@ previous posts
what was this thread about again? (rhetorical)

 

[calc84maniac]

Obviously since sin and tan are words, so is cos.

Hey guys I don't know if you've heard but there's this totally cool device coming out from some pretty fine chaps on these here boards, OpenPandora I think it's called. It's got a keyboard and touchscreen and gaming controls(dual nubs!) and wifi and all kinds of goodies. Let's discuss how cool it is!

Under overwhelming proof to everything I could find and new, I accept failure in my research on this matter, and say sorry to all those who corrected me and I opposed (vehemently) I suppose I pontificated, but I thought I was correct (as a pontificator does).

I apologize, without reservation. I truly thought I had done my home work on "spelt".

However, I will still reserve that I am correct on "cos" and on the one attacking me being a full prick.

using big words doesn't make you intelligent, but it can easily make you a douche!

spelt 1
chiefly Brit. past and past participle of spell 1 .
Psh, this here forumz a 'merican one, we don't use none pansy british stuff!

Everyone's got time to be a dick on the internet. Everyone's got the power. Everyone has the lack of consequence.
But not everyone has the creativity to create lulz at the same time, which is what really makes being a dick worth it.
Who decides which dick-headedness is lulzy? WHY YOU DO OF COURSE, might as well tell people about it?
Smug Condescension: its good for the soul. Whats the point of a forum without the dicks, the douche-bags, the internet tough guys, the fucktards, the bandwagon hoppers... well, maybe productivity, but until everyone actually has a pandora to be productive about, you might as well just have fun, generate lulz, nitpick, grammar nazi-fy, argue, Argue, nitpick, ARGUE, and argue.

I don't see why people make a big deal with spelling. As long as you know what the word is saying is what really matters.

... Did I miss something? I thought we only "Grammar-nazied" people that were idiots, not long standing forum members.

Are you talking about backasswards? he's not a long standing forum member, he's just kind of an annoying self righteous nerd

edit: seriously does anyone like that guy

As far as I'm concerned, he's been here a lot longer than I and I have no right...

P.S. - I love your Sig... Now THAT is a forum member that I have no qualms about maiming his integrity.

oh man, for like 2 days there, aesir was causing a total shit-storm. he posted like assloads of comments that were either a) poorly informed Bee) didn't help at all c) asked a really fucktarded question
but he somehow managed to maintain a totally innocent attitude when people called him out sorta, so no one ever had the heart to completely shit on him, though he probably deserved it as a whole.
Edit: auto-smiley raep'd

 

[MrBlais]

It's not like I dislike the guy, it's just he needs to do some research before posting questions; that is all. It's like he's not even trying...

 

[nightwheel]

No, this is what it should be:

I was, literally, just about to edit my comment and say that.

Any luck so far?

 

[danielliu88888]

there's not much to translate. but it sounds funny.

 

[gruso]

You should run the translated text through some text-to-speech software and post the results.

Somehow I just heard a GlaDOS-like voice saying in my head "...pandora will release the neurotoxin" due to a translation error

There must be something wrong with me

 

[Game_over]

No....I've heard it too.

I was reading while at work and wanted to restrained myself from jumping in. It's kind of heard to take the general discussion part of any forum seriously....even if it is the one with the most news.

But more on topic:

Awesome sweep of news these past recent weeks eh?
*In short, Micheal has shielded the LCD ribbon, and that test prototype is ready for final testing.
*The boards been having a pretty decent head start in production.
*The case samples are on the way.
*The CE actual test could be starting sooner than I thought

This could mean that allot of things could get done within about two weeks of each other, so the next biggest thing might just be assembly.
