I am Now a Hipster

Posted by DesertFox on Aug. 5, 2011, 8:36 p.m.

So my laptop got here today! I guess I'm a Macbook-toting hipster now. I gotta find a nearby coffee shop to haunt ;_;

anyhow, images!

Fresh out of its wrapping!

And setting up!

And logged in!

Setting it up took like… 5 minutes. Much shorter than the bullshit I had to wade through to get my last laptop running. And it runs wicked fast - many times faster than my friend's macbook that I'd been using. I am most pleased with this laptop.

So here's what I'm putting on it tonight (or already have):

*Adium (Multi-IM client)

*Fugu (SFTP)

*Wine (So I can use windows stuff)

*MacFUSE/NTFS-3g (So I can write to NTFS partitions)

*Firefox 5

*Transmission (Bittorrent client)

*TextWrangler (OSX replacement for Notepad++)

*XCode (programming for iPhone, duh)

*Python (cause I love me some python)

*Dropbox

And of course setting up Windows 7, then some Crysis, and then imma shoot some aliens.

Anyone have any suggestions for OSX software?

I cheaped out and got a standard macbook rather than a macbook pro. Mistake.
Kinda corrected that for you.

No one should ever have to blow their money on any apple product.

Also, I'm tempted to go grief your hipster house DF. >:(

@fsx - two words - iPhone developer. The money that was used to purchase this computer was earned via programming on a mac. But you go ahead with your anti-Apple feelings, because hey, that's fine, it's your opinion and thus your right.

Myself? I'll just go back to earning money. I like money, and don't mind using Apple to get it :D

DO IT ANYWAY.

Didn't you learn Java in school? Move to Android. =D

I've done android programming, but android people are harder to make money off of.

Also, Android fragmentation sucks balls.

Install a pirated copy of the mac operating system on a partition of a superior, better-value computer. Return your macbook or pawn it if you lost the recipt.

Nah, I'm good.

Those lays are pretty hipster.

That's what this is about right?…

Right?

Yeah! Lays chips are like, totally indie!

SERIOUS Apple haters are idiots. So are the Micro$oft fags.

However, MMORPGguy did have an interesting idea. Seems like it'd work and… well a bit more cost effective.

Personally the only apple "product" i'd consider investing in is a MODbook.
