Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.

AND THEN YOU MOONWALK AWAY
*dances away to "Beat It"*
Imagine I have run off to Walgreens to get some solarcaine for the sick burn.
So like, next week probably.
man, mac and windows users (the very idea of "mac and windows people" is what I find fucked up here) can't get their sneer on properly for Linux.
For that you need a user of a different distro of Linux. Then it gets nasty.
dogg i am talking about the actual quotes in the post above, which are paraphrased almost identically, made by matt and override today
the line you're talking about is my summary of the things they said
i don't understand why you object to my use of 'gullible' which is essentially a direct synonym of what they are saying
-"yeah because people are stupid and will buy obsolete hardware for four figures if it has an apple logo on it"
-"that's true but it has nothing to do with build quality, it has to do with blind consumer loyalty which is a plus for reselling it later I suppose"
-"It's not a "class of computers", it's a marketing machine pushing marked-up hardware to people who believe the hype. They're banking on people being too complacent to care how badly they're being ripped off."
those are the direct quotes which are identical in tone (maybe even harsher) than the paraphrases i posted
that would entail writing several positive paragraphs about myself, a feat beyond even the greatest writers of the age
It's like... no matter what mouse I buy I have to sacrifice something important.
I want lots of buttons BUT I WANT THOSE BUTTONS TO BE EASILY DISTINGUISHABLE.
I want it to be a nice shape with a good curve to fill out my hand.
I want it to have a place for my pinky.
I would like if it was heavy/ had adjustable weight.
And for the love of zod put a laser in that thing that won't die after 3 months.
Why has no one managed this yet?
This is me listening to Mac v. PC
you need to turn the serious down like five notches
Could you clarify "a bunch"?

You're welcome.
where did you find this photo of my neck
jeez, talk about privacy in the 21st century
Even better if it is designed for a claw grip.
This is me. http://i.imgur.com/mlaRG2h.gif
If you roll a 2, roll 2d6
my laptops last two, three years tops
there aren't really many applications that make good use of those sorts of configurations right now anyways. your rig will run pretty much everything you want it to at the resolutions and detail that you want it to
like, you'd think that a big-ass SLI water-cooled rig would be futureproof, but it's almost certain that in 3 years your computer will seem kind of shitty to you for some other reason.
like, do you remember that dude at PAX who had put together that monster PC with 4 gfx cards and all those fans and the starcraft lady airbrushed onto the case?
and i was like "hey show off your pc" and he started talking about this gigahurtz and that megaflops
so i was like "okay let's see what it could do"
and he loaded up starcraft 2. because he hadn't even thought to put on any software that would show off his rig's capabilities.
because it really wasn't the point for him
starcraft 2 looked as good as it did on my mac tho!
this does not really seem to matter. 'the people who own this' or 'you (someone who owns this)' are functionally synonymous. i ain't be going back and double checking pronouns for old posts when the meaning is identical anyway.
It's not that I'm slut-shaming you but
I like my base model Logitech wireless mouse / keyboard, but didn't like using up AA batteries so I bought rechargeable ones.
Now I'm changing them like every other week. Fuck you environment, I'm tired of my mouse dying on me all the time - it's back to disposables.
no no i think you're really onto something here
he must be ego-searching all the time
and maybe he has some free time by ignoring will
I like macs fine they're just too pricey for the hardware in em(same reason I got rid of that MS surface, thankfully at virtually no $ loss)
when I go to buy a laptop the brand that it is is not the motivating factor because brand loyalty as a concept is kind of silly, they're all massive corporations
down with the wage system
I bought one for the wife a while back.
I have a ratt7. We both like them both very much.
BETTER THAN EVERYONE
My work mouse is a portable wireless laser mouse though. Because the batteries are free to me.
there is a difference in how in-your-face it is.
You don't have to be double-checking anything, just generally don't paraphrase stuff, because that leads to the kind of thing we're seeing here, with people arguing over what was said and what wasn't and it's just urgh
no i want premium whiskeys and bmw's, shut up, keep paying people to slave away
The only game that used all my new computer's power (that I actually wanted to play) was Skyrim plus ridiculous mods. It was kind of a let down. I mean, everything else boots faster and runs smoother but it wasn't magical like it was 10 years ago, where buying a new PC meant unlocking a whole new class of games.
Yes, but if a company makes an inferior product for a long enough time, their stock price will reflect that. Aapl isn't on top by luck, ATM. Tim Cook had almost as big a part of it as Steve, but I just don't see how they'll keep the design and quality assurance culture that Steve implemented.
I don't understand what value this argument is over, if you're going so broad as to not even base it on companies possible products/business plays/management. It really is just a pissing match then.
not really. i totally didn't measure.
like it was a 750 ml bottle.
maybe a handful of coffee beans
added maybe 1/2 cup sugar total
filled up the rest with brandy
PC users are dicks
Mac users are butts
Can we be done now?
