  1. Damn it! on 80 Proof Quickies · · Score: 1

    Ok, what freakin' college are these chics(calculus-girls) going to?? Cause here in mid-michigan there were no hotties in my calc classes!! Oh and the intro quote was cute.. "No, I have never posed for an online porn site.". Hrrmmmmm that wasnt the first thing I thought of when I went to the site. Ok fine I did, but its more of a habit...

    I can imagine just how many male geeks are looking for an e-mail address as we speak ;) Now u can take ur chances at getting dissed by a hot geek-gurl instead of the ol' no chance factor that came with other hot women.

  3. Re:Selling philosophy disguised as science... on The Mind of God · · Score: 1

    Everything comes from philosophy. If u think about it, everyhting in science was at one time just a concept that someone had to prove or had proven for them later. Philosophy is power, w/o it we would have no metaphysical boundries (justice, Time, ect...).

    Well, I will miss lobodomy gurl (sniffle), but u never know this may be even sillier than the 1st!!I vote for Asia Carrera(sp) as his cave-man/woman lover. ;) rowr!! Oh, and Fiona Apple as the "Bitchy" ape ruler could be interesting.

    A bunch of small town cops out on a witch hunt?? Nothin better to do than lynch some computer geek for owning a "hacker" program. You would think that if this d00d was hacking something important that the FBI would be on his ass, not Jimbo and Uncle Pete. Sounds to me like this guy made someone in the community (with money) really unhappy.

  10. tired of seeing NON computer geeks into CS/CE on Women CS Majors Declining · · Score: 1

    Its great to see women/men interested in computers!! But, when we get a flood of lost puppies entering CS/CE programs because they heard "You can make a lot of money doin that!!" , Im am GLAD to see the decrease in women entering these programs. The same goes for men in my opinon. I pray for the 2001 Fernolegist shortage myself.

    we were talking more about Hunting with handguns... I just listed a couple of weapons fer fun. I would agree that a shotgun is a better choice all around for the new-average user. I takes less skill to use buck, pheasent or steel shot to detour multiple enemies. In a confrontation with multiple oncoming attackers the pistol would not be as effective unless every shot were placed correctly. The scatter weapons (including homemade explos. and mines) are much more efficent BANGS fer ur BUCK. Automatics would be nice, but we are talking real life situations so...

    Now lets say we were in an urban envior., the pistol and shotgun would be a choice for short range building and street fighting. Now lets take the fight into the open fields and woods, the rifle (fer distance and power) would rule the day. I have heard that a man trained in high levels of Martial Arts can be a lethal opponent. But put him in a (non hand to hand) firefight and his fighting skills would be useless.

    Thinking ahead is good!! I have family in the boonies myself and I will leave my house in the city in a moment to head out to the country. Much easier to defend a home outside of an urban setting.

  16. agreed. on The Geek Compound Prepares for Y2k · · Score: 1
    357 is a proven weapon in the field exspecially if u load ur own ammo. I used a .44 mag w/ scope and holster fer 2 seasons and when tuned and practiced with, was effective well past 50 yds. I dont have great nerves for shooting handguns and would take a rifle anyday over a handgun, but the handgun is much more fun ;) As for my 9mm, it lays a scattered pattern that I wound never trust past 35 yards. The P-90's werent made for hunting, but rather home defense.

    *legal* Disaster weapons of choice - 1)12 gauge ITHICA, coated flat black, 9 round mag. and polymer stock with all the nifty little addons 2) MAK-90, wood grips and thumb stock fitted with a 4x20 scope and and extra milled upper reciever(none of that side mount shit!),flash hider/muzzle lift kit and MEGA bananna clips w/ russian JHP.

  17. hmmm, I'd would have to see it to believe it. on The Geek Compound Prepares for Y2k · · Score: 1
    First lets look at the SIZE cal. of the weapon at hand. A 9mm is NOT a man/animal stopper and will do little damage to an animal of such size. It goes in the size of a pencil and might only create a exit wound 1-2 inch dia. if using JHP ammo (Hydroshock ammo is good). I personally own a 9mm Ruger and I would not risk the chance at using up ammo and wounding an animal that might not even die from the wound inflicted by using the wrong weapon. 50 yards is no problem if u are using a weapon designed for loger range shoots(357, 44, 45mag), but even a high quality 9mm (like a glock, sig, er a ol browning) would take a skilled marksman to place a shot given the situation.

    ps - Yes deer have big, thick boned shoulders that can and have reflected arrows shot at 70 lbs fitted with 145 grain Muzzy broadheads at 40 yards. So to think that a 9mm will even create a wound that would ensure a 2nd shot would be wishful thinking.

    Mouse - Could be gutted, DUCT taped(good for all things) and filled with sand or lead to be used as a swingable mace type weapon.

    CD Drive - Open and use as a cup holder..

    Zip drive disks - Take disk out of casing, DUCT tape Razor blades onto the surface, make 2 new holes, insert rope through both, tie rope and use as a spinning weapon.

    PIII (Gateway) Heatsync - Use pronged ends to tenderize meat.

    Keyboard - Beat the hell out of someones head with it! After one good use, it will be no good for defense so use keys as missing scrabble peices!!

  19. Oh no! on The Geek Compound Prepares for Y2k · · Score: 1
    I am from Southern Michigan and I know at least one group that believes our county will be the only remaining county ABOVE water on Jan. 2! Then we cant forget about the fruit loops that are stocking Food, Gas, Gens, and Handguns in their garage/so_called_bunkers. Oh, and WTF is up with people buying handguns? A rifle or Shotgun is MUCH easier to kill FOOD with and does just as much damage(if not more) than a Handgun!! Can u picture some urbanite out in a pasture taking pop shots at a deer 50 yards out with a 9mm Ruger!! Ha! Well I guess if the choas is to come I might as well get into it by buying all the Doritos, Twinkies and Mug rootbeer I could possibly store in my house. Oh and I think a generator could be useful so that I can run my computer. (Overclock the processor fer heat..;)

    This is the oppertunity I have been waiting for. The chance to screw with the feeble minds of a few souless fools. First we lock em up tight in the bunker. Then we start feeding them bogus info through what ever means they have (TV, RADIO). Scare the hell outta them with reports of nuclear weapons exploding, electrical outages and NO MTV!!! They will crack and try to get out, but it will be funny to watch them freak out. Or as an alternative plan we can keep the doors half open to the entrance and have a hand grenade throwing contest. For spunk we could fire in some 20mm cannon rounds??..

  22. hmm... on Youngest Software Executive is Three Years Old · · Score: 1

    Interesting story. Lets think about how silly this whole concept REALLY is. My first thought (and hopefully everyone elses) was that a 3 year old child can not concieve abstractly. Thier ability to understand complicated tasks and given the KNOWN restrictions a 3 year old has mechanically (Walking? Talking? Moving an eyebrow up and down?), it would have to be somewhat of a miracle for any of this to take REAL shape and meaning for a human being so young. So my point is that if you do not have to possess an understanding of the tasks you are completing then all of us in the IT biz are doomed to be replaced by monkeys. There is something to say for independant thought, and obviously the person who apperered to rep. the kid in this article believes otherwise.

    This is a great book!! I bought it a few weeks back and I have read about 3/4 of it already. The examples are good and it doesnt take an experienced C programmer to understand what is going on. Plus it just flat out covers alot of ground. My only gripe was that it did not spend alot of time on Sockets and the terminal programming. Otherwise it touches Perl, Tcl, Gnome, C, Shell programming, Html, CGI, blah, blah, blah... Being a Java/VB programmer (and a newbie to the C lang) I have learned quite a bit from this book so far. zI
