Are you kdidding? Computers would never harm you! They will never try to break you heart and kill you either...

That is until the internet becomes self-aware and decides that humanity is a scourge on the planet and must be eliminated to preserve the planet.

Apparently, computers cannot be used for farming or hunting, and are therefore impure and are the work of Sataaaaaan. Because God wants you to mount stuffed deer heads on your wall.

OT: Because of Dwarf Fortress, I no longer have friends.

If the internet becomes self-aware it will commit suicide out of sheer horror at what it is.

...I think that i have to make millions of *Obsidian mugs*, to barter them to the local traders for a barrel of ale, from which I drink directly from.

Did you know that if you write 3.14 on a piece of paper and hold it in a mirror, it will say pie? And if you divide 42 by 3.14... you get 13.37!

It is incredibly satisfying to kill a man with a butterfly.

Yes, but is this before or after it has killed all of humanity cause humanity caused it to be that horrible.

...I just downloaded my folder to my flash drive and will proceed to play it at school.

I've done that actually ^_^
I tried to do that with 40d. Either during worldgen or when starting DF, the computer resets for no apparent reason. Maybe it overheats :P.

I want your teachers. Mine would freak out if they saw me toying around on one of the school laptops.

I tried that once, it got me banned from the school computers for a month!

Or, ya know, play from flashdrive. you just have to stop a bit earlier to compensate for the slower save speed.

My laptop broke so I ended up carting it to a flash drive till I got my laptop fixed. Made it so easy to leach processing power off the school computers.

I doubt you got much, though. school computers are not known for their processing power, unless you're in the 3D class or the CAD class.

I now have to explain to people why a game with ASCII graphics can have such demanding system specs.

I was just thinking about that.

Not going to happen. Too many kids want to shove viruses on the CAD computers for them to allow any flash drives.

GODDAMN H4CK3R5!

Ahh, the most frustrating thing about DF... And modern society.
