I hate my computer, I really really do. Do you have electronics that break on you all the time?

[Fightgarr]

No, just one that smelled like weird ocean water.

That's not terrible I guess. Everyone has to have at least one day where their foot smells like something. As my philosophy goes: You walk everywhere, you're bound to step in something.
I'm just recalling now, that same day I lost my headphones to Sapsol, I also got mad chemical burns from getting Ferric Chloride splatter on my bare arm.

Why worry about electronics, when there are more peaceful things in the world

Like reading

and walking

taking in the air


BWAWAHAHAHAHA

Just messing, my laptop broke and i lost my new animation project. So i was pissed off about that, but i got a new, better one.

My good computer died last week, if I turn it on it takes five minutes to load; and loads a blue screen. I have another nice (Dell, I hate Macs) computer, but it needs an attachment to run it's video card that I either lost or never had in the first place.

I had a Dell that was a total piece of garbage. After six months, the thing would crash, freeze, or glitch up every time I used it. I have a Mac now, and it's still running well after four years. Reading this, I thought I'd point out that typically, the only people who say "I hate Macs" are the people who don't own one.

My old computer build used to crash consistently, it's now a smoldered shell at some trash heap, it felt soooooooooo good!

 

[munx13]

My old PC. It was an AMD Duron, kept on overheating (melted the plastic on the cooler 0_o), constant freezes and blue screens of death. But that was years ago, today all my electronics work perfectly.

Wearing my 5th pair of headphones this year cheap thing keep breaking not like I have a big head or somethin...

 

[Zersy]

My best headphones have snapped. Twice. The first time, they could be held together with duct tape.
The poor soldering job in my mp3 player make it mute in one ear.
The glass on my cell phone decided to fall out.
The vast majority of my video game library has been stolen.
My computer wouldn't let me connect to Steam, any mmorpgs, and the likes. This also includes the school research database and online class registration. (very painful when you are separated from your current-gen console)
My computer's hard drive broke to the point of me having to rewrite it.
I busted two light bulbs by flipping the switches when I was in a particularly bad mood.
My computer is again not letting me use anything but a browser and AIM because of the automatic security updates, and keeps installing it when I shut the computer down to uninstall the damn thing!

And this has all been in the past three weeks or so. Anything related to electronics hate me, do they hate you?

(I coulda sworn there was a thread for this, but multiple different keywords brought up nothing)

1.Get some new Headphones
2.Get a new MP3 Player
3.Fixing the glass of your cell phone is possible but your better off getting a cheap phone
4.That just sucks
5.Get a new computer and Change your ISP
6.Again get a new Computer
7.Thats Called Karma
8.FOR GODS SAKE GET A NEW COMPUTER !

haha i know the feeling, the only durable ones are the ones that came with me psp, which are limited to a really low volume!

 

[godevit]

One of my fans stopped working today but I've fixed it.
So you are not alone we all have stuff that breaks down by some divine power we cant have a grasp of.

 

[SamuelT]

I have the first three books, which I plan on reading once I finish the second Sword of Truth book.

Meh, don't bother. Sword of Truth's quality goes downhill after the third book.

 

[internutt]

My headphones keep breaking as well. I feel your pain there.

 

[Lt. Sera]

I go through headphones as normal people go through toilet paper. Also, mp3 players usually don't last long with me.

 

[Pimppeter2]

The headphone that come with the ipod, I swear they build it so after a numbe of weeks 1 side dosnt work

 

[thedelightfulme]

My laptop crashes at least once a night, every night. It also half an hour and a half turn on time.

Sounds like someone needs a defrag and a declutter.

I only really have a problem with Mp3 players. I went through one every 3 months, i went out brought a sony walkman, and have had it WORKING for the last year. Its gooood.

And computers can be terrible. Especially ready made order ones. I made mine myself.
It works fine (most of the time) occasionally i need to sort something out, but its mainly to do with software.

My internet died not long ago, the wired connection anyway, so i went out and spen £25 on a wireless PCI card. Next day, a new router was brought that has NO wireless enabled on it. ¬¬

Sods law.

Get your Ritual Screw Driver and offer one of your broken-down gadgets to the Obsolete Technology Gods. And when you get new ones, be sure to treat them well.

 

[mrpenguinismyhomeboy]

My computer is generally awesome. Except when it was a ***** about iPod drivers. But other then that it was mostly awesome.

 

[AkJay]

my Zune. peice of crap always has something wrong with it.

 

[kazork]

I have a thing for hard drives. In my last 4 computers my hard drive broke. I do not know what it is.

 

[Zombie Badger]

My current graphics card hates S.T.A.L.K.E.R, and spazzes out if try to play it on anything other than the worst lighting setting.
