A brief summary of what's in My Documents

Posted by wazu on Jan. 3, 2008, 1:23 a.m.

Hmm… this hasn't been done before has it? - A sort of summary of all the random crap I saved =D

Anyway, first of all; I don't like "My Documents". If there ever was a less secure location on any OS, I've yet to find it. You want to run a "system recovery"? - Bye bye My Documents… And yet…. I still have alot of old (and SOME new) files in it, and that is what I will share with you on this fine summer (or winter in the North) day.

Okay, lets begin:

1. Alot of applications and games store preferences and other data in subfolders, so I have about 50 such folders spread over my accounts (I have two, one I use, and the other I store crap in).

2. Plenty of unfinished games; usually containing a fairly good idea or gameplay aspect. Most can be broken into 3 catagories:

Fractal generators: - I used to be so OBSESSED with these, and as a result, I have dozens of them.

Game engines: - Oh dear, these never quite became games, so I quickly tidied up the code and added notes to make engines…. maybe I'll use them someday…

Image correctors/effects: - I didn't always have photoshop, so I wrote unfathomable numbers of these - from HDR to automatic image correction - all obsolete now that I have photoshop.

3. I have alot of images that I will have spotted on the internet and gone "I MUST AQUIRE THAT!!!", so I save it directly into the default location - My Documents.

4. Files I was using as part of a video, and forgot to delete afterwards… I have 15 Gb of these.

5. Music. - Ranging from freakin' 1337 songs to god-awful pieces of shit. - I have alot of these.

6. Videos of car crashes….. I love having them around… not sure why. - Funniest movie I've ever seen? - Crash-test of a car called "Jiangling Motors Landwind" - oh my god… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7Ts94rjr4M

7. Uhhh… lost my train of though…. I watched that video again…. roflmaocopterwowomfg.

Well, bye…. and watch that video…. don't buy that car…. EVER.

I'd do one, by My Documents are still empty.

Hey ZH, I know you don't like me, but at least I have the capacity not to let my opinion of you as a person affect how I respond to your blogs.

You need to seriously let go, just have the maturity to drop the damn thing now, we're all well over it.

@Everyone else, well, I'm glad this was a fairly good idea. - Maybe one day I'll do one on my Game Maker folder (=P - I have alot of useless crap in there.)

No, my friend, you need to realize and admit when you are wrong. When you so blatantly insult somebody without even checking to see if you have a metaphorical leg to stand on, you reveal to everybody how unintelligent you truly are. People like you are nothing more than parasites, sucking the life blood out of [mostly] friendly communities such as this.

Good day.

"Good day" was so cliche :D

But I'm not taking any sides either. I don't even know what this is about.

To be honest, neither do I; but I want it to stop now…
