those are the steps I follow

no atm I'm putting Win8.1 back on the USB

The_IT_Guy_You_Don't_Like

okay

Praxis Ashelin

8:28 PM

then I will try to fix the MBR as per suggestion of someone else

The_IT_Guy_You_Don't_Like

but let me ask which disk do you select as i know you have two

Praxis Ashelin

after that I'll try resetting to factory settings

@The_IT_Guy_You_Don't_Like I just try both

The_IT_Guy_You_Don't_Like

don't mark them both as active

just mark one of them as active

Praxis Ashelin

well no, not both at the same time

The_IT_Guy_You_Don't_Like

what do you mean

Praxis Ashelin

8:30 PM

make one active > try the setup on both disks > fail > make the other one active > try again both options

The_IT_Guy_You_Don't_Like

you run the commands above twice for both the disks c?

Praxis Ashelin

I haven't done that every time but I'll do it now

The_IT_Guy_You_Don't_Like

and what about you just mark the disk active and leave the format fs=ntfs part

let it be unallocated and let windows try format it

Praxis Ashelin

tried that too with no avail

On nearly all SE sites, /search is the search page. On Careers, it's this guy. Well played.

@NormalHuman lolwut

user259867

Users can pick a /path for their page on Careers. And he's clever.

@PraxisAshelin what's the plan now ?

Praxis Ashelin

9:13 PM

@The_IT_Guy_You_Don't_Like I honestly ran out of ideas

The_IT_Guy_You_Don't_Like

@NormalHuman thanks

Praxis Ashelin

@The_IT_Guy_You_Don't_Like thought for a minute you'd linked my Q xD

The_IT_Guy_You_Don't_Like

@PraxisAshelin that sounds like too much after spending so much time on this

Praxis Ashelin

@The_IT_Guy_You_Don't_Like I know

The_IT_Guy_You_Don't_Like

Praxis Ashelin

The_IT_Guy_You_Don't_Like

Praxis Ashelin

i was going through my store recently and found this i.stack.imgur.com/D9Ygs.jpg

i put batteries in & voila. it still works after 14 or 15 years

user259867

9:42 PM

@Braiam If you define it as "the art of ..." then it's definitely not a verb.

user259867

And a dictionary would not have a verb in "-ing" form anyway... so a noun it is.

Braiam

@NormalHuman I read it as "the action of..." which is a verb

It's going to be a nontrivial amount of headache for SE team, in return for a trivial amount of traffic.

Stack Overflow 2010 Analytics

Jeff Atwood on December 15, 2010

As we approach the end of the year, I thought I'd roll up some statistics that people occasionally ask about.

user259867

From back when this wasn't a 25K privilege.

Jon Ericson

11:48 PM

@NormalHuman The new privilege will only answer one of those questions.

But you don't need that. Google provides an outsized portion of traffic for nearly every site on the network.

user259867

When this goes live, I'm probably posting a self-answered question on meta.Math... "what are our site analytics currently?"
