Had to shell out 40€ for a new headset after my cat decided to separate the previous headset from its chord.
Then 30€ for food to my sister's dog. 15 kg of processed chicken-rice dry food mixture.
And to top it all off, 30 minutes of waiting for the bus and my fingers almost committing suicide from the weight of the dogfood.

We were allowed to leave school a bit earlier today (we were supposed to be there until 4, where usually its only 3:30) so i drive home, nobody is there. I wait and ring the bell quite alot, i dont have my cell phone, nor do i have a key for the house, and my brother arrives. We look around some more, and determine nobody is there. So i bike to my uncle because he lives close to us and probably has a house key., but he isnt home. So i go to my grandparents that are supposed to be at my house, they are a bit further away tough. I arrive there, nobody there. I go back to my house and while biking there, i cross the car of my granddad, he arrived there while i was gone, because my parents called to say that we would be later so they didnt come to our house yet. Luckily my bike fits in my granddads car, so i didnt have to drive all the way home.

Jimmy Kimmel sent someone out to the streets of LA with an iPhone 4S. Kimmel told people they were playing with an iPhone 5. When they are told it's the new iPhone, they start conjuring up all sorts of reasons why it crushes the iPhone 4S. Again, it is an iPhone 4S.

Exact same telemarketer has called the house three times in the last three hours. STOP CALLING ME!

Hence my general disdain for Apple products.

My opinion of Jimmy Kimmel went up +100 for that. Which is to say, it's sitting at about -30.

There's a weird psychological trick going on here;
If they don't notice a difference between two things that are supposed to be different they'll latch on to anything that to them seems different because they don't want to admit that they can't tell the difference when apparently other people can tell the difference.

This will work with iPhones and anything that is virtualy identical.

Now the reason most of what they say is positive is that when we humans have no real opinions of something we tend to describe it positively when asked by a stranger.
As to why that is I'm not sure but it's fairly common.

Optimism mayby?

That explains the Windows Mojave thing and Microsoft's new ad campaign where they trick random people off the street into using Bing.

You should tell Ohio to go to hell, but its already there.

Today, I learned that portable iOS is an obstructionist piece of shit. My personal dislike of apple software, grows. At the very least the ipads. Fucking hell, I have to plug the damn thing into my computer (and install itunes, which promptly decides to infuriate me and install four other pieces of crap bloatware without asking about it) just to delete things off of it. E: Never fucking mind! Even that doesn't work! Alright. Fuck it. Everything goes.

This thing makes me want to strangle software designers. Or whoever forced them to code this festering pile of excrement. Either/or. So, future techies? Look to apple. See how they make their portable OS. Don't fucking do that. You'll be golden.

Seriously hope the ipad for laptop swap goes through. I'm right about fed up with this thing.
