holy crap so much apple hate

They market clean, easy to use products - that's why they sell. Now, I'm no real apple fan, in fact I'm incredibly happy to be off of iPhone at this point, but their products are generally solid and they know how to make money off of their target market.

they market overpriced piles of shit

You severely overestimate how much their product being overpriced actually matters to their target demographic.

i think it's a scummy thing for a company to exploit their customers ignorance to such a high degree

who's to say they are exploiting ignorance? what if they only need mediocre performance, and have the disposable income to spend, so they pump that cash into the aesthetic and status of a product rather than the performance that they don't need.

but i'm having a good time with the apple hate, on a league forum.


idk man

I realize that there are literally all other PCs that get better performance results for cheaper, but I've never used a computer that has a user experience like a Mac.

all computers When working properly, they're are easy, intuitive if its what you grew up on, and aethetically pleasing if its your taste, and not just in the bodies. When they're working, they tend to just work. And I don't feel like they break any more often (probably less often) than PCs. It's just that when they DO break, they're fucked and you're fucked because bye bye money

Also, specifically against PCs: Unix is simply better than w/e shit terminals and organization Windows has.

true unix is better but i dual boot to linux at home and have a virtual machine with my server installed at work so meh. is mac terminal actually that good?

I'm only about an hour and a half ish from it. Got a 30d/5u internet connection, N64, nice blow up mattress, and the penchant for drinking and games. Come visit!

For real. If anyone tryna sugarloaf I'm down town Leroy Brown. PM me.

@PX anything you can think of man. Jerking it? Pleasuring a woman? Pleasuring a man? Using a hammer? Putting on a seatbelt? Holding a pipe?

How can you wear a watch on two hands!!??

neither of my hands is dominant so the second poll has no option for me . I put the watch on whatever hand doesn't reach for the watch.


Which hand do you write with? Draw with? Golf? Use a knife? Tennis? Bat? Hold your whiskey? I want a comprehensive list of things PX does and with which hand he completes that task. Due in twenty minutes max. MLA citations please.

@asmo & soniv Why the hate??


Maine is the south of the north. People are so slow and have nowhere to be at any particular time, so they just mosey and fuck off. I'm not one for the super hectic city life, but I've always been a suburbanite. I don't want no country in my Northeast.

You moved from CT to the shittiest section of MA. Asmo and I can bond over our love of the city of Boston.

JonGalt just misses the white powder ever since his African days. Now he gets his fix by boarding on it. Oh and skis are better.

Well after living in Africa, even maine can seem fast paced. I actually notice myself walking far slower than most people nowadays.

Plus I love Boston. My birthplace

lol so much hyperbole

But yeah, it's good. I enjoy using it. Linux is probably better, but I don't want to boot Linux since it's a hassle to do other stuff other than programming with it, imo.

You traditionally wear a watch on your non-dominant hand. No one is gonna monitor you and call you out for wearing it on your dominant hand but it's just tradition.

they are exploiting ignorance because anyone who has an understanding of what apple is charging them for would just build a machine with equal or better parts for less then install their flavor of *nix or BSD and be done with it


But that takes time and expertise that not everyone has/can/want to spare, and some people like the Apple OS since it works well with other Apple devices if you have them.


I see. Now that I think about it my dad palms it on his left hand not right. I really only want to get one for fashion since these days phones are way superior in function to watches in almost every way. My hands are really small so limited with what nice watches I can go :<


It's more about how thick your wrists are than how big/small your hands are. Big watches look awkward on thin wrists, though dial size, outside of extremes, is usually less relevant than the lug size. That said there are plenty of watches at various sizes so I'm sure you can find something.

And I don't think many people wear watches primarily for functionality these days. Watches are jewelry and should be treated as such.


I kind of didn't want to say I have tiny wrists so I said hands instead . By lug size do you mean the exterior around the dial? I also wonder how your skin tone effects the look of the watch. I'm a pretty light Portuguese skin tone which I'm not sure how well it'll go with the full silver kind of watches.

Heh thinking about it, most of these are the same motion. ummm

I catch footballs instinctively with my left, i throw darts with my right, seatbelt is whichever arm is closest, left hand drivers side right hand passengers sign, awkward looking around to find the damn seatbelt riding in the middle, smoke whichever hand is furthest from the group, for courtesy's sake. I knead bread with my left but mix with my right, I open bottles with whatever hand is holding the bottle, open cans the same way. almost everything is down to convenience.

I have never said West MA is best MA - most of my friends are out near Boston. I wish I was there, but I have a job here.

