Crazy Lee Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 I need to fix the charger for my HP notebook. The rubber thing that comes out of the black box, for the cord to the notebook plug, is pulled out and causing the wires to come close to fraying. If only I could break open the charger box. And apple sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jtrekkie Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 My microwave exploded. I've fixed this box half a dozen times, but I have not known it to explode. That's new. And probably fatal.  I also left it's malfunctioning carcass on the counter while I'm gone for a few days. Hopefully no one tries go use it.  2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FenrirDarkWolf Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Me: -spinning in the bedroom on rifle. I'm always safe, I drop sometimes, but I never break anything- Roommate: If you drop that anywhere near my Xbox, I'm confinscating it. (he takes up over half of the bedroom) Me: If you confinscate it, I'm confinscating your laptop. Him: If you do that, I'm going to hit you. Me: I'll hit you right back, and then you can get the fuck out of my house. Him: -ignoring me, talking to his Xbox friends- He thinks he's entitled because this is his house, plus he's scared of the dark Me: -leaves the light on to help drive away nighttime paranoia- Do YOU have nighttime paranoia? Him: no -goes right back to ignoring me and talking shit about me right in front of me- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's not like the tablet's exactly old either. Also you can't use Sai on an ipad. EDIT: For that matter, I did a bit of investigation because I'm curious. Apple's 12 inch ipad pro on Amazon is $839, and the pen is $93. So altogether, that's $932. The smallest Cintiq model (at 13 inches) is $799. So it's still cheaper to just buy a Cintiq if you have neither. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexxx-Returns Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I hate that I've finally found a job that I really love, and I'm useless at it. I can't count the number of jobs I've had that I've hated but been told constantly about how good I was at. I sure hope I'm not doomed to suck at only the jobs I enjoy.

Yeah true, those are fine too and definitely cheaper; I'm just saying if somebody wants a more cintiq-like experience, as in the whole drawing-right-on-the-screen thing, it's technically a lot cheaper.  And even without SAI there's some really powerful drawing applications like Procreate. But yeah $99 fucking dollars is still ridiculous ngl.  Also, capacitative touch screens are notoriously hard to make styluses for. Up till now all the styluses have been really subpar; even the nicest one Wacom makes (which I own) doesn't work properly due to the inherent technical difficulties. That's why the iPad needed a special stylus and some updated screen tech in the latest models. I'm not sure if there's third-party support for the tech yet or not, but I've only heard good things about the iPencil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if there's third-party support for the tech yet or not, but I've only heard good things about the iPencil. Per my edit, it's still technically cheaper to get the smallest model of Cintiq, if you have neither. If you already have the ipad, it is cheaper to go for that option, though, but that's kind of obvious. Personally, I don't bother with tablets (the app kind) because they're too synonymous with modern phones... except they can't make calls or text. So I've never seen much point in owning one. I still find it pants-on-head retarded that the pen costs more than an entire brand new drawing tablet though. And my point about Sai is that I can use a computer drawing tablet for whatever program I want. Sai, Photoshop, hell even browser-based drawing programs. Seems like you're just paying more less function. But that seems to be Apple's general selling model anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The $799 Cintiq is 13 inches. The $839 ipad pro is 12.9 inches. And in tablets (both kinds) size can add hundreds of dollars onto the price tag, so I felt the comparison was the most fair one. I'm not going by refurbs because those can be all over the place, and are entirely dependent on when you happen to catch them. I'm just going by their retail market price brand new. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Lee Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 So, last Tuesday it was in the 50s, there were vicious storms, hail, and tornadoes. Yes, tornadoes in February in Michigan. Then it got all cold in the 20s and 30s until this week. This Tuesday there was storms that rolled through in the morning. I was out in my car in both of them. I saw pinhead sized hail. Today, we had retardedly high winds. 60-80mph gusts. Now my apartment has no power and I'm worried about my food spoiling and freezing to death in my apartment. Fridge is 45 degrees for the moment and apt is about 70 but let's see how long that lasts. Might put the food outside where it will stay cold. http://www.mlive.com/news/detroit/index.ssf/2017/03/second_largest_storm_in_dte_hi.html http://www.wxyz.com/news/power-outages-reported-across-metro-detroit-due-to-high-winds They're saying 650k people without power in the Detroit Metro area and 850k for the entire state...... I don't like how some of these news casts call it a "storm". There was no rain, no clouds, it was a clear day. A "wind storm" maybe, but not a thunderstorm. 5 hours ago, Sidewalk Surfboard said: I keep meaning to get into Electric Light Orchestra but I keep on forgetting.

Like I work harder/longer, but wages have been almost stagnant for a decade, while rent and electric and food have all gone way, way up, so there's this feeling that you just keep slipping behind, and are able to do less and less, and worry more and more. And getting older is no fun, I mean who wants that? Diseases, death, decay. Adulthood is over-rated; after all, it's the fountain of youth that has been so often sought in myth, not the fountain of middle age, or the fountain of senility.

Fossa Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 The grocery stores here in Maryland when there's even the faintest threat of snow: people stock up as if for a Zombie apocalypse, leaving the shelves denuded and bare, with lines stretching all the way down the isles...all for maybe 5 to 10 inches of snow.
