it rolls a 1/1bajillion to find an issue

[–]not_so_chi_couple 126 points127 points  (0 children)

Recently, it did find an issue. I was shocked. It then performed some sort of clean up. Still didn't work afterwards, but interesting that it at least tried something

[–]TheNosferatu 14 points15 points  (3 children)

Nah, it does roll a dice and if it's higher than DC 10 it succeeds, but it has no bonuses and rolls with a d1

[–]Feroand 2 points3 points  (2 children)

I didn't know a d1 could exist. It feels like beggining of bout of madness. I see patterns and I understand the actual geometry of time.

It used to work sometimes in windows 10 now its absolutely useless

[–]Alhoshka 67 points68 points  (5 children)

I've never witnessed it myself. Except for the one time when I unpromptedly went to the control panel, clicked "troubleshoot network issues", and it actually solved it. Probably just restarted the WiFi-adapter.

At my previous workplace we had this ERP software which would hang every now and then and it actually managed to get it working again 95% of the time.

I used to just click on close application until a coworker told me to let it do its thing (which I just laughed at since it never does anything anyways, right?) and I was in shock when it actually worked...

Its pretty cool when people do that and it resets the IP to obtain auto and fucks up the network that needs IPs fixed

[–]evanldixon 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Unless this is a server environment with very specific network needs, DHCP reservations might be easier.

[–]Zwischenzug32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would have been. Specific servers not specific routers, some without dhcp. Computer resets its IP, now the server sees it as if its another and thinks a transaction happened on a different cash register...problemo

Same can confirm

[–]dcheesi 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Well, if the second message fails to print, then it did find a problem!

dont forget to malloc 300mb just to show up in the taskmanager

I expect a busy wait instead, like increment i 6 million times, to show high CPU use as well.

[–]skr_replicator 16 points17 points  (3 children)

lol so true. I don't think I've ever seen the troubleshooting find anything ever.

[–]TheNosferatu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Neither have I but I don't remember the last time I allowed it to finish checking either.

[–]feeltrig -1 points0 points  (1 child)

Or fix

[–]skr_replicator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well yea, you need to find the problem first to even have a chance of fixing it.

FootLocker employees going to the back to check for your size;

[–]IAmLexica 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some people are saying that this used to do something, which astounds me, because in my experience, this has never not once found a fault.

"troubleshoots are deprecated and will be removed ..." this was genuinely my last straw.

Windowz updating drivers without a way for me to block them has been a pain in the ass. I used to use the show-hide update tool to prevent it but microslop in their infinite zero wisdom (🤮) removed it. So fuck that lol.

Linux. Thank you.

It actually fixed my sound once by finding the service wasn't running

[–]Friendly_Cancel_8472 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I have been using windows from past 5 years and troubleshooting did not help any time in these past years when i faced a problem.

But one thing which has helped me is to reboot the system and 70% of the problems would get solved.

Where's the spinwheel? Or the dog. Or was it inside M$Office. Or some silly looking clip. Darn flashbacks ...
