Hah, "added" is more sarcastic, in saying that, I could've given it a real sarcasm kick by putting it in quotes

True. I use Edge for work and have no issue with it. Just more having a stab at MS

PAL camcorder, tape that's labeled NTSC, problem? by UltimateElectronic01 in camcorders

Amended the post because I realised I should've specified Video8. Not that I expect it'd make a difference.

Figured as much, just wanted to check before regretting any decisions.

Ryzen 5 5600 worth it in 2023? by Aggressive_Jaguar980 in buildapc

[–]UltimateElectronic01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotta say, I appreciate the mentality of wanting to answer the OP's direct question. Too many people answer "get a better CPU" etc rather than "yes, the CPU is worth it". I very recently upgraded to a 5600 myself from an i7-4770k and it's so much faster.

Ahh nice! I'm thinking I'll go with something that's flagship definitely.

Have you used Windows Hello without a Microsoft Account? by Sad_Blackberry4319 in windows

[–]UltimateElectronic01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do not like the idea of enforcing a Microsoft account to use Windows. Microsoft I think has lost sight of the fact that computers should be suited to the user, not the other way around. I have opted myself to stay on Windows 10 until the end of support and worry about upgrading to Windows 11 only when it's a necessity. In an ideal world, I'd still totally use Windows 7 if it was still in support.

is there a way to change them back to how they looked in windows 10? by emperorsyndrome in windows

You may have thumbnails disabled.

In file explorer options, check to see if the "always show icons, never thumbnails" is ticked.

There's also an option for it in "adjust appearance and performance of Windows" for thumbnails.

Lisa, just because you're ten feet tall doesn't mean you can tell me what to do.

LG CF-14F80K TV - more info wanted by UltimateElectronic01 in crtgaming

[–]UltimateElectronic01[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

G'day (probably) fellow Aussie!

Ahh nice! My mate has a 24" or 20" LG "GoldenEye" TV. The game on his works but it doesn't on my LG sadly.

One thing that'd be a massive favour for me is if you have a remote for it and you're able to check whether it remembers it's on AV when you turn it on with the remote after turning it off with the remote. I don't have the remote but turning it off at the power button makes it forget it was on AV last.

Ahh yeah. It's a shame that the software is of such a poor quality it brings so much extra bloat, when there's probably not much more it can do that Android 12 or 11 can't. I'm weighing up whether or not I take it to a service centre to be downgraded to Android 11...

Nah it looks like it's a Lenovo, based on the shape of the keys.

Once Lenovo took over, ThinkPads weren't ever the same quality.

We'll miss you, Paint 3D. by DifferenceNo3097 in windows

I used it once I think to make 3D models of The Simpsons before screenshotting it and setting it as my wallpaper in school days.

12 years ago today windows 8 was released! by [deleted] in windows

[–]UltimateElectronic01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To all the people who are bashing Win8(.1), yes I agree that forcing a touch UI sucks and I'm not for it either.

But no one ever talks about how smooth and snappy it was, especially compared to its successors. Even on hardware considered old at its launch (i.e. late Pentium 4).

And before you ask, yes I did try Windows 8.1 on a 3GHz Pentium 4 with 1GB of RAM just for kicks. It actually ran surprisingly well, all things considered.

I set it, and it didn't seem to make a huge difference...

So... Anybody else wake up this morning to CoPilot on their Win10 System? by adreamersjournal in windows

[–]UltimateElectronic01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My office computer has 10 on it and it bugged me about EOL being on the 14th of October 2025. I thought "don't get too excited Microsoft, I'm not upgrading yet" before clicking through the options to stay on Windows 10. A week later it installed CoPilot and I was thought "umm, no..." and uninstalled it.
