I don't think that's it. There are other more conspicuous ways to show off you've got an iPad that don't look so dumb. The large LCD is nice to look through (though photos have historically kind of sucked). May look a bit stupid but who cares? Haters gonna hate.

there should be no reason that you should have an ipad with you at all at a rave or many other of those situations...they all brought them for the purpose of taking pictures. An example that works with what you're saying is say sitting on the bus while using it and a fight breaks out..boom there you go camera in hand

Say I'm lying on the couch watching a TV show. Something pops up that I want to look up on wiki or whatever - Bam! I grab my iPad and within seconds it's loaded up wikipedia with the page I was looking for. Also my laptop gets extremely hot and is somewhat annoying to have sitting on my lap. There are just a wide variety of places at home where I think an iPad fits "better" than an ordinary laptop. And then there's the 10 hours of battery time.

Yes, I realize it's a luxury item.

[–]SheldonFreeman 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I don't think laptops render iPads obsolete, but owning both an iPhone and a Macbook do. If you read a lot, watch a lot of movies, like to draw, or have some other specific hobby that the large screen is good for, I can see how it's useful.

[–]rarisgod 7 points8 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I hate keeping my laptop on my lap while watching TV or lounging around in general. It gets hot, it's tedious to move around (yeah I'm lazy whatever), and requires a power source rather quickly (in fact, my laptop battery is shot, so I can't go without a power source). With an iPad, it's very compact and easy to maneuver. No mouse or touchpad to screw around with. If you're going to talk about a keyboard, if you're going to do heavy typing, why are you doing it on your couch? Otherwise, the virtual keyboard works great. The iPad is easy to pick up, look something up, and put down. And the battery lasts extremely long.

[–]phqu88 6 points7 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

You can justify it the way you like but personally if I'm watching a show and I randomly think of something to look up I can just take it off the coffee table and use it. It's a flat device so it's easy to hold. It's simplistic so it does all I need it to do...browse and reddit. I don't have to troubleshoot anything or worry about startup processes. My laptop takes a good minute to start and it's a hassle to get it out of my bag. First world problems maybe...but it's still more convenient IMO.

[–]Enginerdiest 5 points6 points ago

It's a great device for laying around the house cruising through stuff. Way more comfortable to do that on an iPad than on a laptop.

i have something like that called a macbook air

[–]Enginerdiest 10 points11 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Keyboards are a matter of taste. Virtual keyboards are fine for the sort of short stuff you'd type on them (I dont think anyone is advocating writing a thesis with one).

Flash is meh. Bloated resource hog in my opinion. I don't really miss it, even on my desktop.

[–]rarisgod 9 points10 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Thank you. Everyone totes keyboard and Flash as a reason to buy a laptop. Not to mention, iPad + Bluetooth Keyboard is still cheaper than a MacBook, and you can do just as much. I'm in Computer Science, and I was able to use my laptop for school. The only thing I couldn't do was compile programs. But that's something you really shouldn't be using a tablet for anyway.

And as for Flash, agreed. Any site I visit that still has Flash videos exclusively is a pretty junky site, in my experience. Maybe it's just me, but I don't run across them that often anymore. As a web developer, Flash can die ANY time. I hate websites designed with Flash.

There are other perks to using your iPad to snap a quick photo. It's a bit easier to do some quick editing and sharing when you're on such a big device. I don't think it looks as weird as others but it may be inappropriate in some situations.

To be fair at football you could use the Ipad as a central coaching tool. It looks stupid but it could really really effective.

yes, it is a thing to use a device's builtin camera to take pictures, when it happens to be the best one you have at the moment you feel like taking a picture.

instead you should not take the picture, and curse yourself that you forgot to buy and/or bring with you a camera with the appropriate form and cool factor.

People should charge their phone to 100% before submitting a screenshot. Would avoid the whole "you're running out if battery" thing.

