  • "My head hurts when I hit it with a hammer, how do I make it stop hurting? I refuse to stop hitting myself with a hammer."

    Best analogy ever. After that one AVG vs uTorrent thread, I couldn't agree more.

    I really think software complacency is a dangerous thing. Just because it's familiar doesn't mean you should stick to it - and if you completely ignore everything else then you can be left blindsided if you're unexpectedly forced to change.

    indeed.
    Of course with an icon like that you'd say "I'd better trust Microsoft with my data then anyone else" because of the being an old person equates to being computer illiterate stereotype.

    Since I joined this forum I've been involved in hundreds of threads where these special little snowflakes have a muddy understanding of how reality works, and are utterly convinced that they can just wave a magic wand and make situations work the way they are expecting. This has ranged from the technical, legal, political, financial, societal, and PR situations.

    I hate ordering stuff online if I can go buy it somewhere close to me, and everywhere anymore will give you a discount only if you order it online, bs. Should be a discount if I go pick it up, not order online.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I love it for most things most stores you just shows the receipt online and they scan it

    Makes it easy for incompetent restaurant staff that don't know how to hear an order
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Mostly for big purchases, I want it in my hands before I pay. Like a tv, I trust picking it up myself, before I'd trust it being sent thru mail/delivery. (Broken screen, etc) But yea if I can order online, then pickup at store is ok, but not all places offer that.

    Thing is, if you break it driving back to your house, it's your fault. But if the delivery driver damages it, it's not your fault.

    Most people that haul big tvs have empty trucks or know enough not to set it face down
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Then I gotta send it back and wait another week or two. I have a pickup truck, with a extended cab, so no prob for me.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Most manufacturers pack it well enough where they aren't that dumb to let it happen

    They building a new Microcenter store near by me, is kinda scary. That's my favorite place, I'm like a kid in a candy store there.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
