considering that the average computer user has more exposure to windows operating systems. if they have that much money to throw around they should just by a windows machine and not have to deal with relearning everything they already know and the inevitable compatibility issues that arise every time they go into work and are expected to have their stuff work on a windows machine
LL is running super slow for me today, dunno if anyone else is having this.

I really wish inner ear buds weren't so popular, I fucking hate them In-ears are the only ones I can use everything else just falls off. And I mean it's not like anyone is forcing you to buy in-ears so why the hate. it's significantly more difficult to find ear buds that are not in-ear anymore. so i understand the dislike. he can't be helped that your ears are shaped funny. ^ Non-inner ear buds are far more rare at this point, especially ones that are comfortable and won't fall off I had a decent pair for working out that wrapped around my ear and was sorta pseudo inner ear, that were pretty comfortable, but they ded
Well if in-ears are the norm now then maybe Soniv's ears are the ones that are shaped funny.

It'd make more sense if I was like 5'2", 5'8" is pretty much right in the middle of average. @110lbs that's tiny
Yea but weight doesn't factor into the Veigar comparison since Veigar's shtick is that he's short, not that he's thin.

My brother also can't really use inner ear but his ears are really small and funny for his head lol.
@Cheep - Thanks I see what you saying now. I'll keep a look out for that.
Dam I'm like 1.6m(5.2 feet) and 56kg(123 pounds)

you're essentially arguing "why do rich people spend ludicrous amounts of money on shit?"

Are we doing size comparisons?
I'm clocking in at ~6.2 feet at about ~170 give or take a pound.
I think I fit the Veigar description much better than Cheep!

Hmm I could live with that. Trying to put on weight is so freaking hard. At least I'm not losing any while training.

I recently lost 10 pounds because I had gotten fat.

Whereas in actuality Soniv is, simply, a scrub.

Whenever I see 5' I think "oh hey, that's tiny" but the difference between 1" and 9" is 20cm so... yup.

I'm like the same size as Frudgey, lol.
A bit skinnier I think, though, I haven't weighed myself in a while and I definitely lost weight.
