Using my phone as a mouse.
I wouldn't try playing a game with this, but hell, this is pretty good.

[QUOTE=TehWhale;31478160]It's just a modified Chromium[/QUOTE]
I've heard about Chromium before. What is it?
It's the open-source project behind Chrome.

At my school at least 3/4 of people's iPods have been horribly broken.
I've seen everything from home buttons jammed under the screen to screens being partially torn off to reveal the circuitry underneath (While still functioning somehow.) How the hell can you be careless enough to break expensive electronics? I can't even begin to count the amount of times I have seen people casually walking to the bus outside school and accidentally throw their iPod halfway across the sidewalk. It makes me cringe. Almost nobody actually uses even slightly protective cases or even screen protectors, either.
people are spoiled and don't take care of their things anymore
"fuck this ipod, daddy will buy me a new one"

hello tectonind, are you one of these kids?
Fuck. OSX. I've never used an operating system so [i]slow[/i], so [i]bloated[/i] and [i]inefficient[/i], so [i]featureless[/i] and [i]bland[/i], so [i]inflexible[/i] and [i]un-customizable[/i], so [i]unintuitive[/i] and [i]illogical[/i].
I was just reading Wikipedia, with Firefox and uTorrent [i]seeding[/i], when OSX alerts me that I'm running out of disk space. [I]"ok whatever stop bothering me I'll deal with it later"[/I] Twenty minutes later, Firefox crashes because, [I]"hurr not enough swap file space."[/I] [b]ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME[/b]--NOT ONLY IS OSX UNNECESSARILY SWAPPING MEMORY WITH 15 WIKIPEDIA TABS OPEN BUT IT APPARENTLY DOESN'T USE A PARTITION FOR PAGING BY DEFAULT! Thank you, oh almighty steve jobs, for your OS's absolutely atrocious resource management.
I also can't get Aurora to restart; I think OSX reamed my favorite browser.
All of this wouldn't really matter if Apple hadn't left one little caveat to the use of another other operating system: the dGPU can only be deactivated with the "custom drivers" Apple made specially for the AMD GPUs in their products; "custom drivers" that Apple obviously withholds to make Windows/Linux look inferior.
tl;dr - Apple are cocksucking whores (but you already knew that)

I hate people like that. Just because they can easily afford expensive electronics they treat them like shit and couldn't care less if their shiny new iPhones get broken in half.

this, if i had a nice shiny iphone/ipodtouch/android phone i would keep it nice and safe (i dont get how these kids break their phones in goddamn half after a year of having them) so my parents can shower me with more products instead of buying the same one three times a year
I'm not particularly careful with my cell phone, I drop it all the time. it still looks like it's fresh out of the factory except that I'm running a custom rom. I don't understand how people can fuck their cell phones up so bad.

Also I think we all agree Apple as a company is dumb. With all these lawsuits and crap they throw out of their ass to get money you would think that the prices would be more reasonable

Can someone help me find a review for HP Pavilion dv laptops?
A "friend" of mine wants proof on their cooling systems being utter [I]shit.[/I]
He won't take my word for it on my own personal experience.
Tried googling for some but I only found ones that give them good praise; probably being paid to give good reviews...

I have a dv6408nr that I used to use before I bought my new laptop.
The thing does get incredibly hot. It never shut down or caused a problem, but I definitely didn't enjoy sitting with it on my laptop for any extended period of time.

If you can't find any reviews try comparing it to other better manufacturers.

I thought it was stupid. People don't accidentally mess their things up because they're "people are spoiled and don't take care of their things anymore", [I]it's because accidents happen,[/I] and I don't think you should expect people to take care of everything they have perfectly, regardless of the cost of the item.

the kind of accident that fucking breaks the screen has never happened to me and will never happen to me because i take care of my devices even slightly competently, e.g. screen protectors, plastic protective cases and that costs like what, 5$ for something that prevents it from breaking and having to buy another 250$ thing? (that usually they don't pay for)

Though, here's a conversation I had with a kid.

I said "Uhh, you realize that slamming the phone into the desk could break it, right?"
She told me "Oh, it's okay, because I have OtterBox."
