Night, Fallen.

@Syd: Just one more note before dropping the subject - you couldn't upgrade from ME even if you wanted to. Your only option would've been to get a new computer with a non-ME OS on it.

If you wish to know, you only need to ask.

See you guys around. I'll prepare the elephant-grade tranquillizers we'll need for this Saturday's episode.

@ nomuru: Wow, really? I knew I was screwed, but I didn't know I was that screwed.

A Dell desktop with Windows 7. I'm just not a laptop kind of guy.

Ah, I forgot that ME was an evolutionary dead-end in the Windows family. XP was an upgrade up from Win2000 (based on Win NT architecture). What a sad end to the 9x Windows legacy (Windows with DOS architecture), especially since I loved 98 SE so much D:

Also, desktops rule in terms of pure power, so you're only trading mobility for more oomph there.

Ed, better make those tranqs Ginger-stoppers and make enough for the rest of us to carry just in case.

the only time Internet Explorer should even be acknowledged as being on your computer is using it to download a real browser after a reboot

Especially older versions of IE. Using IE 6 is pretty much asking to get hacked. And it still has a 10% market share.

I've been reading a book about browser security, and it's kind of scary and also funny just how bad it is. Mainly because Microsoft virtually never backports security fixes, so it's wide open to everything discovered in the last 10 years.

If there is anything that you are alone in thinking, it's "thinking that you're alone in thinking of your theories".

@Ace: Of course they're for Ginger. Why do you think they're elephant-grade? I tried dinosaur-grade, but no one knows what that looks like.

For all it matters, I like tea much more than coffee. I prefer Earl Grey, but I like green tea as well.

^Make a whole pack, yeah. No one goes out without at least two.

Have you played the dinaosaur expansion for Zoo Tycoon? Tranqing a dinosaur isn't the hard part. The hard part is the scientists who are literally Too Dumb to Live.

I don't believe I've played that, no.

I'm packin' a triple load into every single dart. Just try to hit a vein when you shoot him. If it just gets under his skin, it'll irritate him more.

@edvedd Is this typical, or just because it's a Pinkie episode?

#98388 edvedd Thu, 16th Feb '12 9:43:57 PM from Over there. Maybe?

For Pinkie episodes and (sometimes) Applejack episodes. If anyone needs some ammo, it's in the central TV Tropes MLP thread weapons storage facility. Don't forget the passcode.

I dont get the appeal of tea or coffee (Is that what we're talking about?). I just taste tea as slight flavored water. Soda I like the best

With a wife like that who can blame him?

I think I'll head to bed now. It's been fun watching a bunch of videos, but my eyes are getting tired.

Wellllll...

I don't know if this has been posted here yet, but on 4chan the ponies have been kicked out of /co/ and /b/.

Now there's /mlp/.

#98393 kegisak Thu, 16th Feb '12 10:18:26 PM

Wow.

Not sure if it's a sign that we're just that prevalent, or that 4channers hate us that much.

#98394 Pannic Thu, 16th Feb '12 10:19:43 PM

Some users suspect that it's a repeat of "/fur/" whatever that was.

I'm assuming that it was some sort of "okay, get them all onto this own board, get them to post, and then IP ban them en masse" thing.

Other comparison is /vp/, when the video games board got its own Pokemon spinoff.

on IE: I go so far as to have a quickloader flash drive with all my installers for GIMP, Firefox, Opera, Libre Office, and such, all ready to go. No need to waste time and risk IE's security loopholes, just offload from my portable storage and get rolling immediately.

on the Ginger Tranqs: I've got my Retrophrenology Mallet ready, and some leftover tranqs from last time.

on /mlp/ at 4chan: That's just m00t trolling by letting the 4chan bronies ruin themselves with thei own board. Ponychan might actually be safer than /mlp/.

Good. We'll need all the tools we can get. Make sure the launch keys for the Sonic Rain-nuke haven't been compromised, will you?

@Ace God, it's a hidden board, and already /mlp/'s full of shitposting. Think it could be a /fur/ or whatever-it-was fiasco all over again? (anyone who posts gets banned?)

@DSK: Totally called it. Avoid /mlp/ and go to Ponychan instead, hopefully the drama nuts in /pony/ migrated back to /mlp/. Also I won't be surprised if m00t gives the failbronies on /mlp/ b@nishment.
