<0> it's been a while since I've done anything dealing with electronics
<0> i think the "best" thing i made was this sin wave generator from a kit
<0> :)
<1> "refresh rate = 60hz" = "refresh rate = 60 times per second" = "60 refreshes per second"
<2> :D
<0> then read it on an oscilliscope
<0> so yeah i was like 13
<2> :)
<0> XD
<0> oh, but i gots a job now
<0> haha
<0> so i can pay for mah habbit
<0> anyway whats up with all of you
<0> lol
<2> How'd you get an oscillator at the age of 13
<2> er
<1> heh
<2> oscilloscope
<0> JBlitzen yeah, it's my dads lol
<2> Cool
<0> we still got it but nobody really uses it anymore
<2> What's he do?
<0> DB Administrator etc
<0> he had it because a while ago he used to work in a lab and make his own um, monitor thingies
<0> i forget exactly what they were called
<0> for hospitals
<0> i'm ignorant in all of that
<0> &_&
<2> :)
<0> hrm, so i get to work in this nuclear physics lab now
<0> i'm pretty excited
<2> Outstanding
<0> haha
<2> What kind of research do you do
<0> i do nothing much
<0> i dunno honestly
<0> i'm a "research ***istant"
<0> just got hired friday
<0> hopefully computer modeling though
<0> to help plan experiments
<2> What kind of research do they do?
<0> and all that
<0> uhm, one sec i'll link you
<0> JBlitzen some of the links are dead
<0> http://cc.ysu.edu/~jjcarrol/np.html
<0> I work for Dr Carrol
<0> 6.50 an hour
<0> 20 hours a week
<0> and good looking for grad school
<2> What's your degree in?
<0> physics
<2> Did you graduate, or when do you
<0> when
<0> roughly 3.5 years
<2> Oh, freshman?
<0> yeah
<2> Sounds like a good deal, then
<2> Congratulations :D
<0> thanks lol
<2> I'm getting used to this monitor
<2> I really don't understand why it feels different than the last one
<0> the LCD or the CRT?
<2> LCD
<0> i like LCD
<0> it's much nicer on my eyes
<0> ^_^
<0> isn't LCD supposed to be better/safer as well?
<2> Not really sure
<3> safer to work on
<3> as in repair
<0> oh
<0> haha
<0> not better for me?
<3> dunno
<3> but CRTs are dangerous to service
<3> you have to discharge it
<3> if you don't, and you reach across the back, that could be it..
<4> who cares enough to service hardware that's outdated..
<2> khan regularly discharges on his monitor
<3> hehehe
<4> usually your friend/neighbour had a extremely much better screen so you are forced to switch
<0> is that so
<0> lol
<0> i just got LCD because it was like 100 in this DELL deal
<3> considering hardware is outdated in like 6 months or less, most people still care about outdated hardware
<4> cn28h: outdated as in a few years
<0> haha
<0> i've had my box for like 3 years
<3> I just bought a machine that was made in 1998
<0> almost 4
<0> i like it still
<3> (if I had the money to buy a new one, I would buy a car)
<0> lol
<0> i don't need a car yet :)
<0> i'm gonna hold off on that
<0> money sink for sure
<3> I don't *need* it yet, but it would be nice
<0> haha
<3> heh
<0> or is it porche
<0> hrm
<0> over the top :)
<3> I just need something that would actually run, and be able to get me to and from school
<3> (home is about an 8 hour drive away)
<0> used toyota?
<3> I don't really care what it is
<0> hrm i'm just saying, both toyota's we've had lasted at least 10 years and 200k miles
<3> my family usually buys from GM companies
<3> we still have an '87 Astro
<3> heheh
<0> cool
<0> sounds like they work too. you like GM's push for ethanol fuel cars?
<3> I don't have anything against the idea
<0> haha
<3> I don't really care if my car can go 110
<3> I'll never go that fast anyway
<5> it's rather exciting
<0> lol 110?
<0> i'm not about to go that fast either cn28h
<4> 110kmh?
<3> mph
<4> that's not fast..
<4> ah
<4> :)
<4> that's pretty fast
<0> haha
<3> yes
<4> around 190kmh..
<0> haha
<0> why do we in the US still use ****ing english units :(
<0> it's makes things confusing
<5> because people don't want to change, and I agree, it's kinda silly
<3> the main complaint I've heard about ethanol is that it reduces power of the engine
<0> cn28h i dunno
<5> there is less energy per litre than in gasoline, that's clear
<0> vawjr i guess I just like to be able to divide or multiply everything by a factor of 10 to convert
<0> cn28h it's a much smaller carbon chain
<0> i think that is why
<5> sb_ I was suggesting it's silly to NOT change
<0> vawjr haha ok
<0> ^_^
<5> yes, c2h6 is small
<5> err, C2H6
