Windows 7, because I don't like Linux but I don't like Windows 10.

Why do you dislike Linux and Win 10, but like Win 7? I know that it's your own opinion, but it just doesn't make that much sense to me :/

Because with Linux, you have to use emulators if you want Windows only programs to work, but with Windows 10, I feel like I'm using a tablet AND compatibility with Windows programs are still broken. Windows 7 still works with games from the 90's while looking decent in the process, plus I already own it and have it installed.

I personally did not encounter any problems with the Wine emulator on openSUSE 43.1 Leap which I am using currently. It's almost stable. It always runs correctly my Windows applications (paint.NET [with Mono], Notepad++...). I destest Windows 10 (Anniversary Update or not), because it is not stable, Cortana always want to connect with the useless Microsoft Account, and it is not working with old applications I have currently on a old Windows XP computer.
(PS: I use CraftOS in-game

Wow you're lucky with that Windows 10 Anniversary Edition.
Mine always gave me a BSOD after 5 min of uptime, no matter what I was doing.

Windows 10 is crap, and will still be.

UEFI is a piece of crap
EFI is not bad
BIOS is cool

Why the hate on UEFI?

Because UEFI blocks all installations of non-Windows OSes, and some constructors even lock the computer when you try to install it.

I used to have Arch w/ Gnome 3 or Cinnamon. I felt that it was to unstable, being a rolling release and all. Now I use Ubuntu 16.04, with Cinnamon. Unfortunately it uses more resources, but I have found nearly everything just works with Ubuntu, and there's a plethora of support.

You could also use openSUSE, because Ubuntu is kinda stable, but it is consuming so much power... Even if I switched to FLWM, it's still consuming a big amount of power. This is why I switched to openSUSE Leap.

I have Windows 10 Anniversary Update and I really like it. It is completely stable, never had an issue with it (except activation, worked in a few days) and it never failed me. I use it for playing games, coding, and other things. I really like having Windows 10 on my computer.

You know that Windows 10 (Anniversary Update) watches your personal data ?

If you created an Microsoft Account, this will happen:

You can block CTRL-T by using this piece of code:

function os.pullEvent(event, ...)
  local event = os.pullEventRaw(event);
  if event ~= "terminate" then
   return event, ...;
  end
end

Because I felt like it

If you were making a program that delete specific files per date, size, etc... it would be more useful.

EDIT: I looked more with your code, and you were using shell.run("..."); which is not recommended. Prefer using fs.delete("..."); than shell.run("...");.

Interresting, but why did you called it Sliders and not Scrollbars ?

#273565 Shark - A site browser for CC

Posted by Cross_Sans on 21 December 2017 - 04:27 PM in Programs

Yeah, another web browser; but seriously, hardly creating a custom URL syntax with a custom language is very impertinent and not useful at all to be honest. If it was supporting requests (and this is possible even if ComputerCraft hasn't many functions for networking) and HTML (even a bit), it would be much more popular and would get more feedback. I mean, you did have made a parser that is XML language like, so why using a custom language ?

Have a nice day,

Alex.

#266878 How do I make threads that uses events with the coroutine API ?

Posted by Cross_Sans on 08 May 2017 - 01:00 PM in Ask a Pro

Hi, my question is "How do I make threads that uses events with the coroutine API ?". I have tried few times, but failed at each one. I was unable to get os.pullEvent() to work on any attempt I have made. Please make an example program.

Thanks for reading, Redall.
