Shit that makes you mad - V28 - General

Everyone you know isn’t everyone. Personally, I use an iPhone simply because of performance, security, and privacy. I started out with Android, and switched because of software bloat, fragmentation, and Google. Performance, because most people forget that despite its specs, the iPhone is only beaten by more recent Android flagships in performance. Security, because any malware is considered a zero-day exploit. You can basically use any app or site without fear of it being harmful to you. Privacy, because any company relying on free services will consider you the product. Apple has done more than enough to demonstrate their stance on privacy, from the FBI debacles to the handling of basic app permissions.

I went and bought a PS4 as a gift for my girlfriend. It's something I've been wanting to do for months now and now that I've had my job for a month, I was finally able to do it. I bought her, a friend, and I a copy of Ghost Recon: Wildlands each, I made sure everyone had it installed on their PS4 in advance, everything was set up to immediately be able to play. Yesterday I gave it to her, had that friend bring his PS4 and TV over, and everything was as simple as "oh, by the way, I got you this" followed by starting up the game (except for Ubisoft's servers being awful and temporarily not letting my friend in but that was resolved in like 5 minutes). Some hours later, we went out to go buy pizza and a couple of other things, and I decided to stop by Gamestop and pick up three copies of Dying Light. We get home, watch something while we eat, pop Dying Light into the PS4, aaaaaaand... Three hour estimated download time for 10gb of patches. This was before anyone else started downloading it. That would've taken me 20 minutes on Steam at maximum. Thanks, Sony. I'm glad I pay $60 a year for your trash download servers. Guess we'll play it the next time all three of our schedules line up just so that we can be up late.

Laptop hard drives are fucking cancer. Slowest pieces of shits imaginable even a simple file read CAPS OUT at 1mb/s.

Anyone who calls pizza, "za". No.

When publishers do this fucking stupid shit https://i.imgur.com/L9J7ZYX.jpg I have the first two trilogies, recently found out about the existence of the third one. Went online to order it, but I was kinda appalled to see that the design of the covers is very different to the first two trilogies for no real reason... They all have different base colors and the overall look is also different (no emblem/banner at the top right corner anymore, rip) The naming also no longer follows a fun pattern, though that's on the author and not on the publisher.

People not understanding the actual struggle that is clinical depression. 'Oh cheer up!' 'I feel sad too somtimes!' 'You're just lazy!' Get fucked you dense cunts.

I mean, you said iPhone users are ignorant, so I’m at least trying to back up my argument. It might seem like I’m trying to make Android out to be worse than iOS, but in actuality it’s just a direct counter to the opposite claim. Overall I find both operating systems great.

Who the fuck refers to pizza as "za"? That sounds fucking annoying.

sounds like someone needs a hot 'za to me

Windows 7 suddenly thinks my computer is too incompetent to have Blender or Google Sketchup open and have Aero enabled at the same time. STOP. FUCKING STOP. MY COMPUTER IS MORE THAN ABLE TO RUN YOUR BULLSHIT. QUIT TURNING IT OFF YOU ABSOLUTE FUCKNUGGET. Looked it up and apparently if you're stuck with this bug, good fucking luck because it'll probably never be right again and you can't disable it disabling it. I hate shit that dictates what's good and what isn't good for me. This is WHY I never upgraded to Windows 10. FUCK. Whenever it turns Aero off, everything looks ugly as sin and I actually get screen tearing when I scroll in my browser and it hurts my fucking eyes. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

People "from the 90's."

What's with all these different versions of minecraft? Like "bedrock edition" which apparently has a full on chemistry update in the works and is available on windows, android, ios, and even fucking fire tv. But mac/linux? Fuck you, you get nothing. I knew it was doomed when they split off the classic/java version with all of these completely out of whack versions.

PC/Mac/Linux can run the Java version, which is going to continue getting updates. Bedrock is all modern consoles and PC. The "x Edtion" are previous gen consoles, so 360, WiiU, PS3, etc.

