[–]Chaotropic 504 points505 points ago

Even though I comprehended the title I think I can safely say that was not what I was expecting.

[–]fapswhiledriving 111 points112 points ago

This is what happens when the machines finally become self-aware. We don't know who struck first...us or them...but we do know it was us that scorched the sky.

[–]RapeTentacles 47 points48 points ago

Didn't notice, was on reddit.

[–]Archangelus 29 points30 points ago

Reddit is how the machines save processing power for the Matrix. Millions of people sitting around on their computers instead of forcing them to render the outside world... it's perfect!

[–]Ocramzeej66 20 points21 points ago

They pay us for our complacency with pictures of cats.

[–]Archangelus 19 points20 points ago

A repost is usually a glitch in the Matrix. It happens when they change something. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_KmNZNT5xw&t=0m24s

[–]Chexonfire 2 points3 points ago

You should practise being more aware, rapetentacles

[–]eloisekelly 2 points3 points ago

None of this is helping my unfortunate fear of computer sentience.

[–]victordavion -1 points0 points ago

Don't worry, it's actually impossible at our current technology level ( I would estimate at least 100+ years before it's even dreamable ).

[–]Jesustron 0 points1 point ago

It was all our fault then, at the time they relied on the suns energy, the dark sky caused them to find an alternate energy source.

[–]obsilord 1 point2 points ago

Dark sky probably saved us from being wiped out by them after the war.

[–]Xeeman 0 points1 point ago

Sounds like the opening to an epic story.

[–]pizzasoup 0 points1 point ago

You need to go watch The Matrix, my friend. You are missing out.

[–]causmos 5 points6 points ago

BITCH, HIT ME ONE MO GAIN!

[–]JKR93 5 points6 points ago

I would have been satisfied with him just breaking the computer. Can say it blew my mind.

[–]Cuplink 1 point2 points ago

Ill be back later

[–]troywonderboybarnes 2 points3 points ago

I read it as surprising. When I saw it I thought 'yeah that's pretty surprsing.' Then looked back at the title, 'ohh, that makes more sense.'

[–]Lottia 2 points3 points ago

I was like 'No way, thats totally staged.. OH MY GOD ITS ALIVE.' Did not see that coming.

[–]redrhyski 2 points3 points ago

I was trying to think "have I seen this before" - and looks like I hadn't.

In Before: Boy that escalated quickly.

[–]BronzeLeague 1 point2 points ago

I dont know if he meant uprising or surprising, but either way its completely appropriate.

[–]slothenstein[S] 0 points1 point ago

Uprising. Monitors will have their day.

[–]tremens 0 points1 point ago

To be fair, she's got some serious eyebrows on her.

"Eyebrows."

[–]cam3r0nrock -1 points0 points ago

Eyebrow FTFY

[–]theothernewguy 0 points1 point ago

Okay, but the snaggletooth comment was a bit uncalled-for

[–]Anonymous3891 4 points5 points ago

Your image is broken, but my thoughts exactly.

[–]Greywyne 2 points3 points ago

I would have been sorely disappointed if nobody else thought this. Celebrations!

[–]Anaract 3 points4 points ago

Canti wouldn't do that!

[–]f_myeah 117 points118 points ago

Definitely fake

[–]NoDayzOff 78 points79 points ago

You sure?

[–]GoldenFalcon 32 points33 points ago

Yeah, if you look closer, you can see the guys tie is totally pixeled, thus a fake tie.

edit: This was also recorded by ceiling cat.

[–]feureau 12 points13 points ago

I agree. That CG is really bad. The guy looks totally fake.

[–]W34PON 0 points1 point ago

The computer wasn't plugged in as well.

[–]249ba36000029bbe9749 5 points6 points ago

It's obvious. Everyone knows that by personal computers came way later than the 60's when people lived in black and white.

[–]greyscales 1 point2 points ago

Yeah, a camera wouldn't be pointed at a single worker like that.

[–]JAV0K 0 points1 point ago

We have the technology

[–]ForgottenRomeo 0 points1 point ago

Totally right? I mean who set's out their offices like that?

[–]Salvius 0 points1 point ago

Well, it was obviously from back in Ye Olde Dayes of CRT monitors, and cubicle fashions were different back then. Still, I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that this was staged.

