I like it like this...
Lastdarkninja
Im pretty sure he knows what he is doing, and is probably doing it on purpose
AlmondRoboPanda
I can chime in here. News stations do this if they want to show a computer but the computer is emblazoned with a logo.
fartharder
Windows 8 touchscreen.
kikishounet
I'm french, it's french TV and i present you our police elite !
Onesickpup
You can't spell computer without some of the letters from the surname of Nicolas Comte.
MissPammie
Oh. My. God.
VeServino993
But he's looking down at the screen D: if he was doing it for the camera he'd be pretending to look up at the keyboard. Unless I'm missing
keinzufall
Obvious: There is more than one cup in the office!
keinzufall
Good cup / bad cup
Harmonex
Someone pulled the prank that flips the desktop upside-down and he couldn't figure out how to fix it.
Qbert
You sank my battleship!
ialreadyfappedtothat
Must be Australia
eggmuffin
Despite the common belief that he's a blithering idiot, I like to assume that he knows what he's doing and that we need some context.
mustbeyoghurtorsomthing
Is it so they dont show the logo
SubzeroAK
Is he in Australia?
SenorSmooth
Probably France
350Zoidberg
Oh this needs more upvotes!
Lasmodoe
He got an Australian email.
jackblade
I like how no one noticed the url says YOLO.
sleepyllama
It's probably a touchscreen and he doesn't bother using the keyboard.
Zaxthran
upside down laptop
Magnivore
He could be fixing it.
TadpoleHitler
"Ohhh. Duh how did I not see that." -everyone
IWISHIWASRELEVANT
"Actually i saw it pretty quick" -everyone with eyes

Nah bro, touch screen. You so 3000 and late.

YolOS!

