  1. Damn, my rooms a mess. I just clear a mountain of pony related doodle off my desk and found an eraser I've been looking for for a month, 3 screws, 2 starburst wrappers, and a set of lenses for the # glasses you get at the movie theater. Also I Have everything ranging from coffee cups to carpet strip and a multitude of closet doors in my room. What happened?

    1. @andranator2 Life. I've got enough computer stuff on mine for an entire second setup.

      1. @eaglehooves Is it good computer stuff or crap computer stuff?

        1. @andranator2 The second motherboard and processor and extra RAM are crap, but the extra keyboard, mouse, monitor, and HDDs are good. I've got them all docked to the good laptop for the evening.

          1. @eaglehooves How big are the HDDs?

            1. @andranator2 I've got a 500Gb in the laptop now, a 500Gb external backup, and Linux systems installed on 120 and 60Gb ones for tinkering projects.

              1. @eaglehooves What kind of linux systems you got on the HDDS

                1. @andranator2 HDDs

                2. @andranator2 Ubuntu 11.10, Mint 11, and Mint 12. The partition table on the Ubuntu/Mint 12 one is shot at the moment, though. Probably just going to wipe it with something else, I don't really like either.

                    1. @andranator2 You run Linux?

                      Thursday, 08-Dec-11 06:10:42 UTC from web
                      1. @eaglehooves No, I'm lazy and just run window XP on my desktop and Windows & on my laptop.

                        1. @andranator2 Windows 7

                          Thursday, 08-Dec-11 06:14:10 UTC from web
                  2. @eaglehooves I don't bother with linux I just do Java programming and that's about all nowadays except for programming my robot.

                    1. @andranator2 That's pretty cool. I just wanted something faster than my extremely bloated copy of 7. Windows still ponifies better. Ubuntu doesn't seem to like having pastel ponies shoved at it.

                      1. @eaglehooves LOL, I haven't ponified my desktop very well because it's the family computer and my laptop is currently being held hostage by my dad until the desktop gets moved back out of my room.

                        1. @andranator2 I ponify ALL the things. Next semester I think I'm hitting the lab computers, then my work if I can do it without my co-workers realizing it's me.

                          1. @eaglehooves I hit the lab computers all the time, its fun because my teach leaves me alone in the lab all the time so I either rick roll everypony or ponify all the things. He leant me his laptop for some robotics programming and I Changed his chrome theme, his background, and changed all of his icons to ponies.

                            1. @andranator2 I've got wallpapers and icons on a thumb drive ready to go, but there's no more labs till late January. :(

                  3. @eaglehooves how do you like Mint? I never had any luck with it, but it has been a while.

                    1. @scribus 11 I like, but it's a bit big (although it is on an older slower spinning drive than my windows). I might go to something slimmer. 12 the new desktop is awful.

                      1. @eaglehooves It's not Unity, is it?

                        Thursday, 08-Dec-11 06:45:19 UTC from MuSTArDroid
                        1. @scribus GNOME 2 in 11, and GNOME 3 in 12. 3 is a lot like unity.

                          1. @eaglehooves I'm not nuts about Unity, but I still like it more than the OSX dock.

                            Thursday, 08-Dec-11 06:51:19 UTC from MuSTArDroid
                            1. @scribus OSX annoys me. It may look sleek, but Windows I know exactly what I'm doing.

                              1. @eaglehooves My biggest issue with the dock is how people act like it is SO revolutionary when Win 95 had the same thing, just uglier.
