When was the...

....last time you used cmd?

or something related to the 90s??

 

You mean a command line on a computer?

 

I do I said cmd to see who knew what it was

 

I passed the test, then .

Don't use cmd so much, but regularly fire up "terminal" on my Mac for command line stuff. Dear old Unix hasn't changed much in 30 years - he's like an old, rather careworn mate. I delight in telling snuffling, tank-top-wearing "devs" that we were using this stuff while they were still an ovum...

 

about 10 mins ago when I was using DOS commands to do some scripting of file renames. lol

Old skool!

 

Pretty much every day...

 

hoi! less of the "old stuff 90"s will you ? when I started work the office had the ultimate in high tech cool >>one massive ticker tape machine for really really fast communication with other branches,and I am not joking !

 

I still remember Telegram Boys ............. now THAT'S old school

 

I use it everyday.. 5 hours ago at work

Ipconfig /all

Gpupdate /force. To name just 2 commands

It is still a very powerful and useful tool for network controlling.

Easier than doing things in another piece of pointless software.

 

Every day.

 

CMD?
That's Camden railway Station.
Or possibly Canis Major Dwarf, a galaxy far far away.

Ha Terrordales ! Telegrams eh? my pal used to call in at local post office on way home from school and would sometimes get a telegram to deliver locally and he was paid the fee off sixpence(approx. 2.5 new ,yes new pence) I was sooo jealous ! > sixpence bought a lot of sweets !>for your info;, my mate never ever bought sweets with the fee,he now owns a very successful company (my teeth ,on the other hand are woefull)

 

The last time the laptop got a virus i should think

del C:\dodgyfiles *.*

Then gave up and went format C:

didn't bother with /s as you don't have to any more

 

Did they ride red BSA Bantams too?

Seem to recall using DOS 3 on a luggable PC ...6" green screen

 

NO, that would have been way to modern ......... they had red pushbikes

 

I use it almost every day...and I *still* try to use 'ls' rather than 'dir'
*geek*

 

WTF are you lot talking about???

 

Ah Terrordales , gone are the days when the mail delivery technician was "The Postie" and he knew yer name and would chap old missus Smith"s door if there were too many unused/filled milk bottles on the doorstep, just so he knew she was ok.And he whistled "Streets of London" as he did his round in that "Green and pleasant land"< sadly ,now long gone.
