Joke's on you, I don't seed.

your punishment will be in the afterlife, my friend.
>>55263868
Not if I decide to shoot up an Apple store like that thing in Orlando.
>>55263824
How does that work? I've never seen a file made in Linux because nobody runs it, so can it be renamed in Windows or will it not even download?
>>55263824
Any Windows after XP just removes the offending characters. Or if the directory is too long it will alert you and truncate it.

>>55263926
Nope. Still have to use 3rd party deleter or Linux liveCD

No you don't. Windows Defender which comes preinstalled will do this for you and prompt you. Have you ever used windows?

it's like you don't want to do the world a favor
>>55264004
umm no. Idk for sure about defender, but in windows 7 with mse I've had at least 3 times adownload from torrent with a folder structure and files exceeding that limit. those files could not be moved, folders could not be deleted. I strongly doubt that defender would have fixed that, since it's not its job at all.
>>55264073
I guess he meant using argumenti ad populum makes you a cuck. Kinda like If everyone jumped off a cliff would you aswell, currently you would with that mindset
>>55264093
>>55264044
This was a pretty big thing for defender. it does this to help protect against malicious files hiding themselves with unreadable file names/directories. It requires indexing to be on, windows defender to have admin privileges and be updated, and compression to be off. But it does do this.

>not using a flamethrower
It's like you want them to die quickly
>>55264125
So, from 10?
Yeah. Still using 8.1 as it's more stable and I can uninstall all metro shit. Also some programs don't work on 10. Microsoft needs its testers back. Some pajeets isnt enough
>>55264109
He's an idiot for seeing argumentum ad populum in "I use a 90% market share OS so I don't have to deal with that problem, while you use a 1% market share OS so you do."
It's not argumentum ad populum when the popularity literally avoids problems.
>>55263909
where you see this isn't usually long paths, its characters in filenames that windows can't deal with. The most common being colons, which show up because linux screenshot utilities like to name files "screenshot at 2016-06-26 12:00:00.png" or similar.
There's also some reserved names that windows won't hear of. "CON", "AUX", "LPT1", and some others. They're device names that date back to the murky days of DOS 1, 2, and 3.
>>55264171
thanks for the tip, now naming random files those also
>>55264149
No from 7 forward. 10s maximum path limit is substantially larger but Im sure it still includes this feature. I haven't encountered any application incompatibilities however. So I use 10, it runs quite a bit better than 8 and gets better battery life. But the OP is mostly shitposting surely.
>>55264188
It will just delete those files you idiot. You are only wasting your time
>>55264085
That's what he just said.
>>55264223
>not only are windows users not able to open this file they want from my torrent, their OS will automatically delete it

I like making torrents of programs that Linux can't run.

NTFS is pretty competent, most of the arbitrary limitations are from the Windows API that preserves backwards compatibility down to Win 3.1

As if market share was a legitimate argument on a hobbyist board.
Maybe in your next meeting, or if you were a telemarketer.
But as a hobbyist, market share doesn't fucking matter.
