Windows 8 and Norton Antivirus just made me chuckle
-
Just had the following chuckle, a collegue at work is setting up a HP X2[^] First thing he did on the laptop is remove the virus called Norton Anti virus and now Windows 8 has been doing a repair for over an hour. currently he is speechless on the whole event..

When bored I entertain myself by going to the Funan Centre[^], ordering a desktop and after all the paperwork is done I ask what bloatware is installed, when they refuse to remove the crap I can cancel the order and walk out in a huff. When I actually need a desktop I go to a small operator who has a bunch of tools for bloatware removal - great people.

It's complex to remove, but I found the same process John McAfee recommends[^] for McAfee Antivirus works fine as well.

Thanks for warning about it being borderline NSFW. X|
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.

You are a right prick, aren't you. I reckon I went to the Funan Centre in late 1999 or early 2000. By Christ I walked away with a very large collection of software at the time.

True, there is no value in growing old gracefully. Around 2000 stuff from Funan could be considered value, not any more, they shut down the pirates and it is nearly all big operators in small shops. There are a couple with 4-5 outlets in the building, weird way of setting up.
