Why is the internet filled with apple haters?
ie. http://www.reddit.com/r/funny/co…
I'm surrounded by people using apple shit and no-one in real life complains about their computers like these people do ALL. THE. TIME.
- i was excited to work on a apple computer back in like 2005. until i worked on one and realized it was all marketing. they sold to the LCD and won.********
- there hardware is usually 2-4yrs behind. There OS makes no logical sense to me. its like you have to be retarded to figure it out & mayb thats what they want********
- i have a macbook running windows through bootcamp and it fuckin sucks. but is better than the OSX shit. cut and paste?! for fucks sake.********
- I could tear apart why pc/windows shits me. Though I don't think I've ever posted about this on the internet.inteliboy
- all icons and UI looks like youre playing some sort of fucking slot machine. lack of higher level user function. its for the smallest of the small fry. fcX..********
- disagreed on every point. though yay PC vs MAC. good times. *sigh*inteliboy
- well thats the thing with design and userability. those things purely are a reflection of the user. i expected more and was underwelmed. But im not most users********
- you absolutely are most users judging by your response. hence the original post.inteliboy
- so if i am than you are admitting that most users just see OSX and apple hardware as tinker toy shit? Or are dismissing our claims based on dislike only?..?********
- It seems that way, if you judge on internet noise. Though who knows. Hence the question. Though you def made your point why you hate apple.inteliboy
- you do get a reflection? you see what you can see. This covers the opinion of PC lovers and Mac lovers. Its simply in the ability of the beholder..********
- i know plenty of people who find OSX/hardware sufficient, and than those who have had better. Some dont even know it and prefer shiny aluminum********
- i dont judge on noise i judge on my own personal experience. im not going to parrot other opinions as my own. ill back my own. if u disagree so be it.********
- Yes absolutely. Though the response to Apple is far more intertwined with negative response than PC. That's what is interesting.inteliboy
- but you probably are right, a lot of PC people are probably as dumb and jelly of more expensive solid aluminum casing thats gets for pussy********
- lol.inteliboy
- weird the perception. perhaps u see more neg about the product you like. I see more win hate. Which makes sense if you dont care you dont see********
- i do see windows tryign to be more liek osx and vice versa and its definitlyu not my thing. i liek in windows i still have a decent amount of ability to change********
- you are doing it wrong. the OS is fine.********
- Tell me more about the thing you hate that other people like. Do you have a newsletter I can subscribe to? Fucking nonsense.face_melter
- he had a valid pojnt with cut and paste and other quirks that Wondows does way better - the simple stuff experienced users expect... but jeez this debate stillfadein11
- going lolfadein11

know anyone who is addicted to distraction?- it's an epidemic I think we are all trying to manage.********
- If you have Twitter, Facebook, email accounts, Instagram, and pretty much anything that ties you to the internet, you are indeed addicted to e-distraction.Maaku
- gotta say, qbn is my biggest internet distractioninteliboy
- When I want to be distracted, I read the New York Times app.scransom5
- Sure, NYT app but I prefer the paper version aesthetically.********

