I know we all love ragging on facebook for its anti-user and anti-privacy practices, myself included, but the entire idea behind social networks was sharing things with people. If you don't want something on the internet, don't put it there.
I built a new rig back in March, went with the Phenom II 975 Black Edition. Haven't been disappointed, as it's still a good bit faster than the Core2 P8400 in my laptop. I'm still holding out hope AMD comes out with a better gaming processor, though, so I don't have to change motherboards when I do decide to upgrade...
What kills me is that people are going to eat that shit up. They don't realize that they hold a PC in their hand which just so happens to have a phone app. My first computer had an AMD k6-2 300mhz processor (I'm 22, see UID), and I was astounded when I realized my OG Droid had double the compute power. It only took a decade for that to go from being the latest and greatest to being in the palm of your hand being used for fart apps. Tegra games already rival the current-gen consoles in terms of graphics.
PCs aren't dead, they're better than they ever have been before.
In other news, Steve Jobs shits his grave knowing his precious screens are used to display black bars.

Do you take Bitcoin?
Help! I'm being repressed!
Don't give them any ideas.

Doesn't Apple already has a patent on the Reality Distortion Field?
To be fair, he circumvented the Apple's DRM protection. They didn't much like that.

Come to WV. I wasn't ID'ed, even had it out and ready.
I would have upgraded because of the new task manager and better file transfers alone. But sadly, I can't justify it, either.

Please state the nature of the existential emergency.
Voyager just left the solar system and we're already trying to bring it home?
I won't even pay for antivirus, because it's all yearly subscription. Give me a one time charge, and we might talk.
This isn't just a port. It's a fully re-envisioned remake utilizing 100% new models, textures, sounds, etc.
since it's made out of glass and all.

All this has happened before, and it will happen again.
Maybe so, but investigating is a lot easier when you have dirt to investigate.
I absolutely loathe Apple. But if they made their tech here in the states, I admit I would be one of the first in line to buy it.
It's right below Chrome on W8, in second place under the Google V8 tests.
Perhaps Valve could release their own distro with gaming in mind, as it might help unify the community. I could get behind that in a heartbeat.
But I couldn't boot into my OS.
At least they didn't pull an Office and go straight to 365.
I like my coffee like I like my women: hot, strong, and black.
I'll just leave this here.
