Updated to window 11 from 10. Fuck me!!
 

The click for that is now there. The scrolls added now on the other side of were it was. Search options suck. +++ It's taken me a lot of time to find the new routine. Why not have the option to keep the layout the same?

So fucking time consuming:(

In other news, iOS 17 was released today :thumbsup

Uninstall the back up sync feature first.

windows is fucking awful these days. last decent version was 7

I have one windows machine for the rare occasion I want to play a non-linux-compatible game and even just loading up a game is infuriating. ads everywhere, endless notifications, weird performance issues...

just awful.

"upgraded to windows 11" comments or threads never say "and i love it" :1orglaugh

i used win7 for many years after it was end of life. i went to win10 only because newer laptops came with it. i think it runs pretty stable. i have 3 win10 machines on my desk running 24/7 and never crash, although they do want to force upgrade every week.

we have a gaming station in the house on win11 that runs many hours a day. the teenage user of that machine says he didn't have any problems switching to win11.

i'm not a fan of some of the win11 UI choices. going towards Apple design isn't the right way to go for Windows users, but it is standard for Microsoft to copy other companies. they've never successfully created anything original.

we have 19 apple devices in the house (not counting 30+ tags) but i only touch them for testing. if my wife lets me.

#

holy crap. 4 windows machines, 19 apple devices....how many linux machines?

my gf clowns me for having 4 laptops (2 linux for work, 1 windows for games, 1 apple for music).

you're on another level bro.

They are just keeping to tradition. Every 2nd version of windows is shit.

98 was good, millenium edition was shit, xp was good, vista was shit, 7 was good, 8 was shit, 10 is good, 11 is shit.

win XP still da best

over 80 linux machines if you count servers :helpme

#

servers don't count LMAO. I'm at 21

80 sounds absurd though, I think that's more than pornhub. they did an AMA on reddit a few years ago and I think they said its in the 30's

pornhub's videos are shit compared to 100k+ HD and 4K videos.

i'm sure they have thousands of servers tho.

Yes, Windows 7 Professional - my all time fave (since starting with MS-DOS 1.0).

With Win 7, you had complete control over updates, and everything was where you expected it to be, when you needed it.

:thumbsup

umm.....have you never heard of a CDN?

also pornhub doesn't have thousands of servers bro. extrapolating from my own numbers the most they would need is 600, but that's only if they're going with a microserver architecture. with bare metal servers it would be 30-60.

I could see pornhub running on 20-30 servers, assuming that we are not counting cloud storage devices or cdn nodes as "servers" per say

i cunt a4d2 update to window 11 from 10... :(

yep, pretty much

condolences Fidel

wait til your mic stops working when yet another (my god like 3 in the past two months) update is required. I wouldn't update but every now and then I have to shut down my comp (update automatic on start up no matter what 'later' I set)

the sound goes out on my mic even before I update if I ignore it for too long. then of course navigating through a bunch of ads for microsoft products and eventual start up is slow as molasses for the first 5 mins. such a fun way to start a day

I'm really fed up and doubt I'll ever buy another microsoft/windows comp again

fucking updates upon updates. 10 was fine. no I am not going to pay you for ish I don't need. if I needed it I'd already have it


I ranted about this earlier this year here. S and ZTT nailed it

10 was fine. pet kittens, get a manicure, post a copycat 'innovative' thing on tiktok and snort some turmeric. get a million likes and become an influencer. or just say 'uh, this is working. our job is to maintain it'

anything to keep paws off shit that was functioning well before the new miraculous version of something that did not need to be changed


is apple really any better? I'd go for linux next time but not sure it would work with the programs I need


anyway, Fidel, feel your pain kiddo. buckle up for a fun ride

Good luck for awesome experience using windows 11

True
Hahahhaha. This guy doesn't know servers :) 1000s of servers for pornhub :))))))))))))

do any of you besides K0nr4d even sign into more than a shared account in a given week? do you pay 5-figure hosting bills every month? not your clients, you. cuz i do.

yes i am counting CDN, cloud hosting, your mom's local dev server in the basement. why wouldn't you count those? they are servers. i built my own CDN, and i manage those servers, so yes i will count them.

anybody know the video count on PH? did you guys know those videos have to be stored and served? or do you think its just magic?

