Laptop stickers

Tandy Iwakura · 2019-06-23 22:29
What stickers does Lainchan have on their laptop/desktop? What do they mean to you?
Cypher · 2019-06-23 23:49
>>11896 I used to have my previous laptop covered in Free Software stickers and such. But having acquired ThinkPads I now feel like putting stickers on them would ruin the aesthetic. So I now have a pile of stickers amassed and don't know what to do with them.
Aristóteles Amadópulus · 2019-06-23 23:50
Heavy metal band my friend is in. Wolf cub stickers another friend sent me because WOLVES.
XERXES · 2019-06-24 01:03
Mostly stickers from merch companies and medical Marijuana. But I glued a pin from VR streamer UKRifter on there.
Joey · 2019-06-24 01:20
>>11896 used to have a (star wars) tie fighter sticker, i liked it, because it wasn't that obvious when you passed but it still showed a franchise i liked... and now i got a "copying and pasting from stack overflow" sticker, which i find funny (yeah... i actually do :O) especialy when submitting my work at uni
Tandy Iwakura · 2019-06-24 03:16
>>11897 True, ThinkPads look much better bare. >>11898 Heavy metal and wolves are valid. What is the name of your friends band? >>11900 Ooh, I watch UKRifter too. >>11901 To be honest, I do the same thing. I feel like many other Lainons also copy from Stack Overflow, but they will never admit to it.
Rick Deckard · 2019-06-24 15:55
>>11902 i mean it's mostly when i am unfamiliar with some concept, so i can run the code and learn how to write it myself (because a) my pride b) uni would give me soykaf if i did copy code), but i still find that sticker funny
Ivan Petrov · 2019-06-24 15:58
>>11912 >>11902 btw, i originally meant that i "actually do find it funny" and not that copy someone's work, but you get me... stack overflow is mostly about learning anyway :)
Delilah · 2019-06-24 20:13
I call this one my propaganda laptop. I think the stickers speak for themselves, for the most part.
Bobby Newmark · 2019-06-26 18:59
Where do you guys get your stickers for free software, privacy, etc.? I'd love to have some stickers like >>11917
Aristóteles Amadópulus · 2019-06-26 20:10
>>11939 At least in my country they give them out at free software meetings and talks
Crazy Jake · 2019-06-27 22:56
>>11939 Most of those look like they came from EFF and DEF CON. I know EFF sells sticker packs, the ones from ACLU and CrimethInc were probably swag for buying stuff or donations. There's also places like https://www.stickermule.com/unixstickers and https://www.redbubble.com/shop/foss+stickers
Molly Millions · 2019-07-03 17:19
Here's mine, although I'm going to have to make room for Defcon 2019 stickers soon.
Nameless · 2019-07-03 21:42
>>12026 Curious what the cover-ups were.
Crazy Jake · 2019-07-04 08:43
I like to keep it free of clutter
Lord Nikon · 2019-07-04 17:22
mostly game jams stickers, a few my friends made, one with lain and some random ones i ran out of space already
Yuki Nagato · 2019-07-04 19:32
Unnamed · 2019-07-04 20:35
>>12029 Glue left from old stickers, it makes me cringe every time I see it too! I'm going to clean it off better when I re-do them in a couple months
Unidentified · 2019-07-25 04:34
Only a Debian sticker and win 98 sticker for AESTHETICCCCCCKs
Dujour · 2019-07-25 12:41
>>11917 I call that the "please, stop me at the border" look :)
Terzibashjian · 2019-07-25 15:48
>>12289 I can't imagine crossing the border with a laptop these days anyway. I wasn't planning on bringing a phone either if I go to the US again, and if they ask just say mine broke a few days before and I thought it made more sense to buy one on the US side. Uh, this could be a whole other thread really.
Technician · 2019-07-25 16:28
>>12289 I get lots of soykaf from TSA regardless of whether I have this laptop with me or not. :-\ Although I have to say, the best way to breeze through security is to have a young kid with you. They don't give a damn at that point, just wave you through.
