[Ayah]

That's a retardedly useful folder. Everyone should have make one of those. (at least people who like to tinker)

 

[blackangst1]

Wow nice find! I found a better pic of the Godmode folder...it contains 311 items! Holy sh*t!!!

 

[JackMDS]

BTW. No need to call it GodMode

Any thing that is allowed in Folder name with a dot and the numerical string would work.

Mine goes by

Yes We Can.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

Try it on your own risk.

Don't try this on Vista. Explorer got stuck in a crash loop when I tried it yesterday :^D

 

[Tsavo]

Crashed Explorer on W7/64 after a few minutes.

lol @ the crashes.

I'm trying to figure out the point of this when you can just search in the toolbar for whatever you are trying to do and have it find it automatically.

Also, is that editor male or female? It even says in her bio that she's changed genders once since becoming part of CNet.

I guess that behaving in a vicious manner, makes some people feeling good.

1. It did not say that she is the originator of the idea. She is just reporting it.

2. What gender (or chaging it) has to do with Technology?

Ignorant are bad in Technology. Many Men and women are good in it regardless of their gender.

Madame Curie was a woman. If not for her, many of us would still be busy growing up potatoes, and at best listening to a Radio.

Prof. Ada Yonath received the 2009 Nobel Prize for Chemistry.

Ada Yonat is a woman.

How could you have possibly taken my post for saying women are not capable of reporting on technology? I would have pointed that creature out whether we were talking about military hardware or the effects of womans rights on sewing and knitting in the 21st century.

works for me with vista 32

 

[lxskllr]

works for me with vista 32

Maybe it's a 64bit issue. It's not important enough(for me) to chase down.

 

[PuppettMaster001]

I have it working on Windows 7 64bit v7100.

 

[BW86]

cool - I'll try this when I get home

 

[vaylon]

Thanks, seems like a cool tip.

For those that are worried about the writers gender or sexual preference or maybe even a lack of? Why would someone go looking for that info, maybe thinking of asking them on a date?
I know it would be awkward if your a guy wanting a date with another guy and go for a hot dog and end up eating a taco or even the reverse.

I think people are just so used to digging through layers and layers of of menus and folders. That the search thing is just taking time. I know that was my favorite part of vista and immediately made me switch. Also many people prob dont know about the search feature.

Its pat. Its one ugly dude trying to look like a girl. I think lol. But he/she/it usually has pretty good stuff, breaks stuff down nicely.

Why would someone go looking for that info? They wouldn't. It is posted at the end of the article. There is nothing to go looking for, it is there plain as day for anyone who can read to see.

During her years at CNET News, Ina Fried has changed beats several times, changed genders once, and covered both of the Pirates of Silicon Valley. These days, most of her attention is focused on Microsoft.

To those that the gender of the Reporter is causing anxiety attacks. :\

Personally, I don't see how this is useful.

If nothing else, you could look at it like a catalog. There may be applications you forgot about, or never knew in the first place.

 

[nemesismk2]

Sounds like a cool tip, god mode here I come lol

 

[sivart]

I use it on my HTPC, fewer clicks through the control panel and don't need to pick up the keyboard.

If it's that useful, maybe Microsoft could learn from the experience and maybe, oh I don't know, officially provide a central location from where all these functions could be performed.

I remember this being discussed in the past here. As far as transsexuals go, she's one where the transformation just doesn't visually work. There are vastly better looking trannies in the world of porn, for example. But this is really not relevant to the thread.
