With the newer laptops, I didn't see any improvement in processing speed -- for me that means browsing the Internet and YouTube, not gaming -- even though they had better specs. Eventually it will get to the point where I will be forced to upgrade, but the advancements in the operating system (I'm using Windows 7) have yet to make my computer obsolete.
I bought a new laptop last year, and it was a 100% improvement over my old one. Then again, though, my old one was running on 4 gigs of RAM, whereas this one is running on 8. Windows 8 is what it is, not bad, not good in my opinion. But when I buy another one, I'm seriously considering going with Apple.

For me it was the newer touch pad technologies that were barely receptive to touch and they combine the left/right clicks in one. Wheras with this one, it's butter smooth and there is separation of the buttons. A few other quirks like that, combined with the fact that speed improvements are negligeable for my use. Mine is one of those HP Media computers, so that's probably why it can still handle the Internet as it currently exists.

Haven't used 8. I have the automatic update for Windows 10 sitting in my icon tray, but I haven't used it.

I actually game on mine a little (shocker, I know), and for what I use it for, it handles it just fine. I have the Windows 10 updater but I haven't felt like taking my lappy out of commission until it updates for however long it updates for. Mostly because I'm too lazy to let it run through and such. Thoughts on Apple?

Well, I hate locked systems of any kind, and i hate iTunes. Software is clunky as can be. I've never used a Mac, though, so I can't say with certainty as far as hardware goes or the operating system. I hear that they're better for media editing and so forth, but I'm a Google/Android kind of guy. Just my preference.

Tfw you stare forward so long that everything in front of you blends and flattens and next thing you know you're on your back looking up at a sky made out of styrofoam. Then you blink and lose it, it's just trees.

Frownland 09-15-2015 09:07 PM
TFW you have a creative writing homework assignment, but you get writer's block so you pull a Hemingway and get drunk but at the end of your run on sentence you pass out and end up missing your deadline.

Youre such a good student.

At least I go to class sober. Well, not sober exactly, I just don't go to class drunk. Everything else I can handle.

DwnWthVwls 09-16-2015 01:26 PM
Yeh I used to do that.. Drove to college with a 2 liter filled with water and an ice tea pitcher. Set up my gravity bong in the back of my jeep to use before my classes.

Now I'm sober all the time. :-/

RoxyRollah 09-16-2015 01:26 PM
Loser.

Chula Vista 09-16-2015 01:29 PM
TFW when you take your first bite of food after not eating anything for 41 hours. Made even better by the fact that you're still a bit woozy from anesthesia.

Subway and cool ranch Doritos never tasted so good!

FRED HALE SR. 09-16-2015 01:35 PM
That feeling when you are starving and even Subway and Cool Ranch Doritos sound good. I need a falafel stat.

I just shoot up in the bathroom closest to my class.

... when your girlfriend's music video starts to go viral...

Mr. Charlie 09-16-2015 05:28 PM
I dislike the word viral. Makes me think of disease and infection.

Agreed... can seem a bit odd to celebrate something going 'viral'. Yet, we give everything all of the meaning it has for us.

Seriously? You make good food and this is the shit you eat after fasting?

:banghead:

Timeliness may have something to do with it.

Bingo. The place I had the procedure at is about 45 mins from my house.

DwnWthVwls 09-16-2015 06:20 PM
That's really not an excuse.. as if Subway is the only place that serves food close by. You would have been better off swallowing the load of a homeless man.

If he was a minor he could basically get the same treatment at subway.

lol

Chula Vista 09-16-2015 06:34 PM
Well, the doctor said no greasy or heavy food plus Subway was the first place we came across. I don't mind them at all and I was starving.

Turkey sub with pepper jack cheese, green peppers, tomatoes, pickles, and honey mustard really hit the spot.

DwnWthVwls 09-16-2015 06:51 PM
Whatever tickles your fancy. Time to get back in the recipe thread.

Viruses don't cause infections. Dumbass.

Dude, you can't cure a virus. What did your mother do to you as a child?

DwnWthVwls 09-16-2015 10:01 PM
Told me Batlord was my father and I'm destine to be a failure.

I guess your mother is smarter than I gave her credit for. Almost makes me regret giving her a fake number.

I guess I only just noticed this sentence, but... WHAT?!?!

Mr. Charlie 09-17-2015 06:47 AM
All meaning is man-made and personal.

RoxyRollah 09-17-2015 06:54 AM
Meh

You mean the world to me, Roxy. ;)

Yes, but that was the most pretentious and indecipherable way to say that I've ever heard.

Oriphiel 09-18-2015 02:51 PM
TFW you realize that Elizabeth Daily did the voice of Tommy Pickles from Rugrats, as well as Buttercup from The Powerpuff Girls, and sang at the dance in Better Off Dead. :laughing:

tfw you go through your steam games list and uninstall a bunch of games you don't play anymore and simultaneously free up over 200gb of space on your hard drive.

The Batlord 09-19-2015 07:13 PM
TFW you drop your external hard drive and now you have to redownload all your music. Thank god my comics were backed up, at least.