Spooky · 2019-07-25 17:14
>>12291 Been thinking about carrying a separate m.2 ssd as a dummy drive and putting the real one in some kind of hidden space. Maybe inside the laptop case somewhere but disconnected, kind of hiding in plain sight.
Agent Smith · 2019-07-26 06:50
>>12293 Are you saying next time I'm at the airport I should grab a random kid to expedite security checks? Seems counterintuitive, with the kid's parent screaming and the kid screaming and all, but ok, I'll give it a try.
Drano · 2019-07-26 14:03
Stickerbombing is the most normal glitterboy thing I can imagine doing with your own hardware.
Wintermute · 2019-07-26 18:37
>>12308 Yeah, I bet they don't even parkour.
Ein · 2019-08-08 20:14
>>11896 i just have a simple hammer and sickle on mine
Nemissa · 2019-08-10 00:40
>>11896 >>11939 The only stickers I have are the FSF and GNU stickers I received by joining the FSF. The last image I've added here is an example of those stickers I dislike. The Defective by Design stickers just aren't appealing in the same way the logos are. I also got some penguin stickers from ThinkPenguin and I use one of them to cover a webcam.
Project 2501 · 2019-08-10 08:59
>>11896 I actually don't have stickers but I have a Pot of Greed keychain hanging on my Desktop and some lights on it.
Yu-ichi · 2019-08-24 10:30
I have one on my ol' reliable Aspire One with "#Arschvielbier" which roughly translates to "#sh*tloadsofbeer". Put it on to mask a big, deep and horroble scratch. Not too much of a sticker fan otherwise.
Ivan Petrov · 2019-09-05 07:42
the foilage one is from braincandyink on ibstgram, she makes some pretty nice stickers and other stuff
Switch · 2019-09-05 13:31
>>12843 That's really sick. Gotta get me one of those. Your other one's pretty cool too, where's it from?
Void · 2019-09-24 21:26
I want to sticker bomb a couple laptops when I can. Currently this is what I have on my old Dell XPS. Its where the spec stickers used to be. I know it's a dead meme, but I thought it was funny.
The Plague · 2019-09-24 22:18
I just have a Black Sabbath flier taped to my laptop.
Apoc · 2019-09-29 15:41
Stickers are tattoos for laptops.
Frank Garza · 2019-09-29 22:49
On my thinkpad x1 carbon, I have Tux sticker, a git sticker, a python sticker and a vim sticker. Besides the vim sticker I don't really like them anymore though. Once I have a used T420 I will consider to put a lainchan sticker on it once they are finally there.
Demeere · 2019-11-03 12:36
>>12844 it's illyasviel from the fate series, bought on redbubble
Boris Grishenko · 2019-11-07 16:16
>>13020 I like tattoos :)
Inarius · 2019-11-07 18:35
>>11896 Some Free software and GNU/Linux related stickers and one hl2 logo. I just bought the sticker paper and printed them on one page.
Cereal Killer · 2019-11-21 06:39
this is from a few months ago, now i have more
Pulse · 2019-11-21 06:53
>>13856 Ooo got ourselves a Junji Itou fan I see. Nice
fsociety · 2019-11-22 04:17
>>11896 Generally I don't use stickers especially on Thinkpads but I just couldn't help myself with this one
John Doe · 2019-11-25 12:43
>>11896 where do you get these stickers?
Unknown · 2019-12-02 00:14
>>11896 Here's an update, cleaned off the fuarrrkups too.
Chani · 2019-12-02 18:01
>>14112 i found this one on redbubble
Cutter · 2020-06-24 22:22
>>12289 Well what my company suggests we do per policy is to backup our electronic devices (phone, laptop, etc), encrypt and upload to corporate servers, and then wipe our devices. If we ever get stopped by the TSA, we have nothing to show, if they ask why, we say it's corporate policy, since we deal with private customer data. Usually there isn't a problem.