#

I wouldn't count them because you have no way to count them - we don't know how many nodes are in that cdn and we don't know how many nodes are in their storage cloud, and those that are are likely shared in some way by other clients of the CDN company.

You can count your CDN because you made it and know exactly how many nodes are in it. I would even argue that by counting CDN, then even Mechbunny.com is hosted on thousands of servers because it's behind cloudflare. :2 cents:

yea if you don't know the tech behind your services, you can't count them lol. it looks like Manwin runs all of its own data warehouses according to interviews. with their massive capital, they're probably managing their own distribution networks too.

i bet Brad knows the answer. that dude has a few hundred servers at least.

#

I wasn't even willing to update to 10 from 7 until the very last moment when there was really no support left at all, never used 8 and such crap... will probably be the same with updating to 11 from 10, by the time I'll be forced to do that there will probably be 12-13 already xD these days upgrades mean making the software shittier lol...

You can move the Taskbar to the left from the default center if that bothers you.

If you use notepad a lot, then the new tabs feature is a great help.

I never have any of these problems. Weird. XP was the best tho.

it's a stupid fucking thing to be arguing about but yes, I have a 5 figure server bill and I manage all the machines through SSH. you're not the only tech-savvy person on this forum running a large operation.

its also pretty stupid to argue about whether CDN counts as servers. Like konrad said, if you're using cloudflare, you're using "thousands" of servers, but you're only actually logging into a few of them.

its cool and all that you built your own CDN but uhh...as a software engineer....I kinda think you're putting a LOT of time and effort into something that has a negligible effect on your profit margins. Mojohost would be stoked to set you up with a CDN plan with custom pricing (given how much traffic you have) and your server administration workload would be cut by 80%. again...as a software engineer...its a no-brainer.

I really loved 10 and 7

i know tech savvy people are the majority of daily gfy visitors. i only assume nube status when you say dumb things. see i can be a grumpy asshole too. XD

what would you know about my objectives, goals, or tasks? are you my secret business partner? XD

then you try to sell me on Mojo. XD

none of this has anything to do with the debate regarding how many servers PH is managing. you just try to attack and focus on me.

what did your mom cook for dinner tonight? did she bring it down to the basement or do you go up for it? XD

ew
What is Windows?
Are you getting the new iPhone?

Yea, you've built your cdn same as i have. FYI, having 1 server in eu/us/asia is not a cdn thx.

I have now remembered who you are. You're the guy that will hit a three pointer in 10 tries, and then say "in my young age, i could have been Jordan, but life circumstances stopped me". I have servers in US, EU and Asia. Only thing needed is to serve the same content from all 3 now and i have a cdn. maybe i should pitch to akamai to take them over.

And people thought I was nuts for having 30 servers in my house...

we're all small fry in this industry :1orglaugh

#

Small or big fry, you have done nothing remotely to "building your own cdn" :)

I will wait for windows 12

at least i post my credentials. i'm not an anonymous troll. what you say means nothing without credentials. you're just another bitter loudmouth.

a cdn doesn't require a minimum number of nodes, and you don't have to depend on one of the mega corporations to distribute your content to different parts of the world. i think its great that you want to give billionaires your money instead of doing a little coding and setup work, but i've got plenty of time on my hands.

my little baby network serves around 20tb of videos a day. nothing much i know, but it works and keeps me and my clients fed.

here's a refresher for you if you forgot how to build a CDN without big techs tit in your mouth...



:thumbsup

You probably only upgraded to 10 when they bought the tech company that made 10 behave like 7 and then made 10 more like 7.

Fuck the CEO!

People still use Windows?

Amazing how Linux (any flavor you want) and Mac OS exist but people still use Windows.

Agree MojoHost is not a good idea. Yesterday they allowed our site to have NO IMAGES displaying on our 4 sites for over 4 hours, even though we notified them of the issue. And it's because they forgot to update a CDN hook template and tried to gloss over that fact. They finally admitted fault, but this is like one of several incidents over the years.

So many ignorant people in here and my MojoHost threads blindly defending them.

Agree it's best to at least get your own DevOps person and either build your own CDN or at least move to AWS.
