Dude, taking a girl out to a dinner is not radical. It's what average frustrated chumps do.
Just give her this geek toy and write, "Valentines is stupid, meaningless, and over-rated. I'm too sexy for a valentines card, but this shit will do. Happy now?"
Riddle me this: why is it that if someone has trouble in math or something, other people who can do it will offer to help, but if someone is socially inept, the immediate reaction is to ostracize the person rather than offering to give them social coaching?
When someone has trouble in Math, Linux, or in any technical subjects, the geek's immediate reaction* is to ostracize the person and brand him as a n00b.
Yikes, I don't know if anyone would read this since I have a negative karma, but I'm pasting snippets from my notes:
If you wish to syntax check (lint) all the PHP files in your current directory, simply do:
for i in `ls *.php`; do
php -l $i
done
You can delete all IPv6 addresses in an interface using the following command (vanilla Bourne shell):
while i="`ifconfig le0 | grep inet6 | grep -m 1 -v '%'`"; do
ifconfig le0 $i delete done
To inspect all figlet fonts visually, simply do: % cd/usr/local/share/figlet % for i in `ls *.flf | sed -n -e 's/\(.*\)\.flf/\1/p'`; do echo Slashdot | figlet -f $i; done | less
Yepp, I can attest to that. Some time ago, I installed Eliza bot and set it to initiate a chat session with random chatters in the Internet. I watched in amazement as humans start to get annoyed by her "annoying" responses. The way she rephrases and throws back questions was annoying, but many thought she was real.
Section 6 welcomes him or her to the International Order of Ninja, covering the top brass of the organization, ninja internships, and a bit of ninja rap music.
There are infinite ways to store ninja music. One exciting way is to gather a large group of pirates and hang them upside down to let them represent a series of bits. A live pirate represents 1 bit while a dead pirate represents 0 bit. Music can be stored efficiently this way. This is a write-once storage medium because bits can only be turned off, not on. Ninjas prefer this storage medium.
Wouldn't it be cool to let the pirates double as a music player too? The pirates can be arranged into an array and their heights can be represented as a single note which they need to sing. The space between the pirates represents time. Their heights can be manipulated by the simple process of cutting off their limbs. This method is energy-efficient because we need not use electricity, although it would be cool to electrocute the pirates while they sing.
This is clearly related to the Large Hadron Collider that was recently activated.
When the Internet was invented at CERN, the scientists realized that it was impossible to set up an Interplanetary and Intergalactical Internet because signals can't go faster than light.
In order to solve this, they needed to create a portal to cut off the travel time. Thus, the Large Hadron Collider was born.

I have this weird hobby. I get a kick on getting a negative moderation on some forums (including this one, obviously) with innocent non-troll looking comments. It's like I'm exploring the nature of human behavior. It satisfies my curiosity on finding out what stimuli induces certain reactions, and finding out to what extent it is malleable. People are complex systems, and I find them fascinating!

Ah yes. Your UID proves it.

Geekiness is sexy, as long as it's played right.
Uh... why do people hate kdawson so much?
Boring ISTJs and INTJs mod insightful and funny posts to oblivion because they don't understand the meaning of insightful fun.
INTPs and ENTPs are the salt of the earth.

I think you can use your phone's GPRS/3G/HSDPA feature instead.
If you have reputation, you can negotiate for higher pay when you apply for a job. Thus, reputation == money.
Subspace communication.
I disagree. Desktop OS and Server OS do not overlap.
They overlap if you use your server to run Minesweeper and Solitaire.

We just open the page but we don't bother to read it.
Ah, I see. You must not be new here.
* Audio language selection (how do you write code to tell if the guy is speaking in french as opposed to spanish?)
Convert speech to text then use that text to guess the language (i.e., use a tool such as this).
It may be more trouble than it's worth though... :)

Nope, but I was aiming for a troll mod.

Um, I'm not a regular drug user but how are the effects of Cannabis beneficial to gaming?
It blurs the difference between fantasy and reality. The game looks and feels very real under the effects of marijuana.
Looks like a good candidate for failblog.