But you see full battery or full reception, and people start calling it a fake.

why would someone go through the trouble of making a fake phone background around a picture? could see why they would do it for texts though

I think all people look like idiots taking pictures in their bathroom in front of the mirror holding their camera.

[–]TrololoTrol 6 points7 points ago

I prefer to think they are either:

  • ignorant about technology, specially one called the self-timer.

  • "LOOK HOW I'M SUPERIOR BECAUSE I HAVE AN IPHONE WHILE I DO THE DUCKFACE!!!!111"

  • they actually think they bathroom would be a nice backdrop, and the posing with your arm in a weird position holding your phone gives it the final touch of elegance

  • Self timers are nice when you have a tri-pod

  • nothing for this

  • Lots of the people who take these pictures have no other mirror in their house.

You don't need a bloody mirror - just extend your hand. And if you really need to get your whole body in the shot, you can just ask a friend or family member. Of course, they may get impatient on take 1001 of the same duckface.

I'm not convinced anyone actually thinks like that... It's just people having a bit of fun, or trying to look good or whatever.

not at all- it implies that there is absolutely no one on earth who wants a picture with you in it besides yourself. web 2.0!

I find it funny how no one realizes that if you just point the fucking camera at yourself, you can use the mirror to see the viewfinder and make sure that you are in the frame properly. If you're going to take pictures of yourself in the bathroom, try not to be a dumbass!

But then you can only get a portion of your body in frame unless you have really long arms. For me holding my phone out I can only get from my chest up in the frame. If I wanted a full body shot, or at least from the waist up I couldn't do that without using a mirror.

[–]Marcob10 1 point2 points ago

That's why there's a timer on all cameras and if your phone doesn't have one, there's an app for that. And if your phone doesn't have apps, its camera probably sucks anyway.

[–]red_05 1 point2 points ago

Wow, I thought I was the only person to know this. I don't get mirror pics at all but at least turn the camera around.

I dabble in online dating when I'm bored. There's no shortage of girls taking self-photos in mirrors or with their computer webcams. Whatever happened to going out and letting someone else take pictures of you actually doing something?

[–]Tfish 1 point2 points ago

Like doing what?

They whole purpose is just so you can see what they look like. I don't know why it would be necessary to see what they look like when they're riding a bike.

The sad part is that they're using their iPads as cameras so that you know they have an iPad..

[–]stewart21 13 points14 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Right, because it couldn't be possible that the iPad might be someone's only, or best, camera...

And as the saying goes, 'The best camera is the one you have with you'.

People will get use to seeing tablet photos, just as we got use to seeing people take photos with their phones and iPods.

Brit here.

Y'all, as in "you all" makes no sense in that context, does it? It's not just me?

He means "all y'all"... Right?

[–]Cacafuego 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Great question. Since "y'all" by itself is a direct substitute for pluralized "you," his sentence can be rewritten like this:

This is how you idiots look...

"All y'all" is a compound formation that emphasizes that an entire group is being addressed, rather than a subset. Rather than meaning "all you idiots," it would more properly mean "the entire group of you idiots."

I agree that iPads are not ideal photo taking devices. It looks stupid to see people at concerts and shit taking pictures with this huge rectangle.

But that aside, why the hell are people still taking pictures in the mirror like idiots? Obviously the original post is done for humour, but I'm talking about people in general. These devices have front-facing cameras you idiots, what the hell are you doing in the bathroom?

"brb I have to go to the bathroom." 'dude I don't need to know that you're going to take a shit' "no I'm taking a picture for my Facebook"

[–]KittenPurrs 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Thank you. I've taken a handful of pictures of myself using the iPad. But I reverse the camera so I can view the framing on the screen. Apart from the low quality of the pic, no one knows what device I'm using. And my background then gets to be something more pleasant than my bathroom.

[–]Burninmules 1 point2 points ago

Anytime someone takes a picture of themselves in the mirror, no matter what device they are using, I immediately feel sad for them. They must not have any friends or family they can ask to snap a picture for them. Sad, lonely people are what I see.
