Windows 10 Has Released
-
I am normally one who likes to look "forward" in technology...but my main home server may remain on Windows 8.1 for now because of one thing...WINDOWS MEDIA CENTER and let me tell you why and it is for such a simple reason. We have tons of digital photos...tons. And the best way to enjoy them is in a slideshow with music, both shuffling and random. Windows Media Center via the XBOX 360 extender does a killer job on this and nothing has come close. On the XBOX One, the OneDrive app does shuffle pictures but the algorithm is horrible and it is the same "shuffle" each time or close to it...I can PIN the music app next to it but it is a poor replacement for MEDIA CENTER. I suppose I could run a virtual 8.1 and Media Center but pretty soon, I hope to retire my 360 and be just one XBOX One. Waiting for the compatibility with 360 games to gain ground AND for one single Kinect game to work or be ported...Kinect Party...kids love that game and it is always a hit at party's....

I have 12K. How about you?
I'll check tonight! :)...
-
I'm guessing that I will be at 13K in a month since I am about to travel to a new country and that always creates a flurry of picture taking.
-
I don't know if it was because I just had to many to bother sorting, or I got bored, but about a year after I got my Canon DLSR (almost 10 years ago now) I stopped taking pictures.
During that year I easily took over 3000 pictures, granted many were of the same thing.

The inside of the lens cap?

lol - noooo.
When I shoot pictures I normally take 3-4 in case of blur, etc.

I find all of the pictures that I take of the inside of the case are blurry

lol maybe you should stop taking pictures of the inside of your case.

Are you showing off that you can take pictures of your monitor?
-
LOl - no, I was showing off that 10240 is in fact out - not that you didn't believe when I posted it.. I was just showing it off just to show it off.
-
You could use a traditional screenshot mechanism for that

Lets all start singing up @Dashrender for spam newsletters.

Ha ha, his email has a dirty word in it.

Are they still going to make us wait til July 29th to get windows 10. It used to make sense in the past to wait til the RTM had been out so PC makers could have the new OS on computers in stores for people to play with. rather than doing an upgrade an possibly hating it because their computer was too slow. Now, very few people will be upgrading to a new computer for windows 10 so Really very little reason to wait.

I guess you can still sign up and get build 10240 NOW, which is as close to RTM as it gets and then you still get RTM when it is officially out...

*&^$ didn't realize it had my email address in there. I'd appreciate it if you'd delete at least the picture from your post.

@Dashrender It's too late now. All the spam bots have already screen scraped the image and subscribed you to Cat Facts Hourly, Cat Facts Weekly, FurBaby Facts Monthly, and Arachnids R Us.

it's a really good thing I moved away from that address primarily.
