There are two nerds living in this household and it means that we have to have two computers. Except we only have room for one and therefore I'm using a laptop. And I know that there are some regular readers and some friends of mine who still remember how I used to complain about the "killing trio". But to refresh your memory, this is what I wrote during last summer:
And when I'm listening to something on my laptop, I'm using my in-ear headphones I got for Christmas. It's actually quite unpractical since I'm using them with my mp3-player too and I have to switch them like daily. But is there something you won't do for a better sound quality?
Since Aleksi doesn't hear what I'm listening to, I can listen to whatever I want to. We don't exactly have the same taste what comes to music. I can tolerate pretty much Aleksi is listening to but it doesn't work vice versa. I'm into stuff that Aleksi dislikes or even hates so I can't really listen to it while he's around.
Wait! I said I was using headphones now!
It's like two thirds down: I can play music on my laptop and I have eliminated Aleksi's taste. And the last part is that I'm re-exploring my own taste. I know what I like, but now I'm also constantly trying to find new cool bands to listen to. It's like a project of mine. I have already found several good bands and the search continues. And currently listening to music is like the best thing I know. It's like falling in love over and over again. Sometimes I spend hours staring at the screen just listening to something awesome.
And this is all because I switched to Ubuntu.
I have started to listen to music on my laptop. But my laptop sucks... When I have Winamp, Live Messenger and Firefox open at the same time it slows down quite radically and eventually it's tilting like hell. I don't know if it's really worth the fight.But later on I have switched to Ubuntu and it allows me to use Rhythmbox, Pidgin, Firefox and many more at the same time without any problems. So now I can really listen to music while nerding on my laptop. Last time it was like a desperate try.

I really like all these girl+nerd+Ubuntu posts. It is quite errotic.
ReplyDeleteHaha. That explains why I'm so popular among nerdy boys. For them it's probably like I'm talking dirty 24/7.
