Computer illiterate people who think they know things V8: Mandrith appreciation Station. - Hardware & Software

[QUOTE=Asmaedus;27256788]My god you people actually believe mandriths stories?[/QUOTE] They might be fake, But they are still entertaining

[QUOTE=Asmaedus;27256788]My god you people actually believe mandriths stories?[/QUOTE] No reason not to believe. I mean, there really is people like how Mandrith describes his dad. My step dad was quite similiar. Then I moved out and 2 months later he died. True story. Really.

[QUOTE=FlakTheMighty;27256006]Wait a second, someone find a map of the USA. I forgot where MA was in location with OK.[/QUOTE] Massachusetts is up in New England, by New York and stuff. Pretty far from Oklahoma. Fallout 3 players, start from the exit of Vault 101. Take the destroyed highway north until you pass the ruins of New York. Keep walking about another day or so.

Not exactly related but someone in chemistry said the source engine was the best engine by today's standards :geno: I like source but fuck no

Actually, Portal 2 Source engine seems to be better. I mean, they have updated it pretty well!

[QUOTE=Zenpod;27259250]Not exactly related but someone in chemistry said the source engine was the best engine by today's standards :geno: I like source but fuck no[/QUOTE] Well in some situations, it is!

[QUOTE=Zenpod;27259250]Not exactly related but someone in chemistry said the source engine was the best engine by today's standards :geno: I like source but fuck no[/QUOTE] Yeah. Source is basically a 2000-era engine that's been upgraded to look like a modern engine. It's very poorly suited to do anything except the types of shooter Valve makes. You'll notice that very few companies are licensing Source - I think Gamebryo has sold more licenses. They really need to do either a ground-up redesign (not just a rewrite, an actual redesign), or just give in and buy an Unreal or idTech license.

[QUOTE=Flubadoo;27254376]Example: My friend. Him - I got a GT 9600! Me - It is old. And it's not very good by today's standards. Him - You high? It was at a convention and just released a few months ago. Me - No... *proceeds to google GT 9600 release date, shows him 2008. Him - Whatever, it is still amazing. Me - A GTS 250 or a lower range 4xx series can easily beat it Him - Lol no. My GT 9600 is NINE THOUSAND. GTS 250 is TWO HUNDRED. Me - *kills self* [editline]7th January 2011[/editline] And no it isn't. He usually is not that annoying, but when it comes to tech, he definitely annoys me in the Subway line. [sp]YES WE HAVE SUBWAY IN SCHOOL[/sp] Shit, where did my post go. And he brags about his 3d computer at his dad's workplace or something.[/QUOTE] I had a 9600 in 2008 and I thought it was the shit until I got my 5750. Then I learned that the 9600 was a re-branded piece of shit. I was mad.

[QUOTE=QuickSnapz;27099259]No one in this thread hates macs themsevles. But the fanboys. Much like mac users hate windows fanboys.[/QUOTE] I hate macs themselves.

[QUOTE=Heavy3;27259782]I hate macs themselves.[/QUOTE] Then you are 12 [editline]7th January 2011[/editline] Macs are good Windows is good Linux is good. Now don't start this shit again

[QUOTE]clearly, the people who say that Mac's are bad without giving any reason for it, are just repeating others or never had a mac. System wise, and sure in bug and programming wise, Mac is WAY better then microsoft. Though the support of available software is low. Also, the option of custimization in Mac is worse then Windows. Even though Mac is better system wise then Windows, I still preffer Windows. Since it's easier to costumize, and configure. And mostly it supports like every piece of software there is. Also, the most used programming languages ARE available on windows (most on Linux though) but a bit less then Mac. But for reliability and stability, mac is better in every way. So overall, mac isn't better then windows and vise versa. It's just your personal requirements which makes or does not makes it available and usable for you. Hearing of one of the posters above, this might be a common "bug". So I would believe that this isn't your mac-book but RSBot it self.[/QUOTE]

Now don't start this shit again[/QUOTE] I don't want to start this shit or keep it going, but this is just ignorant. This is as bad as the anti-discrimination in America. We had slavery 200 years ago and now I can't get free schooling or a grant or anything because I am not Black. You don't go from one extreme to the other. 200 years ago: "Oh, everyone hates macs!" Now: "Oh you must be an moron if you don't like macs! How dare you ever say such a thing!" People are allowed to dislike a fucking compture and company if they want to. Someone likes PC and doesn't like Mac. THAT ISN'T A FUCKING CRIME. LET THEM HAVE AN OPINION. This isn't the place to discuss any of it though, so how about we just drop all fucking Mac vs PC vs Linux vs ANY OTHER USELESS SHIT.

[QUOTE=Binladen34] Technically in Windows 8 it will be.[/QUOTE] Do explain.

[QUOTE=Heavy3;27259828]-quote-[/QUOTE] Here are some of my oppositions in your quote: -You are comparing Mac to Microsoft. That's like comparing a car to a fire hydrant. Mac is not a company. -I wouldn't say OS X is better than Windows "system-wise", but it is indeed a lot more user-friendly. -I wouldn't say OS X is more "stable and reliable" than Windows either, because keep in mind that OS X will only run on a fixed and very limited range of approved hardware, and would not have any hardware issues because of so. If one attempts to install it on a set of unapproved hardware, the operating system will be even more hellish and buggy than Vista upon release without the proper patches and such. Kernel wise, I wouldn't say Windows is any less stable than OS X for performing the daily tasks. I haven't had a single crash caused by the OS itself since Vista, but user-condemed operations such as overclocking, or messing with the drivers and hardware. Hence the statement "OS X is more reliable" is not really valid.

And, apparently, not even reading posts anymore - he never said "if you hate macs ur retarded". He said "all of these operating systems are perfectly usable, and there's no reason to argue violently with each other over which is better because there's always something that another one is better at". And let me check here... yep, got free education through grade 12. And, <checks skin>, yep, I'm white. And nerdy, if my Weird Al t-shirt is a reliable source.
