    I went to a job interview dressed as The Riddler, but was turned away. Riddle me this, why didn't I get the job?

    So why don't people use Photobucket or Snapfish or Snapzilla or VillagePhotos or Zoto or TinyPic or SmugMug or Greatest Journal or...

    My personal favorite DeviantArt?

    There's not much of a story here except that if you commit to one hosting service, you run the risk of them being complete jerks with your content choice.

    Alyx Vance, for example? She was a brilliant scientist who knew her way with a gun and built huge robots for fun. If she is not a strong female character, I don't know who is.

    Or Yeesha from the Myst series? Inteligent, Strong (of mind and will, as opposed to muscles).

    Here's the adult version of her:

    I'm sorry, but nobody in the photos of the event could ever pass for a genuine Apple user, like these beautiful and stylish souls. It's no surprise they've decided to switch their school system to Dell.

    Don't bother trying to explain; it's lost on this crowd. They'll never appreciate the beauty or elegance of the Mac.

  7. Sticking feathers up your butt... by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll · on More Mac OS X on Plain Old x86 Boxes

    These guys installing OS X on their PCs make me sick. What do they hope to accomplish? It won't make them stylish, fashionable, or aesthetically intuitive, it won't liberate them or make them creative, and it certainly won't make them as beautiful or interesting as we old-school Mac users. You can't change who you are. You can't polish a turd. As the saying goes: Once a PC user, always a PC user.

    Damn right. No true Mac user would be caught dead toting a PC.

  9. OS X on PCs won't make any difference by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 1, Insightful · on Mac OS X Running on Non-Apple Hardware

    Once a PC user, always a PC user. After years of careful study, it is now known that while one's personality may determine his or her choice of OS, the reverse is never the case. In other words, nothing can rob these happy souls of their superior creativity, intellect, and style--but then neither, alas, can anything be done to rescue people like these from eternal virginity. No matter how much time they spend in Mac OS X, Darwin, FreeBSD, or Pianos, they are doomed to live as shadows among men. The more fortunate among us should mourn them--for theirs, truly, are the lives of the never-been. It is nature's cruel will.

    you know Mr.AC, somewhere in between your joking of quantum, my half-reading of this article and then my meandering over their interesting image I was struck with how strange this curling of DNA looked.

    I mean, on one hand it looks tangled and inelegant. But then I think how it twists this way because of the fundamental laws of my favorite place (the universe).

    I've just always wondered what the heck those curly clouds are? this is a high-altitude test of a megaton hydrogen bomb (this is the last atmospheric test by the united states, operation name "tightrope") so that blast is many kilometers (which are like miles) in diameter. those curly clouds intrigue me to no end.

    the curves of nature amaze me...even if the math sometimes draws my antipathy.

    Personally, I don't play Oni mode myself, even though my Perfect Attacking abilities are good enough to net me at fifteen AAs on Heavy (go me! =D [note: that was done on the home version of Extreme that I patched to have timing windows similar to that of the arcade, though I'll probably start taking more pictures at the arcade now that I have a digital camera]).

    If you're looking for a nice DDR platform and have a bit of money to kill, I wholeheartedly recommend the Cobalt Flux. Expensive, yes, but it will practically never break and it has a kickass warranty. As soon as I get my paycheck this week I'm buying one for myself and selling my old metal pad.

    By the way, I friended you, it's nice to see some other DDR players around here. =D