Having scored big this year I think of selling my e46 325i and reward myself with an e92 M3 or maybe, just maybe a Porsche 997.
Thoughts? I have always been interested in cars. Growing up in rather normal conditions I never even thought that I could once have the possibility of owning such a car. I love the Porsche but I'm afraid of actually owning one - no one knows that I have made a bit of money. I would like to keep it that way.
- go Porsche********
- Lease or purchase?fadein11
- Purchase used, these are around 8-10 years old.mekk
- well, i dont know where you live, but over here owning one of those car mean: "that dude makes a lot of money"Ben99
- Yeah, that's a problem with the 997 but the BMW looks more normal. Thought of getting a cheap car for everyday but that would be the ultimate first world probmekk
- On the other hand, coworkers thought I am a super rich snob for buying that 325 I have now because it's in very good condition and looks like new.mekk
- EVERYONE, MEKKKKK IS FUCKN LOADED,
BRING ON THE HARPOOONS !!!georgesIII - Can I borrow $40?pinkfloyd
- Skip the car; go on an adventure, instead.karj
- lol Ben, here in Dallas those cars are pretty much all over the place.Maaku
- what year(s)? are you buying new?iCanHazQBN
- Just traded in my 997 the other day. Very glad that I bought it and got to experience it. May get a turbo one day. Great cars and very reliable!SteveJobs
- lol, "I wanna buy a Porche but I don't want people to know I can afford it."Milan
- get a tesla. that's the real midlife thing todo now.uan
- my cousin just bought a tesla. very nice interior.Gnash
- Actually Milan that makes sense. I'm not showy but I love certain things that are considered as such and this is one thing you can't easily enjoy conservativelySteveJobs
- In that price range, you should think about a Cayman S too. You can get one 4-5 years newer than the 997 for the same money.section_014
- Yes but it's a Cayman. They are engineered well, admittedly, but it's still not the full 911 experience. Just my opinion obviously.SteveJobs
- Calculate maintenance costs. My opinion is never by or lease used luxury cars unless u got deep pocketsHayoth
- I'll second the Cayman S. Unless you really are snobby about it, it's a superb Porsche.
I've had an M3 for a while now, it's been perfect.formed - Get the Techart kit for the Cayman S, looks better than a stock 911
http://gtspirit.com/…formed - shortly after I bought a bike I realized the Porche was the stupidest thing I ever boughtmoldero
- I reckon u can't avoid people making assumptions with these cars, but with a Porsche at least it won't be that you work in sales.MrT
- mekk have you test driven the car that you want to have? how does it make you feel? ...go from there.bklyndroobeki
- To answer your questions; They will be around €25K, I have test driven both and they feel great, like all expensive sports cars I assume.mekk
- I like the Cayman too, the thing is - it's better than the 911, mid-engine, lighter, smaller. But they've dumbed it down so it's not faster than the 11 papermekk
- go Porsche

Went on a 5 day should cleansing trip to a secluded area of Baja California this Thanksgiving. Saw the most amazing sunset I have ever seen in my life. Got home late last night and woke up this morning to a phone call from my dad letting me know my Grandma passed away this morning. I'm going to need to take a road trip up north to visit the family for the funeral. Life is pretty fucking crazy sometimes at what it throws at you.
- sorry to hear! where "up north?"monospaced
- Thanks mono. My family is in Patterson, Livermore and Folsom.capn_ron
- sorry to hear :(Krassy
- Sorry to hear. Makes you realize you should spend more time with your family / loved ones and that's what matters.********

- Thanks guys. I know she is in a better place because she was in so much pain. Going to visit the fam and get menudo and tamales and celebrate her life.capn_ron

If a client doesn't pay you on time and it doesn't seem like they're absent minded and just forgot, they do not respect you.
- I know the feeling. Sometimes it just means your client's accountant doesn't have your invoice. But there are contractual things you can put in place that help.scransom5
- ^accountant not having the invoice is not an excuse... also a sign of disrespectPonyBoy

Started reading "Moby Dick". I don't hate it.
- hang in there, ishmael, great book.Gnash
- i hated itscarabin
- but have pet cockroaches, so ya.Gnash
- only because it seemed like a ton of technical stuff about boats and sailing that i didn't really care about. if i were into that stuff it would've been betterscarabin
- (i was jk'ing, btw)) the homeric epics were similar. homer went into incredible detail about the ships, etc.Gnash
- melville uses that device, among others, to give the story an epic tone.Gnash
- yeahscarabin
- the technical chapters are both to paint the authenticity of the voyage/occupation, and also to serve as a metaphorical framework for several themes in the bookgarbage
- the book itself is voyage, and is an edifying work if you make it to the end.garbage

7 year, $217-million for throwing a motherfucking baseball.
- $217M for drawing in major crowds, advertisers and partnerships that make the parent company prob 5-10x that over the course of the contractPonyBoy
- be annoyed @ the greedy MGMT above the talent... technically the talent is still getting screwed regardless of their cutPonyBoy
- I'm annoyed at the people (fans) who fund this more than anything really, but i'm as guilty as anyone_niko
- I hear that— I actually feel the same way. Side note: the kids in college earning MGMT all that money 'might' get a free Ed. if lucky— outside of that...PonyBoy
- ... they aren't allowed shit. No gifts (this goes to something so small as a nice meal even)... yet MGMT scrapes $Mill++ in proceeds off them each year.PonyBoy
- Talent in any field always gets fucked unless they own the 'team' / company. :(PonyBoy
