  1. i think its pretty user friendly... maybe not if you are a complete moron. but my girlfriend has no problem using our linux desktop, and she is def. not the most tech savvy person. go to www.ubuntu.com download the CD image, burn to a CD. then if you restart your computer with that CD in there, it will let you boot into linux, and you can try it out for a little bit. it doesnt have 100% functionality, but its a nice little demo, you can mess around with and see how you like it. plus you can do things like this with it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZD7QraljRfM
  2. where is the macbook for 929? on the apple site its listed as 999. you can get a base dell inspiron 13 for 819, 3GB memory, 320 GB HDD, it doesnt have the Nvida card, so thats a plus for the mac i guess. the battery on both are 55whr.

  4. i dont really think maddox is that funny, but he may be onto something here: http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net/c.cgi?u=macs_cant One thing PC users can do that Mac users cant: SHUT THE FUCK UP. Ever notice how most Mac users are skinny? It's because of all the calories they burn because they can't shut the fuck up about how great their Macs are. What is it about Apple that makes its users unable to shut their mouths? Everywhere I go, there's another asshole with a Mac preaching about how much better Macs are than PCs. They regurgitate lines directly from Apple's marketing campaign, like "it just works." I have the following rebuttals to this argument: 1. If everything on a Mac just works, then why does a website called "Mac fix it" exist, assholes? Here are a few choice topics on macfixitforums.com: -Login window stuck! -lower caSe "S" key not working!! -Menu bar keeps flashing -I can't drag and drop! Waaaah, boo hoo! I can't drag and drop! Dumbass. Looks like your Macs aren't perfect after all, which leads me to my second point: 2. Fuck you. I don't know why Mac users get so defensive when you call them idiots. I mean, Apple is a company that has built its entire user base around the fact that its users can't do simple things like turn their computers on. Hell, most Mac users can't even talk without using their hands, which ranks their intelligence somewhere between a simian and hog shit: Stupid user base aside, I will never own a Mac. It's not so much that I'm a PC loyalist. I'm not. It's that I'm not stylish enough to own one. Most iPod commercials feature guys with long hair, chicks roller skating, and guys wearing fedoras. I have dandruff, and I buy most of my jeans from a grocery store. I feel like in order to have a Mac, I need to be: # An artist. # In a band. # Unemployed (see above). After the recent Apple conference, Mac fans were elated. One person was quoted as saying "I've had a Macintosh now for a total of 35 days, and I'm really excited to be part of the Mac community." Part of the Mac community? It's a computer, not a social movement, asshole! I feel like Apple is not just selling computers, they're selling a way of life, and I'm not ready to be that heavily invested in a product.
  5. gps... pfft. people navigated the earth for thousands of years without GPS. its not the knee driving thats the problem IMO. its the fact that when you are texting, you are not looking at the road. you are pretty much driving blind. actually, i think a blind person may actually drive better

    stupid hurts!

    wasnt the drilled ECU on a zx10?
  7. studies show that drivers who text and drive are MORE imparied than a drunk driver. if thats true, then the penalties should be the same.
  8. macs are too expensive for what you actually get inside. a PC is a much better value. with the mac you are paying for image and shiny white plastic. vista does suck though...

    Jenkem

    jenkem isnt real. its just a joke. but that doesnt stop cops from pretty much copying a whole page off a website about it lol butthash.
  11. find this dude. he will show you some shit.
  12. lol thats either the quickest yellow light ever, or you have seriously misjudged your braking ability. i definitely agree. but they are too busy running radar. funny, because speed is not a primary cause of accidents, however running a red light is. besides that, they probably have more important things to worry about than traffic enforcement. at least here in columbus they do. im not sure about in zanesville, but here, the cameras work on the same principal that is used to change the signal when you pull up. there is a magnetic sensor in the street. most bike will not make the light change when you pull up. they also will not set off the sensor when you run the red light. also, the cameras only go off if you are exceeding the speed limit. their main goal is to catch people who had no intention of stopping. if you stay under the limit, you can cruise right through the light no worries
  13. those things do not work AT ALL. OSHP installed them on their cruisers a few years back, and they actually hit MORE deer than the year before lol.
  14. people still pay for long distance these days?
  15. as long as its between the two lines, IMO its fine. how much oil do you think you put in total? if it calls for 2.2 and you put in 2.4, thats really not that big of a deal.
  16. im going to make you eat my shit. then shit out my shit and eat your shit which is made up of my shit i made you eat.
  17. this story was on the CNN front page all day. this is whats wrong with america. and why is it front page news on CNN? this kind of shit should be on E! and thats about it. why should any one give a fuck about kanye or taylor swift? if they both died tomorrow, oh well... anything to keep your mind off the war or anything else of real importance i guess...
  18. yeah +1 to the mity vac. it makes it very easy. you can also get some speedbleeders too. those make it pretty easy too.
