Corona Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 What is MS doing? I can't understand this. Apple has the iPhone. Samsung uses Android tech. What the f does MS have? Zune. Computers. Lots & lots of office and home computers. And they're trying to turn our PCs into phones with W10. How this will happen I don't know. They don't own Skype. I just can't help but think that they're pretending to be significant. By the way, I hate smartphones. And I'll slap you senseless with a selfie-stick if you disagree.

Moderators Nergal Posted March 9, 2016 Moderators Share Posted March 9, 2016 Um, what is this nonsense (in the most literal form of the word) none-sense ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF. Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark) ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

login123 Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 If you weren't serious about that self destructing part, I will come out from under the couch now. Not awfully worried about that selfie stick. The CCleaner SLIM version is always released a bit after any new version; when it is it will be HERE :-) Pssssst: ... It isn't really a cloud. Its a bunch of big, giant servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corona Posted March 10, 2016 Author Share Posted March 10, 2016 I think that "self destruct in 5 seconds" blurb was used in the intro of every old 1960s 'I Spy' TV episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Nergal Posted March 10, 2016 Moderators Share Posted March 10, 2016 You mean this: The tape scene is very similar to one described in the 1964 Nick Carter-Killmaster novel Saigon, published in December 1964 and repeated in the 1966 novel Danger Key (copyright registered in February 1966). In the novels, secret agent Carter receives a package from his boss which, when activated, plays a tape-recorded message that self-destructs after playing once.I also want to destruct this...but at least it has sense now, as opposed to the non-sensical OP...just sayin' Also "Zune"? Me thinks you am at least 10 years behind Yo. Search Holo-Lens, Search Azure, look at the integrated eco-system of xBox-one/Windows-10 Research before prattle..just sayin' ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.

Moderators DennisD Posted March 12, 2016 Moderators Share Posted March 12, 2016 You can't beat a bit of humour Corona, no matter how discombobulated folk may find it. I'm also with you on smart phones. Folk spending half their lives with a social media induced crick in the neck. Just saying .... or has someone already texted said that?

Moderators Andavari Posted March 12, 2016 Moderators Share Posted March 12, 2016 I'm also with you on smart phones. Folk spending half their lives with a social media induced crick in the neck. It was reported on the news that here in the U.S. people getting hit and injured and/or killed by cars is on the rise do to them walking and looking at their phones and not paying any attention to their surroundings.

If one of them hits one of those walkers, nobody would even know what happened. Slightly off the topic (I'll slap my own wrist), but kinda related was an incident I saw in a supermarket car park the other day. Two cars had a slight mishap when they collided very slowly with each other. Instead of at least one irate driver jumping out of his car they both reversed in opposite directions at a frightening rate of knots and disappeared into the traffic. Wow, I thought. What's the chance of two obvious illegal cars (no insurance?) hitting each other and both doing a runner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
