mtmerrick:
Please do not confuse hard drive /SSD storage space with RAM guys. It's enough to make a geek like myself get the twitches.
bhtooefr:
Very very true, and I can't believe I didn't catch that jump. :psyduck:
(Then again, if Momo were an IBM mainframe, 97 TB of storage would actually be RAM, "storage" being IBMese for RAM.)
mtmerrick:
Ok, but an anthroPC is most definitely not an IBM mainframe :P

--- Quote from: Method of Madness on 24 Apr 2013, 11:57 ---I'm not trying to equate the two, but I'm surprised how harsh the forum is towards Clinton when he fucks up trying to help, but plays off anything Claire does to Clinton. Like I said, not the same, but Clinton's intentions are good (at least I think they are) while Claire never hesitates to use Clinton for a joke. Plus, as wrong as he was, Clinton probably assumed she told him because she wanted him to talk to Marten about it because she was too nervous to. His execution of course, was awful, but hopefully this is resolved at least a little by week's end (after another episode of the Steve Cereal Saga).

Double standards are fun!
It's been pretty much forgotten that her first appearances also showed her to be a jackass, but character development, especially her reveal, made her a lot more sympathetic and she's been downgraded to light snarking. Clinton hasn't gotten as much development to make him more sympathetic (unless your name is Hannelore). His appearances are still about 75% making a mess/ cleaning up after it.

Don't worry, not all of us have forgotten just how unpopular she was when she first appeared. It's also worth noting how Clinton is still swinging wildly between world's greatest brother and the devil incarnate. So, if by character development you mean "we have gotten to know her better", I agree. People just like to show knee-jerk reactions around here.
I feel badly for Claire, but I thought I'd just throw in a thought for Clinton earlier because no-one else seems to care, and he's probably feeling pretty shitty about what he's done right about now.

You sure about that?
(If she was a bank AI, she was almost surely running on IBM System z hardware.)
