That way if my 6 year old knocks it off the table then I'm not SOL like I would be if I had bought it from the Apple store 14:09 <@opticron> i could probably shoot holes in it, too 14:09 <@Dagmar> RUin their day at Best Buy. Say "I need to see this in writing" 14:10 <@Dagmar> None of the people there have actually read anything about what they're sellin gyou 14:10 <@Dagmar> They just know their boss complains like a bitch if they don't at least try to sell it to everone 14:10 < Genphlux> Yeah I worked in PC sales at BB when I was 16. We were pressured to sell that crap constantly. 14:11 < Genphlux> But that was in '97 or so. 14:11 <@Dagmar> Oddball got the same shit from his boss when he worked at Office Depot selling computers 14:13 < Genphlux> I've used Best Buy's AD plan though and they do honor it. 14:13 < Genphlux> I had a bluetooth earpiece that was chewed up by a dog 14:13 < Genphlux> They replaced it 14:14 < Genphlux> I don't see the point on things like home PCs, but on portable electronics I think its a pretty good investment. Depending on the product obviously 14:17 <@Dagmar> It really irritates me that BB doesn't have the 1018P 14:17 <@Dagmar> I'd roll over there tomorrow morning and buy one if they did 14:18 <@Dagmar> All they have is the damn 1018PB, which lacks the fingerprint scanner 14:18 <@Dagmar> I would *very* much like to be able to fingerswipe my way into my netbook 14:19 <@oddball> Genphlux: For your average geek, I'd simply tell them "I know you're not interested, but I have to mention it..." 14:20 <@oddball> If it was a little blue hard old lady, I'd actually try to sell it because they would be lost if a hard drive died on them 2 years down the road. 14:21 <@Dagmar> I found a helmet for Warren. :) 14:21 <@Dagmar> http://nashville.craigslist.org/mcy/2068302151.html 14:21 <@Dagmar> Hippie as fuck 14:23 -!- Falun [~richard@75-37-195-222.lightspeed.lsatca.sbcglobal.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds] 14:36 < cerkit> I hate all that biometrics junk. 14:36 < cerkit> Fingerswipes, etc. 14:36 <@Dagmar> You don't need glasses tho 14:37 < cerkit> glasses? 14:37 <@Dagmar> I can't see a fucking thing for the first 10 minutes I'm up 14:37 < cerkit> oh 14:37 <@Dagmar> My eyes just don't focus on shit properly 14:37 < cerkit> I got you now. 14:37 < cerkit> Yeah, better than 20/20 over here, so no problems with that. 14:37 <@Dagmar> So, while I was using that Microsoft fingerprint reader with XP, my mornings were significantly easier 14:38 <@Dagmar> I could stumble into the study, mash the glowy red thing, and weather radar and the temps would appear on my screen in gigantic fucking numbers I could see 14:38 <@Dagmar> Seeing the keyboard was entirely out of the question. hehe 15:47 < cerkit> oh well! 15:47 < cerkit> i guess i should go home... 15:47 < cerkit> it's friday... i've been coding all week 15:48 < cerkit> and i'm pretty sure for every bug i patch, someone will find another. 15:48 < cerkit> so, it can wait. :) 15:48 < cerkit> ttyl! 16:45 -!- brimstone [~brimstone@pdpc/sponsor/digium/brimstone] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 16:47 -!- brimstone [~brimstone@the.narro.ws] has joined #se2600 16:47 -!- brimstone [~brimstone@the.narro.ws] has quit [Changing host] 16:47 -!- brimstone [~brimstone@pdpc/sponsor/digium/brimstone] has joined #se2600 16:47 -!- mode/#se2600 [+o brimstone] by ChanServ 16:48 -!- Venom_X [~pjacobs@66.54.185.131] has quit [Quit: Venom_X] 17:55 -!- peaches1984 [black@c-69-137-80-31.hsd1.tn.comcast.net] has joined #se2600 18:46 -!- shadow404 [shadow404@80.94.20.111] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 19:31 -!- m0j0-j0j0 [~jkemp@cnet520-hosoc.nandomedia.com] has quit [Quit: Comments like that are why you have no friends] 19:49 -!- Falun [~richard@75-37-195-222.lightspeed.lsatca.sbcglobal.net] has joined #se2600 19:57 -!- epoxy [~ls3@71-15-26-216.dhcp.hlrg.nc.charter.com] has joined #se2600 20:25 -!- sasquatc4 [~sasquatc4@c-174-51-24-240.hsd1.co.comcast.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds] 21:05 -!- Genphlux [~brandon@adsl-226-73-144.mem.bellsouth.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds] 21:17 -!- Genphlux [~brandon@adsl-226-73-144.mem.bellsouth.net] has joined #se2600 22:11 -!- sasquatc4 [~sasquatc4@c-174-51-24-240.hsd1.co.comcast.net] has joined #se2600 22:11 -!- mode/#se2600 [+o sasquatc4] by ChanServ 22:32 -!- Genphlux [~brandon@adsl-226-73-144.mem.bellsouth.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 265 seconds] 22:44 -!- Genphlux [~brandon@adsl-226-100-204.mem.bellsouth.net] has joined #se2600 23:16 -!- Genphlux [~brandon@adsl-226-100-204.mem.bellsouth.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 255 seconds] 23:27 -!- Genphlux [~brandon@adsl-242-190-220.mem.bellsouth.net] has joined #se2600 --- Log closed Sat Nov 20 00:00:24 2010
