Unbelievable! These spoiled retarded kids start insulting their parents like hell, just because they wanted a freaking WHITE one instead of a BLACK one. :pinch: While there are kids in the world that have absolutely NOTHING. What has happened with the strictness of parents nowadays??

I'm getting extremely scared of my generation.. :wacko:

OK, I get this is a joke, this it still reflects how spoiled some kids really are today.

Wow, ya this is terrible. I totally agree with you Coi... this generation has gone to ****. Kids don't appreciate things anymore. They should be more grateful for what they do have. I feel fortunate that I was raised by parents who had rules. Also, my parents didn't have a lot of money and I think that made me a better person. Made me work for everything I have now. Lol, hilarious song, but so sad. I work in a private educational IT department and we are having trouble finding student workers; and the reason is because none of them need jobs because their parents are paying their tuition (your talking $30k a year, and the kids don't work!!). Parents are some of the reason this generation doesn't know how to work and doesn't appreciate what they have. sigh :/ Lol, Coi you got me all riled up.

Well, to rub it in the faces of those spoilt morons, I did get an iPhone for Christmas. :laugh: It was my parents' old iPhone 3GS, as they upgraded to the 4S, so that was my present (which I ended up getting when they upgraded, which was back in November :p ), and I'm extremely grateful for it, as my old Sony Ericsson phone (that I got second-hand on eBay over two years ago for my birthday) was getting on its last legs a few months ago

Atleast here in the states, you cant discipline your kids anymore, otherwise they will be taken by child protective services, you spend time in jail, pay a HUGE fine, and never see your kids again... all you can do nowadays is take away playtime for a bit, grounding is still acceptable, when I was a kid, my dad caught me smoking, and he beat my ass with belt (still smoking) but damn some of these kids need a good ass whoopin'

Tbh I think people play that up too much. A smack isn't wrong in certain situations as long as it's not too much. Legally you are allowed to smack your child in the UK (lol sounds harsher than it is) as long as you don't bruise or scratch them.

An 'ass whoopin' as you describe that sounds a bit harsh and doesn't mean because it hurts more/for longer they learn a lesson faster than not.

So 'ass whoopin' didn't work! :p

    • With the current hardware prices Microsoft should lift the restriction. Then if you have the correct TPM then allow you to use X feature, if you don't have the correct TPM then don't but still actually let you run windows. 11. With a disclaimer during install that X features would be unavailable.
    • It's good for recycling of course. But commence inflation of a second hand RAM bubble and price gouging on DDR 4 inventory in 3... 2... 1...
    • Bypassed Windows 11 shows surprising stability on ancient, completely unsupported hardware by Sayan Sen When Windows 11 was first released, one of the most complained-about issues with the new desktop Microsoft OS was its higher system requirements, which pushed many relatively modern and powerful processors and devices onto the officially unsupported list. Thankfully, they have not been updated again for the base OS, though systems require four times the memory and storage if they want to run AI-powered apps and features. As such, Windows 11 technically runs on 4GB of memory, and there is no imposed restriction on the generation of memory it supports. Speaking of memory, prices are extremely high nowadays for hardware, especially DDR5 and DDR4 kits due to the current silicon shortage, and there are also reports of it affecting DDR2 as well, and it might only be a matter of time before even DDR1 gets affected. Before that could happen, an enthusiast took an ancient DDR1-based system and decided to try out Windows 11 on it to see how well the modern OS would fare on such hardware. The system runs an outdated graphics card interface standard based on AGP, or Advanced Graphics Port, called AGP 3.0 or AGP8x. AGP was essentially succeeded by the modern PCI Express (PCIe) bus standard. The user behind the experiment is retro hardware enthusiast Omores, who built the system around an ASRock ConRoe865PE motherboard based on Intel's i865PE chipset from way back in 2003, around the time when AGP was still in fashion. What made this board special back in the day was its unusual support for newer Core 2 Duo and even Core 2 Quad processors while still retaining older DDR1 memory support and an AGP8X graphics slot, making it an ideal bridge or link between two vastly different generations. Powering the machine was Intel's Core 2 Quad Q6600 alongside 3GB of DDR1 RAM and an ATI Radeon HD 4650 AGP graphics card, one of the final and most capable GPUs released for the aging AGP interface. While installing Windows 11 itself was relatively easy by bypassing Microsoft's hardware checks, getting the graphics card fully functional proved to be some challenge. Microsoft had quietly dropped native AGP support after the earliest releases of Windows 10, meaning newer versions of Windows no longer include the necessary Graphics Address Remapping Table (GART) drivers required for proper AGP acceleration. Without them, AGP graphics cards typically boot up, though with limited functionality, and can often throw a Code 43 error in Device Manager. To work around the limitation, Omores extracted Intel's legacy AGP440 SYS driver from an early Windows 10 release and paired it with a modified INF file so Windows 11 would correctly recognize the chipset. Following this and combined with AMD's final 64-bit Catalyst AGP drivers from 2012, the Radeon HD 4650 was able to operate with full AGP 8X acceleration intact. The result was said to be surprisingly usable for hardware that is over two decades old. Hardware-accelerated H.264 video playback worked correctly and benefited apps like Firefox, while legacy applications and games ran without major graphical issues. The system also successfully completed the 3DMark 2001 benchmark, although performance naturally lagged behind what the same hardware achieves under Windows 7, which is significantly lighter than Windows 11. There was, however, one unavoidable limitation as Microsoft's Windows 11 version 24H2 introduces a mandatory SSE4.2 CPU instruction requirement that cannot be bypassed through installer modifications or registry tweaks. Since no AGP-era processor supports SSE4.2, Windows 11 version 23H2 effectively becomes the final release capable of running on such systems. Regardless, it is still a very cool feat and quite fascinating to see just how stable Windows 11 turned out to be on such unfamiliar hardware. Source: Omores (Patreon) via O_MORES (Reddit)
    • That will only really help other players that are also responsible for creating the problem.
    • Well, it's good to know that they have found a workaround to a problem that they helped create, I guess...
