arfink Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 (edited) Doing a new Windows install and config takes so much time. I've been at this for hours. :P First the install, then the 3 or 4 reboots as it gets itself settled. Then activation. Then drivers. More rebooting. Gotta clean up the default settings on IE because it's so very very insecure by default. It's like a giant neon sign proclaiming to every web server "HEY, I HAVEN'T BEEN PATCHED OR HAD ANY DEFAULTS CHANGED, PLEASE ATTACK ME!" It didn't come with anything useful by default, no office applications, no productivity-anything, no common utilities for audio or video. I put on my standard package of Libre Office suite for productivity and VLC for media. Avast for anti-virus. Chrome and Firefox both installed too. Then I had to install the various proprietary codecs, and Adobe Flash. Next I should probably install Adobe Reader, since Microsoft Windows still doesn't read industry standard file formats. GRRRRR. I had to put on java and javascript attack protection and adblockers since it seems advertising is also a huge security problem these days. Come to think of it, I bet it doesn't even have CD/DVD ripping or burning capabilities built in either, and probably a hundred other things that really have been included standard in Apple and Linux OSes for better than a decade now. :bashes head against wall: Edited February 23, 2014 by arfink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arfink Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 Feeling lonely today, and a bit burned out. I know in my head that I'm still doing OK, and no ground has been lost yet, but I still just want to hibernate for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arfink Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 (edited) Ugh, and today I feel a bit sickish. :x Edited February 26, 2014 by arfink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arfink Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 Much pain. Very ow. Please pray. Even with the vicodin, it still hurts a ton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristinaTherese Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Awww. Vicodin is the worst, isn't it? It cuts things down, but that includes your ability to function like a normal human being.... Prayers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arfink Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 Yeah, but at this point, the pain is inhibiting my human-ness a heck of a lot more than the pills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristinaTherese Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I know the feeling. (I was there for migraines back in high school... but at least my pain was basically nuked by the Vicodin.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
