Poll: Do you like Ctrl-Alt-Del?

[tumpler]

I've stumbled upon the fact that a lot of people don't like CAD. I want to know how many people like it and if not what don't you like about it?

 

[Dusty Donuts]

Alt-Ctrl-Del is pretty helpful, but it's just so freaking slow it's a love-hate kind of thing.

Key solution for tracking down and terminating rogue processes.

 

[Agayek]

It's all about 8BT IMO. That + How I Killed Your Master are pro.

 

[GreyWolf257]

Well, sometimes you have to use it. If my computer screws up, I like to know there is something I can do other than manually shutting down my computer.

 

[ottenni]

I like everyone else am going to make a witty comment about how i am glad for those three wondrous buttons on my keyboard that i use for shutting down non-responsive programs. Or i could say i don't care as i'm not into web comics.

If a program on your computer freezes, I don't see any other way of fixing it aside from that.

The Windows task manager - useful

The internet comic - not amazing, it's no Penny Arcade or Cyanide and Happiness, but I have got a few giggles from them.

Spoiler: Like this one

 

[Chester41585]

Yes, I like it. I use it whenever I know I can use it. Otherwise, I just yank the power cord and restart my computer.

Unless you're talking about the comic. In which case, I like the comic, but the recent plot arc the writer just got through was total horse shit. The comic is about gaming. Not abortion, fake marriages and alcoholism. Stick to the original plan, please.

As a keyboard function: Perfect.
As a comic: Boring, repetitive and a waste of time.

 

[Skeleon]

Nah, I don't.
Not because it's bad - I couldn't judge on that - but simply because I haven't read a lot of them.

 

[PhunkyPhazon]

Didn't we just have this topic? Anyways, I like it well enough when it's just parodying games, but when it uses the typical characters I don't really care either way. I can't really criticize those segments for not being funny though, Buckley obviously isn't trying to be humorous when he writes those.

Also, sometimes the game parodies can be really bad. Example:

Spoiler: My example

So unfunny, even the crickets refuse to chirp.

It's one of the things IBM's David Bradley will always be remembered for. Before that, whenever a program crashed the machine, you'd have to hard reset the thing, which was arduous and slow in those ancient times. Originally meant to be ctrl+alt+esc, he found it too easy to bump, so tried ctrl+alt+del instead, which was harder to bump in those days.

Ctrl+Alt+Del, IBM invented it, Microsoft made it famous.

 

[j0frenzy]

I really hate it when people say this in threads, but for the love of god Search Bar, please. This exact thread was done recently and it was done before that.
And my answer is still that I do not like it.

 

[Blanks]

Depending on the speed of your computer and how many heavy programs your running it can be very useful, though i still end up with a frozen computer for like ten minutes >.<

(if your talking about the comic i don't care about it ... cause it sucks)
