        blechx: if you're on linux, you can install from CVS and get something going now.

      • ruaok
        follow the picard instructions.
      • luks
        he can install CVS version also on windows :p
      • ruaok
        you'll need libtp from CVS and picard from CVS.
      • luks: true, but there are VERY FEW sane people who do that.
      • blechx
        yea, i read that :)
      • ruaok
        Its a massive amount of work.
      • blechx

      • _mo
        I don't know..
      • what *is* it exept for (unicode) thats so bad about ME anyway?

      • DJKC
        unstable - has a tendancy to leak memory and need to be rebooted after just a few days or weeks. 2k and xp are both easy to keep up for 6-12 months at a time.
      • only supports fat and fat32, can't use nicer file systems like ntfs
      • mo_Zzz
        these are all things I don't Know/care about/need
      • luks
        you don't need stable system? :)
      • DJKC
        yes, that's fine if you don't, but when you say that it's better than xp just because you don't care about the features that make it worse seems a bit silly
      • mo_Zzz
        I am sorry that because for soem reason I don't understand, my system works fro me when it is betrowed within the entire universe s beign crap that I have to feel ashamed and useless for somethign that does actually work
      • my system *is* stable
      • surprisingly stabel
      • stable
      • maybe XP is more stable
      • I don't know
      • Shepard
        natta mo
      • mo_Zzz
        the thing is, it also has the stupid userscatalog and settings, you have to register and a bunch of crap that makes it harder to tweak it the way *I* liek it
      • Shepard
        luks: thanks for the votes :)
      • luks
        no problem :)
      • DJKC shrugs
      • lulla
        lulla is now known as coite
      • mo_Zzz
        if the XP user interface was more 'one person orientated' I'd probably agree with you
      • DJKC
        no reason to feel ashamed, but attacking something that's in general a better product just always strikes me as odd
      • mo_Zzz
        but the several suers and a administratot watchamacallit just bugs me to much
      • DJKC
        you can have just the administrator account if you want, but that's less secure
      • same thing on linux, you can have just a single account but it's a bad idea
      • coite
        coite is now known as lulla
      • mo_Zzz
        because to me, its not a general better product, its made so pleebian neewbie idiots wil lhave a harder time fuckign up their system by deletign something wrong
      • secure? what so? secure how?
      • noone else uses my computer but me
      • DJKC
        but you're on the internet
      • mo_Zzz
        so?
      • DJKC
        so the point is you could possibly get infected with a virus or hacked
      • mo_Zzz
        XP was so full of security leaks they've practically ... erh.. somethign goes here
      • nobody is interested in my macine to hack its a ME machine afterall ;)
      • DJKC
        the point of having multiple accounts is that for day to day stuff if you get exploited they won't be able to access enough to do major damage
      • mo_Zzz
        and my virus program is golden
      • DJKC
        mo_Zzz: a zombie is a zombie. the people that run botnets with 10000+ PCs dont' care what it's running as long as it's hooked up to the internet
      • mo_Zzz
        well I've not been hacked sofar
      • DJKC
        err, and?
      • mo_Zzz
        so?
      • I obviusly don't need a sperate account
      • DJKC
        I was explaining why multiple accounts is a good idea for security, not "has mo been hacked yet?"
      • mo_Zzz
        I just don't see the need
      • DJKC
        so stick with Me. I'm not trying to convince you to switch, I'm attempting to explain why 2k/xp are considered better...
      • mo_Zzz
        the possible benifit does not (for me) outway the irritation / disworkability of havign my files randoly scattered and hard to get by
      • well ok, that ok
      • I'm erh.. tryign to explain trhat why I think XP is such crap
      • if I ever *Do* change OS's
      • I wil go linux, obvisuly
      • its' not so much about me loving ME so much that I *hate* XP
      • we have XP on my school macines and I cant eve nset my freaking homepage
      • the set homepage is not usefull
      • DJKC
        heh. see it's the "obviously" that bugs me there as much as the random slagging of xp because you don't need the features it has compared to xp. I don't care what OS people use as long as they're not being zealous about it and bashing others without actually looking at what it does good
      • mo_Zzz: err, isn't that how they're supposed to be?
      • I worked as a lab attendant years and years ago, we didn't want people changing anything
      • since changing was generally step 1 with step 2 being "machine completely fucked up and needs to be reloaded" -_-;
      • mo_Zzz
        but they've taken it so far to alevel of security that the macine beomes unusable even for usualthings
      • DJKC
        I'm guessing it's just for light web browsing, email, and typing/printing papers?
      • mo_Zzz
        like 'save image to desctop'
      • yes
      • DJKC
        heh, then I'd say they set it up right :P
      • mo_Zzz
        cant change printers because don't have admin powers >_<
      • blechx
        mo_Zzz, i fail to see how that can be windows XPs fault?
      • mo_Zzz
        because in mE i can hack that
      • :DD
      • DJKC
        if you want to do stuff you're not allowed to then don't blame the OS, figure out how to do it under that OS
      • blechx
        yea, security holes is a great feature ;)
      • DJKC
        you probably can under xp too
      • mo_Zzz
        ok
      • now i'm intersted
      • DJKC
        but it'd be more effort and then there's always the fun risk of expulsion
      • if they happen to notice you doing it
      • mo_Zzz
        expulwhatÃ…?
