windows 8.1 still sucks

[always stevey]

Don't try to deflect this back onto me, you're in here whining that windows 8 will breed a new generation of idiots who don't understand the basic principles behind what they're doing, meanwhile windows already did that 20 years ago and you're one of the idiots it bred, you hypocrite.

hahaha lol

I hate how those parasites at jiffy lube charge a reasonable price to change peoples oil for them, their customers will never know the glory and the satisfaction of getting covered in oil themselves and are clearly being taken advantage of

APPEND/?

Clicking on pretty little pictures is hard, but I worked diligently to learn how and am now a super genius. If they make the pretty pictures just slightly bigger, though, that's like way too easy and frankly it insults my intelligence

Bullshit. Prove it, tell me how to append a line of text to a file.

Bullshit. Prove it, tell me how to append a line of text to a file.

COPY text1.txt + text2.txt

COPY text1.txt + text2.txt

that's how you combine two text files, power user. you're looking for

echo "text" >> filename.txt

also, that browser was a GUI because there was a highlighted blue bar for your selection and an up/down function

you still don't seem to understand what a gui is maybe you should look it up

In computing,[1] graphical user interface (GUI, sometimes pronounced 'gooey')[2] is a type of user interface that allows users to interact with electronic devices using images rather than text commands.

give me a DOS manual and a dictionary and I can do anything you can do in DOS; granted it will take me some more time, because you've just used DOS more and are more experienced with it, but I would still be able to catch up

lies, if you were going to use dos you'd be using it now. you're a newbie hooked on his GUI and you have no place criticizing windows 8 users

how about move all files of a particular type

move *.txt %USERPROFILE%\documents

What's that? I'm done and you're still fumbling around with ctrl+click? who would have thought

if only yall could see each others point of view a little more and agree that both a gui and a command line each have their strengths and weaknesses, you can conclude a fair way to work is to use both.

i skimmed through this thread a little bit and i think maybe the complaint plug drugs against windows 8 has isnt as hypocritical as maks makes it out to be, on the basis that plugs drugs uses the windows gui so he's already using dumbed down software, etc.

i can think of changes to my present windows experience that i would have welcomed, but didn't happen. eventually if you simplify something enough the computer will just turn right back into a television, where there's no creating, only consuming (think about how in particular bill gates trys to reaffirm that users 'like to create, and they like to consume').. maybe plug drugs doesnt like the element of oversimplification or the idea of 'dumbing down' which is a fair point, idk my laptop battery has like 1% i gotta hit submit early or itll all be lost ahhhh

The GUI and the CLI both have their places, and the most effective way to use these machines is to utilize a combination of both. Anyone who only uses the GUI shouldn't go standing up on pedestals pretending to be an authority on how "smart" people use computers. He's a gigantic hypocrite.

"Windows 8 is oversimplified" is a stupid argument. If anything it's more complicated. If you're in the desktop, you have to move your mouse to a special hidden corner to bring up the control panel or shut it down. There's no button, no sign, you're supposed to just know that. One of the main reasons I recommend my customers avoid Windows 8 is because I don't want to bill them a million hours when they're calling me asking how the fuck to do anything. It's not dumbed down, it's not intuitive, it's change for the sake of change it's clunky and it's shit. Plug Drugs knows Win 8 sucks, but he's ass-backwards on the "why?" and he looks like a jackass right now.

It's over-simplified in the fact that it was designed for a touch-mouse duality, and the nature of a touch device is generally to simplify things
