Omega-TI Posted August 11, 2015 Author Share Posted August 11, 2015 ...Berry posted something similar today on facebook, and I really was amazed. What gets me is the size of that monitor hooked up to it, what is that thing? In the second image you can get a feel for it's size and it looks to be at least an 80"! What do you think? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I've never contributed to anyone or anything, ever. Everything is free and should always be free, and there's no way I'd ever help anyone out, financially or otherwise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opry99er Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Wow... I have a 2TB external with hundreds of movies, shows, music, docs, etc and I've only used 53%. I cannot imagine..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tursi Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 I do worry about longevity of such a device, but we're starting to get data back from SSDs. 16TB, though, that's impressive, especially with no moving parts. Clearly it needs to go inside a TI-99. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+OLD CS1 Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 I just expanded my home/office NAS to 8TB. To be fair, it holds ISOs and images for just about every CD/DVD and floppy I come across (though I regularly off-load older resting data,) extracts of all of my CDs and DVDs plus videos I download from web sites (I find it aggravating that things can be taken down at a whim, so I keep them for myself,) Amiga, Commodore, and TI files, metric shyt-tonne of documents, and backups for a few machines. I do not need the performance of the SSD, but the reduction in heat and power consumption is attractive. Now, for my data center I would not mind having a SAN full of these things.

+Schmitzi Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Normally you have to uninstall the KB3035583 and to disable it afterwards (a new updatesearch is required to see it again) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Schmitzi Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Yes, this RegFix here looks goodi, no danger from itself (but the GWX remains on the system, and I prefer the way of banning it) And this is what happens with Windows10: Updates & Upgrades are forced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweet, your Dell probably saved you from a making a mistake (upgrading to 10). Now I've heard that if you download Silverlight and install it on your system that somehow fixes the problem... don't ask me why, I have no clue. I'll not be trying it either as I have no plans of upgrading. If you already have it on your system and are still getting the error you are supposed to uninstall it, and re-install it. Good luck... I think. Windows is such a kludge! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Schmitzi Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 yes, and before you migrate to Windows 10, move your private sourcecodes and this things to another destination/computer.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+mizapf Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 No problem, this is a new laptop which has a dual boot configuration, and Windows was preinstalled ... so I thought if I'll be using the dual-installed Linux most of the time anyway (which has all the important stuff on it), let Windows 10 have try on the other partition. I know that there was already an issue with a dual boot configuration with patch KB3033929 that must be ignored (it obviously tried to patch something in the boot block which was modified by grub2), so I thought this could have been a problem here as well, but if it only told me what seems to be its boggles (mellow greetings, citizen), I could do something about it. Yes, and that very laptop was delivered with a "Recovery DVD" - not Windows 7 as installed, but Windows 8. Ah yes, and it does not have a DVD drive; the external one I have from the older laptop is a eSATA drive, but this one is back to USB. So I'll first have to find an external DVD drive. Yes, I tried to burn a Windows 10 ISO on a stick, but then it asks me for the license number during installation. Dell, however, does not stick a label with the number to the chassis as they always used to. No, this time the license number is buried somewhere inside, and even Magical Jellybean Keyfinder could not return me a key that is accepted by the installer. As I heard, the number is now registered in the UEFI system somewhere. Which brings me back to try a normal upgrade on the laptop, which keeps ending in the aforementioned error message. Great. I'm afraid I'll have to see our IT staff for a solution. That almost like asking for the way. ----------------- Things were better in the past. At least we got some better error messages - see the attached picture from Dell's Backup and Restore tool: "An error has occured." I wonder what could be the logical next step: "hehe, fooled you" or "I think I'll stop here" or "This installation is good enough for you." We're continuously trying to simplify things in computing, which won't work, I'm pretty sure. You can try to reduce computer interaction in a sequence of finger swipes, but you'll end up in people being merely able to check their mails (sorry, old thinking, read messages or timeline) with absolutely no clue what is going on. And those of us who do know quite a lot of computers are pushed back in the line with all those others who rather get a new phone instead to fixing their old one... just because we're taken away all tools to work with.
