edlib Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Originally posted by Kjølen And I'm curious to know, how are your systems? Old. Very old. Bragging about the specs of my best system ended about 4 and a half years ago. I won't bother you here with them... you wouldn't be impressed. I thought you wanted a Mac. What happened?

Boba Rhett Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Your geek sword is way bigger than mine. Although, you did hose yourself and get an x800 so that makes me feel a little better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kjølen Posted February 9, 2005 Author Share Posted February 9, 2005 Originally posted by Rogue Nine You can't figure out how to use your microphone on TS. Which means you SUCK. My microphone works fine. It's my soundcard that seems to be the problem. It's not a simple tweek of checkboxes, Niner, this is a hardware issue.

DrMcCoy Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Originally posted by Alien426 OS: bah, I'll program my own OS to get away from you people with your crappy Windux and Linows ...Programming an own OS is quite easy (been there, done that)... The problem is programming an OS that actually does something usefull... Originally posted by Alien426 Doc: You use a GUI? I only use the console!! On the way out don't forget to leave your Pocket Protector. You're just not geek enough anymore. ...When I'm programming X-stuff, I use X, of course (With thousands of xterms)... When I'm programming stuff for the console, I use the console... But I thought posting screenshots of the console isn't that exiting, but if you really want, I'll post some as soon as I get home... Originally posted by Alien426 Ray: Cedega? You pay for system software? I only use GNU GPL products!! ...You don't have to pay for Cedega/WineX, you can download the CVS-Version for free... But it's unsupported and you'll have to compile it yourself (no problem for me)... And you really shouldn't look at the code, if you ever want to sleep again, it's horrible...

Ray Jones Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Originally posted by Alien426 Cedega? You pay for system software? I only use GNU GPL products!! I do not pay for it. It's free if you compile it yourself (but without support for copy protection methods). You'll have to use no-cd-patches that way. But, hahaha, it couldn't care less, since I tend to use them anyway. I hate the sound of a high speed spinning CD drive. -fwewwwhuiiieiieeeeeieieieieiieieieieieeeeeeeeeeuiuighhgwheeeeeeeieieieieieieiie- *dies* [edit] *resurrects* *shoots McCoy in the geek nuts* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joshi Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Originally posted by Kjølen OS: Windows XP Home Edition with SP2 It sucks that you no longer have the choice in whether you want sp2 or not, it usually screws people up who like to customize their computer with their own security stuff.
