Nokia ripping of "Demo or die!"-slogan?
category: general [glöplog]
Last week I was at an boring nokia presentation where they spoke about their business. Suddenly the guy begun to talk about "demo or die". I mean: wtf?!
Actual picture of the presentation with the slide that says "Demo or Die" (although not very readable due to sucky iphone camera)

"not very readable" is an understatement, I must say.
And 'Demo or die' was stolen from 'Skate or die' anyway, so who cares.

You do realize that the word 'demo' has other meanings as well, right?
What Okkie said. Everyone knows that "demo" can mean multiple things - like normal demo or megademo. Sometimes people even refer to 64k intros as a 64k demo.
MIT students also say "demo or die." (Yes, it's on the google search as well)
I'd go for "emo and die"
damn iphone cameras...
with that picture quality it looks like there's a screenshot of my video in the lower right corner. :D
LOL, iphone!
Damn, putting a nosfe video into the middle of a powerpoint presentation is a work of genius! I'm stealing that idea right now.
Wasn't 'demo or die' coined during the student protest of the 60s?

also.. who photoshopped bill gates in that photo, it aint funny!
DEMO OR DIET!
That google search reveals some interesting gems: 1995ish vintage article about the demoscene.

DEMO OR THAI

If you have used nokia phone, you would have had clear image.
Reasons why some steal.
1. for survival
1. sex
2. to impress friends
4. nothing else to do
5. inherited
6. sex
7. friends push you to do it
8. greed
8. really want what someone else have, but can only have it though stealing
In NOKIA's case I its 1 and 8 that makes them demo or die.

neoneye: you're weird..
pohar: i wasn't being serious, i just searched for the slides but didn't find them and i didn't want to annoy the guy with a pointless mail ;) i was just sitting there and almost asleep when he mentioned "demo or die" and i was surprised until i was completly awake and realised that he was talking about demonstrations.
