Next completely OT topic:

Let's see... We've had the discussion about the Raspberry Pi, and how it doesn't have enough pins... We talked about the i386and how no modern UNIX supports it anymore and clearly this is a vast conspiracy by Microsoft... We've had the discussion about how awful / lazy / stupid modern developers and the kids on my lawn are... And the discussion about how great / awful functional programming is (oh, and Object Orientedprogramming). Outcome: C is the best, as usual... Oh, and the discussion about how teachers are useless... And a new one: discussion about eBooks vs. real paper books. Exciting and new! We also talked about how modern "PeeCee" (see, if you spell it funny that emphasizes your point) hardware is all terrible and falls apart if you look at it... Don't forget the discussion about "tablets" and how they will never catch on... We've done the discussion about USPS and how anything you send via it will be destroyed by monkeys in costumes or get lost... We've come full circle around to X and how useful it is/ how people don't need it... I *think* that based on prior history (and correct me if I'm wrong) that the next subject should be about how USB is not, infact, a "bus" and is stupid and awful and can't be interfaced to a ZX Spectrum and therefore is a failure oh God make it stop make it stop make it stop. - Josh
