Old computers did it better!

ant says...

Not me, but I remember I hosed my custom built PC with Norton Utilities v8.0 for DOS' Disk Defrag due to VERIFY=ON bug.

Anyone ever use the OS called CP\M on old Kaypro computers? My first computer job in 1985 was supporting an auto salvage yard database on those computers in Texas. CP\M was painful, you could erase the hard disk you booted from, if you weren't careful. Which I did, I spent a whole day entering inventory into the hard drive, then went to back it up by erasing a bunch of floppies first. The one time I forgot to specify A: for the floppy drive to be erased, it defaulted to the C drive. So when it said "Are you sure you want to erase this disk?" I tapped Y and it erased the boot drive, with the OS, the inventory program and all that data I had typed in all day. I took a long walk and considered a career change, I was so angry. Then went back and typed it all in again.

It had some pretty... er... powerful quotes in there. The Brad Pitt comments after Norton slugged him on the cheek were not quite the same words you'd hear on an episode of Teletubbies, for example. Leonardo and Jack prolly could have used a little mouthwash too.

I remember a lot of softwares didn't support these server editions. Even my former employer's Norton products didn't support them.

I think it should be able to. Back in the Server 2003 days some people liked it better for desktop use than Windows XP.

Your Tax Dollars (Hard) At Work.

eric3579 says...

MUSKEGON COUNTY, Mich. — A Norton Shores man was arrested Sunday after leading police on a chase on his moped.

Norton Shores Police were dispatched to a home on Reneer Avenue west of Leon Street after Richard Shear, 28, allegedly threatened his mother and girlfriend with a sledgehammer and a knife and tried to set the house on fire.

Sources tell FOX 17 that the suspect’s mother called police after he threatened her with the weapons.

He`s accused of threatening his girlfriend too, but she told FOX 17 that never happened.

Sources also tell FOX 17 Shears attempted to light the house on fire by pouring gasoline on his landscaping then throwing a candle.

They say he also slashed an SUV’s tire before hopping on the moped and fleeing.

As FOX 17 took a closer look at the incident, we learned Shear has a history of drunk driving arrests, but we’re told he is also seeking help for mental health issues.

We’re told Shear, just like many other servicemen and women, suffers from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), a result of his time spent serving overseas in Iraq during his eight years in the Marines.

Those close to him tell us he has been struggling with PTSD, abusing alcohol to prevent dealing with the deep seeded issues and hitting rock bottom on Sunday.

Police say the chase ended back at Shear’s home when he tried running back inside but was arrested by police.

His bond has been set at $100,000.

Daily show: Republicans trying to win the lady vote

Thanks for the not-blocked embed in the comments, otherwise it wasn't loading for me.

I learned that if Kristen were a man, she'd look a little like and have mannerisms like Edward Norton!

Jonah Hill and Morgan Freeman Share Awkward Moment

Xaielao says...

One of the reasons I enjoy this show is because of the regular, shoot-the-shit kind of talk between celebs. Same with The Daily Show.

Most of us are used to canned 7 minute 'pre-approved' questions interjected with a not-that-funny story and a 30 second clip that is modern american late night talk shows. I mean the reason John Stewart has won so many concurrent Emmies is because he actually interviews like a real person and not a robot, he gets the meat of the topic, the interesting stuff. It's just so much less 'scripted'. Sure Graham Norton has the 'not-so-funny stories and the one liners but his show often involves a more casual dynamic between the guests. It's something I'd much like to see on US late night.

Fuck The Poor

Yogi says...

Jim Norton had a joke along those lines, that there was a drug addict he was sponsoring that was going to see him, and take his cum.

ChaosEngine said:

Kinda like Louis CK imploring us to go fuck an ugly person! A laudable aim.

If you really want to help, you could fuck a poor person and then give them money afterwards!


I'm so going to hell for that one

Coolest Robot Dances Gangnam Style on Graham Norton

poolcleaner says...

Yeah, sadly I upvoted too soon -- because I LOVE robots.

I was expecting it to have more speed and some decent leg movement for that godawful 12k price tag. Between my brother, father and myself, we own, at the worst, $500 worth of robots, and they're all just as capable -- and more reliable -- than this.

We've gotten them at swap meets, craigslist, robotics fairs, etc. and never have paid more than 100 bucks a piece. Most of them are from 20-50 dollars a piece -- and they have smart phone apps which control them remotely.

This robot is rubbish. Either that or the instructions given to Norton went over his head.

Robots of this variety have the capacity for complex choreography involving programmable while loops -- and we see NONE of that in this clip. They could have had a basic program run that Norton would interrupt via voice/remote control and it could have been AMAZING!

Why does he have to keep tapping on the idiot robot's head? Weeeaaaaaakkk...
