General Discussion / Possibly in Phoenix (3/15 -- 3/19)
« on: January 22, 2010, 11:53:04 am »
It looks like I'm either staying in Colorado or going to Phoenix for my spring break (March 15 -- 19), depending on how much tickets are.
My gf has a math conference there, so she'll probably be occupied most of the day. If anyone is in the Phoenix area and wants to hang out that week, let me know, and I'll think harder about going.

Entertainment District / World Builder (Cool video)

This was featured on youtube yesterday:

I'd categorize it as an "artistic short film", so if you're not into that, you probably won't like it. It has some pretty neat special effects (it's futuristic) given the scale of it, and the story is pretty cool too.

A new video from Jon Lajoie:

Quite a deep observation, I think.

General Programming / Runtime Analysis.... kind of.
« on: March 05, 2009, 11:01:32 am »Yeah, same. It's to learn how the stuff works, not how to use things properly. It's the same as the old "implement a bubble sort" thing.Why in the world are you using a spin lock here? I sure hope lock contention is low or the critical section is trivial.I would guess it's for school. (I had much worse assignments in my operating systems class).
Bubble sort is hardcore, but it's not quite as badass as stooge sort. It has O(n^( log(3) / log(1.5) )), which is O(2.709...) running time!

Does anyone have a Google Apps account? My university recently switched to using it, and I'm having some trouble getting IMAP working.

General Discussion / Help me pick my OSes.
« on: January 20, 2009, 07:30:02 pm »
So I've ordered a data hard drive, and I'd like to redo the operating systems on my desktop before classes start getting too sticky.
1) Which version of Windows should I use?
I'm unsure how often I'll be using Windows, but I'd like to have a working copy of it running my desktop just in case. I've heard Microsoft likes to do phone interviews using some Windows products.
I'm not very fond of Vista, but if someone gives me an adequate reason to stick with it, I will. I'm looking at XP or Windows7. The fact that the Win7 beta runs out in August doesn't matter to me. I'll likely redo Windows after summer starts anyway.
2) Which Linux distribution should I use?
I used Ubuntu last year, and really liked it. However, it seems that 8.04 is way less stable than 7.10 was. I'm leaning towards just going with Feisty again, but if any of you have had great experiences with other distributions, I'd love to hear your recommendations. I'm also considering Fedora.
I don't really want to experiment with unfamiliar territory at this point. I'd love to give the BSD family and other flavors of non-Windows OSes a try, but I just don't want to deal with it at this point. Any free time I have will probably not be spent tinkering with OSes, hehe.

Entertainment District / [NSFW] Text based game
« on: January 15, 2009, 04:44:49 pm »
There aren't any pictures here, but the language is definitely NSFW, lol.
Type start and hit 'Enter' or 'Return' to start.
Welcome to the Trapped in the Cupboard, a text adventure game.
Type help at any time to learn the game commands.
You are trapped in a cupboard.
> move
Sorry, I don't understand that command.
> kick
Sorry, I don't understand that command.
> Escape
Sorry, I don't understand that command.
> take out beretta
BONUS: Your score is now 1.
Good thinking! You pull out your Beretta.
> open cupboard
BONUS: Your score is now 2.
How astute. You open the cupboard and step out.
You're in the bedroom of a Chicago apartment. There is a door to your east.
Through a window you can see that it's a lovely spring day.
There is a dildo lying on the bed.
> take dildo
BONUS: Your score is now 3.
Free dildo? How could you NOT take it? You shove it in your pants.
> use dildo
You slowly insert the dildo into your anus. At first it hurts, but you soon begin to enjoy it. As it slides in deeper into your rectum, you feel a distinct pressure you've never felt before. Thinking you've finally found your anal G-spot, you violently thrust the dildo towards your lower intestine. Just as you're about to climax, you hear a "clink" sound. You look down to see a key on the floor.
The pressure is suddenly gone. And you now have a key. Congratulations, homo.
BONUS: Your score is now 5.
> east
The living room is especially spacious. There is a door to the bedroom to the west.
There is another door to your east.
There is a walnut here.
> talk to walnut
'Hi, I'm a walnut. What's going on?'
> not much
'Cool.'
That walnut is a surprisingly cool guy.
BONUS: Your score is now 6.
> sleep
Zzzzz...you have a wonderful dream where R. Kelly is peeing on you. So warm, so liquidy.
> unlock door
BONUS: Your score is now 7.
You insert the shit-covered key into the tight little keyhole. You turn it ever so slowly.
The door unlocks.
> east
You are in the hallway of an apartment building. There's an elevator to the south.
There's a button on the wall.
> push button
BONUS: Your score is now 8.
You push the button and you're amazed when it lights up.
A few seconds later you hear a "ding" noise and the elevator opens.
> south
You enter the elevator.
You wait while the elevator descends. R. Kelly is in here wearing a white suit.
He says, 'Hey.'
> dickshot
You aim your Beretta at R. Kelly's large, black balls and squeeze the trigger like your life depended on it. There's a fireworks-like explosion of urine, semen and blood. The multicolored liquid splatters every surface of the elevator like a Jackson Pollock painting. It is perhaps the most beautiful sight ever known to man.
BONUS: Your score is now 13.
Congratulations! You are no longer Trapped in the Cupboard.
You have finished the game!
Congratulations, you got a perfect score!
