  1. Way to look like a powerbook, thinkpad on IBM Thinkpads now in Titanium · · Score: 2, Informative

    http://www.ibmuser.idv.tw/viewtopic.php?t=19990 I'll always think the real deal is sexier. I [heart] my Thinkpad.

  2. Re:Of course we do on The Venus Transit 2004 · · Score: 3, Funny

    Hey, Venus is the goddess of love. Maybe that'll help some people get lucky...

  3. Re:Try again? on Delorean Time Machine Replica Up For Auction · · Score: 3, Funny

    Funny, I would have thought you'd already know the answer to that if you could do as you claim. Hmph. (I think we know the answer here)

  4. Re:Try again? on Delorean Time Machine Replica Up For Auction · · Score: 5, Funny

    Speaking as a chick...if you've got the ability to travel back through time, let me tell you: you are hot. Dead sexy, even. Alas, replicas just don't do it for me. But it's still pretty cute...

  5. Re:Its called the "Lazy" gene. on Working with ADHD? · · Score: 5, Informative

    /If you can find one person with it who actually thought school was fun but couldnt concentrate in class, well then I'll believe you. /

    Me. I've just been diagnosed with ADHD, and I loved school. Hell, I loved school so much I did pretty well, and ended up at MIT...and before you say I liked high school with ADHD because I managed to do really well (unlike most high school students with ADHD) then I'd point out I'm having a ridiculously hard time with MIT...but I still love it there.

    So there. It's not a "lazy gene", nor necessarily even a disability. It's just a different way of absorbing information.

  6. Re:slashdotted women on Some Geek Guides for Dating · · Score: 1

    ::sigh:: i DID get slashdotted, and no one has asked me on a date. oh the irony, to have your dating guide /.ed and be alone with pjs and a cup of tea on valentine's day... - amy sarah

  7. fortran for other purposes on Is FORTRAN Still Kicking? · · Score: 1

    I started to work for an environmental engineering lab where my boss promptly put me to work debugging her (not too old) F90 code. She told me that a lot of the non-eecs engineers stuck to learning that for simple data-sampling-and-storing models, because it was simple to learn. If anything, learn Fortran if you're faced with it (or better - learn it, so you can translate to C/C++), but otherwise, it's pointless. Especially when there's very little available today to even learn the language...