But you guys can keep kidding yourselves, Boston is a shit hole of a city. I will take driving in NYC over driving in Boston 8 days of the week.

linux is pretty reasonable to game on right now
definitely much better than mac support for most games

you also don't have to jump through hoops if you just want to dual boot windows and switch to game.
osx still makes you do some bullshit w/ bootcamp just to get windows working on their hardware

A lot of computer scientists and programmers use Mac. They are expensive but well built, and OS X is UNIX with a well done GUI and a lot of sane defaults. Those guys don't lack money either.

Even Linus Torvalds, the author of Linux kernel, uses a MacBook Air (with Fedora).

But yeah, it's good. I enjoy using it. Linux is probably better, but I don't want to boot Linux since it's a hassle to do other stuff other than programming with it, imo.

I don't think i used more hyperbole than you and yeah i dont know anything about osX terminal so i believe you about that.


"Literally all other PCs" though? Clearly you never used the Dells I've been issued at work.

Yo dual booting linux on windows became extremely obnoxious with Windows 8. It went crib really easy I can do this no problem in 20 minutes to why the fuck even bother difficult.

Or I'm the worst computer scientist ever.

Or both.

holy crap so much apple hate

They market clean, easy to use products - that's why they sell. Now, I'm no real apple fan, in fact I'm incredibly happy to be off of iPhone at this point, but their products are generally solid and they know how to make money off of their target market.

they market overpriced piles of shit

You severely overestimate how much their product being overpriced actually matters to their target demographic.

i think it's a scummy thing for a company to exploit their customers ignorance to such a high degree

who's to say they are exploiting ignorance? what if they only need mediocre performance, and have the disposable income to spend, so they pump that cash into the aesthetic and status of a product rather than the performance that they don't need.

but i'm having a good time with the apple hate, on a league forum.


idk man

I realize that there are literally all other PCs that get better performance results for cheaper, but I've never used a computer that has a user experience like a Mac.

all computers When working properly, they're are easy, intuitive if its what you grew up on, and aethetically pleasing if its your taste, and not just in the bodies. When they're working, they tend to just work. And I don't feel like they break any more often (probably less often) than PCs. It's just that when they DO break, they're fucked and you're fucked because bye bye money

Also, specifically against PCs: Unix is simply better than w/e shit terminals and organization Windows has.

You traditionally wear a watch on your non-dominant hand. No one is gonna monitor you and call you out for wearing it on your dominant hand but it's just tradition.

they are exploiting ignorance because anyone who has an understanding of what apple is charging them for would just build a machine with equal or better parts for less then install their flavor of *nix or BSD and be done with it


But that takes time and expertise that not everyone has/can/want to spare, and some people like the Apple OS since it works well with other Apple devices if you have them.


I see. Now that I think about it my dad palms it on his left hand not right. I really only want to get one for fashion since these days phones are way superior in function to watches in almost every way. My hands are really small so limited with what nice watches I can go :<


It's more about how thick your wrists are than how big/small your hands are. Big watches look awkward on thin wrists, though dial size, outside of extremes, is usually less relevant than the lug size. That said there are plenty of watches at various sizes so I'm sure you can find something.

And I don't think many people wear watches primarily for functionality these days. Watches are jewelry and should be treated as such.


I kind of didn't want to say I have tiny wrists so I said hands instead . By lug size do you mean the exterior around the dial? I also wonder how your skin tone effects the look of the watch. I'm a pretty light Portuguese skin tone which I'm not sure how well it'll go with the full silver kind of watches.


Lugs are the four claw-like things that the watchstrap attaches to. Lug width/length is an important measurement

[image loading]

Lugs can be almost non-existent to massive. If you have a similar colored metal strap the lug usually blends in and isn't really noticeable, but would be more noticeable with a leather strap.

If you have small hands you can wear a bigger dialed watch with shorter lugs or a smaller dial with bigger dials.

I have super tiny wrists so I went with a smaller watch that had longer lugs and it looks fine. I doubt you have thinner wrists than me

https://www.dropbox.com/s/p4m1agpmnmf5rng/20141124_205310.jpg?dl=0

It's a bit hard to see but the lugs are really long, it's curved so it looks shorter than it is from this angle. (Nomos watches have really long lugs)

Another angle

https://www.dropbox.com/s/cqo9yg2i7mntp2g/20141124_210701.jpg?dl=0

For reference the dial diameter is 35mm, the lug width (not length) is 18mm. I have like...uh...~6.5inch circumference wrists? Not sure don't have a measurement. Just know I'm anorexic and I 99.999% have thinner wrists than you :3