[–]myballsgotmilk 41 points42 points ago

[–]ravenrider 1 point2 points ago

I'm sure there is a flash version, but I don't find it anymore, it was hilarious

[–]brainflakes 5 points6 points ago

It's a College Humour video, no idea which version came first

[–]ingenious_gentleman 1 point2 points ago

It all started with a poorly timed bald-joke.

[–]c53x12 1 point2 points ago

I love this. Perfectly captures the attitude of every printer everywhere.

[–]Malaranu 6 points7 points ago

OMG, its Canti from FLCL...

[–]Scarnox 1 point2 points ago

Exactly what I thought! haha

[–]DOWNVOTES_SYNDROME 68 points69 points ago

I'M NOT 100% CERTAIN, BUT THIS MAY HAVE NEVER ACTUALLY HAPPENED

[–]sotech 16 points17 points ago

Seriously, the machine uprising didn't happen during the CRT era. Everyone knows this.

[–]EffYourCouch 7 points8 points ago

Calm down.

[–]nickdude77 11 points12 points ago

Dude, not cool, he has downvotes syndrome, he doesn't know what he's doing.

[–]DOWNVOTES_SYNDROME 18 points19 points ago

i like turtles

[–]thecircusdweller 2 points3 points ago

Im up prong you both because I like your sarcastic comment, and your name. Don't feel blessed, Plato himself said upvotes are worthless.

[–]thecircusdweller 1 point2 points ago

Up prong? I'm currently trying to figure out what I meant by that. My deductive reasoning does nothing. Up prong? Seriously?

[–]pyrosmiley 1 point2 points ago

I think the answer you seek is "iPhone"

[–]betafish37 8 points9 points ago

remember kids, be nice to your computer.

[–]T3sko 4 points5 points ago

He should invest in an anti-virus.

Or a plama-rifle.

[–]McBiff 4 points5 points ago

Imagine, right now, the horror that would be a Norton plasma-rifle.

[–]shitmyspacebar 2 points3 points ago

Norton products have a tendency to kill computers, so a Norton plasma-rifle would be the ideal weapon

[–]McBiff 5 points6 points ago

A Norton plasma-rifle would mistake your loved ones as false-positives, weigh a tonne but only run on AA batteries, then remind you that your subscription is due.

[–]shitmyspacebar 2 points3 points ago

I take it back, a Norton plasma-rifle would be terrible

[–]T3sko 0 points1 point ago

You'd have to somehow boot the gun into safe mode just to turn it off...

Cheaper to hire John Connor... he's a drifter without cash, so he comes cheap.

[–]keeekeeess 2 points3 points ago

As a person who knows how computers work, I never understood why people were hitting the screen instead of the case.

[–]Scorpius289 0 points1 point ago

But, but... That could damage the hard drive! (says the guy who lost one by repeatedly hitting his computer...)

[–]archfapper 0 points1 point ago

That's what he gets for thinking hitting the monitor would do anything.

[–]thesearenotmypants 0 points1 point ago

That didn't really happen.

This is the best GIF I've seen in a long time. I'm giving a presentation on Computer Network Attack next week, and this GIF is going to be at the center of my discussion on "combing kinetic attacks with computer attacks." Or maybe... Evolving Computer Defense? Anyone else have good ideas for funny videos or GIFs to include? I'd love one of Chuck Norris kicking a computer...

This is part of a UK tv series on the BBC, created by a member of the b3ta community but I can't remember the name of it.

you know what's funny though, the REAL videos of people doing this, they always go after the monitor, as if it's the monitor that's the computer. That tends to point to a pretty stupid cunt, and whatever issue they were having would invariably be user-side.

Im gonna upvote you and downvote the previous commenter even though you two said the exact same thing. The problem is that reddit has trained me to hate everyone in the negative and at least give people with +1 upvotes a reasonable chance at recieving my upvote as well. It's bullshit IMO, but surfing reddit has trained me like a dog playing fetch.

I have an iMac....but no worries bro, I choose not to take offense to that, or anything for that matter. Go ahead, try me. I'll give you a sentence full of material seeds. I'm schizophrenic, 6'2" 150 lbs, LDS (Mormon), I live in my mom's basement, I have no job, and I survive off food stamps. Go ahead... Try me. I really should have broken this whole comment up into more sentences. Anyways if you do try to offend me, I deserve material on you
