Includes for your pleasure: Emma Watson vadge discussion intermission, and outing my ladytype as a terrorist.

[15:34] jimothy_sterling: I still want a Mac Book when I move
[15:34] jimothy_sterling: I am tempted to see this stable system that "just works", plus I would love one of those super light, thin ones that I can easily carry around
[15:36] bioautographical: I hope you're not talking about an Air, because those things are ridiculously expensive.
[15:36] bioautographical: And if anything ever happens to it, I certainly won't be able to fix it.
[15:36] bioautographical: I know absolutely nothing about Macs.
[15:36] jimothy_sterling: I know those things are expensive, we looked at them. But something else they do. Mac things are all light n' shit
[15:37] jimothy_sterling: .... I would SO love to be able to afford an Air though
[15:37] bioautographical: Meh
[15:37] bioautographical: Macs are stupid
[15:38] jimothy_sterling: *You* gave me the idea in the first place
[15:38] jimothy_sterling: You were all "hay look at dis Air" and I was all o wow and we were like so much money and then I thought I WILL GET A MAC!
[15:38] jimothy_sterling: Topher has one
[15:38] jimothy_sterling: And Topher is cool I want to be exactly like Topher.
[15:39] jimothy_sterling: mrsatsu: I see Emma Watson upped her popularity
me: Who did what with her thing now?
mrsatsu: mag vag flash
me: The fuck is Emma Watson?
mrsatsu: who is it?
it's the chick from harry potter
hermione
hermoine?
something like that
me: Isn't she like, eight years old?
mrsatsu: lol, she just dinged 18 like a week ago or w/e
besides, I thought 8 was legal over there
me: Wow, a week beyond 18 and already the cunt's out. Classy bird.
mrsatsu: lol
I haven't actually seen the pics myself
it popped up on my google reader
didn't feel like clicking a nsfw at work
I guess they're panty-clad at least
just see through or some shit
me: Ludicrous
Harry Potter and the Glimpse of Snatch


[15:39] bioautographical: All I said was, woah, that's pretty thin, but that says nothing of their actual hardware and software and just blugh. Overall, you'll be paying for advertising and zero customization ability. For half what you'd pay for a Mac these days, you could get a pretty damned good PC laptop.
[15:40] jimothy_sterling: It's just I've never had much luck with PCs
[15:40] bioautographical: Yeah, but you've always gotten secondhand ones from people who don't know how to treat them.
[15:40] jimothy_sterling: My Grandad knows how to treat a PC
[15:41] jimothy_sterling: He's a computer consultant
[15:41] bioautographical: I've had the same computer for three years and, saving a hard drive crash, have had hardly any problems.
[15:41] bioautographical: Well, then, you don't. Probably partially because of the porn. That'll ruin anything.
[15:41] jimothy_sterling: Lies
[15:41] jimothy_sterling: Porn actually makes computers run better
[15:41] jimothy_sterling: Everyone knows that
[15:41] bioautographical: So do the tears of murdered children.
[15:41] jimothy_sterling: I bet Macs can weather porn
[15:42] jimothy_sterling: Dude, imagine me with a Mac, though. How sneering and irritating I would become
[15:42] bioautographical: I don't think anything can weather tons of spyware and crap. I just don't buy this "Macs r easier than Windowz!" crap a single bit.
[15:42] jimothy_sterling: I could become ten times more infuriating
[15:42] bioautographical: Yes, you would.
[15:42] jimothy_sterling: My sense of superiority would skyrocket
[15:42] jimothy_sterling: THAT is what you're paying for.
[15:43] jimothy_sterling: The ability to feel better than everyone else in the whole world without doing anything to justify it.
[15:43] jimothy_sterling: The American Dream
[15:43] jimothy_sterling: The Steve Jobs Experience.
[15:43] bioautographical: Well, I'd rather feel less superior and pocket the extra money for burgers and TVs.
[15:43] jimothy_sterling: Then you are clearly not American
[15:43] jimothy_sterling: So *fuck off* back to Iraq
[15:43] bioautographical: No one can make me feel inferior when I've got a burger.
[15:43] jimothy_sterling: And BRING THE TROOPS HOME!
[15:44] jimothy_sterling: Yeah, a burger made of NOT PORK BECAUSE IRAQ TERRORIST!

That's how you have clever technology discussions.