"Man, this is a tough case. Maybe if I try looking at it from a different angle?"
juicaine
I shouldn't be a detective.
mnmprincess
Im gonna be honest, I thought syndicat was spelt wrong....
2flower
It was. And they also misspelled Cindy.
Stojas
Context: The picture of a suspect was emailed to him but it was upside down so he had to improvise.
kamisan
Bollocks, I'm betting 1 million internet points that the laptop brand couldn't be shown
DrHey
Is that a real-real context or a look-at-me-messing-with-those-penguins context?
Stojas
yes
CaptainOverlyObvious
"or"
Stojas
My answer is still yes.
Shoura
Most likely latter. French are saying it's the block the brand.
OmNomZombie
Ctrl+alt+down arrow?
OmNomZombie
Well, what about right clicking on the desktop then, going to graphics options-rotation-180 degrees.
Stojas
Not all graphic cards allow that shortcut. Or any keyboard shortcut.
IUsedTheSameUsernameForNeopetsButIChangedAsNeopetsIsForTweens
that worked on my POS high school computer, but it sure doesn't on my signifigantly better laptop.
mobiusm1
works with all intel graphics chipsets, which generally means shitty onboard graphics.
IUsedTheSameUsernameForNeopetsButIChangedAsNeopetsIsForTweens
Are you saying that computer had a better graphics than mine?
mobiusm1
there are chipsets shittier than intel. but not many.
SMSgtBrown
I thought there was a snowtrooper on the bottom one in the lower left. Wow me
DidIJustSeeSomebodyDie
How does one make that mistake? And then just go with it?
soukmania
Well I'm French and work in PR, so I can try to tell you. First, if you look at it, you can see RAID cups in the back, which is the
soukmania
equivalent of the SWAT. So it's very likely this guy never actually works with a computer himself. Secondly, when people have to do
soukmania
an interview with a top national media, they are often under terrible pressure to not fuck up. That's when they do the worst mistakes.
soukmania
He was probably so focused on the speech he learned, rehearsed over and over, trying to act cool, he did not even look at the laptop
mysteryroach
Rather, trying not to show the brand I think, but yes, et salut compatriote.
eggmuffin
Despite the common belief that he's a blithering idiot, I like to assume that he knows what he's doing and that we need some context.
Endver
It's to avoid showing the brand of the laptop on the news. Kind of a dumb way to get around that.
DidIJustSeeSomebodyDie
Still think it would make more sense to not open the laptop in the first place then.
CommonWhiteGirl
I just expect Bill Clinton everywhere
engineeringcowboy
I kept looking for the black person.
woozle
Dick Butt
MrButtersox
My lord... You are literally everywhere on imgur...
CommonWhiteGirl
some people are butt hurt about it. I've been getting a lot of hate
MrButtersox
Really? I'm finding it to be rather amusing
nycnewyork
My nigga...
Onesickpup
Is that a lapbottom?
Rayfasa
Maybe it's a touch screen? Or a prop. I vote prop, lol.
IBuiltAFreakingArk
The thickest lap bottom
nonIONizing
Your comment is brilliant simplicity.
cheesypundit
is.. is that a gay thing?
reasonstodoit
I thought it was an all-in-one at first. WTF is wrong with you Nicolas?
ArdentSlacker
Yes, this man has suffered a lapbottomy.
therooproject
CanadaRobinson
Quite literally the best thing that I've read in a long time.
TheStormThief
I just laughed so hard I couldn't breathe
Counterfit
It's a toplap
herrocaro
I've been laughing like 'eheheheehehe'. for the past 5 mins because of your comment. +1 for you!
halifix
It's the MS Surface prototype
codexdelux
He wanted a touchscreen, but was told to get it done within the police budget.
Onesickpup
I'm sorry, that doesn't even make the slightest bit of sense.
ian9outof10
Holy shit, I'm double laughing here, you made me DOUBLE FUCKING LAUGH.
kleelu
No, no it makes perfect sense. Probably the most sense.
makemepancakes
I was going to respond with "RUDE" and then I realized you were commenting on your own comment.
Hanska01
Me too, haha.
iliketokeepitsimplestupid
Touchscreen? He may just be lazy as fuck and has inverted it.
JustASmallTownMinnesotanImgurlLivingInALonelyWorld
Looks too old and bulky to be a touchscreen. However, I have a touchscreen laptop, and I may try this now
iliketokeepitsimplestupid
It's an instant tablet...
WilliamIV
Always check the top comment if you don't understand the joke.
AsteriskZipAsterisk
Someone explain
goodasgold444
pretty sure the laptop is upside down
BuellerBuellerBueller
Upside down computer, screen is where the keyboard should be
plouffi
Did anyone explain that his laptop was upside down yet?
Nicolaaaaa
his laptop is not as it should be
steamengenius
I think the laptop is upside down?
BuiSauce
His laptop is sitting on the lid side (it's tilted)
playdo
His laptop is tilted I guess
jaypeg
his upside down is laptop
FoodInc
The screen is where the keyboard should be...
shininghero
the laptop is upside down
danjomite
his lapdown is upsidetop
TheRicM
frais
the laptops upside down
MrCullmann
they probably couldnt show the laptop product name that was on the front. only logical thing i can think of.
Spice00002
The name below him disappears in the second picture.
kimedward
The laptop is upside down
grlutt
It's to avoid showing the computer brand (illegal for Press in France)
mobiusm1
meanwhile in America, it's legal for the press to outright lie about the news. :c
burnaby
why didn't he just close it?
grlutt
he was watching and commenting a video
moutonnoireu
Generally speaking our press blur it.
SecugenHamster
then just put some duct tape on it!
EverSoSlightly
Ze band of ze canard?
KingRounda
Duct tape? You want to make a mockery of the job here? You want to see them laughed at? They have a reputation to uphold. Professionalism.
cliathwolf
Or a post it note over it? That looks like an office. I'm sure they had paper and a piece of tape.
grlutt
I suppose the journalists didn't have their mandatory ductape when they went to interview the guy
PitbullsPublicist
better to look like a retard then to put the laptop away so you don't look like an illiterate ponce.
AfatCatnamedHiggins
but, at the same time, anyone who has used alot of computers can tell it's an Acer, an older Acer.
