Copy File Forever

Hey Yo, Darth, My DUDE,

How's it hangin there Darth, buddy?   Cooleo!  You da MAN!

Just a quick note this morning since I've been pretty much ignoring all the other shit that your buggy software has been doing lately.  But this one I figure is worth your attention.   Minor thing, but ... anyway, here you go.

This dialog box has been copying my file to the backup USB Flash drive... it's been saying 5 Minutes for about 20 minutes so far.   Dude, you're killing me here.   Can you stop with the fucking "Estimated Time" already?  It's fucking bullshit.   You used to do the right thing, which was show how much of the file was actually transfered and how much is left remaining as the scroll bar.  That was fine.   So it jumped a bit while processing delayed momentarily.  Big fucking deal.   But instead some genius over there (was it you?) decided it would be much crueler and more unusual to have the progress bar just wave back and forth providing zero useful information except for "I'm working on it, maybe".   That kinda sucks, Darth.  Please fix it.   Put back the old way, and it'll all work out fine.  Thanks.
