The resurrection of a 3 year old thread.

…this is just like when I’ve commented on some Jeep forum some half-dozen years later.

(Which I do rather often, as I’m always searching through ’em for something I need to know.)

Me too! – LOL.

The Mac Killed My Inner Child

It’s based vaguely on a successful ad campaign of the 90s by Apple about the Mac “Bringing out your inner child”.

Strangely, you can’t find anything about that campaign anywhere. The only readily accessible remaining reference to it is something that makes fun of the Mac.

Nowadays Microsoft Office runs essentially identically on both Macs and PCs, and the files freely transfer from one system to the other.

The Mac filing system remains much easier to use than the Windows system, at least through Windows 7. I haven’t upgraded my PC to Windows 8, yet. Windows still uses the old Xtree method that was developed for DOS and that Microsoft stole some 20 years ago.

Windows remains the king for anyone who uses engineering or financial software, most of which will not run on Mac OS. There is a large amount of software that runs on Unix, and Macs operate natively in Unix and will run these programs, but much of Unix software is very expensive.

On tests for speed, Macs generally test out as the same as upper end PCs. Apple doesn’t compete in the PC commodity market.

On a day-to-day basis, if you just do word processing, email, web surfing and spreadsheets, there is no material difference between Macs and PCs. The differences that do exist are largely cosmetic.

The Mac/PC controversies seem to be driven by the same brain differences that drive politics and are essentially just different psychoses.

I’ve not used Macs; I’ve been a Microsoft guy for a generation. But Microsoft has a huge surprise for loyal Windows users. Windows 8 introduces the Metro theme, a completely different user interface from the one used since Windows 95. You can revert to a Windows 7 style interface but it is like having two operating systems competing for your attention.

Microsoft has jumped back into the hardware market with the release of the Surface tablet. It features Windows 8. This link gives you glimpses of the Metro interface. It should give Apple pause.

My friend has a Mac and she loves it. Every now and then, however, she has to come down to the city from her mountain home and visit the Mac shop. Why? The letters on her keyboard keep disappearing – they just fade away to nothing.

The first time this happened I asked her if they had to order a new key for her.
“No”, she said, “they keep a big box of them behind the counter”!!!

this same effect is why the left fall for the glamour of heroin, cocain, marijuana, and other drugs that ruin their lives, and so on.

this part of the population responds to mass control. which is why the idea of so many of these states was to reward those, and impinge the others. to breed more that can be controlled over more that are independent.

you can literally sell these people misery on a stick and they will all behave as if its wonderful, and no one will actually say the king has no clothes on for fear that others will out them socialy from the collective.

in this way, we have been able to make eugenics palatable by calling it planned parenthood.

we have made self extermination a social good

we have made sex more important than brains (and wondered why our young feminist women are more like babylonian whores than the competent oppressed women of the past).

all this is done through messages, symbolism and fomenting different values. which is whyt he old culture has to go, its values are there to make everyone better, while the elite want everyone worse than them. after all, if you vacatio nwhere they do,they arent speciakl any more are they. if you can do what they do, then they arent special any more.

so take some time to look at all the symbolism we have now.

here is the symbol for the organization of cooperation between soviet and communist china.

here is the obama logo
bizbox.slate.com/blog/ObamaLogo.jpg

and you can see that pepsi is echoing it.

take a look at a swastika…
then take a look at the sign on this russian march.

notice the symbol… they basically mated half a swastica with half a mirror image of one.

and they hold up the communist fist, and the hand.
but i guess most forget that i put up a picture of both hitler AND stalin using the same symbol before the war.

here is the trilateral commissions logo. they are the strong arm of the council foreign relations.

note that its a triskeleon, a three legged version of a swastika. except its points are playing with negative and positive space. the triskeleon is in negative space and is three hammers of thor rolling the same anti clockwise way as the german one. (the sun symbol its copied from is all over asia, but it turns the other way).

go into the history… if you look the symbol for the CFR is the same as napoleon on his horse in a famous painting, except its runing the other way.

the council was created by the same people that created the ford foundation. it was draw up and made real at the paris peace conference of 1919…

in the US its CFR…
in ENGLAND its RIIA…

“At the end of the war of 1914 [World War 1], it became clear that the organization of this system [the Round Table] had to be greatly extended … This front organization, called the Royal Institute of International Affairs, had as its nucleus in each area the existing submerged Round Table Group. In New York it was known as the Council on Foreign Relations, and was a front for J. P. Morgan and Company.” -Dr. Carroll Quigley, “Tragedy and Hope”

hope, change… thats all symbols too..

“Later the plan was changed to create an ostensible autonomy because, ‘it seemed unwise to set up a single institute with branches.’ It had to be made to appear that the C.F.R. in America, and the R.I.I.A. in Britain, were really independent bodies, lest the American public become aware the C.F.R. was in fact a subsidiary of the Round Table Group and react in patriotic fury. This is the group which designed the United Nations – the first major successful step on the road to a World Superstate. At least forty-seven C.F.R. members were among the American delegates to the founding of the United Nations in San Francisco in 1945 …Today the C.F.R. remains active in working toward its final goal of a government over all the world – a government which the Insiders and their allies will control. The goal of the C.F.R. is simply to abolish the United States with its Constitutional guarantees of liberty. And they don’t even try to hide it. Study No. 7, published by the C.F.R. on November 25, 1959, openly advocates building a new international order [which] must be responsive to world aspirations for peace, [and] for social and economic change … an international order [code word for world government] … including states labeling themselves as ‘Socialist’ [Communist].” -Gary Allen, “None Dare Call it Conspiracy”

take some time to see who are members of these groups and how they are linked.

here is barack obamas member page at the CFR
http://www.cfr.org/bios/11603/

note that my links are to the CFR…

Admiral Chester Ward, was a US Judge Advocate General of the Navy and CFR member for sixteen years. He said the purpose of the CFR was “promoting disarmament and the submergence of US sovereignty and national independence into an all-powerful one-world government.” In his book, “Kissinger on the Couch,” Ward wrote, “(the) … lust to surrender the sovereignty and independence of the United States is pervasive throughout most of the membership, and particularly in the leadership of several divergent cliques that make up what is actually a polycentric organization.”

“The most powerful clique in these (CFR) groups has one objective in common: they want to bring about the surrender of the sovereignty and the national independence of the U.S. They want to end national boundaries and racial and ethnic loyalties supposedly to increase business and ensure world peace. What they strive for would inevitably lead to dictatorship and loss of freedoms by the people.” -Harpers, July l958

The current macs now have a learning curve. I have sat down at them and could not just hit the ground running.

Of course, it is because they’ve added more features… but they’re no easier to learn than windows now… and they cost more…

“For us é¼ber-geeks, though, an Intel Mac really is the best of all worlds: multi-bootable into Mac OS X, Windows, Linux, FreeBSD… ”

On a non Mac!
Heh, I hear some of the atom netbooks (like the inexpensive acer one) can use a modified Mac OS to become Macs.
