  1. Matlab on Open Source Math Software For Education? · · Score: 1

    After years of doing C/C++ work, I had to take a MATLAB class as part of the freshman engineering cirriculum here at my college. And although I'm slowly being converted to a MATLAB liker, I still think its evil and so is the freshman engineering department behind it. Case in point, the lecture notes for the class cost $6.66. Coincidence? I think not.

  2. Re:A bit of trivia on Area 51 Hackers Map Buried Surveillance Network · · Score: 1

    They may have been stationed at Offut or Roswell or wherever, but they trained at a base somewhere in the desert of Utah near the Great Salt Lake. Got that from a book written by Maj. Gen. Chuck Sweeney, pilot of "Bock's Car", the plane that dropped the bomb over Nagasaki

    Yeah, it was an awesome game. Wasnt there myself, but have a few friends who were. It was a real nailbiter, and the entire game kept me on the edge of my seat. Maybe next year Packers, maybe next year.....

  7. To The Stupid Anonymous Coward Schmuck on Building a Personal Clean Room? · · Score: 1

    You obviously have your head up your ass. This is the year 2002, and last time I checked, every moron, including yourself, mind you, is capable of doing anything they damn well please, INCLUDING building a clean room and kicking the crap out of you. Did I ever state that I wanted a freaking dustproof shelter? No. I just wanted something cool in my basement to impress other people. And for that attack on my knowledge, I'll just let you know that I had COLLEGE ENGINEERING CREDITS @ the age of 16. This is a website about what is going on in the technical world, for geeks, people with to much time on their hands. Even though you have to much time on you hands, you hardly qualify as a geek. If you can't handle the thoughts of others, get the hell out.

  8. I Know It's My Own Post but.... on Building a Personal Clean Room? · · Score: 1

    My major plan is to build a satellite and eventually put it in my living room (encased in some material of course), and eventually get off my butt and launch it. I'm already working on a giant slingshot (old-school Dilbert fans will know what I'm talking about). But hey, I can also use it to build some other crap such as my own bootleg Pentium IV's from my basement!

    3. check back in 30seconds

    if it still works, it's high-performance

  10. Got some funny jokes about the Boeing JSF on Inside the Joint Strike Fighter Competition · · Score: 2, Funny

    My dad works for Lockheed, so he tells me some funny jokes about the Boeing JSF all the time.
    My favorites:
    The only reason that thing flies is b/c it is so ugly the earth repels it
    Lockheed guys gave the X-32 a nickname: Monica (guess why?)

  11. Well... on Convincing Management to Migrate to WiFi? · · Score: 1

    Make sure that u hawk the security offered by WEP. But do not ever let them in on the fact that it can be broken

  12. Just rig up something with LP on Liquid Nitrogen Cooling at Home? · · Score: 1

    With some simple parts from an old fridge, you can use somewhatsafer propane to cool your comp for a low price. You can even rig up some sort of grill to cook some burgers or something, plus mod your case to keep some beer cold and have a BBQ in your PC room

  13. Re:Too complicated... think KISS on Ethernet Wiring Through Hostile Territory? · · Score: 1

    Let me guess where you got this idea from? Clancy's "Sum of All Fears"?
    It is a good idea, but you would first need a way of recording the noise, and building an encryption program that allows the data to be integrated with the noise. Would take time to decrypt, secure as hell, but would take along time to implicate
