Thread: I think I'm turning gay...

Welcome to the Buffalo Board, Boo...Ditch the goats...

I will never ditch the goats!

But, will you iAppletards tell me: do the iApple laptops regularly update and slow down and cause similar issues to the one stated above, or do the iApple laptops generally work ok?

Also, I just bought a 2GB WD My Passport Ultra - would that work on an iApple too?

Got me today also without consent. 45 mins wasted on something i didn't want.

What's going on ? How can they do this.
now i've got 6/16/2016 on the f date.

$1000, bloodyhell these are expensive little bastards these iApples. Are they worth it?

Nothing made by Apple is worth it

But just think of that shiny bitten into granny smith enticing all those young Korean hunks in Caffe Bene

^ will you iFacetime me, Dil?

They are expensive little bastards - I'd want it to work perfectly for 3 or 4 years at that price and be bloody good at doing everything including pulling iKorean iGirls for me!

Is that your boyfriend in your avatar? If so, does he think he's turning gay as well?

Nope, that's my hero: Eddie Jones!

I don't think so.

I was on wifi, which I needed, but the fuker had already downloaded itself and did the update upon restart - I could do nothing!

Oh yes...

I tested the waters with the free Win10 upgrade on my media centre laptop which I only use for TV and movies.

Seemed OK so I let my main workstation do the update. Both were previously Win7.

If you are careful you can turn off all the cloud hooks and MS snooping stuff.

So far I am kind of liking it.

The Windows Update service is set to Manual but it has brackets (trigger start). Don't know what that means but it did a big update today without asking so not sure what the score is with controlling updates.

^ I don't think you can control updates, certainly not all of them.

^^ Good stuff, thanks, Trailazer.

windozzz is for plebs and boring geeks. Get yourself a machine with a decent OS or at least linux. Windows 7 is not bad, after that downhill bloatware again with loads of stuff you don't need and can't seem to turn off or delete, it's nowhere near as good as Mac OS. Just don't use safari, not much better than that other Microsoft turd explorer.

Somehow we have never met Betty but a few of the lads say you come across as a bit effeminate like.

I must say Bobcock comes across as being far more gay with his dressing rooms stories but he is Welsh and his sexual preference is always going to be questionable.

Anyway spew your guts, let it all out and enjoy your new Korean boyfriend.........n

They are girly, but I prefer:

Do they scuttle around your man cave like that?

My puter, is begging me to update to win 10... sly fooking thing it is..

I'm old enough and ugly enough to not fall for it..

I know pain is zee ass will follow.. (figurative PIA not literal like BB mind)

I knew you'd turn up in this thread...

You don't need one to impress goats, but for posing while hinting at your newly discovered metrosexuality - indispensable, I'd say.

You can control updates in Windows pro.

stick a small SSD in to give your computer a new lease of life

A hammer to the screen works well...

Yeah, for me it started gently suggesting to upgrade "while it's free", then got more and more insistent and often, and finally it gave me 3 choices: Upgrade now, in two hours, or in 8 hours.
So I was sorta forced into it....although retrospectively, I wonder if I did not agree to the terms of use if it would have left me alone. That may be your only choice when push comes to shove.
I asked around and read reviews and nobody said it would slow my machine down, but I'm getting the same unsatisfactory results as Boo.
There's something always "working" as my cursor goes into the little "busy" circle loop for a few seconds every few seconds. I think it's to do with the Cloud, but not sure.
Stay away from it if you can....perhaps there'll be a Beta version soon.

How sweet.

Disconnecting cloud and win 10 hassles is quite easy, just google.
I also disconnected all updates for windows, pain in the arse, inconvenient.
