I don't know if someone already said this, but if it has been said, I'll reinforce it.

 

Calling the entire computer a CPU. 

Old shit no one cares about but me.

Are you referring to how they can just search in the browser? Because Opera is the same. I even think Firefox has it now. Just saying that it was weird to specify Chrome.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

I really hate when console fans say ''pc's are too expensive i don't want to spend 2k USD on a pc thats stupid'' i just want to punch them. also those who think  that their console is better than a PC, and say that oh they don't want to sit at a desk they want to chill and relax on the couch or on their big comfy chair, those are the same fanbois who play cod all day with their skweeky child voices claiming it has better graphics than what a pc can do.

 

Also, not really related to tech but when people don't understand the difference between personal preference and OBJECTIVE fact, I have a friend who's very enlightened i should say, he has the ability(ehm.. $$CHA CHING$$)  to get a really good pc when i asked him why didn't he get a pc he just said, I don't like it. i  then said.. fair enough, SEE?! SIMPLE!

 

And the other day when my other ''friend'' tried to convince me that a console is better than a pc (he even called out PC users as basement dwellers who sit in their moms basement doing nothing but playing wow all day COMPLETELY IGNORING the fact that this was the exact same stereotype that was around consoles a few years ago, and when i confronted him and said that's not true and it is also a stereotype for console users too he denied it) and when I of course proved him wrong in every point he brought up he then said, '' Well i like xbox so its better) i didn't just facepalm I FACE PUNCHED MYSELF. (True story)(..ouch) and then the bastard now is looking for a gaming laptop and constantly complains about how expensive pc's are.../sigh

Say what you want about me, but if  something terrible happens to those people I would be a little happier in the inside.
