i see they go with the usual template of nerdy looking guy and hot girl

mjkmike · Apr 16, 2011, 04:25 AM

That hot girl is the one that sings the portal song, and is a bigger geek than most.

streetfighter 2 · Apr 16, 2011, 05:14 AM

I didn't even realize that was Tekzilla. I watched some of their vids on youtube when they had a different name.

The one where they hook up car batteries to a UPS is pretty funny. They do a lot of stuff I do, or would like to do but haven't had the chance.

you mean the guy is supposed to be cool and the girl is supposed to be an ugly fat chick?

Funtoss · Apr 16, 2011, 05:55 AM

wow i didnt know anything about techzlla! thank you for this awesome website lol i have watched 12 videos so far!!

Shes supposed to look hot? You better go out and look around it's been too long that you are in front of your computer...or your wife keep staring at what you look at :P

majestic12 · Apr 16, 2011, 08:38 AM

never heard of it -guess I'll have to check it out! (After going there really quickly) -agree with Eric On Web with the hotness thing for the girl. I guess she's kinda cute, but definitely not what I would call "hot". Nowhere near an Olivia Munn level or anything at least.

qubit · Apr 16, 2011, 09:20 AM

I think this geek babe, Jade Raymond, is hotter. She has a lovely face in particular.

See more Jade pics here: http://thechive.com/2010/01/18/jade-...-it-15-photos/

Easy Rhino · Apr 16, 2011, 05:28 PM

i dont want to get into a cyclical debate over what is "hot" and what isn't. let me put it this way. Jade Raymond is attractive in the classic sense. Nice body, pretty face and a girl next door look. What's more, she is actually a geek since she was a programmer at sony and produced the game assassins creed. she is also the president of ubisoft toronto. so she makes her money actually working for a living and not showing off her cleavage. that is incredibly attractive if you ask me. but hey, im an adult.

qubit · Apr 16, 2011, 05:34 PM

Nice summary, Easy.

Personally, I love a girl who's computer literate. It makes such a difference. And the more tech skills she's got eg programming, the more I'm interested in her.

I tell you, I work on a helpdesk all day and with most of them, it's like pulling teeth trying to get them to understand the simplest, littlest, most fucking obvious things and they can almost never describe the problem accurately. It's always a red herring and you have to tease out the truth by shadowing and savvy interrogation.

I dunno how I stand it.

They make it sound so dangerous, but people who live on narrow boats have setups like this ALL the time

( not for pcs normally but I've seen some cool stuff, old 30" tv for example)

It is indeed a great feat! I am very excited... in more ways than one

Watched it a couple of times, definitely better than the Danish show "So ein ding" and the English "The Gadget Show".

A quite good and diverse show that covers the stuff in a decent way.

Eric_On_Web · Apr 17, 2011, 06:01 AM

I'm a mixed native and only my behalf no white women or black are attractive. Native women only...maybe asian since native americans have far asian ancestors. But hey I donderstand Easy onthat one about the Girl next door and financial independant woman.
