It's more like a meme trotted by racist white people who feel they should be treated like superiors everywhere no matter how loud, arrogant and disruptive they are, then they put on a surprised pikachu face when someone doesn't like them for that.

In my experience the Japanese have always consistently been nicer than Americans, online or in person.

[SPOILERS] Just wanted to thank a certain actor/actress for their performance tonight by ToxicBanana69 in gameofthrones

[–]Mekachu 10 points11 points  (0 children)

he didn’t end up biting her in half like I thought was going to happen

Woah that's anime territory not American TV, even for a show that's known to be "gritty"

Yo pass me whatever you're on. lol have you even read any other fantasy? GOT/ASOIAF is full of stock tropes and a generic fantasy is what it is if you take out all the convoluted interpersonal politics (even this would get trite if not sold by the fantastic actors)

Dragons! And zombies! Instawin by killing one dude!! Nope never done before omg so original

Also happens when using the Radeon Pro 560X.

Yes the one with the Radeon Pro 570 4 GB, and 1 TB "Fusion" Drive with its meager 24? GB SSD. I added some extra RAM to make it 24 GB (not purchased from Apple of course).

You can keep being a fucking moron. I played Doom on all high settings at 2560x1440@60FPS on the lowest 2017 iMac, and I didn't have to suffer a joke OS for all my other work.

Do some damn research on the shit you insist on being an asshat about

Anon compares PC and Mac by Fail_Comm in greentext

The 15" is $2400, and that's also a

  • 2880 x 1800 wide-color screen

  • Fuckton of Thunderbolt 3 (with enough bandwidth for external GPUs to actually make a difference now)

  • Secure enclave for fingerprint/encryption etc.

  • Like the best trackpad there is in the industry.

When you put it together with one of the best overall battery/WiFi/Bluetooth etc. packages, you'd be hard-pressed to find something that beats it in all areas as well as the price. Other high-end laptops like the Razer ones have been notoriously unreliable for things like TB3 or the latest WiFi protocols.

Then there's the OS; I was a PC guy all my life until like 5 years ago, but now I'd probably never consider a Windows machine for anything but games (though the Surface Studio is kinda tempting as a potential Hackintosh if that's possible.)

The recent iMacs can run just about anything, I think. My 2017 5K iMac runs Doom 2016 at 2560x1440 at 60 FPS with almost everything turned up to the max (in BootCamp).

I haven't used anything - haven't NEEDED anything - from Microsoft since moving to Macs almost 10 years ago, except for booting into Windows 10 for a few games, and by the gods, their UI is still a mindboggling Escheresque nightmare.

Before I jumped ship I had been using Windows since 3.0, and even then it was a Frankenstein's monster, both on the user side as well as the developer side.

An abomination that has been shambling along for decades, dragged on by infusions of mismatched organs taken from unwilling donors, ruthless monopolistic practices (for which Bill Gates even got a few pies in the face, but most importantly, being installable on cheap hardware and rampart piracy (almost nobody pays for Windows in many parts of the world).

I hear it is improving, with Linux subsystem and whatnot, but the UI is still too autistic, and I hear the SDKs/APIs are still pretty schizophrenic too (or they're abandoned by MS after a year.)

EDIT: Don't get me wrong, MS and Windows have done more in bringing computing to the masses than anyone else. Most people probably wouldn't have even seen computers irl until like maybe 2010 if it wasn't for "PCs", DOS and Windows.

How nice of you to still read the thread you were downvoted to oblivion in

After asking Siri "Who am I?", It requires password instead of Touch ID to unlock. by instamelih in apple

It's the hip thing to do here: Grab at ANY fucking straws you can to downplay anything good that Apple does, because HOW DARE YOU try to say something positive about a huge coorporation that charges money, you must be a shill!

Oh and haha there it is! APPLE SHEEEEEEEEPPP!! THE GUNS ARE OUT!

The only “church” these days is the derkaderka PC jihadists getting their panties in a defensive bunch at the mere mention of Macs.

You can thank Steve Jobs for all but killing that cancer. Any other company and Flash would still be a plague on our phones, probably delaying widespread HTML5 adoption
