I fucking hate the term "App" when people talk about a program on their phone... or PC, or their fuckin Peloton or whatever else might be capable of running an application. It just seems so moronic.

You can guess what happened then. He’s getting an adapter that supports locking commands so he can hook it up to his computer and lock with fatxplorer or Xboxhdm. Don’t feel too bad about about the word replace. I used to cringe when people would say “surf the web” and “the net” back in the day. Also “in the cloud” still just kind of irks me for some reason.

Lol Oh my fuckin' GOD Frosty. The term "cloud" is one of the most user-friendly, retarded tech terms there is. "I have it on the CLOUD, man." Oh! You mean you have it on a server? I guess the industry wanted a term and concept that people could easily grasp, and they decided that the term "Remote Server" just wasn't very marketable. Damn, the internet is fuckin' LAME now... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More modern terms and slang though...too many of those have a downright Idiocracy feel to them, and I don't care to live in a world like that, or at least to be exposed to it. Those get filtered. There's enough stress in a day without the news or a blogger or someone talking to me like I'm a retard. Didn't wanna derail things with a rant but it seems OP's problem is practically solved, so yeah... I had no idea other people hate that dumbass word. No joke I was genuinely taken aback.

I remember when the “cloud” was just a symbol on our network topology diagrams and no one referred to it as the “cloud”. Lol Yes it certainly seems like we dumbed down a whole lot of things that were already pretty self explanatory for marketing purposes to make them palatable to folks that don’t really want to learn even the basics. Now I feel old. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly does feel that way and nope it’s not just you. I consistently find myself shaking my head sometimes. Lol Yeah hopefully the OP’s problem will soon be remedied. As long as OS, adapter, and software play nice (though a tweak will probably be needed from what I recall) he will be back to normal.
