You should order everything at the same time. There's no point assembling pieces of an incomplete computer.

Agreed.  Save your money, and by the time you have enough for everything, there's a good chance at least one component will have decreased in price.

So today I asked a girl out...she said yes. Then I won $5 because the Lakers won. I also had really good sushi for dinner. Today was a good day.

1)  Is she hot?;
2)  Lakers suck;
3)  Why the fuck do you never answer my txts?

(I probably won't read this thread for another 3-5 months, so reply if you wish)

Due to a fucked up final play by Jameer Nelson :(.

Lakers won. Woohoo.

My brother's computer was so horridly hosed with viruses that, upon booting into the Welcome Screen, the entire system would hang. It's really impressive. So, boot into safe mode, I found that some DLLs had made their way into every single process that ran. One of them, if anyone is curious to look at it, can be found here: http://newby.dont.backstab.us/misc/welatije.zip

I've never actually given up on trying to repair a computer, but in this case, I was sure I couldn't win. I gave up.

So I decided I'd install Ubuntu on it. That way, they can't *possibly* fuck the thing up. Ubuntu is really nice and easy to get going. And it's super user friendly. The installation process could have gone smoother. I wanted to keep the Windows partition on there, and the option to "install Ubuntu and Windows side-by-side" allotted approximately 2GB to Ubuntu. So I had to go into advanced mode to set it up. But after that, everything installed, the "migration assistant" worked wonders, and even the graphics card works flawlessely.

So yeah, aside from random pieces of software that don't work on the package list, it's pretty slick. And there's even a "guest session" so that my brother's lame ass friends can surf all the porn they want (or whatever it is they do) and they won't break this.

AND I now have a computer I can ssh into and use irssi with. Again! Yes!

(Let's just say it has come a long damn way since I first tried it way back when in 2006 when I had Ubuntu 6.06.)

Wash Biol Surv: myth
Ricky Martin: myth
Dough Boy: myth
Attempted suicide: myth
Lipstick on the mirror: jury's out, but likely a myth
Hydrogen beer: myth

At that point, I got bored of looking things up.. but you can be reasonably sure that those "strange but true stories" are just a collection of urban myths.

(Not that there's anything wrong with that -- I like reading snopes too. I just don't like them being presented as true.)

Most of those are actually completely false.

Haha. We drank 2 30 packs the day back. We still need to hang out buddy!

So apparently I nearly doubled the average on the math final...

I got a 48.5%. The average was about 25%. The highest grade was a 69%.



And with that note, the average grade in the class is a 45%. I have a 43.3%. I am probably going to get a C. Maybe a C- if he's a douche about it. Oh well. Beats failing!

(And lol @ being 12th overall on the final... jesus my class is retarded. Maybe it was my statement "your captain is smoking crack and doesn't know what he's talking about" on #6, where it told me the Captain's orders were to use Green's theorem to find the area inside a parametrized shape.)
