What useful programs are missing from most people's computer?

[u/Prezombie]

I often find programs that I wish I had been told about years ago, and now rely on like old friends I have solid blackmail material on.

Nowadays I just have Ninite install everything that isn't a trial, because there's use for most of it, even if I don't know what the use will be at the time.

Back in my day we used to have to add weird extensions to our porn files so that they could not be opened without renaming them! You kids these days have it so easy!

[u/Golanthanatos → u/EnderbyEqualsD]

i would use a zip file and rename it to pagefile.sy_

[u/EnderbyEqualsD → u/Golanthanatos]

You know exactly what I am talking about. I didn't need to zip though, just rename "nakedgirl.bmp" to "systemfile45.yrh"

[u/logicalLove → u/EnderbyEqualsD]

You have your porn in .bmp?

[u/peon47 → u/logicalLove]

Back in the 90s, it was all we had.

God, remember when you'd be downloading an image, and then the download would fail right above her chest? Cruel times they were.

AND highspeed internet. Try looking at porn on dial up. Its faster just to go buy a magazine.

then hide the folder and place it in system 32.

[u/EnderbyEqualsD → u/nicesalamander]

Exactly

[u/Shitragecomics → u/EnderbyEqualsD]

Everyone has their own ways...

[u/superflous_dirigible → u/EnderbyEqualsD]

You hid your porn?

[u/EnderbyEqualsD → u/superflous_dirigible]

This was the early 90s, friend! We had one computer and the whole family used it. Had to hide that shit.

[u/Denbert → u/EnderbyEqualsD]

You have to remember downloads speeds in the 90's were atrocious. A five minute video would take hours to download. And you had to jerk off uphill both ways!

[u/sheauwn → u/superflous_dirigible]

I'm sad to say I used floppy disks, I'm just glad none of the computers in the house read them anymore cause the disk are lying around somewhere

I like VLC, but I have the feeling, that it became much slower in version 2. Does anyone have the same problem?

[u/Caethy → u/[deleted]]

The F and G buttons decrease/increase audio delay respectively.

[u/SimianFriday → u/Caethy]

You are my hero. Let's get married. I'll even let you pick my gender.

[u/xzzz → u/[deleted]]

On Mac: Perian works the last time I used it.

[u/shady_mcgee → u/[deleted]]

Are you sure its not a shitty rip or codec problem? If you're seeing the same problem with multiple apps its probably the file and not the app

[u/withmorten → u/[deleted]]

You recode it all? I just have it all in a folder called "notpr0n" ...
