The Rage Topic

^true rage material. You know how I get back at those that trifle with me by doing such acts?

I put their tip in an upside down cup of hot coffee. And it’s only a penny, mind you.

"Hi Martin (which is not my name),

Here are some hires screencaptures of our 3D software solution for you to use in your marketing material.

Kr,
R&D"

The screenshots are: Win2K UI, a Mac VMWare toolbar on top of the screen, no anti-aliasing on the actual 3D models (causing super messy edges, since they simulate corrugated cardboard) and on top of that all, saved as MS Paints default JPG settings.

Are you sure it wasn’t a spambot?

I have tons of shit to deal with but I really can’t whine about it because not only is it not really that severe compared most peoples problems, it’s all my fault.

That’s the best kind of thing to whine and complain about! (well, for me at least :wink: )

It’s from the product manager of a software solution within this company, so yes :frowning:

Totally been there. A lot of my life’s problems are self-caused. Some of them aren’t, but a lot of them are.

that’s a terrible attitude, believe me

your problems matter to you because they affect you, if anything is your fault, either fix it or learn from it, and move on

easier said than done, i know

Well, after messing around with a few broken LCD monitors, I figured out that the easiest, cheapest and least risky way to fix them is to buy an LED strip and throw out the damn fluorescent tubes and inverter board.

What they said. On the plus side things could be worse.

Hope things sort themselves out for ya. If short of fixing those problems yourself.

Trust me, it’ll give you less headaches in the long run if you try fixing them now.

“Steam needs to convert your game data to a newer, more efficient format. This will require an internet connection and a few minutes time.”

Damn it, Steam. I’m on my home internet, under an absurd bandwidth cap, that has been fucking my alotted bandwidth over during the time when it’s supposed to be unlimited. I just want to test the fucking levels I’m compiling. Too much to ask?

For fuck’s sake. I’ll have to reboot Steam in offline mode to run Ep2, and boot in online mode to run the SDK tools. ARRRRGGGGGHHHHH.

My PC is out of commission for the weekend so now I have to use the PS3’s terrible browser to get some big screen internet action.

Ah the joys of the NetFront browser.

i feel like crap and probably gonna blow off a party because my dad showed up unannounced

Welp 3 days with out internet due to a fucking storm, my steam’s offline mode decided to stop working this morning… was NOT happy.

On the bright side I got it back today due to the bad connector causing the problems to be replaced (finally).

Does anyone else hate it when couples feel the need to be extremely affectionate to one another in public? I’m not talking about your normal affection, to me that’s fine, I’m talking about when it looks more like foreplay than it does normal affection. Maybe it’s just my bitterness though.

i think it isn’t a need to be affectionate in public, but the need to be affectionate despite being in public, i say let them enjoy what they have

I feel that they overdo it. When I said it looks like foreplay, I’m not exaggerating. They could do whatever they want of course, I just think that if you’re going to be that affectionate, you probably want to keep it in private. I’d never show that level of affection to my girlfriend in a public place, my love for her would be something between her and I, not something the world needs to see. Plus, it can just be plain embarrassing to have someone being so attached in public, I wouldn’t want it myself.

A little off topic: I find that couples who are being extremely affectionate to each other 24/7 probably aren’t going to last long. I think that people rush into being a boyfriend or girlfriend without being friends first, and because of that, their only real way of spending time together is the constant “I love you” “I love you too” type thing. There’s no genuine liking for each other, there’s no normal interaction like talking, it’s all just “I love you”, and because of that, you find their relationship to be fairly shallow.

I hate seeing COUPLES in public because that means I can’t get the woman in the couple, or even flirt with her.

Yes, I am a sad sack of shit.

I remember when my ex and I broke up. I spent a couple of days alone watching tv and generally doing nothing. One night there was a documentary about zebras, and at one point they were showing a couple of zebras mating. At that moment I thought in my head “Pfff, it won’t last.”

I was jealous of zebras.

Then I realized I had reached the lowest point in my life.
