Corollary: I don't do small talk. Especially when I'm trying to focus on something. Don't try, lest you get irritated at my lack of responding and I get irritated at the noise.

@tinwhistle @abigpony :p ponehs irl be invadin' my spaces.

Addendum: I don't care about your random "must-see" movies, shows, Youtube videos, games, etc. My to-watch list is already beyond the capacity of completion. If you'd like to show them in public to a whole party yourself, feel free and I might watch. Don't be annoyed at my lack of interest from your vague synopsis of how "awesome" something is.

!techponies Thinking of picking up a small (60-80GB) SSD to run a couple games off of. That, combined with the reasonable amount of storage space on my two remaining slooooooooow HDDs should tide me over until I can afford something with a little more breathing room. || Never had an SSD before, and it looks like my usual hard drive tactic of "get a WD/Seagate" isn't going to work very well. Anypony have any recommendations, or advice on what to look for? || Do keep in mind that I'm a starving college student, so budget is a big issue; also, I'm Canadian, so I'd prefer something from NCIX or DirectCanada; newegg.ca and tigerdirect.ca are also acceptable.

My new 32gb Micro SD card arrived yesterday (old one fell out of my phone after said phone fell off my desk, and due to their incredibly small size finding it has been nothing short of impossible) and I've been working on rebuilding my music, video etc libraries, starting with all the FiM episodes. I'm downloading them via TubeMate (Unofficial YouTube Downloader app for Android, need to download it from the browser) and it's taking quite some time. I would just torrent them all, but I torrented them all in good quality and they lagged on my phone big time, downloading them through TubeMate to ensure that doesn't happen, even if it does take longer. !techponies !androidbronies

So... Yeah. New monitor. It'd be on a new computer, except I haven't received my RAM or wireless card yet. Attached to my netbook? Well. . . Yeah. That's my netbook down there on the bottom. !techponies http://2tu.us/3n8s

@eaglehooves heh My new desktop will be using my dead laptop's HDD (along with a new SSD for the OS).

@scribus My roommate has Ubuntu on a SSD. Worked like a dream till Dropbox burned out a sector.
-
@eaglehooves Yikes. >.< Actually, now that I think about it, my netbook is an 8 GB SSD, it's been groovy all along. Not a lot of Dropbox experience, though. . .

So I walked out and abandoned a shopping cart full of computer parts at Fry's just now. They wouldn't sell me what I wanted. I tell them, "I want this," and they say, "We have a lovely that, which is not what you want and is more expensive." Or, I point to a card and say, "I'll take that," and lo and behold they don't have that item they're advertising in-store. TLDR - #firstworldproblems I'm buying my computer online after all. !techponies
-
@astra Now I see why so many members of my Linux group sneer when they mention Fry's.

@scribus Weak. Sauce.

@gangstashy Oh, I am having a decidedly non-pony rant over it with a friend.

Oh, I love it when a web search turns up outdated tech articles... Search: "Motherboard buyer's guide." Results include things like: "If you want to take advantage of the newest dual-core processors..." or "Newer motherboards will probably use DDR3 RAM." So very informative. #sacrasm !techponies #firstworldproblems

Did a total factory reset of my phone...why may you ask? Because most of my applications (I'd guess more than 3/4 of them) were installed onto my 32gb Micro SD Card...which got lost in my room when my phone fell off of my desk earlier. Finding it is going to be impossible, what with how miniscule those things are, and how much stuff there is in my room. All of my FiM episodes, music, pictures...it's all replaceable, but rebuilding it is going to be a nightmare, plus I have to burn a whole in my wallet and order a new one...(The fact that I still experience frequent Launcher Crashes even after said reset really irritates me as well! #FirstWorldPains !techponies !androidbronies

This video makes a really good point, if you want an iPad 2 for Christmas, it may be a good idea to wait a few months. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlPLbXbxLnY&list=FLIVA_kxxyutNsSObA86tLtg&index=2&feature=plpp_video !techponies

@yodelerty See, it's not a matter of Windows Vista being out dated, it's a matter of it sucking from the very moment it was released and always staying that way.
-
@leonkfox And the reason they released Windows 7 so soon after. My mom doesn't seem to notice the crap that is Vista, and she doesn't even have a smart phone, so I doubt she'll care about having an outdated iPad a few months down the road.
-
@yodelerty I used to have a laptop with Vista on it, I really didn't mind it at first, but after a few months it started to get on my nerves something awful. (Similar to how my experience with Android has turned, though it took considerably longer for me to grow tired of it than it did with Vista)

It's like I'm really stuck in an old Windows screensaver!

@rpb3000 Also, PA didn't give in, they were forcibly shut down form the outside
-
@tenmihara What is illegal in one country, the US in this instance, doesn't necessarily apply to other countries. PA was not a US entity. Also, legality does not imply righteousness.
-
@rpb3000 Valid points; I guess there would be some discrepancy between regional copyright laws. However, to say that one regions laws are entirely invalid in a different region wouldn't be right. For example, if someone robbed a Duty Free Store, then went back across the border; the guards on the other side would still arrest him for theft.
