Almost useless software

[Louigi Verona]

Loader
What this program does is load, load and load - it loads packages, copies files back and forth, sets up virtual drives, interacts with the kernel and when the meter is at 100% percent it loads the next package and keeps on going. Loading never stops - only when you shut it off.

The app is absolutely safe, it never does what it says. Because no thing in the world can be totally useless, someone may find it useful. What are the possible uses? Well, you can start up a couple and people will see your computer is busy - sometimes this is handy and may explain why you cannot do your work and instead loiter around with a beer )

Stay tuned for more almost useless apps from me =)

LOL! It might explain why I can't do my work but I doubt it'd allow me to loiter around with a beer. Doesn't hurt to try I guess

A very amusing concept, Lougi. This looks a bit analog to the ascii-editor you made a while ago.
More useless apps please..

Being 1Mb in size is a slap in the face to any useless software that has
any remains of self respect left.

It should be at least 15Mb.

[Sam_Zen]

LOL! It should be at least. Plus a bunch of useless add-ons and plugins..

TextPad
TextPad is a text editor that is capable of creating a read-only workspace.
For possible uses of this useless app consult imagination.

No chance joining the Modplug developer team?

Only to make some useless plugins, like the infamous Silence Plugin, Absolute Silence Plugin and No Playback Synth.

[Sam_Zen]

You're associating too far. Louigi. A silence plugin could be quite useful.
As over-ruling any pattern codes to create a break, or song-zap for example.

And silence is part of the expression inside a composition. Deciding not to play certain, obvious, notes (MD).

I'm sure your contribution would be of some value. Even though you think your programs are useless, they are probrably some out there who finds them valueful.

Okay, I have worked more on the app and have delivered two solutions - for home and office use.

The first app does have a couple of goofy lines flashing from time to time, the enterprise version is all damn serious and has no jokes at all - so feel free to use it in your office.

Another neat feature that was added was a random background color and size of window, so that each Loader that you start up looks a bit different from the previous one. That way you can start up several Loaders at once and it would feel that you are installing/running several serious applications.

Here are the download links:

Downloading...
Meanwhile there is an absolutely useless VST:
Anechoic room simulator

[EDIT]
Erm, Louigi...
Is there a manual for Cigar? :lol:
What it does except that the exe is taking 3mb of my precious free space?

[Louigi Verona]

You can

1. move it around the screen
2. show it off to your friends
3. double click on it to close it
