- Comment on ... 10 months ago:
What in Davy Jones’ locker did ye just bark, ye scurvy bilgerat? I’ll have ye know I be the meanest cutthroat on the seven seas, and I’ve led numerous raids on fishing villages, and raped over 300 wenches. I be trained in hit-and-run pillaging and be the deadliest with a pistol of all the captains on the high seas. Ye be nothing to me but another source o’ swag. I’ll have yer guts for garters and keel haul ye like never been done before, hear me true. You think ye can hide behind your newfangled computing device? Think twice on that, scallywag. As we parley I be contacting my secret network o’ pirates across the sea and yer port is being tracked right now so ye better prepare for the typhoon, weevil. The kind o’ monsoon that’ll wipe ye off the map. You’re sharkbait, fool. I can sail anywhere, in any waters, and can kill ye in o’er seven hundred ways, and that be just with me hook and fist. Not only do I be top o’ the line with a cutlass, but I have an entire pirate fleet at my beck and call and I’ll damned sure use it all to wipe yer arse off o’ the world, ye dog. If only ye had had the foresight to know what devilish wrath your jibe was about to incur, ye might have belayed the comment. But ye couldn’t, ye didn’t, and now ye’ll pay the ultimate toll, you buffoon. I’ll shit fury all over ye and ye’ll drown in the depths o’ it. You’re fish food now!
- Comment on Does a cloned drive have the same drive letter as the original? 10 months ago:
Ummm… as I said, everything up until Windows 7 won’t boot, not unless is WinPE based. If it’s a regular install, no, it won’t. Windows 8 and above, yes, it will boot… and it won’t throw errors. Will everything regarding 3rd party software work? No. Can it be fixed? No, no source available. Then what’s the point of booting from anything other than C? IDK, you tell me 😂.
- Comment on Does a cloned drive have the same drive letter as the original? 10 months ago:
Really? Try booting Windows XP from a drive that is not marked as C: somewhere in registry and in config files. Even if you do manage to change the root from C to something else, it simply refuses to boot, end of story. People have tried it, it just doesn’t work with. With Win8 and above, yes, it does work, but some programs will out right refuse to work (cuz they’re gonna look for C:\%WINDIR%\system32 for the libs it needs to run, and they won’t be able to find them).
But yes, you are correct, drive letters were in use before DOS.
- Comment on Does a cloned drive have the same drive letter as the original? 10 months ago:
Unfortunatelly, drive letters are reminants from tye DOS days and early Windows days (anything that wasn’t NT based has to have drive letters), so they have to stay for backwards compatibility.
Actually, up until Windows 8, drive letters were required for booting as well (which can be seen im the safe mode boot screen). Windows 8 and above doesn’t require them though (can be seen in safe mode with debugging enabled), but they are there and will stay there for a very, very long time. Windows can’t just part ways with them, there are just way too many things tied to them… legacy stuff, but legacy stuff that everyone still uses.

It’s converted to webp once uploaded on Lemmy. The BE supports it, but not every Lemmy instance is set up this way (though most are).
