most user, that's not really a reason to go for it. Like I said, there's no (at least as far as I can see at the moment) compelling feature that makes it worth upgrading for most people.
Added to which, quite a few people (myself included) have run into driver issues during the upgrade.

In my case, it's because "Get Windows 10" says "We're validating Windows 10 for your PC."
In other words: "you gotta wait your turn, sucker!"
