Jesus shit why do you need 250 PPI on a 9" screen?
because we will have that on all displays eventually, and since the iPad is geared towards content consumption at distances very close to your face... it makes sense that the text be as easy on the eyes as humanly possible.
Point.
I'm thinking more from the angle of "Fuck, we just bought all these iPad2s because apparently Blackberries aren't 'the thing' anymore, and now I'm going to have to shit out money to buy a bunch of 3s."
no this is the technology trap
the answer is, the old devices still work!
they are still good!
I still use my original iphone as a music player
Right, until they patch it.
I still remember borrowing PotatoNinja's iPhone one time to check the bus schedule--because he has a smart phone and I do not--and then handing it back to him after five minutes because I could do it faster on my older not-smart phone.

Also yes it is my birthday.
I'm pretty proud of how subtly I dropped that information in [chat].
obama did the thing where you turn someone's hand so they don't get a good shake
and instead you hold it like you are going to give it a kiss, milady
what a jerk!
That's nothing. Was chatting with a neighbor a few weeks back, and we had a good, solid talk. Some real brotalkin' going on.
When it was time for us to part ways, I went all standard handshake, but he went all hipster handshake into complicated hand gestures on me.
Tried to autocorrect, but I somehow ended up aggressively jerking off his index finger at the end, like "play your cards right and there's more where this came from!"
I wanted to try to override all that silliness with a standard handshake, but it was too late. The moment had passed.
So yeah, probably never going to see that guy stop and chat ever again.

You should watch that, it's pretty important, i think.
Not really.
He may have missed the earlier discussion on the matter.
Anyway, whether or not it is misplaced, I kind of like it when the World unites to attack nasty murdering jerks, even if just by social media
I must've missed it. Was the general consensus that it's dumb and we shouldn't do anything?
Not at all, but telling a bunch of facebook using teenagers to essentially sign a petition to have a guy in another country arrested doesn't change the fact that it will never work, just like how other countries requesting the arrest of George Bush or Dick Cheney or Kim Jong or any other political leader, admittedly ruthless or not, that the outside world disagrees with.
I'm a bit mad at ME3 for eating my Shepard's face.
I heard a little about this. Am I going to have to redo the Sheperd face I've carried through ME1 and ME2?
Maybe. It doesn't affect everybody, and Bioware is working on a patch.
There is a way to export a face code from an ME2 save but it's a bit complicated.
SO THAT IS A THING! We loaded it last night and it said it couldn't import our face (it was close, but the jawline and hair were off so we got it pretty close to the original) and we didn't know what the fuck was going on.
Now I almost want to wait for the patch and start over (i'm only like 3 hours in) just to make it RIGHT
are YOU on the beer list?

Normally, i'd agree, but in this case, the movement actually got US military to go to Uganda. Something IS actually happening. It just needs more momentum.

Someday we need to chat about something. I have this weird idea forming in my head about the rise of the opinion column taking center stage in public discourse, specifically in regards to science blogs but it has farther reaching implications I think.
What I am getting at is usually I throw some things at you and you end up gelling them together into a decent thread OP, so remind me to talk to you about this later

I was under the impression Obama had already sent 100 troops to Uganda well before that campaign started.

Of course if they do I will probably have a heart-attack and die.
This is one of my favorite pictures.

I believe I have the perfect retort for this
*ahem*
You might watch that. Maybe. If you'd like.

VH, are you still thinking about doing those animations?
Because I am still on board.
EDIT:
I should probably add: Happy Birthday

None other.
Well done. lol
and instead you hold it like you are going to give it a kiss, milady
what a jerk!
Not really.

what a goof
THE WORST KIND OF HANDSHAKE
That's not rts in the sense of C&C just so you're aware. It is exactly Commandos. To the slimmest detail. It's also completely awesome.

Every single person has been sharing this on facebook today.

I'm just saying that watching it isn't very important.
i was too facetious. I regret posting it and editing it now.

never regret
Actually that's true, he is doing a finger shake in that photo.
heh.

so cool
i am basically a regret elemental, from the sub-plane of regret. it's tucked in near the negative energy plane.

Then again. I already knew who he was and that he was a complete bag of dicks. And that he's been on the run since '05? '06?
Isn't hte problem tho that if you imported from ME1 to ME2, the code actually won't recreate the face?
SO THAT IS A THING! We loaded it last night and it said it couldn't import our face (it was close, but the jawline and hair were off so we got it pretty close to the original) and we didn't know what the fuck was going on.

Curious as to what it will be.
Let's play Mario Kart or something...
I was under the impression Obama had already sent 100 troops to Uganda well before that campaign started.
Yeah, I just hit a rough spot recently with school and had to adjust my priorities.
This week is Spring Break, though, so maybe I'll be able to get a solid recording done.
this is you (you must have read oglaf before)
