God Mode

[Tom Fisher]

Anyone remember windows 'God Mode' ?  Not sure what made me think of it but it still works in Win10.

Create new folder, rename folder to:

GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

Open Folder.

Refresh my memory - this does what again?

[Tom Fisher]

It's basically control panel all in one single folder/list view

Dang Tom. It would only let me give you +1.  I tried about a dozen times.

❤ this!

Thanx!

Great Ric

Makes me think about all the old MS easter eggs... the coolest one being the 3d flying in Excel ...

And Clippy as well! 

[Tom Fisher]

Forgot how creepy that clip was 

[Billy Welsh]

Indeed.  Makes me smile now, but I HATED it when it came out and turned it off by default on all PC's in office.  User had to figure out how to turn on if they wanted it.

Tom, I loved hidden things!  And Clippy too!

[Jeff Zylstra]

I'm guessing that Clippy was the perverted alter ego of the programmer who made him.

[Jeff Golas]

I think that was IDSPISPOPD 

[DebAmstutz]

Was Clippy the LIMU emu (or Doug?) of MS Word??

Liberty biberty! 

[DebAmstutz]

LOL Mark!  Is it just me or do those Liberty commercials make that company appear to be a less than adequate insurance company?  (I know the claims gal here doesn't enjoy contacting Liberty for claim information.  It's difficult for her to get someone on the phone and if she makes contact, they don't want to give out information that we should have had already!)

[Billy Welsh]

It's not just you, Deb.  I see their Emu bit as a really bad attempt to answer the GEICO Gecko and Flo for Progressive.  But much dumber as a campaign, IMHO.  Between that blatant copycat and their criticizing their own industry relentlessly, it does NOT make me want to consider buying insurance from them.  I don't like the Gecko either, much less Flo/Jamie, but they are not as bad as the Emu in my opinion.


Obviously, State Farm joined the same game a few years back, but at least they put some creativity into it.  Some of their commercials are entertaining, although after they run a gazillion times I get sick of them.  But generally they are well done and better than the other 3, IMHO.  I really enjoyed the one from last year or 2 years ago with Aaron Rodgers and his dog in the pickup truck speeding around off-road and jumping through the air.

[Mark]

Well, you know what they say - any advertising is good advertising.  And we all definitely know the name, no matter what kind of stupidity we associate it with.  So it's working.  The Liberty biberty sticks in my head.  Doesn't mean I'll buy from them.

[Tom Fisher]

Liberty is big online/youtube where I spend a lot of time (no cable) so that's the one I get so much of and I'm so over it.

[DebAmstutz]

My personal favorite is Mayhem. 

[Billy Welsh]

Absolutely!  The St. Bernard puppy and cat ones are awesome IMHO.

[DebAmstutz]

Mayhem.....like Meow!
