mathogre is right. The camera is built in for a reason. Put tape over it when watching pr0n. And I don't mean masking tape. I don't even mean duct tape. The camera is recording infrared light which penetrates regular tape. That is right, infrared, as in heat. The camera is capturing you in heat. And it will end up on youtube. Go to an automotive store and ask for diesel engine spark plug tape. It is metal coated.

Just don't watch it from any of those dirty windows computers in the red light district, you'll get a virus. Just kidding. Take a whack at it and see what happens. Does anybody know if his iSight will go blind watching him watch porn?

Remember a few months back all those stories of people's laptops catching on fire?

It wasn't the batteries...it was porn. Bad stuff....

Well, if someone walks into the room, remember the following:

1) do not use Exposé

2) do not minimize to the Dock, because unlike Windows... the window will still be visible

3) do not have Dock Magnification turned on... you get the picture (literally? >_> )

4) if you have no other window open, do not try to open a new app in hopes of creating a new window, as OS X apps do not necessarily open a new window when launched

5) and even if you have another window open, bringing it to the front might not work, since OS X windows are usually not "maximized"

6) do not use Spotlight, especially if you have Bookmarks enabled in the Spotlight Search Results


Good luck to ye!

XD XD

Just saran-wrap the keyboard. Ask your local chinese-food take-out place for advice, they seem to do it well. Or maybe get a McDonald's style touchpad. I said touch... heh heh...

This sure is one silly thread.

I am surprised no one suggested this, Portable firefox and a flash drive. No trail no "accidental" searches .

Now, I have only heard about this and have no first, ah, um, Hand experience.

Even if you not would catch any mac affecting virus, it can still slow things down. So always empty cache afterwards. Set cookies not to be accepted. And if you have Firefox or Mozilla you can use No Script to avoid further nasty thingies.

If it is risky to view pr(o)n why would they add 10 pr(o)n site to Safari by default?

So the answer is no.

To get the best possible experience, a large hard drive is better than sloppy software.

If you have carpeting, get one of those plastic mats from staples. People use them for making your office chair roll easier. You'll use it for
keeping your carpet un-crusty. That stuff is hard to get out of things like carpet and the hair on the back of someone's head.

I wonder how far we can take this before we get locked.
