CIPWTTKT&GC v0x14 (v20): Turning it off and on all day every day - Hardware & Software

[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;37554231]why[/QUOTE] Internet access means access to the biggest amount of content ever while a phone lets me communicate with people which the internet allows for free and is much better at.

[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;37554231]why[/QUOTE] You don't have to communicate with people on the internet!

I don't want to tell you how to run your life but talking to people is much better than being a shut in.

[QUOTE=esalaka;37554288]You don't have to communicate with people on the internet"[/QUOTE] You start at your computer, go through signal switching stations, and wind up at your end point. How is this unlike phone infrastructure? In fact they're essentially the same exact thing.

[QUOTE=Protocol7;37554294]I don't want to tell you how to run your life but talking to people is much better than being a shut in.[/QUOTE] But cause of the weird ass social dysfunction i have going on in my brain I literally can't talk like I think or type in a normal conversation.

It's disadvantage in my eyes.[/QUOTE] The only reason you would find a phone to be of extreme importance is if you were stranded absolutely alone somewhere. In which case the phone probably wouldn't even function. [editline]6th September 2012[/editline] Hell, if phones were still just phones I might've eventually replaced my old one with an alarm clock! Luckily, we got Android phones and all that shit so I got one of them instead.

[QUOTE=alien_guy;37554320]But cause of the weird ass social dysfunction i have going on in my brain I literally can't talk like I think or type in a normal conversation.[/QUOTE] I'm no expert but usually these "social dysfunctions" are self-diagnosed and falsely so Napalm's right though - having a cell phone, even a shitty prepaid Nokia, will pay for itself when your car breaks down/you break your leg when you're alone/pretty much any emergency.

If you get a smartphone you can also find your way if you get lost somewhere...Unless you never go out either?

[QUOTE=esalaka;37554338]I didn't state the underlying technology was different, just that it's utilised differently.[/QUOTE] But with the internet, you [I]are[/I] having communication with people. Even if you never touched your keyboard, all the internet is, is seeing the words, pictures, videos, etc. of other individuals. There is communication happening on the fundamental level. I'd go so far as to say that it's impossible to [I]not[/I] have communication on the internet. All the internet is, is a way of communicating ideas, like the phone and the telegraph before it, on which the technology was born.

I rarely use my phone for calling. Text messaging, music listening, camera and web browsing are the things I use the most. Oh, and alarm clock.

[QUOTE=alien_guy;37554320]But cause of the weird ass social dysfunction i have going on in my brain I literally can't talk like I think or type in a normal conversation.[/QUOTE] I have an [I]actual[/I] supposed social dysfunction but I have no problem being sociable and taking part in any conversation stop

[QUOTE=Amiga OS;37554457]I don't like making phone calls either, and I'm perfectly fine speaking to people in person. I can't explain it.[/QUOTE] My sister can do anything just fine, like present and defend her complicated architectural design diagrams in a room full of professionals with confidence, but she can't order a pizza without getting cold feet.

[QUOTE=FlubberNugget;37554473]I have an [I]actual[/I] supposed social dysfunction but I have no problem being sociable and taking part in any conversation stop[/QUOTE] If I could talk to people properly, I would talk to people properly.

[QUOTE=Amiga OS;37554457]I don't like making phone calls either, and I'm perfectly fine speaking to people in person. I can't explain it.[/QUOTE] I'm better with text communication. A lot of times, I know what I'm getting at, but I have to delete and reword entire sentences pretty often. With my voice, I don't have that luxury.

[QUOTE=alien_guy;37554492]If I could talk to people properly, I would talk to people properly.[/QUOTE] then get help if you arent getting it already, making excuses and skirting around it for your whole life will make you a lonely broken wreck Though now I'm going into ameture psychologist territory and I don't know what I'm talking about so I'm going to stop.

[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;37554511][B]then get help[/B] if you arent getting it already, making excuses and skirting around it for your whole life will make you a lonely broken wreck[/QUOTE] That would involve talking to someone.

[QUOTE=alien_guy;37554492]If I could talk to people properly, I would talk to people properly.[/QUOTE] Do you put effort into correcting this 'disorder'? Because that's the only way you're going to help it. Optionally being a shut in is a terrible idea even if you have a social disorder What happens when you go to get a job and you can't even contribute to a conversation between a client, because you didn't want to socialise earlier on?

[QUOTE=FlubberNugget;37554520] What happens when you go to get a job and you can't even contribute to a conversation between a client, because you didn't want to socialise earlier on?[/QUOTE] He wouldn't get a job, simple as that.

I feel like we're going way off topic. SCSI adapters: Yes? No? You know.

I like saying random stuff in a conservation.

[QUOTE=alien_guy;37554320]But cause of the weird ass social dysfunction i have going on in my brain I literally can't talk like I think or type in a normal conversation.[/QUOTE] You still seem pretty "weird ass social dysfunction" even when you're typing.

ok so i was at best buy today test driving laptops before i buy one elsewhere and as i was leaving i see a sassy black girl (not fat) walking from her car to enter the store and she has some HP laptop in hand with the disk drive ejected(wut) and with a disc of GTA IV in the tray. lol i bet she tried to play GTAIV on some shit laptop and now she's going to geek squad to figure out how to make it work i can see it now: "BUT IT HAS 4 GEE BEES OF RAM, IT SHOULD WORK"

Late to the watch party, but i'm not sure if i should keep this [t]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/5831868/HPIM0427.JPG[/t] or get a black and grey pebble.

Here's mine: [t]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/5733962/ShareX/2012-09/2012-09-05%2017.29.26.jpg[/t] It's too big on me, so I need to get a couple of the links removed, and I need to get a new battery (because the stopper for it apparently fell off in the shop or something), but it's shiny and intact.

I had a PDA watch once. It ran Palm OS 5. It had a monochrome screen and I played checkers on it during class. Then I sold it for $200 (I bought it for $50.)
