Hey, except for a few grand issues like Search failing with
special/technical searches rather than simple filename search, 85% of this
OS is now great.
I love it now.

And can you guess how many processes show up in TaskManager? 26.
ONLY TWENTY SIX. My IE8 starts up lightning fast and swings by all sites
except videos, for certain sites w/FlashPlayer & Videos I enable
CompatibilityView which aligns those older sites to IE8.

Applications startup as if they were already loaded into Memory, faster than
in WinXP. Who knew? It feels like quad-core at 4GHz, seriously.
Everything is momentary as if it were loaded from RAM
This OS is still a failure, however, versus WinXP.

Are you shocked to hear "failure" after my praises, do I contradict myself?
No. Because most people are far from my tenacity and just by education,
hobbies and profession I alway stune up things to perfection. My cheap car
leaves far more expensive models wondering what rocket had just passed them
on LIE Expressway. I enjoy tinkering with technology.
It took me 2 weeks (?) to tune up Vista beast to be a polished fast,
bug-free beast. It's more convoluted than was tuning WindowsXP.

I spent several days in Registry, GroupPolicies, SecPolicies, filesystem
digging out and blatantly renaming & moving system files no one is supposed
to touch.
I "touched" Winsxs, system32, and whatever else. Most Windows customers
today, however, are not that technical, it's not 1995 and what they perceive
is an OS SLOWER than WinXP, filled with bugs, non working search for some
situations, flawed file processing over the Network, IPv6 issues, UAC
inserting his 2 cents here and there, popups, alerts, slowdowns, etc....

I've none of those, but it takes an effort. Some people don't want to or
incapable of learning and will blast Vista.

You are now eligible to receive the following certificate, which is
available from Room 101 (sic)

NB You would have received a distinction had you not tampered with 'The
System', a thought crime for which marks were deducted.


Please proceed to Windows 7 for the next series of lessons.

Yeah... also:

Ok, good idea so long as you don't go out in the midday sun with your copper
helmet on, to avoid the "saucepan effect".

Wearing copper helmet to prevent government from irradiating brains via
Sattelite, not to mention blocking cellphones & computers RF hard.

30 years ago people weren't concerned with "midday sun".
Sun used to equal HEALTH.

Now it's a source of skin cancer, overheating, etc, I am not saying
MiamiBeach, FL was freezing in 1970's, but we were mor erelaxed about sun.

We're destroying Planet Earth, and helmet... it maybe a joke, but one day
given Sattelites increasing downlink power we'll be exposed to sizable RF
radiation, it's already an issue.
Brain cancers have risen sharply since cellphone era began.

remember they called Leonardo Da Vinci, Einstein, etc "crazy". I am not
crazy, I just know how things work.
And in case you wonder... I am seriously tempted to get that copper helmet
for real, only thing stopping me is a possible "weird" reputation, problems
at work, with women, etc.

We were more relaxed, but 30 years ago we were supposedly heading for an Ice
Age.

[mounts soapbox]

The sun dropped marginally in activity / temperature [1940-1980], the
earth's temperature correspondingly dropped, and the experts concluded that
we had a chilly future.

In more recent decades [1980+], the sun's temperature rose, the earth's
temperature correspondingly rose, and the experts concluded we're witnessing
indefinite global warming.

The main difference between the two, other than the temperature direction,
is that now it's all our fault, and we must be carbon-taxed for our crime.
Exhaling CO2, using an aerosol, and taking the liberty of expecting a
carrier bag when shopping, are apparently the main factors in causing the
sun (and hence the earth) to rise in temperature.

Whatever happened to real science?

Meanwhile Africans are not permitted to use their own natural resources to
raise their standard of living, and must instead starve to death on solar
power, as if that were somehow preferable.

Cellphones are a worry (I use a hands-free set precisely because of this),
but personally I'm more worried about what we eat / drink ie
genetically-modified foods etc

For example, Aspartame, in testing, apparently caused brain cancer in rats
before it was unleashed on the unsuspecting public. It's now in virtually
every soft drink on the market.

So sipping a Coke, while wearing the helmet, would probably counter any of
its beneficial effects.

Being "weird" may have deterrent value eg in warding off transhumanist
types. They tend to prefer their metal bits permanently inside their bodies,
rather than stuck on their heads.

Also some women go for the eccentric 'mad genius' inventor types, for which
a copper kettle on the head, would certainly not appear out of place.

But also:

Hysteria is big business. There's money in it. That means, there's money in
Global Warming scaremongering.

Fission power is big business. There's money in it NOW. Build more fission
plants! (and if they blow up half the planet... well, then there's money in
hysteria, so..)

Fusion power is as uninteresting as the ice age. It may be the solution to
not ruining our planet in the long term, but (ho-hum) it won't help our stock
figures this quarter. Therefore no point in investing in it. So we won't.

OK maybe.

But in High School I remember first time being taught about Global Warming.
Where you were warned about Ice Age approaching, I am not sure.
Look there're long term & short term tendencies.

The long term is indeed Ice Age will be here some day, problem is you don't
see a freight train approaching you and worry about out of state train
somewhere on the opposite coast of the country.
Ice Ages will be ages form now.

But Global Warming is an accelerating and near-future possibility, during
our, children & grandgrandchildren's lives we'll have to deal with it, not
with Ice Ages.
In other words one thing offsets the other for the near future, then Ice Age
takes over but who cares? We'll be 1000 times dead before Ice is here.
