Dook, Winblows is fucking shit! Have fun with your BSODs!

 :trollface:

What BSODs? :orly:

In fact most of my BSOD issues came from overheating hardware or dodgy graphics card driver. I upgraded the BIOS, graphics card and "disabled" turbo-boost by setting the maximum CPU usage to 99% in power settings and no BSODs ever since.

I was kidding, only wanted to annoy Dook. I rarely had BSODs myself. :zoinks:

People died. Does it matter that one person did something different than the other ?

what are people going to say when YOU die, Pentagram ? Did you change the world ?

Dook, do you honestly care about him? Or are you going to parade him like he's some god?

People always fall through the cracks and you can't do much about it. Plenty of people who arguably contributed massively to society have died and no one gave a fuck. It isn't someone hiding the truth over the sheeple because it's already fucking there (easily accessible anywhere), it's just that people themselves cherry pick who's the messiah and who isn't.

In other words, charisma seems to be the winning factor. No one gives a fuck about Woz while Jobs got all the respect, for example. Get over it, life is not fair and never will be.

I'm not worshiping anyone. I'm saying that people should be acknowledged for what they did. I advocate strongly against worshiping anyone.

I don't really care about either person, but I have some knowledge of what they did. It's just difficult to accept that the charismatic marketing goon gets all the glory.

I'm not sure misanthropist is even a word.  I'm used to misanthrope.  :dunno:

Nope. I just had a neat little picture I didn't made. I was hoping to be praised, because I'm only a child after all.

Isn't that right, odeon? :wanker:

Indeed , you are a child.
You know what's funny? , you're actually a year older than me yet you have the immaturity of someone SO much younger than me.

Doesn't this tell you that if you didn't behave like a child people wouldn't treat you like one? , your chronological age has little to do with this.
I'll just diagnose myself as Goddess of the Universe and have done with it. Hell with autism!  :green: :zoinks:

nice is just something written on biscuits.

Steve Jobs knew how to market himself and his company to make it one of the greatest successes that almost dominates certain key markets. So I'd say his popularity is more because he knew how to sell, rather than the quality of the products. It doesn't work to say quality is the factor for gauged success and popularity. You can have a superior product range, but if you're shit at selling it through marketing, no-one will remember or care about you and your products.

That's just how it is. :dunno:
Existence actually has two broad meanings despite its apparent meaningless. The constant reconciliation of all its parts, and the conservation of any closed system as a whole.

Morality can be extrapolated from these meanings to make these two commandments of godless morality: 1). Be in harmony with one another and 2). Care for the environment.
