<0> i dont think intel still make 486s.. they sold the tech out to other people
<0> i think some hdds have 486s on them
<1> I think my calculator has a 486...
<2> nah intel announced this summer they were keeping the 486 in small prodution till end of next year
<0> heh
<1> Software may be 1,000,000 times less efficient, but productivity is 1,000,000 more efficient.
<0> yeah, but imagine how much better it would be if the software was just as efficient as it used to be
<2> well problem is now that hardware is more powerful people expect much more out of it.. requiring bloat
<3> heh, that would make it 1,000,000,000,000 times better
<0> it was quite amusing, during a networking lecture... my lecturer got pissed off with how inefficient software is
<2> i've seen projects where the error reporting code was on par with the code itself.. b/c users are too stupid these days
<0> and spent half an hour going through the math
<0> and what software was like back in his day
<0> eheh
<0> i already miss university
<2> so go back
<2> :P
<0> !
<0> for now, a 1st cl*** honours BSc will do ;)
<2> hehe
<0> still cant believe my grades
<0> hehehe
<2> are we talking 2-2.5 land?
<0> http://school.shallax.com/uniexamsyr3.html
<2> wow
<0> hehe
<2> go you
<1> Gotta balance efficiency, usability, and simplicity.
<0> :D
<1> Software may have been "more efficient" ages ago, but it's far better today.
<0> if you want simplicity you should pay in bloat and performance hit
<2> ShALLaX.. lemmie guess you spend all day in your dorm room and have no social life?
<0> ^aSe^: I live at home ;)
<0> but youre essentially right
<2> ah okay so no life
<2> :P
<0> heh, between my job and university.. i didnt get out much
<0> but i had my girlfriend here
<0> so meh..
<0> ****
<0> just realised...
<0> ive only got 1 non a grade
<0> hehe
<0> i must have really screwed up that exam :s
<0> http://school.shallax.com/uniexamsyr1.html
<4> ok so why after emeging rxvt-unicode, I type rxvt and says command not found
<0> try rxvt-unicode ?
<0> look at emerge while its working
<0> itll show what bin files it installs
<4> its not rxvt-unicode
<4> I cant scoll up enough
<4> srcoll
<0> emerge it again
<0> and look
<1> That's from 2004... and you just noticed? O_o
<0> yeah
<0> i didnt really keep track
<0> i only just compiled those pages
<0> heh
<1> Heh
<4> oh, it was urxvt
<1> Understandable... I don't remember half the grades I got.
<1> Well, except for an F in keyboarding
<1> But that's only because of how big of a joke it was
<0> keyboarding exam.. wtf?
<0> heh
<3> If it was such a joke, how did you get an F?
<0> id refuse to do it
<0> hehe
<0> thats how id get an F ;)
<3> hah
<1> 'cause I said "**** this" after typing 2 lines of "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog"
<1> ... and forgot to drop the course.
<3> I would take the exam the first day and **** around the rest of hte year.
<0> rofl eic
<3> hah
<0> nah.. during the ***essment, dont type what it tells you to just type "stfu, bitch" over and over
<0> "AM I DOING THSI RITE?!?!"
<1> LOL
<3> i tipe reel gud
<0> me fail english? thats unpossible!
<3> hah
<1> Ugh, I hated all those first year courses.
<1> It's like college for retards.
<0> hehe
<0> http://school.shallax.com/tt.html
<3> When i started, tehy wanted me to start at computer basics.
<0> thats the stuff i did in HS
<3> How to type and use MS office
<1> "... and today you'll learn about the comma"
<3> I said **** that, can I do AP Java
<0> you know, half the year doing CS thought it was going to be about how to use MS word
<0> in my year...
<1> Yeah, I had to take that cl*** too, ShALLaX.
<0> i didnt take any such cl***
<1> Lucky
<0> im just saying, the first lecture was like converting denery to hex and such
<0> and everyone nearly **** themselves
<0> hehe
<1> There was a crazy old guy that would get pissed at stupid stuff, so we just pushed his buttons the whole quarter. Ended up keeping us amused, at least.
<0> heheh
<0> always fun
<0> god, i brought a green laser pen into a lecture once
<1> He actually tried to kick me one day.
<0> the lecturer nearly beat me up :s
<0> hjahahah
<1> hehe
<1> Those are always fun.
<1> Especially when they don't know about them, and people start laughing.
<0> he was like "Would the person.. NO.. THE IDIOT WITH THE LASER PEN STOP!"
<1> LOL
<0> just because he couldnt afford one :(
<3> He is a teacher, what would you expect?
<0> ;)
<0> they all striked this year
<0> not enough pay
<0> so we bitchslapped them, and they started marking our exams again
<1> You gotta love when people who only work 3/4's of the year go on strike.
<5> hahaha
<5> makes you wonder how much they really care for the kids and your education when they do that
<1> Yeah, huh.
<0> well, they bitched that they get paid less than regular school teachers
<0> but, come on.. would you rather work in a university
<0> or with some bratty kids
<1> Depends, I suppose.
<1> I have a cousin in Hawaii who is in highschool
<1> One of his teachers will just skip cl***, and go out to his van and smoke a bowl
<1> Then, depending on what he feels like doing, either goes back and teaches baked, or goes surfing
<0> rofl eic
<1> Oh, and his principal was just fired, because he used to make the special-ed kids detail his car
<1> Crazy system they've got over there
<0> ;o
<1> Are there any free shell accounts out there for IRC?
<1> Hmm, efnet doesn't allow Tor'ified connections, does it?
<2> open proxies lead to abuse
<2> pick a server that doesn't care if identd is running and u might find an ip that isn't banned
<1> Good call
<6> free shell accounts == ask a friend
<1> I have no friends. That's why I'm here.
<6> sorry, we just eat your soul - for friends, sign up for orkut
<6> or maybe livejournal and myspace
<6> groupies frequent there every so often
<2> eh
<6> where's my coffee @
<2> just don't say anything stupid on those places
<2> it'll haunt you for life
<1> Actually, my friends are just computer illiterate
<2> eic.. what are they 80 years old?
<6> oh, so _NOW_ you have friends?
<6> :P
<1> Nah, not senior citizen computer illiterate.
