I'm outside! Right now! XD

#1 Post by Hudzon » Sun Sep 14, 2008 11:15 am

Yay for mobile internet! I can now post online from anywhere in the country, so long as I have my mini laptop with me! How awesome is that?

I'm sitting in the street with random people walking by and yet I'm browsing the internet at the same time!

Woot for modern technology! Er, got to run, battery's running out XD

Maybe i'm old-fashioned, but i would think sitting in the street browsing the Internet is a bit dangerous.

I agree XD... I so wouldn't dare show off a laptop in public... Internet or not :). And lol at batteries ;p. Let's just wait for Wifi charging ;p (well... wireless charging is actually possible but hm...)

He needs one of those XO/One Laptop Per Child computers with the hand crank to generate power :mrgreen:

Btw, this "outside" thing you mention... I know I've heard that concept somewhere..... :wink:

I didn't think France was that much of a hotbed of crime and disorder...!

I certainly don't hesitate to take out my laptop in public. Assuming it's not raining. It was quite nice last month to be in Regent's Park in London, sitting under a tree, technically 'working' via 3g internet access...

Actually i was more concerned about the cars. Sitting in the street is a bad idea, kids!

And then there's the additional danger of browsing the Internet in public. i suspect that if there were witnesses to what most people looked up online, the prisons and courts would overflow with people charged with indecency.

Yay! Ah, yeah... you also could do that with recent cell phone, right (as long as you have your GPRS activated)?

Did you use Wifi or WiBro? Did you pay for your mobile internet (or you always utilize free hotspot). I also consider several times to do just that since lots of place that offer free hotspot (free internet) but security reason always forbid me to bring my "expensive" laptop outside.

Just be careful with your laptop too. Better have your unique signature printed at somewhere hidden parts of your laptop.

Outside? In the 3D world?

You kidding me? People fucking die out there, man. I'm afraid to open my door to get chinese food.

Anyway, I wish I could afford that.

How diligent, how did you compile all the 'die' quote? It sure a hard work ^_^
And the quotes are funny too.
All of them deny the reality (or just confirms the obvious facts).

Anywhere? Are there access points everywhere? I'd be happy if there was that many here (and if my laptop would stop getting monotonous blue screens).