Guthrie · 2020-07-07 20:23
As soon as my work changed their policy of letting you keep old hardware I covered my laptop with stickers. I tried my best to get a nice mix of shapes and papers so that they'll hopefully all need to be removed differently. I also made sure to cover the asset tag.
Leto Atreides I · 2020-07-08 04:35
The Eye sticker came from their merch shop. The Fplus is a podcast that reads and mocks stupid things on the internet, the sticker came free with a shirt I bought from them. And the yankee girl i got from a local artist at a convention. Everything else was just redbubble. I also want to get this death grips sticker, but I can't find 3 other stickers I like enough to get the discount yet. [spoiler]Remember to strip the exif chummers[/spoiler]
Special Agent Bob · 2020-07-08 14:58
Just love skulls and knifes. (I know it's related to Italian fascism don't care). And it make me lookin 1337 haxxxer lol. On a soykafty dell... meh
Heidegger · 2020-07-08 16:37
Just my heart bomb. Something like quiet as a bomb.
John Titor · 2020-07-08 17:22
Can someone tell me where I can order nmap/other port scanning and Tor propaganda? Are official sites best bet?
Hacker · 2020-07-08 20:27
>>18285 redbubble iirc has some stuff, official sites or "hacker" sites sometimes have swag. Just be a cyberpunk and use stolen internet pics on sticker paper from your local office supply store. You do have a copier/printer, don't you Lain? You can be as offensive as you want if you do it yourself (plz dont be too edgy if you also put lain pix on there). Keep it classy like picrel
Molly Millions · 2020-07-08 20:31
>>18283 I used to sticker my hard drives with edgy skullz and funny lables, airport security gave me a funny look when I declared 3 hard drives and 2 laptops during a search. All of them were stickered out with sk8r/tech stickers or had some kind of edgy phrase labeled on them.
Junichi Fujiwara · 2020-07-15 16:39
>>13856 >Hentai Haven sticker How do you use your laptop in public without being embarrassed?
Yu-ichi · 2020-07-18 02:10
>>18432 Honestly, I'm not into hentai so the stickers don't talk to me (except "anime tiddies" which speak for itself).
Linda Lee · 2020-08-16 12:21
Laptop
Mario Rossi · 2020-08-16 17:16
>>18907 Nice. Where'd you get some of these?
Void · 2020-08-23 06:36
>>18911 Amazon, fakku and girlfriend surprisingly from her work place a bar.
Lunch · 2020-08-24 22:36
Sticker bombing with all these randum "geek" pop-culture cliparts seems like such a loq-IQ decision to do with your won laptop. Looks like ghetto graffiti on a vandalized 19th century neogothic building.
Agent Jones · 2020-08-24 22:43
>>19022 nah, I think it's cool
Pris · 2020-08-25 05:11
>>19022 I wouldn't call it "low-IQ" but I agree that it's a bit tasteless >>11896 I'd like to have some music/anime stickers in my laptop. Plus, I'm planning to save some money to have a desktop PC so it's good to have some color in my laptop. >>18284 That sticker gives me American Idiot vibes, pretty cool. >>18907 >lewd stickers Personally if I want porn, I look at my screen and not at the back of my computer but you do you.
Crazy Jake · 2020-08-25 15:28
>>19022 High tech low-life.
Junichi Fujiwara · 2020-09-04 10:08
Many years ago, someone made a 'new' logo and stickers for Linux and they became somewhat popular. I finally fixed the problems they had - the grey one could be a pretty good sticker. Also, here's the SVG for the original font in case you want to edit that somehow.
Splicer · 2020-09-04 17:08
>>19239 Some Netscape-style stickers. Plus versions which use an edited font that's actually libre (Young Serif).
Neo · 2020-09-08 14:23
Used to have, but nowadays feels like having them makes me an attention whoring normal person. The only one I might consider putting on again was from a series of stickers from the jam place I go to, nice community I'd like to support.
