So it's Linux hardware combined with Samsung software?
Good luck with that.

This one is also funny, and it's from the web simulator shipped with the SDK:
I... what?

Linux hardware
What is this even?
Linux hardware combined with Samsung software?
You mean like their phones?

Maybe they hired someone from the Enlightenment team?

The "make it so" makes me think they were trying to do a Star Trek: The Next Generation quote, but I've watched a lot of Star Trek and nobody on that show ever said "set main batteries to auto-fire cycle". Which also happens to be mostly gibberish.
-
-
They're obviously not all from the same thing. The "Make it so" could well be an allusion to TNG and the "batteries" line to something else,
though I don't know whatBattlestar Galactica .
-
Not to mention the first line is from The Wizard of Awes.
-
Not to mention
I was hoping it was sufficiently obvious that it didn't need to be mentioned.
-
And next time you launch it, the program shows "Fatal error: software is corrupted. Please delete everything and reinstall".
Because recovering from unexpected states is hard! And transactions haven't been invented yet!
[mini_rant]
...actually though, they haven't, at least not in Linux file systems that I know about. A program should be able to lock a folder, begin a transaction, and then do whatever it wants knowing all changes will be reverted if it crashes in the middle.Why aren't we demanding more from file systems? Databases improve continuously to this day, yet when it comes to storing files it feels like we have barely changed since the 1970s. [/mini_rant]

Well it wasn't sufficiently obvious that the second line might have a different origination from the third, so.....

No fish were harmed in the making of this seriousness!

NTFS supports this since Windows Vista, but transactions cannot span across volumes.
-
* TwelveBaud mumbles something about the Distributed Transaction Coordinator service...
-
This is what I was picturing at first.
-
But Microsoft keep talking about removing transactional NTFS on the grounds that no-one's using it anyway.
-
no-one's using it anyway.
Can you imagine placing a lock on the entire system root on accident? Everything would grind to a halt because no writes would be allowed!
-
-
Surely you'd need admin privileges for that?

BTRFS snapshots can -with a little bit of planning by the distro manager- be used for this sort of thing. Though, [at the moment] you might need to enter some sort of system management mode to deal with the need to remount an older snapshot into the FS tree if shit went tits up. (Or symlinks might work just fine, I'm not 100% sure. :) ) (BTW, don't bother me with the "BTRFS ate my cat!" stories. It WORKSFORME.)
Databases improve continuously to this day...
Don't databases use a journal to keep track of what they've done and what they intend to do? Sounds like this shitty installer could do exactly the same thing.
-
Which any installer worth their salt would do? You know, the easiest place to find :WTF: code that people naturally grant said Admin privileges to?

Damn, don't use the emulator for making Tizen apps. In all their genius, the powers that be decided that the emulator should work totally different than target machines. It's so different that some core app components (let's say Webkit for example) have to be built with some magic flags to even compile on the emulator. You have to know two truths about it:
- The emulator is shit.
- The emulator lies.
Have a nice day.
-
Does it say "Charge capacitators to electrify cloud!" when it connects to the network, too?
-
I was just fooling around after installing this SDK crap. But it kind of helps to figure out why the hell an app won't start on the TV.
-
If you want to test your app, get a TV. And I'm pretty serious about that. The emulator doesn't work like a TV. I think the web runtime doesn't even compile for x86, on which the emulator runs. Also, there can be major platform differences between TV models, so working on one TV doesn't mean it will work on another (especially in India etc.).
To put things into perspective - nobody in Samsung uses the emulator. Not platform developers, not runtime developers, not app developers. That piece of crap is just one big lie and another reason for developers to cry.
-
Yeah, we have two and are in the process of getting another one. BTW, this new multitasking thing looks like such a hack that now we have a bunch of
if( x === 'tizen')
flags all around.
-
That's how Tizen code is made.

I'm going to hazard a guess that this should be accompanied by music from Queen.And Brian Blessed.
And Max Sydow.

@blakeyrat said:

Google leads to Battlestar Galactica.
Different kind of batteries, then.
-
1. The emulator is shit.
2. The emulator lies.So in that case...
- [spoiler]Fuck you Jeff! "3.", I wrote "3."![/spoiler] The emulator is completely and utterly useless?
-
Exactly.
-
Heh, gotta love Samsung. Incidentally, I recently purchased a TV. I'll leave it to everyone's imagination to work out which brand I did not choose.
-
The irony is - they make the absolute best hardware. If someone uses Tizen TV as a dumb TV or display panel, and ignores all the "smart" stuff - it's actually great.
-
Yeah, that's the problem, I wanted a TV that won't complain and call me a bitch every time I decide to watch Netflix.
-
Mine's luckily not a Tizen TV AFAIK.
However all of the Smart features other than the Apps have slowly disappeared.
-
they make the absolute best hardware.
Surely that must be Stockholm syndrome.
I still wonder what idiot came up with touch buttons for an LCD monitor (you can't find them in a darkened room) or why my backlight of another monitor simply died.
-
You can check hardware reviews of their panels. They are indeed brilliant. And with quantum dot technology, things are just going to get better. Unfortunately, they have to spoil it all with Tizen.

Very much so.

Yeah, that idiot goes in the big line against the wall. The one with my GAU-8 pointed at it.

I was really disappointed when this topic didn't contain any DiscoXSS that made the title literal.

Except that's funny, not abusive.
Also, from a Minecraft mod:
public TConstruct() { if (Loader.isModLoaded("Natura")) { logger.info("Natura, what are we going to do tomorrow night?"); LogManager.getLogger("Natura").info("TConstruct, we're going to take over the world!"); } else { logger.info("Preparing to take over the world"); } EnvironmentChecks.verifyEnvironmentSanity(); }
-
Which also happens to be mostly gibberish.
No, "batteries" is what they call the big guns on ships, so that means "set the guns to fire automatically."
Also, it's apparently BattleStar Galactica, and they dropped something from the quote.
-
And next time you launch it, the program shows "Fatal error: software is corrupted. Please delete everything and
