Some Brief Thoughts
by John on Jun.10, 2009, under Main Stuff
I can understand why I would need to re-load software after a system restore. This is a perfectly normal activity, part and parcel with having your machine cleaned out and reset to the zero point. That’s fine with me. What I don’t much care for is when programs that allow you to have multiple profiles don’t carry over common-sense settings between the different profiles– for example, Eclipse… It’s a great tool, don’t get me wrong, but for juggling projects, I’ve always had separate workspaces, and when I have to re-setup dozens of settings that should be standard in the first place– not to mention that I have likely forgotten that those things were not as they should be from the start– I tend to get frustrated, with a capital “I want to take a broadsword to the bloody machine”.
Second to this is, when I try to get someone to help me, they take one look at the trackball and freak out.