God I hate Twitter vigilantism. Whether it's someone making up shit about someone because they don't like them, or they actually did do something wrong, it always brings out these shitty kids who just WANT to seem like they're a "perfect person", without any of the effort by believing the first thing they see, replying "wow thank you i blokd this person IMMEDIATELY, anyone who follows them, and anyone who says anything that isn't total agreement with my stance" fuck off you're not doing any good by blocking everyone who dares challenge your opinion that formed in .5 seconds.

Turns out it wasn't Windows' fault, but a GPU driver issue. Rolled back and everything is fine now. I retract what I said about W7. Really, it's just the forced updates that irk me, and I don't want to splurge and get Pro just to turn them off, or do this hacky thing, lobotomize this service, install that program, vaporize half of the OS, etc. etc. just to turn off a feature. I'm not a techno-illiterate and I don't need to be told what's good for my PC or when to update. I also have W10 on my laptop and it's been a major headache a lot, it was upgraded from 8.1 and I guess it really doesn't like that. It's strangely unstable and broke its own updater which is the only silver lining. I'll upgrade whenever I build a new computer. My current one, while I built it, wasn't put together on the best budget and just upgrading the hardware won't suffice.

Showed up for my 5am-9am shift only to learn halfway when the manger prints out the schedules its actually 5pm-9pm shift. Whoops.

I just turned down a collaboration because I'm worried my completely random and nonsensical work schedule would get in the way and make even simple things like chatting a headache for both of us.

I'm doing a DIY project and I need some solder, I used some last night and today it's just gone. I've looked nearly everywhere and it's just gone. Fuck I hate losing things.

When you're in a deep sleep and your stomach suddenly decides "painful poops time!" out of pure buttfuck nowhere. Christ couldn't that wait until I was done sleeping?

The problem I've been having with my shoulder was really hurting today. I told a assistant manager about it, another manager came and outrught called me a liar and told me either I can do the job today or I had to resign Fuck me for caring more about my health than your shitty store i guess Needless to say I resigned

Me: I like this soundtrack I just found. I will bookmark the page for latter. Brain: OR I could repeat it over and over until you get tired of it.

Reminds me of that time I woke up at 12 in the morning, immediately said "huh" and slightly shit myself with diarrhea right after. Never have I made my way to a bathroom that fast in my life.

I hate denny's, I don't know what their problem is but everytime I've ever eaten there they fucked something up. I ordered their spaghetti, it was frozen in the middle. I got some chicken strips, one was woefully undercooked, you could see it wasn't cooked and the temp was still very cold. Their excuse "oh must have grabbed one from another to complete the order" I got a milkshake there once, they served it in a cracked glass and I got food poisoning shortly afterward, I'm inclined to blame them. And all of these at different locations too.

No brain and hand, stop drawing these faces all fucked up. It's damn impossible to pick up drawing because of this.

its called practice.

Sleep. Every night I get to lay in bed for 2-3 hours waiting for sleep to happen. Last week I had a night where I was in bed for 5 hours before I fell asleep, presumably from sheer boredom.

My receding hairline and that I got all the thin hair genes from mom's side while my sibling got all the thick hair genes from my dad's side.

I understand your pain. It usually takes me a few hours to fall asleep as well and it drives me insane.

i just realized like a year ago i had put up a short rant about the arbitrary and random work schedules I was getting and i put it on my fucking official employee profile because i was being an edgy asshole who thought "no one's gonna read this" that's probably going to bite me in the ass later

I feel like I need to stop browsing Tumblr along with some of the shit a couple of my siblings occasionally reblog on there since its fucking with my perception of the world in multiple ways. From what I've seen, they don't have any problems with stereotypes of white people and think all white people (including themselves) are racist. I'm not even sure if I should be super upset at the former (hence what I meant when I said my perception got fucked in multiple ways), but after hearing my brother say that he's fine with that one ex-Bioware dev being incredible fucking hostile specifically towards white people and even thinks he's justified, I started assuming the worst out of shit like that and potentially freaking out over shit that's probably not even a big deal. Before, this sort of shit, while annoying, didn't bother me as much, because I didn't think it would leak into my personal life. Now, I find out that some of my family members unironically buy into shit like this, and I'm getting so much anxiety from this reality. Not just because of their beliefs, but also because of the possibility of one of them freaking out at me over something mundane. Better than them being Nazis / Trump supporters, but still.
