@eaglehooves
Cleveland, Ohio
http://eaglehooves.deviantart.com/Just as a clarification, the name (if I'm not using a gag one) is a reference to my time with the BSA. Three big interests (excluding ponies) are cars, computers, and scouting, and the last one means the most to me (There's a very long, personal, story there) (plus the fleur-de-leis looks nice). For the people linked here, the '/signature' is pretty much my universal signature for texts and emails, and the one thing that my pony and non-pony accounts have in common across the web. Other than that, I'm your average pegasus from the suburbs.
Also, I finally got a dedicated e-mail: eaglehooves (at) gmail, a dedicated pony Skype: eagle.hooves, and am on Steam as "Lord Elusive"

@jla For me, if I need non-open drivers, I'm not throwing away hardware that cost 30% of my system price on a principal.
-
@redenchilada OS/2 is master race.
-
@toksyuryel Someone (not you) was trying to push Linux on someone who didn't sound ready. I was just throwing in my two bits.
-
@toksyuryel I've multi-booted everything, and my opinion is to run whatever your good with. Trying to show Linux to a non computer person was one of the more painful things I've done.
-
@widget EXACTLY! I know people who paid $120 for a nVidia NVS in their laptop, but use Intel HD graphics on principle.
-
@toksyuryel Are we getting into this whole thing again? Sure I'd love it if everything is free and whatnot, but at the end of the day, I still need stuff that works.
-
@techdisk42 :D
-
@techdisk42 Hm?
-
@vampixxkitty Usually that's the cause of cursor bugs. Linux freezes and Windows jumps like Pinkie on caffeine without the official driver on mine (generics suck).
-
@vampixxkitty Sounds like a driver issue. My laptop needs a few no matter what I install.
-
@vampixxkitty I don't like Ubuntu personally, but there should be no lack of software. I've got Mint 13 on one of my laptops, and it's great.
-
@vampixxkitty What distro did you use?
-
@nerthos You [i]want[/i] to read my term paper?
-
@nerthos I'm fairly decent, but my last work was less fantasy and more theoretical engineering. [i]I[/i] even felt sleepy reading it back to myself.
-
@nerthos If I knew the first thing about writing, I'd fix that. (First thing is that words go on the page, I can probably figure that out. If I knew the second thing...)
-
@nerthos Literal ships. I love it.
-
@thatonepony I wouldn't know. Only reason I'm ever near a mall is because there's usually a theater there.
-
@thatonepony Not really. Only decent fic I've read in the past month or two was 'Anthropology'.
-
@thatonepony I got nothing, so I figured I might as well try.
-
@thatonepony But how else are we going to embarrass you?
-
@eaglehooves *off
-
@thatonepony True. I just don't know anything as (intentionally) poorly written of the top of my head.
-
@thatonepony Spiderses.
-
@nerthos I'll try to remember to tag you when I do. Not happening tonight. Too many people on the wifi.
-
@nerthos I dunno. TrotCon had some good ones, as soon as I get around to uploading.
-
@sliverfeather When nothing happens for 3-4 minutes, I think the script bug has come back, even if that one was fixed months ago.
-
Can't tell if quiet, or wifi on the fritz. :/
-
@minti I never actually played that.
-
Once again, "apple".

@cajunbrony23 Because you need to sooner or later.
