circ dick soleil posted:Steve Wozniak has special money printed for him in perforated 3-hole sheets so he has a binder full of money that he just tears $100 bills out of because he's gangsta as gently caress. This is true except they're $2 bills so he can get an extra layer of "what the gently caress" from whatever helpless retail person he encounters, and then he can smugly explain how this is all technically legal and very normal. Edit: here's a story about how he got to meet the secret service about this and continued to act insane: http://archive.woz.org/letters/general/78.html Skeleton Ape fucked around with this message at 19:35 on Sep 15, 2015 |

Now you probably got to chuck it and buy a new one, but 'dat educational discount.

the fact that no one gives a poo poo about wozniak is proof that chris hardwick is an idiot when he says 'nerds rule the world' nerds are whipping boys used by jocks like Jobs to make them money if you like hardwick and pay for his podcasts you are the whipping boy butt slut

Skeleton Ape posted:Woz was the poo poo. When crazy rear end Steve Jobs said "I have this vague ill defined idea that's probably 5 or 10 years ahead of its time, let's go make it" Woz was all like "OK" and did everything by himself because Jobs was a dumbass who didn't know poo poo about gently caress when it came to electronics or software. He single handedly built the Apple I and did most of the Apple II on his own. That's pretty impressive! dunno but i have a question for you it is "why dont you stop posting"

the beatles are overrated as poo poo, but cmon there's a big difference between inspiration and ripoff and steve jobs ripped off the woz.

# ? Sep 16, 2015 03:10 |

music is all just ripping off something else anyway usually a riff here or there inspired by something even if directly copied is one thing but having woz do the actual work then taking it and getting paid for it and lying to woz about the money is just straight jacking someone

those beatles "rips" are pretty lovely examples too oh wow so they paid someone to co-write lyrics? john lennon had a demo in 1977 that was kinda derivative? hard hitting stuff. meanwhile, oasis just took a t rex riff, slowed it down a little, and called it a day https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_ub32XCmUs
