<0> I just told the guy to get XP Home (he dont need pro), and I'll fix it then
<0> wlfshmn, its bios, as well as OS support for it
<1> wlfshmn: yes but the OS can't address past 137gb
<0> but, if I get XP on it, it will byp*** the bios, and go directly to the drive for the size
<2> wheee, 67 updates
<3> *nod*
<2> Steakk!
<0> Nanuq
<4> Steakk: Ah. Then inform him that MS stopped supporting WindowsME a long time ago, and modern hardware is unable to be used to it's full extent.
<0> anyways, time for me to shut his machine down, and call it a day
<5> win2k will support a 320GB HD
<0> he dont need 2k though...XP home _SHOULD_ suffice
<3> 2k uses less memory though
<4> Steakk: "July 11, 2006 will bring a close to Extended Support for Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, and Windows Me as part of the Microsoft Lifecycle Policy. Microsoft will retire public and technical support, including security updates, by this date."
<2> Jostein: not true
<2> Jostein: if you tweak it, it takes about the same
<2> Jostein: and, I find, performs better on the exact same hardware
<3> Nanuq: with proper tweaking Im sure you can bring XP down to about the same memory footprint
<2> Jostein: turn off prefetch for one
<3> Nanuq: but with win2k you dont NEED to do that tweaking
<2> Jostein: but, but that doesn't stop me from trying
<1> just put linux and get vmplayer and run windowsme in it... he'll never know
<2> s/but/yeah/
<5> 95/98/ME/NT have all be dropped
<2> dogbert2: good
<3> Nanuq: Im just saying most people like not having to do stuff they dont need to do :P
<2> Jostein: feh
<3> Nanuq: I may fool around at home, but at work I like just getting stuff done
<2> wlfshmn: I wonder what it'd like to be the guy in charge of 9x updates
<2> wlfshmn: everyone probably feels pity, yet generally dislikes you
<1> Nanuq: but if you're that guy you only would have worked 1, 2 days at most a month... the rest of the time you just sat around with open holes
<2> avenger-x: that last part sounds disturbing
<4> now... where did I put those sg1 episodes I havn't watched yet..
<2> wlfshmn: /tmp, and you've since rebooted
<3> wlfshmn: check the open holes :P
<6> heh
<6> why can't xp ask for the cd key at the *beginning* of the installation
<6> looks like nowayout found the way
<3> jlgaddis_: it does if you install from a running copy of windows
<3> like the system is in GUI mode already
<6> Jostein: that'd be fine except i used dban to blow away everything that was already on it :P
<3> hehe
<3> you CAN do clean installs from a GUI-started install, you know :P
<6> well i sold this laptop, so i want it to be *really* clean =)
<3> ah
<3> they'll have to pay extra to have it prefilled with porn, eh?
<6> exactly
<7> aegis-virus-scanner epiphany-browser glame gnome-alsamixer
<3> whitecap: interesting ;)
<7> gah, sloppy paste
<7> Jostein: 50 odd packages got removed last update, made a list so i can reinstall needed ones
<3> whitecap: ah
<8> jlgaddis_: Can you make me moderator on quotes.l.n?
<9> hi
<8> sacrine: you ****
<10> why does sacrine ****?
<8> dunno yet
<8> I'm sure I'll figure it out soon
<9> I believe in you PolarWolf
<1> PolarWolf should be a doctor, gretting newborns as they arrive in the world
<11> haha
<8> I have long enough fingers to be a gynaecologist, that's for sure.
<12> ewwwwww
<8> flexible too, *nudge* *nudge* *wink*
<10> ewh
<9> short int penis;
<13> err, no. short nibble penis;
<3> I didnt know object types allowed spaces in any decent languages :P
<14> think about having like, 85 year old patients that need some work on their gynae's
<3> lets rollback this conversation to the point before PolarWolf went nasty :P
<9> that would be my motivation ;)
<8> Comet: I'd be a picky doctor
<10> great idea jostein
<6> PolarWolf: yeah, one sec
<3> I like pancakes. Someone make me pancakes.
<10> whats your favorite pancake
<10> ?
<3> I like them plain but properly grease
<3> nothing more boring than dry pancackes
<3> greasy
<15> apparently I have 10Mbit download
<16> but time to let the youngsters do it.
<15> 11
<10> I prefer them with apple and sugar and sugarsirop or whatever you call that
<17> PW went nasty?
<17> wow, and I missed it all...
<18> *nod*
<3> I just get some sugar on, and roll them into a roll :)
<17> guess he's trying to take my place as nasty #linux chanop of the week :P
<15> Jostein: http://www3.kfwebs.net/speedtest01.png
<8> Revenger: Heh, you probably have enough to do as it is
<10> pancakes are best eaten in a role yes
<8> mikaa: You're not a graphics designer, are you?
<10> no I'm not
<10> why would you think that?
<3> PolarWolf: she is female. that is enough to tell if a site looks like **** to the general public or not :P
<8> no reason
<8> Jostein: *snort*
<6> t-minus 4 hours 13 minutes
<3> jlgaddis_: slow machine, eh?
<6> Jostein: no, i meant until the afc championship game starts
<10> but ofcourse I have a good taste yes ;)
<12> blech rugby
<3> jlgaddis_: ah
<5> what about the nfc game?
<6> hmm, i gotta ****, bbiaf
<12> I don't get rugby
<3> I dont get most sports
<8> it's the real men version of football
<3> Only "sport" I find remotely interesting is martial arts
<8> the american variety, that is
<10> you dont get why it would be fun to watch jostein? or you dont get why it would be fun to do?
<12> american football is a bastardised version of rugby
<3> mikaa: it simply doesnt interest -me-. Others can do as they like :P
<10> awh
<8> You get some buffed up steroid hunks into some body armour, play some form of rugby and declare it a new sport
<10> I like swimming and running and sailing and skating
<10> not to watch though
<15> Jostein: and now its back to normal :)
<3> which is very much my general attitude to anything I dont care about. I dont care, others can do what they feel like as long as it doesnt affect me
<19> exactly. they're too sissy to play without plastic armour and helmets.
<3> K_F: what is?
<10> how nice of you jostein ;)
<15> Jostein: http://www3.kfwebs.net/speedtest01.png vs http://www3.kfwebs.net/speedtest02.png
<3> K_F: kah
<8> I'm contemplating to go swimming regualrly
<15> Jostein: svein-helge got > 8Mbit too
<15> and he has a 2Mbit ordinarily
<10> me too polarwolf ;) I did do it on a regular basis but since christmas thats gone..
<8> mikaa: Last time I was in a pool must be at least ten years ago
<8> I used to like it a lot
<8> probably longer
<10> haha
<8> it's better for my back than running, probably
<10> so you dont even know if you can still swim..
<8> I wouldn't worry about that
<10> think so.. running gives the most injurys and swimming the lessest
<3> K_F: hmmm. My internet ****s by default, so I doubt Ill get my 3.5mbps (or 4 or whatever its supposed to be these days)
<8> least
<10> ah damn ;) knew it wasnt right
<8> I knew, that's why I corrected
<10> thanks
<8> I'm not all ***hole, yaknow :)
