    Lots of reports of October forced update deleting peoples files. I reported in another thread back in April that a Windows update deleted my game saves and settings. Back up any files you have in default User and Documents folders to another drive or partition ASAP!

    What pray smell OS do you use?

    I have gone to Win 8.1 on my gaming PC with all updates and security disabled because it's just for games and security can fuck off. I only play free games and hacked games anyway, no important accounts used at all. Windows 10 PC only for my general browsing and e-commerce security.

    I am so glad Valve has spent so much time and effort along with AMD and Bethesda and others to make Linux the gaming platform of the future, because if I never have to buy another Microsoft product it will be too soon. AMD's new Ryzen processors and the new Vulcan drivers and whatnot are all rapidly coming together into an extremely fast and capable gaming operating system, and it should start to really mature sometime in the next two years. Free at last, free at last, free at last from fucking Microsoft and Intel screwing everybody every damned chance they get.

    Ohhh. That's interesting.
    I seem to have lost some music recently, following an update.
